- Not one of the 2001 buyers whose home has since resold lost money: the building had 23 qualified sales in 2001, on 20 of its 25 homes, at a median $347,000, or $263 per square foot. Twenty-one of those 23 purchases have since been followed by a resale, all of them at a gain, at a median of +45.7%.
- Across the whole record the loss rate is 8.3%: five of 60 resales, at a median gain of 35.1% over a 3.0-year hold, drawn from a deep sample for a 25-home building (85 qualified sales).
- One home sold twice inside seven months, 85.5% apart — unit 416 changed hands on 29 August 2024 for $806,000 and again on 2 March 2025 for $1,495,000. Same 1,485 sq ft home, $543 and $1,007 per square foot.
- Four qualified sales in four years, and none in 2026 — about one home in 25 a year. No four-year change is published for this building.
- Every folio at this address is a home — 25 of them, from 940 to 2,425 sq ft, with 10 two-bedrooms, 10 three-bedrooms and five four-bedrooms. No parking, cabana, storage or commercial unit is filed separately.

What is actually in the building
The county returns 25 folios for 145 Jefferson Avenue, and every one of them is a home. There is no reference folio, no commercial unit, and no separately deeded parking, cabana or storage.
The homes run from 940 sq ft to 2,425 sq ft, median 1,485. Nine of them share the 1,485 sq ft plan, with four each at 1,155 and 1,308 and three at 2,425. The bedroom mix is 10 two-bedrooms, 10 three-bedrooms and five four-bedrooms — a large-home mix for a building of this size, with no one-bedrooms or studios.
For 2026 the county assesses the homes between $536,251 and $1,706,704, median $966,179.
Twenty-one resales of 2001 purchases, twenty-one gains
Most of what is interesting about this building is in its ownership record rather than its recent prices, and the ownership record is unusually deep for a 25-home address.
The Courts sold through in 2001: 23 qualified sales, on 20 of the 25 homes (four homes sold twice that year), at a median $347,000, or $263 per square foot. Of those 23 purchases, 21 have since been followed by a resale. Every single one sold for more than was paid, at a median gain of 45.7%.
That is a clean sweep. I have found it twice more in this index — at Terra Beachside Villas, where 55 of the 2010–11 conversion buyers resold without a single loss, and at Ocean House, on eight resales. For comparison, the equivalent figures elsewhere run from 3.6% to 81.8% of original buyers underwater.
The wider record is nearly as good. The county shows 60 resales at this address — a large number for 25 homes, and a sign of how much this building has traded over twenty-five years. Five of them lost money: 8.3%, at a median gain across all 60 of 35.1% over a 3.0-year hold. The median loss among the five was 12.0% and the worst was 35.0%.
One pair inside that record deserves naming, because a buyer or a valuer will find it and need to understand it. Unit 416, a 1,485 sq ft three-bedroom, sold on 29 August 2024 for $806,000 — $543 per square foot — and again on 2 March 2025 for $1,495,000, or $1,007 per square foot. That is 85.5% in a little over six months.
I am not going to tell you what happened between those two dates; the county records transactions, not reasons, and a renovation, a below-market first sale or something else entirely would all look identical here. What I will say is that the $543 figure is the lowest per-foot price the building has recorded in four years and the $1,007 is the highest, and that both were the same home in the same year. If either number is quoted at you as a comparable, the other one belongs in the same sentence.
The price record
| Year | Qualified sales | Median price | Median $/sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 2 | $1,432,500 | $810 |
| 2024 | 1 | $806,000 | $543 |
| 2025 | 1 | $1,495,000 | $1,007 |
| 2026 to date | No qualified sales | ||
Four qualified sales in four years, and nothing at all in 2026. No four-year change is published for this building and it carries a dash in my Miami Condo Index. The 2024 and 2025 rows are single transactions — and, as the previous section explains, they are the same home, which is why the table appears to show the building halving and then doubling.
Across the four sales the building cleared a median $810 per square foot, in a band from $543 to $1,007, at a median price of $1,230,000. I would treat the two 2023 sales — $835 and $784 per square foot — as the most representative evidence the last four years contain, because they are the only two transactions in the window that are not the same home twice.
Turnover is one home in 25 a year, close to the Miami Condo Index median of one home in 23 and, in a 25-home building, amounting to one sale a year.
The record is $2,010,000, paid on 8 September 2021 for a 2,425 sq ft home — $829 per square foot. The building’s highest price per square foot is $1,007, the March 2025 sale of unit 416 described above.
Who this building suits, and who it does not
It suits a buyer who wants a three- or four-bedroom in South of Fifth in a building of 25 rather than 250. Fifteen of the homes here are three- or four-bedrooms and the median home is 1,485 sq ft, which is a lot of space for this part of Miami Beach.
It suits a buyer who takes the long view. The ownership record here (60 resales, five losses, a clean sweep for the 2001 purchases) is built on twenty-five years of transactions rather than a handful.
It suits badly anyone who needs current evidence. Four sales in four years, none in 2026, and two of the four are the same home. There is very little to price against.
It suits badly a buyer relying on an automated valuation. A building whose last two recorded prices are $543 and $1,007 per square foot for the identical home will defeat any model that has not read the deed dates.
If you are selling here, the strongest material you have is historical rather than recent, and it is genuinely strong: 60 resales, five losses, a median gain of 35.1%, and not one of the 21 resales that followed a 2001 purchase was at a loss. On price, use the 2023 pair at $784 and $835 per square foot as your baseline and the March 2025 sale at $1,007 as the ceiling — and be ready to explain the $543 print from August 2024, because it is the same home as the $1,007 and it will be found.

The Courts at South Beach — Frequently Asked Questions
What have homes at The Courts Miami Beach sold for in the last 12 months?
None: no sale was recorded on the Miami-Dade County Property Appraiser record in the 12 months to 23 September 2026. The latest recorded sale was on 2 March 2025. With no recent closings, a price for a specific home depends on its line, floor and condition. If you own at The Courts Miami Beach, message Josh Stein on WhatsApp at (305) 695-8257.
Have owners at The Courts at South Beach made money?
Almost all of them. The county records 60 resales at this address, of which five lost money (8.3%), at a median gain of 35.1% over a 3.0-year hold. Of the 21 purchases made in 2001 that have since been resold, every single one was resold at a gain, at a median of +45.7%.
How much does a home at The Courts sell for?
Across the four qualified sales in the four years to September 2026 the building cleared a median $810 per square foot, in a band from $543 to $1,007, at a median price of $1,230,000. The two 2023 sales, at $784 and $835 per square foot, are the most representative evidence in the window.
Why do the 2024 and 2025 figures look so different?
Because they are the same home. Unit 416, a 1,485 sq ft three-bedroom, sold on 29 August 2024 for $806,000 — $543 per square foot — and again on 2 March 2025 for $1,495,000, or $1,007. That is 85.5% in a little over six months. The county records transactions, not reasons, so I will not speculate about what happened in between; but neither figure should be used without the other.
How big are the homes at The Courts?
From 940 sq ft to 2,425 sq ft, median 1,485, with no one-bedrooms or studios. The mix is 10 two-bedrooms, 10 three-bedrooms and five four-bedrooms, and nine of the 25 homes share the 1,485 sq ft plan.
How often do homes at The Courts change hands?
The county records four qualified sales in the four years to September 2026 against 25 homes, about one home in 25 a year, close to the Miami Condo Index median of one in 23. In a 25-home building that is roughly one sale a year, and 2026 has had none.
What is the highest price ever paid at The Courts?
$2,010,000, on 8 September 2021, for a 2,425 sq ft home — $829 per square foot. The building’s highest price per square foot is $1,007, from the March 2025 sale of unit 416.
Have prices at The Courts gone up or down?
The record cannot say. There have been four qualified sales in four years, none in 2026, and two of the four were the same home. No four-year change is published and the building carries a dash in my Miami Condo Index.
