The Alexander is a 17-story tower at 5225 Collins Ave in Mid-Beach, completed in 1962. County folio records count 240 residences plus 51 commercial units, averaging 1,063 SF of living area.
14 units were for sale on November 2, 2026, asking $479K to $1.3M (median ask $570/SF across 14 listings). Seven sales closed between November 2, 2025 and November 2, 2026, from $425K to $623K, a median $500/SF, after a median 69 days on the market. In the 12 months before that, 11 sales closed at a median $473/SF, so the median rose 6%. Across 85 recorded sales since 2020, the best year by median price per square foot was 2023, at $536 over 15 sales. That 12-month median ranks 30th of the 44 Mid-Beach buildings with at least three sales in the same window. Two-bedrooms made up 16 of the 18 sales in the last 24 months, at a median $462,500.
One unit was offered for rent at $4,200 a month. The most recent lease on record was signed in May 2025. No lease was recorded in that window, only sales.
County records show 16% of residences as owner-occupied, which points to an investor-heavy ownership base.
