The market was level than a year ago: 1,935 homes closed, sales up 0.6%.
Half of everything that sold went for more than $480,000, the middle price essentially unchanged.
A typical home took 59 days to go under contract, time on market up 10.3%.
Sellers took 4.0% below their asking price at the middle of the market — a home listed at $475,000 closed near $456,000.
At today's pace the 327 homes for sale would take 2.0 months to clear — sellers hold the cards.

The focused cut

Same twelve months, ZIP by ZIP

A city median hides a lot. This is as fine as the data goes before a median stops meaning anything.

ZIP	Sold	Median price	$/sq ft	Days on market	Sale to list	Share that is Hollywood
33021	585	$495,000	$310	56	96.0%	100%
33019	570	$550,000	$442	83	94.5%	100%
33020	359	$410,000	$319	57	96.0%	100%

Each row is the whole ZIP, not this city’s slice of it, so the rows add up to more than the 1,935 sales in Hollywood itself. Showing the 3 ZIPs where Hollywood is the majority of sales and at least 25 homes changed hands. 7 more ZIPs carry a Hollywood address but belong mostly to a neighbouring city — 33024 (48.2% Hollywood), 33023 (11.3% Hollywood), 33312 (5.3% Hollywood), 33027 (1.2% Hollywood). They are left out rather than printed as a Hollywood number.

Renting

What tenants actually signed for

Closed leases, never asking prices. Bedroom counts are never blended — a studio median and a 3-bedroom median are different markets.

Size	Leases signed	Median rent
Studio	219	$1,300
1 bedroom	1,093	$1,650
2 bedroom	849	$2,300
3 bedroom	572	$3,375
4 bedroom	158	$4,325
5 bedroom	24	$5,750

Across all sizes, 2,919 leases closed at a middle rent of $2,200 a month.

What a feature is worth

The premium, in dollars per square foot

Feature	With it	Without it	Difference	Sales compared
Waterfront	$421	$337	+25%	887 vs 2,917
Pool	$355	$352	+1%	306 vs 3,498

A premium is a price difference, not proof the feature caused it — waterfront homes are often bigger and newer too.

Investment sales

Income and commercial, same twelve months

Kind	Sold	Dollar volume	Median price
Small income property (2+ doors)	69	$61M	$620,000
Commercial	115	$71M	$6,000

The ground underneath

Jobs, people and money

Housing follows the local economy. These are the free public numbers behind the market, not our data.

The economy figures are county-wide — that is as fine as the federal data goes. The Census figures are for the city itself, and lag by a year or two because that is when the survey lands.

Before you lean on a number

How this was measured

Sales are closed transactions from our own MLS feed — not asking prices, not estimates, not a national model.
The window is the twelve months to August 19, 2026, compared with the twelve months before it. Same window on both sides, always.
Every headline figure is a median — the middle sale. One mansion cannot drag it.
A ZIP needs at least 25 sales to get a row. Thinner ones are counted in the footnote instead of given a median.
Rents are closed leases, kept separate by bedroom count. We never blend a studio into a three-bedroom median.
Economy figures come from the Federal Reserve and the US Census, free and public, with the series name printed next to each one so you can check it.

Want this for your street, not just your ZIP?

We can run the same measurement on one building, one block or one portfolio.
