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.
Jade East Towers trades as one building with five repeating stacks, and that schedule shapes everything. Four of the five are three bedroom and nearly identical in size, so most sales fall into a single wide comparable pool where floor height and exposure, rather than plan type, carry the price difference. The two bedroom Center stack is the only smaller plan and prices on its own track. Three penthouses form a stratum too thin to average against anything beneath them. Demand draws on both ends of the calendar, since the recorded declaration's use restriction contemplates occupancy that is either permanent or transient, though that is the declaration as recorded rather than a statement of the rule operating today, putting second-home and year-round buyers into the same inventory.

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 Jade East Towers. 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.
Rental rules on the MLS today: 2 of 2 active listings disclose“Short Term Rental - Allowed”. Always verify the association's current policy.

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?
1 unit closed at Jade East Towers 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.
