Fort Lauderdale Real Estate: Homes, Condos and Waterfront Living
Fort Lauderdale is the largest city in Broward County, with about 183,000 residents at the 2020 census, and its inland waterways (the city is known as the "Venice of America") are a big part of why the market is so varied. One search can turn up a high-rise condo on the beach, a canal-front house with room for a boat, a new townhome near downtown, and a 1950s ranch on a quiet inland street.
The market right now
As of late October 2026, about 2,800 properties are listed for sale in Fort Lauderdale: roughly 1,370 condos, 840 single-family homes and 185 townhomes, plus land and multi-unit properties. About 1,000 of the listings are on the water. Prices cover an unusually wide range: condos start under $100,000 and run past $20 million, townhomes run from roughly $225,000 to $4.3 million, and single-family homes start around $125,000 with luxury waterfront estates far above that. Because a few ultra-luxury listings skew any "average", I have left averages out; the fastest way to see what your budget buys is to browse by price range below.
