How the building is trading
Fewer than three units closed here in the trailing 12 months - too thin a sample to publish reliable statistics. Ask us for a hand-built sales review instead.
The seven commercial parcels are the fact to hold onto when comparing anything here. A building where non-residential space is separately titled has a governance and cost structure that a purely residential neighbor does not, and that reaches the budget, the insurance program and what an association can and cannot decide by itself. On the residential side the county records one construction year across every parcel, so what separates two similar residences is level, orientation and how much has been renewed since. Flood mapping divides the ground in two: a velocity zone at a base flood elevation of 15 feet, inside the special flood hazard area, and zone X outside it. What the county file cannot do is put a particular residence on one side of that line, because it draws every unit parcel here with the same outline as the whole property; the elevation certificate for a specific unit is the document that answers it. Ask for that certificate, and ask which comparable closings carried which designation, before you weigh any insurance figure drawn from the property as a whole.

The rental analysis is for signed-in readers
We publish each home's rental analysis on the signed-in side of the site, not on the open page. With a free account you will find, on the individual listings here that qualify, how rentals similar to that home perform: the average daily rate, occupancy, typical stay and booking window. The segment's daily rate, occupancy and tracked-rental count stay public on this page.

These are benchmarks for a segment of comparable rentals, not a finding about Inn at Crystal Beach. What a unit here may actually do is set by documents, and there are three of them. The recorded declaration sets any minimum lease term. The association's current rules can add stay-length minimums, rental caps, or owner-occupancy requirements the local code does not impose, and a board can change them after a purchase. The city or county that governs this address runs its own short-term-rental registration requirements over both. Request all three in their current form from the association and the local government during diligence, before purchasing with rental income in mind.

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 23, 2021 through September 22, 2026. Rental benchmarks are market-segment aggregates from Key Data - never figures for a specific unit. Neighborhood figures are LiveBy area estimates built on the U.S. Census American Community Survey.
Why is there no list of individual sold units?
2 units closed at Inn at Crystal Beach in the trailing 12 months. MLS rules do not allow individual sold listings to be displayed publicly, so this page shows building-level statistics only - ask us for the unit-by-unitsold report 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.
