How the building is trading

28 units closed at Silver Shells Beach Resort in the trailing 12 months at a median of $1,223,500, with a 93.8% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 3 of 7 listings sit below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 3.0 months of supply at the current sales pace.

Silver Shells is less one market than several sharing a campus. The county dates its five towers across six years, from 1999 to 2005, so construction vintage alone separates one address here from another before anything else enters the read. Rental treatment is uneven as well: the resort books stays directly while a second manager's published program reaches four of the towers, which means a residence inside that program and one outside it answer to different buyers. Read any sale against its own tower first, because a blended resort median mostly records which tower happened to trade that quarter.

The monthly charts cover the 24 complete calendar months from September 2024 through August 2026, and a month with no closings is a zero bar rather than a gap. Their last 12 months are the window the year-over-year figures compare.

Based on information from ECAR for the period September 23, 2021 through September 22, 2026.

Short-term rental permission varies here

The building guide for Silver Shells Beach Resort reports short-term rental permission as tower by tower rather than resort wide, so we publish no nightly-rental performance benchmarks for this building: one building-wide range would speak for towers that do not share an answer. That reporting covers short stays only, and says nothing either way about longer tenancy. The recorded declaration is what sets any minimum lease term, so read it, and confirm the association's current rental policy directly, before purchasing with rental income in mind.

Rental rules on the MLS today: 7 of 7 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.

Why is there no list of individual sold units?

28 units closed at Silver Shells Beach Resort in the trailing 12 months, from $500,000 to $2,800,000. 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.
