3 units in the record sit outside this grid (LD, LE, LF): penthouse, townhouse or ground-level numbers, or lines seen only once or twice.

How this is drawn: a unit's floor and line come from its MLS unit number alone (5614 is floor 56, line 14). A cell exists only where the MLS has recorded a listing, a closing or a lease; a blank means no record was seen, not that no unit exists. Column widths follow each line's median recorded living area. Pre-construction towers and buildings with a thin record have no drawing.

Read the full record 4 paragraphs and 10 facts, every figure from the MLS and county record

Completed in 1967, Island Terrace stands 16 stories at 5 Island Ave in South Beach. County folio records count 138 residences, averaging 1,045 SF of living area.

Five units were for sale on November 2, 2026, asking $400K to $950K (median ask $483/SF across 5 listings). Four sales closed between November 2, 2025 and November 2, 2026, from $440K to $679K, a median $515/SF, after a median 66 days on the market. In the 12 months before that, five sales closed at a median $651/SF, so the median fell 21%. Across 56 recorded sales since 2019, the best year by median price per square foot was 2024, at $695 over 6 sales. That 12-month median ranks 59th of the 83 South Beach buildings with at least three sales in the same window. One-bedrooms made up six of the 9 sales in the last 24 months, at a median $470,625.

One unit was offered for rent at $3,450 a month. 10 leases were signed over the same 12 months, at a median $3,763 a month (range $2,850 to $7,150). Leases outnumbered sales 3 to 1 over that year, so renters are a large share of who lives here.

County records show 58% of residences as owner-occupied.

FEMA flood zone

AE

Inside FEMA's Special Flood Hazard Area. A federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance here.

What the zone means
  • The 1% annual chance ("100-year") flood area, with a base flood elevation set.
  • Base flood elevation 9 ft (NGVD29).
  • The zone is a map line, not a premium. Ask the association for its master flood policy, and get a flood quote for the specific unit before you commit.

Milestone structural inspection

Turned 30 in 1997

The statute's first deadline for a building this age was December 31, 2024, then every 10 years.

What the deadline means
  • Based on year built 1967 (county record). The statute counts from the certificate of occupancy date, which can differ.
  • The association must give every owner the inspector's summary. Ask for it, and for the structural integrity reserve study, before you commit.

Fla. Stat. § 553.899(3) ↗ and Miami-Dade recertification ↗, read Oct 9, 2026. What the deadline means for buyers
