Lighthouse Point · Broward County

# Buying & selling in Lighthouse Point

Lighthouse Point is barely two and a half square miles, has no high-rises, and was laid out almost entirely around finger canals. People move here for one reason more than any other: you can keep a serious boat behind the house and be in the Atlantic within minutes through the Hillsboro Inlet.

The City

## Small, and deliberately so

Incorporated in 1956 and still almost entirely single family.

- Coral Key
- Lake Placid
- Palm Cove
- Canal-front
- Interior lots
- East of US-1

The boating case is the whole story here. Homes on the eastern canals sit a short run from the Hillsboro Inlet, and much of the city avoids the fixed-bridge problem that limits vessel height elsewhere in Broward. If you own or plan to own something with a mast or a flybridge, this is one of a small handful of Broward addresses that genuinely works — and it prices accordingly.

Not every lot is waterfront, and that's where value shows up. Interior streets share the same city services, the same small-town feel and the same schools, at a meaningfully different number. For buyers who want the address more than the dock, this is the part of the market worth looking at first.

Housing stock runs heavily to single-story mid-century homes on generous lots, many now renovated or replaced outright. Teardown-and-rebuild is common on the better canals, so condition varies enormously street to street — two houses a block apart can be fifty years apart in practice.

Inventory is thin. A city this small simply doesn't produce many listings in a given month, and the good ones can move through local networks before they hit the portals. Buyers benefit from narrowing the canal, vessel requirements and budget early.

Questions

## Lighthouse Point FAQ

What makes Lighthouse Point good for boaters specifically?

Proximity to the Hillsboro Inlet and the absence of fixed bridges on much of the canal system. That combination means quick ocean access without a height restriction permanently capping what you can keep behind the house. It's the single biggest driver of value here, and it varies by canal — worth confirming for any specific address before you commit.

Are there condos or townhomes in Lighthouse Point?

Very few. The city is overwhelmingly single family and has stayed that way by design. If you want condo living nearby, Pompano Beach immediately to the south has far more inventory.

Why is there so little on the market?

The city is small — roughly two and a half square miles — so even normal turnover produces a short list of available homes. Owners also tend to stay a long time. The practical consequence is that being early matters more here than almost anywhere else I work, which is why I keep a list of buyers waiting on specific canals.

Can you help if nothing is listed right now?

That's the normal situation in Lighthouse Point, and it's most of what I do here. Tell me the canal, the vessel, and the budget, and I'll work the off-market side rather than wait for a portal to update.
