How Destiny by the Sea is trading
6 homes closed in Destiny by the Sea in the trailing 12 months at a median of $1,775,000, with a 91.9% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 5 of 8 listings sit below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 16.0 months of supply at the current sales pace.
Destiny by the Sea's statistics run on very few, very large transactions, so the honest way to read them is one closing at a time: a single sale can carry a year's median, and a quiet stretch says more about owners holding than about demand. The neighborhood prices on more than one ladder, and a sale that moves between rungs from one reporting period to the next will look like a market move when it is only a mix change. Days-on-market here rewards patience arithmetic: large custom homes meet a narrow buyer pool, and long listing periods are the category's normal rhythm, not a discount signal by themselves.
Year-over-year figures compare the 12 complete calendar months from September 2025 through August 2026 with the 12 before them. That window can differ from the trailing totals above, which run day-precise through September 27, 2026 rather than by whole calendar months.

Where do these numbers come from?
Sale and inventory statistics are computed from ECAR MLS data by Dream Destin Realty and refreshed on a 30-day cycle. Based on information from ECAR for the period September 28, 2021 through September 27, 2026.
Why is there no list of individual sold homes?
6 homes closed in Destiny by the Sea in the trailing 12 months, from $1,175,000 to $12,100,000. MLS rules do not allow individual sold listings to be displayed publicly, so this page shows area-level statistics only - ask us for the street-by-street sold review and we'll walk you through it.
How are thin samples handled?
Any figure computed from fewer than three sales is withheld rather than published - a one-sale “median” is just that sale's price. Counts always show; prices earn their way onto the page.
