The Broward Median Asking Price Is $380,000. It Describes a 1,207 Square Foot Home.

Broward County's median asking price was $380,000 in August 2026. The median home behind that number measured 1,207 square feet.

The August Figures, in One Place

Realtor.com publishes monthly county figures, hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Here is Broward County for August 2026.

• Median asking price: $380,000
• Median asking price per square foot: $302
• Median home size among homes on the market: 1,207 square feet
• Price per square foot, year over year: down 3.15%
• Home size, year over year: down 1.95%

All five are countywide. August 2026 is the most recent month published for all five.

A Median Is a Middle, Not a Price

Buyers read the median as a price for a house. It is not a price for any house.

The median sits in the middle of every home on the Broward market. That market is the whole county, not your street. A 1,207 square foot median tells you where the middle of that range falls. It does not describe a waterfront home in Fort Lauderdale.

The second figure is the one that travels. Price per square foot ran $302 countywide in August.

Why Price Per Square Foot Travels Better

Price per square foot does one useful thing. It separates what a home costs from how large it is.

• It lets you compare a 2,400 square foot home to a 4,000 square foot home.
• It moves with condition, finish level and location rather than with floor area.
• It gives you a number you can carry from one block to the next.
• It stops working when the two homes are not comparable.

That last point matters most. A per-square-foot figure is only as good as the homes behind it.

What These Figures Cannot Tell You

We are not going to break the Broward median down by property type in this post. The county series does not publish that split. A 1,207 square foot median invites a guess about what sits behind it. A guess is not a figure.

A second limit is worth stating. The median asking price and the median price per square foot are two separate medians. Dividing one by the other does not give you either.

What to Ask For Instead

A countywide median is not a tool for pricing one home. These are.

• A per-square-foot range for homes comparable to yours, drawn from your own neighborhood.
• The date on every figure you are handed. August data is not October data.
• The size of each home behind each number.
• The condition and finish level of each one.
• Waterfront status and dockage, which the countywide figures do not separate out.

Ask for those five and the countywide median stops mattering. You will be looking at your own home instead.
