September 2026 numbers are based on MLS data for closings September 1–30, 2026 (September 1–30, 2025 for comparison), retrieved in November 2026. Cities are defined by the County municipal code recorded with each sale. Data is entered in the MLS by listing agents; it is deemed reliable but not guaranteed and may contain errors. Includes all brokerages’ sales, not only ours.
Based on information from the Southeast Florida Multiple Listing Service (SEFMLS) / MIAMI Association of REALTORS® for the period September 1–30, 2026, retrieved in November 2026; compiled by The Fragomeno Group, not by the MLS.
The gap compares the final sale price, less seller credits, with the original list price. Includes sales that closed with no days on market. Past sales do not predict the price of any home. Coconut Grove here means single-family homes in zip 33133 within the City of Miami, excluding the Silver Bluff plats, which are counted in the Shenandoah & Silver Bluff card so that each home is counted once; the condo card covers all condos in zip 33133 and its county comparison is all Miami-Dade condos. With 13 single-family sales and 17 condo sales, a few homes can move the figures.
That is what Coconut Grove homes sold for last month. Here is how Coconut Grove got here.

NOW / WHAT’S HAPPENING
News reports, not our transactions; The Fragomeno Group was not involved. Prices as reported. Listings are asking prices, not sales.
LAST CHECKED: NOVEMBER 6, 2026 · NEWS COVERAGE AND PUBLISHED OFFICIAL PAGES, AUG 7 – NOV 5; PROJECTS, LAST 36 MONTHS. ITEMS MARKED “REPORTED” COME FROM NEWS COVERAGE. COUNCIL AND COMMISSION ACTIONS ARE DRAWN FROM PUBLISHED REPORTS AND PUBLIC POSTINGS.
SCHOOLS & COLLEGES
Schools are listed by name, as the sources below describe them. We do not rate or rank schools. Public school assignment depends on your address, so confirm it with the district. The Florida Department of Education says it does not verify the data private schools submit, and a listing is not an approval.
The elementary school page is the district’s 2024–25 document. Middle and high school zones depend on the address, so we do not name them. Ransom Everglades’ two campuses and the other private school details come from the schools’ own pages where linked and from directories otherwise.
Private schools within about five miles are included because many families drive to school and work across city lines. Distances are measured from the center of the neighborhood, using the Miami-Dade County municipal boundary map and each school’s street address. The private schools were chosen from Niche’s list of top private schools in Miami-Dade County and are shown in no particular order. Catholic parish schools also come from the Archdiocese of Miami’s Catholic Schools Directory. A listing is not a recommendation, ranking or endorsement; check each school’s own site for current grades and admissions.

To see which public school serves an address, use the school locator and enrollment information on the Miami-Dade County Public Schools site. Third-party school ratings and reviews also exist, for example Niche and GreatSchools. We do not produce, endorse or verify them, and they are not a substitute for visiting a school and checking with the district.
