McGreevy and Comisar are a Bonita Springs buyer’s team with our office on South Tamiami Trail, and this is our guide to buying a condominium at Palm Bay Estates at Bonita Beach, the eight-home, bay-side condo of four one-story duplex buildings at 26773 Hickory Blvd, built in 1985 according to Lee County’s property roll. The full building record sits on our Palm Bay Estates guide, inside Bonita Beach in Bonita Springs, and this page turns that record into a buying plan: what the homes have recorded at, what a buyer pays beyond the price, what the public filings say about the association and what to ask for before you sign.
Palm Bay Estates is eight homes in two phases, sharing a 0.80-acre common-element parcel on the bay side of the road, with heated areas from 1,150 to 1,444 square feet. This is the Palm Bay Estates condominium in Bonita Springs, Florida 34134. It is not the City of Palm Bay on Florida’s east coast, and it is not any of the unrelated companies in the state’s corporate registry that carry the same words.
The record is thin, and we say so up front. The county’s qualified-sales file holds 2 sales in the last 60 months, $640,000 on April 30, 2025 and $525,000 on July 22, 2025, and none in the last 12 months, so we list both sales and publish no median as a price signal. The association has published no fee schedule, rules or reserve documents that we could find. Southwest Florida MLS figures were not available when we published, and each place that needs one says so.
To buy a condo in Palm Bay Estates at Bonita Beach in 2026, price the home from the two recorded sales of the last five years and the neighboring buildings, ask the seller for the budget, the reserve balance and the estoppel certificate before you offer, and get flood and wind quotes for the exact home.
The order matters because an eight-home condominium has no deep record to lean on. A buyer in a 200-home building can price from dozens of recent sales and read a budget that many owners have already scrutinized. A Palm Bay Estates buyer prices from a few data points and reads documents that eight households have seen, so the work moves from the market to the paperwork. We build that file for your short list before you tour, and our Palm Bay Estates guide carries the full building record behind it.
These are the eight facts a Palm Bay Estates condo buyer should know in October 2026, each drawn from the county’s recorded sales and parcel roll, the state’s corporate and condominium records, FEMA and the statutes, and each explained in the section that covers it.

Recent Palm Bay Estates track record, last 12 months: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). The Southwest Florida MLS pull that would show our own closings in the building was parked on the publication date, so this page never implies that we sold, listed or represented a sale at Palm Bay Estates, and we will not estimate one. What we can state is the record itself: we tracked every one of the 5 Palm Bay Estates condo sales in the county record since 2009, when the record is complete, and the 14 earlier ones, and the latest recorded sale on each of the 8 homes, before writing any advice on this page.
The Palm Bay Estates condo market for buyers in October 2026 is mostly a record of the past. The county recorded 2 qualified sales in the last 60 months, $640,000 on April 30, 2025 and $525,000 on July 22, 2025, so we list both and give no median as a price signal. These are county records, not MLS closings.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).
The county roll keeps each home’s last four sales with exact dates, and the state’s sale files add every recorded sale from 2009 on, so the record is complete from 2009 and partial before it. A count since 2009 is a complete count, and a count of all recorded history is a count of what the file holds, never a claim that it holds every sale ever made. We widened the window to 12, 24, 36 and 60 months, and none holds the 10 qualified sales that a median needs, so we follow the county’s presentation rule: list the sales and name no median as a price signal.
Every window below ends on the county index date, October 1, 2026. The same two sales fill the 24, 36 and 60-month windows.
| County window | Since | Qualified sales | Low | High |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last 12 months | October 2025 | 0 | none | none |
| Last 24 months | October 2024 | 2 | $525,000 | $640,000 |
| Last 36 months | October 2023 | 2 | $525,000 | $640,000 |
| Last 60 months | October 2021 | 2 | $525,000 | $640,000 |
Both sales were at the building address, 26773 Hickory Blvd, and both match the latest recorded sale on that home in the county roll. We leave out unit numbers and describe each home by phase and size.
| Date | Price | Phase | Heated sq ft | Price per heated sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apr 30, 2025 | $640,000 | 2 | 1,150 | $556.52 |
| Jul 22, 2025 | $525,000 | 1 | 1,415 | $371.02 |
The two prices add to $1,165,000, and the median of these 2 sales is $582,500. The pair is the whole recent record and its most puzzling part. The 1,150 square foot home sold for $640,000 on April 30, 2025, and the 1,415 square foot home sold for $525,000 on July 22, 2025, 83 days later. The smaller home sold for $115,000 more, and the price per heated square foot differs by $185.50. The county record cannot say why. Position on the water, condition, renovation and the buyer’s circumstances are the usual candidates, which is why we walk a home before we price it.
| Period | Qualified sales in the file | Low | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1986 to 1989 | 6 | $150,000 | $151,000 |
| 1990s | 3 | $200,000 | $285,000 |
| 2000s | 5 | $345,000 | $530,000 |
| 2010s | 3 | $345,000 | $650,000 |
| 2020s | 2 | $525,000 | $640,000 |
| All periods | 19 | not stated | not stated |
Of the 19, 14 are dated before 2009 and 5 are dated 2009 or later. Prices across these periods belong to very different markets, so we do not average them.
Seven of the eight homes appear in the file more than once, and a few chains show how far prices have moved. We describe each by phase, size and the date of its first sale in the file.
| Home | Sales in the file | First | Latest |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1, 1,150 sq ft, first sale July 1986 | 4 | $150,000 (July 1986) | $345,000 (July 2010) |
| Phase 2, 1,150 sq ft, first sale February 1987 | 2 | $150,000 (February 1987) | $640,000 (April 2025) |
| Phase 1, 1,415 sq ft, first sale 1990 | 2 | $200,000 (1990) | $525,000 (July 2025) |
| Phase 2, 1,444 sq ft | 3 | $150,000 (March 1987) | $512,000 (August 2011) |
The same Phase 1 home that sold for $530,000 in November 2004 sold for $345,000 in July 2010, a drop of 34.9 percent, which is the clearest reminder in the file that these prices go down as well as up. The Phase 2 home that sold for $150,000 in February 1987 sold for $640,000 in April 2025, 4.27 times its first price over about 38 years.
Qualified Department of Revenue sales are a county record, not MLS. They exclude transfers the state does not treat as arm’s length, and they can lag a closing by weeks. One of the eight homes shows a latest recorded sale on the roll that is not in the qualified file: a Phase 1, 1,150 square foot home at $132,588 on December 5, 2016. The other seven latest sales are in the file. The price is below every qualified sale of a 1,150 square foot home in the file, including the $150,000 prices of 1986 and 1987, which usually points to a partial interest or a non-market transfer, and we are saying only that the record does not tell us.
Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). That sentence covers every figure that comes from the Southwest Florida MLS: closed-sale count and median from the MLS, days on market, sale-to-list ratio, active and pending listings, months of supply, list-price history, our team’s share of Palm Bay Estates transactions and any split by phase or home size. We are not estimating them from the county record, because the two sources measure different things, and with eight homes an estimate would be false precision.

A Palm Bay Estates condo suits a buyer who wants a low-rise bay-side home on Little Hickory Island, who values a county Gulf access across the road without paying for a tower’s amenity package, and who will read a small association’s documents before offering. It does not suit a buyer who needs a published fee schedule on day one.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser roll, building layer and recorded sales, read 1 Oct 2026).
The county roll shows heated areas of 1,150, 1,251, 1,415 and 1,444 square feet, and the county’s sales file lists three bedrooms and two baths for every recorded sale. The homes sit in four buildings of two homes each, all one story with a 1985 year built in the county’s building layer, and our pairing of homes to buildings is an inference from the map points.
| Heated size | Homes | Phase placement | Latest recorded sale on the roll |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,150 sq ft | 4 | 2 in Phase 1, 2 in Phase 2 | $132,588 (2016), $345,000 (2010), $485,000 (2003), $640,000 (2025) |
| 1,251 sq ft | 1 | Phase 2 | $345,000 (December 2000) |
| 1,415 sq ft | 2 | Both in Phase 1 | $650,000 (2017), $525,000 (2025) |
| 1,444 sq ft | 1 | Phase 2 | $512,000 (August 2011) |
The counts add to eight, 4 plus 1 plus 2 plus 1. Heated area totals 10,125 square feet, a mean of 1,265.6 per home and a median of 1,200.5, the average of the 4th and 5th homes in size order. Phase 1’s four homes total 5,130 heated square feet and Phase 2’s four total 4,995, and Phase 2 holds the two sizes, 1,251 and 1,444, that appear nowhere in Phase 1.
A buyer who needs guaranteed short-term rental rights, a particular pet allowance or a deeded dock should look harder, because none of those terms is published for Palm Bay Estates. A buyer who needs covered parking or storage for a boat trailer should settle it before offering, since no garage, carport or parking assignment appears in any record we read. And a buyer who cannot get the budget, the reserve balance and the estoppel certificate should treat that as information about the home.
The state’s condominium record counts 8 units, Lee County’s roll carries 9 parcels under the association’s legal description, and the Florida corporate record shows the association as active, with its latest annual report filed April 27, 2026. The ninth parcel is the common-element parcel, and the records agree on the manager.
The state’s condominium record counts 8 units. The county roll carries 9 parcels under the association’s legal description: eight home parcels, numbered 1 through 8 on the roll, and one common-element parcel at 26771 Hickory Blvd. The ninth parcel is not a home. Four buildings with two homes each also add up to eight, and every sale on this page belongs to one of the eight homes.
The Florida Division of Corporations shows Palm Bay Estates Condominium Association, Inc. as document 761435, a Florida not-for-profit corporation filed January 13, 1982, with a reinstatement on June 7, 1990 and an annual report filed April 27, 2026. The state’s condominium public records list the project as Palm Bay Estates Condo, 8 units, recorded August 1, 1985, and the county’s roll and building layer carry 1985 as the year built. A corporation can form years before the condominium it will govern is recorded, so we do not read the gap as an error. We use 1985, the construction and recording year, for the age of the buildings.
Every parcel’s legal description on the county roll cites a recorded instrument. Phase 1, which covers four homes and the common elements, cites Official Records Book 1796, Page 3175. Phase 2, which covers the other four homes, cites Official Records Book 2577, Page 3027. Those two references are the best public pointers to the association’s governing instruments. Official Records books are numbered in the order they fill, and Book 2577 is 781 books after Book 1796, which suggests the Phase 2 instrument was recorded well after Phase 1. A buyer’s attorney should ask for the declaration and every recorded amendment, not only the first instrument.
The state’s condominium extract gives the project’s street field as a rural-route box number with ZIP code 33923, in the style of an older mailing record. Lee County says 26773 Hickory Blvd for the eight homes and 26771 Hickory Blvd for the common-element parcel, with ZIP code 34134, and the county’s map shows the parcels there. If a document, an estoppel or an insurance quote shows the rural-route address, ask the association to confirm it refers to the same property.
The Sunbiz record names Gulf Coast Realty & Property Management as the registered agent at 26711 Dublin Woods Circle, Suite 202, Bonita Springs, and the state’s condominium record names the same firm and address in care of the association. Two public records agree. A registered-agent address is not proof of who manages the building day to day, and the state’s contact data can be out of date, so the estoppel certificate, which names the manager that issues it, is the current answer. Under Florida Statute 718.501, an association pays the state’s condominium division $4 per unit each year, which for eight units is $32, and the state’s payment history shows it billed for 2022 through 2026 with nothing due. We do not name any individual officer or director.
Palm Bay Estates’ current assessment, and the list of what it covers, are not published. We found no budget, fee schedule or association source that states them, so we give no dollar figure. The only public dollar figure is the $32 annual state fee, and the route to the real number is the seller’s document package.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County roll, state condominium records and Florida statutes, read 1 Oct 2026).
Association fee and fee-includes list from Southwest Florida MLS listing remarks: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). We saw commercial listing sites that appear to carry an association fee and a list of included services for homes here, and we did not use them, because they are marketing text keyed in for a listing and not association documents. The budget and the estoppel certificate are the primary sources. Under Florida Statute 718.503 the seller must furnish the current annual budget.
For a low-rise, bay-side property, read the budget for these lines:
Fewer owners means each one carries a bigger slice of every project. As an illustration, not a Palm Bay Estates figure, a $100,000 project divided equally among eight homes is $12,500 each. Divided by heated area, it is $11,358 for a 1,150 square foot home and $14,262 for a 1,444 square foot home, a difference of $2,904. The same $100,000 across a 60-home building is $1,667 per home. We found no Palm Bay Estates special assessment notice, loan disclosure or board letter in public, so we cannot say whether the association has levied one.
A Palm Bay Estates buyer should check three documents first: the current budget with the latest annual financial statement, every special assessment notice since 2022, and the insurance summary with the contract’s milestone and reserve statement. Florida gives condominium buyers a statutory right to the association’s documents, and the seller pays to produce them.
Under Florida Statute 718.503, the seller must give the buyer the declaration, articles, bylaws, rules, the annual financial statement and budget, the milestone inspection summary if one applies, the structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none has been completed, and the frequently asked questions document described in Florida Statute 718.504. Under the statute’s standard contract language, a buyer can cancel within 7 days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after signing and receiving the documents, unless the buyer had them more than 7 days before signing. Delivering the package before the contract starts that clock early, which is why we ask for it before you offer.
| Document | What it tells you | Who has it |
|---|---|---|
| Declaration and every recorded amendment | Shares, responsibilities, leasing, pets, any dock or parking rights, phase terms | Seller’s package, Lee County Clerk |
| Plat or survey exhibit | Which areas are common, which are limited common, any water or shoreline area | Clerk, manager |
| Budget and financial statement | What the assessment funds, reserves and cash | Seller’s package, manager |
| Estoppel certificate | What your home owes, any transfer fee, capital contribution or approval right | Manager, requested by the seller |
| Special assessment notices since 2022 | Purpose, amount, payment schedule | Manager |
| Insurance declarations pages | Carriers, limits, wind and flood deductibles | Manager, insurance agent |
| Elevation certificate | Lowest floor against the base flood elevation | Surveyor, seller, manager |
| Roof age and replacement quotes | The biggest shared repair in a small association | Manager |
| Meeting minutes | Pending projects, disputes, insurance renewals | Manager |
Florida Statute 553.899 applies its milestone inspection to buildings of three or more habitable stories, and Florida Statute 718.112 excludes buildings under three stories from the structural integrity reserve study requirement, with House Bill 913 in 2025 moving that deadline to December 31, 2025 for taller buildings. The county’s building layer lists each Palm Bay Estates building as a two-home condominium town house, one story, built in 1985. That is a county tax record and not a determination under the Florida Building Code, so we say only that the rules do not appear to reach the buildings. A roof, a rotted fascia or an underfunded reserve can still cost every owner, and the Division of Florida Condominiums explains the rules in its inspections resources.
An estoppel certificate is the association’s written statement of what a home owes. Florida Statute 718.116 requires an association to issue it within 10 business days of a written or electronic request. The fee is up to $299 for the certificate, up to $119 more for an expedited request and up to $179 more where the account is delinquent, the statute’s $250, $100 and $150 base amounts as adjusted for inflation and published by the Florida DBPR in its estoppel certificate fee schedule. It is where a Palm Bay Estates buyer will see any capital contribution or transfer fee, any right of first refusal or board approval requirement, the status of every assessment and the insurance contacts. Because the declaration and rules are not public, the estoppel is the first place those terms will show.
Palm Bay Estates’ rental, pet and approval rules are not published: we found no minimum lease term, rental cap, pet limit or sale approval process. Florida, Lee County and the City of Bonita Springs each regulate short rentals through licensing, tourist taxes and permits, and each applies whatever the declaration allows.
Nothing we read states a Palm Bay Estates minimum lease length. The first question for the manager is the declaration’s leasing article, any amendments, and the board’s rental application and fee.
Florida Statute 509.242 defines a vacation rental to include a condominium unit rented to guests more than three times in a calendar year for periods of less than 30 days or one calendar month, or advertised as available for rent in that manner, and such a unit needs a license from the state’s hotels and restaurants division. The statute applies on top of any association restriction, so a license does not create a right to rent that the declaration denies. Lee County levies a tourist development tax on rentals of six months or less, at 5 percent, administered by the Clerk’s Inspector General office, according to the Lee County Clerk’s tourist tax page and the Department of Revenue’s tourist development tax rate sheet.
The City of Bonita Springs runs a rental permit program. As we read the City’s page, the permit applies to non-owner-occupied single-family, duplex or multi-family property of up to six units, and it exempts condominiums of more than six units governed by Chapter 718. Palm Bay Estates’ declaration covers eight units, which is more than six, but each of its buildings holds two, and the page does not say whether the City counts units per condominium or per building. That is a real ambiguity for a buyer who wants to rent, so confirm the current rule with the City before you rely on either reading.
Palm Bay Estates’ pet rules are not published, so we cannot state a weight limit, a count limit or a breed restriction. Ask the manager for the pet section of the rules and any registration form, whether the limit applies to guests and tenants, and whether the rules were adopted by the board or written into the declaration, because that changes how hard they are to amend. An assistance animal is not a pet under federal fair housing law, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development explains the rules on its assistance animals page. Dog rules on the public beaches nearby are set by Lee County Parks, and as of October 1, 2026 the county’s page for Bonita Beach Accesses 2 through 9 said no pets are allowed.
Palm Bay Estates’ sale approval requirement, application process, right of first refusal, transfer fee and capital contribution are not published. The estoppel certificate is where they would appear, because Florida Statute 718.116 requires it to state any capital contribution or transfer fee, any right of first refusal or board approval requirement, and the insurance contacts. Request it early in the contract period, because approval time can affect the closing date. Under Florida Statute 718.303, each owner, tenant and invitee must comply with the chapter, the declaration and the rules, and a fine may not exceed $100 per violation or $1,000 in the aggregate, after notice and an opportunity for a hearing.
FEMA’s flood map places the Palm Bay Estates buildings in Zone AE with a base flood elevation of 11 feet on panel 12071C0651G, effective November 17, 2022, and Lee County’s evacuation map puts them in Zone A. Palm Bay Estates’ own premiums are not published, so the only honest figure is a quote for the exact home.
Data updated: October 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer and Lee County evacuation layer queried 1 Oct 2026; Florida Office of Insurance Regulation data).
On October 1, 2026 we queried FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer at four home points, and each returned Zone AE, a base flood elevation of 11.0 feet on the NAVD88 datum and the same panel. A fifth point at the common-element parcel fell on water and is excluded. Lee County’s evacuation zone map returned Zone A and surge zone 1 at the same four points, and the county’s layers place the homes inside the City of Bonita Springs. A lender will require flood insurance on a financed purchase in this zone, and a cash buyer should consider it.
Ground at the four points is 3.28, 2.61, 3.59 and 3.11 feet. The base flood elevation minus ground is therefore 7.41 to 8.39 feet. That does not mean the living floors are that far under the line, because a home can stand on a raised slab, stem wall or fill, and we did not find an elevation certificate for any Palm Bay Estates building. The elevation certificate, which a licensed surveyor prepares, records the lowest floor against the base flood elevation, and it is the single most useful flood document to ask for. The City of Bonita Springs treats the design flood elevation as the base flood elevation plus one foot, which for Palm Bay Estates points to 12 feet NAVD88, and it requires a building damaged to 50 percent or more of its market value to be brought to that elevation, according to its substantial damage and substantial improvement notice. Ground at these points is the lowest of the six associations in our elevation comparison, which is a reason to price the flood quote before you price the offer.
The City’s FEMA and CRS page says FEMA maintained the City’s Community Rating System rating of Class 5, and the 25 percent discount on National Flood Insurance Program premiums that comes with it, in a notice dated November 21, 2024. Condominium buildings can buy a residential condominium building policy under the National Flood Insurance Program, and FEMA’s summary of coverage puts the building limit at the lesser of replacement cost or $250,000 times the number of units, with a coinsurance penalty when coverage is below the required share. The association’s flood policy, limit and carrier are not published.
Palm Bay Estates’ wind and flood carriers, deductibles and premiums are not published. The context is a market that moved sharply. Florida’s Office of Insurance Regulation data shows the statewide average premium per commercial residential condominium-association policy was $72,570 at the end of June 2022, $147,381 at the end of June 2024 and $135,100 at the end of June 2026, which are our readings of the OIR quarterly data. Citizens’ 2026 rate filing took effect for policies on or after July 1, 2026 with average increases of 7.7 percent for commercial residential multiperil and 14.1 percent for wind-only. Statewide averages say nothing about one association. The My Safe Florida Condo program offers eligible associations wind-mitigation inspections and grants, and we did not find whether Palm Bay Estates applied.
Lee County Emergency Management orders evacuation by zone, and Zone A is the first of five surge zones, A through E, on the county’s evacuation page. The association’s own storm plan is not published. After a declared emergency, Florida Statute 718.1265 lets a board hold meetings by video and levy special assessments without an owner vote, unless the documents say otherwise, so ask whether the declaration restricts those powers.
We did not pull a permit history for 26773 Hickory Blvd, and no Palm Bay Estates owner letter, board update or press story about the buildings’ own Ian experience was public when we checked on October 1, 2026. The City’s EnerGov portal lets anyone search permits by address, and we run that search for every home on a buyer’s list.
The U.S. Geological Survey’s high-water mark database for Ian holds these marks nearest the eight Palm Bay Estates map points. Distances are straight-line from the nearest home point, and elevations are feet above the NAVD88 datum.
| Mark | Distance | Elevation | Height above ground | Survey quality |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 26858 Hickory Blvd garage | 170 m | 11.9 ft | 5.95 ft | Good |
| Last house on Carol St | 278 m | 11.3 ft | 6.75 ft | Excellent |
| 26870 Hickory Blvd garage | 326 m | 11.0 ft | 5.3 ft | Excellent |
| 26589 Harmony Ln garage | 339 m | 12.4 ft | 6.94 ft | Good |
| 26429 Bay Rd garage | 634 m | 11.6 ft | 7.96 ft | Excellent |
Ground at the four home points we sampled is 2.61 to 3.59 feet above the same datum, according to the USGS elevation service. Subtracting gives 11.0 minus 3.59, or 7.41 feet, to 12.4 minus 2.61, or 9.79 feet, of water above Palm Bay Estates’ bare ground. That is our arithmetic from neighbors’ marks, not a measurement taken at the buildings, and a floor raised above the ground would have met less water. The National Hurricane Center’s Hurricane Ian report says maximum inundation of 8 to 12 feet above ground occurred in Estero, Bonita Beach, Bonita Springs and North Naples, and other agency documents we read describe higher figures for the same coast, so we treat the surveyed marks as the closest evidence for this block.
Ask whether the home took water, whether an insurance claim was filed and paid, whether the association levied a special assessment for storm work and whether every permit is closed. Florida requires a seller to disclose flood history under Florida Statute 689.302, and a buyer who gets the answers in writing has what a lender and an insurer will ask for. The county roll’s latest-sale dates show two Palm Bay Estates homes trading since the storm, which is consistent with an ordinary resale market and says nothing about damage.
You can finance a Palm Bay Estates condo only if the lender approves both you and the project, and a very small condominium is reviewed on its budget, reserves, insurance and any special assessment as much as on your credit. We confirm what a lender will ask for the exact home before you offer.
A lender that finances a condominium unit usually asks the association or its manager to complete a project questionnaire, and the answers decide whether the loan can close. The questions commonly cover the budget and how much of it goes to reserves, the share of owners who are behind on assessments, any pending or planned special assessment, any litigation, the master insurance for wind, flood and liability, and how many homes are owner-occupied. Your lender’s list controls, and we do not name a lender because the page does not rest on one.
In a large building a few late payers barely move the budget. In an eight-home association one owner who stops paying is a visible share of every month’s income, and one large repair is a big number per home. Where the public record shows no budget, no reserve policy and no website, the lender’s questionnaire is the first time anyone outside the building sees those answers, and a questionnaire that comes back thin can slow a loan.
A cash purchase skips the lender’s project review, but not the flood and wind questions, the documents or the estoppel. A financed purchase adds the project review, the lender’s title policy, mortgage taxes and a flood policy that the lender requires in Zone AE. Current mortgage rates change weekly, and Freddie Mac publishes the weekly average on its Primary Mortgage Market Survey page, which is a national average and not a quote for this building. Talk to a lender about the project before you tour, and start your Palm Bay Estates buyer consultation so we can line the paperwork up with theirs.
Property tax on a Palm Bay Estates home resets to market value after a sale, so never carry a seller’s bill forward. At the $525,000 recorded price the deed tax is $3,675, and an 80 percent loan on that price adds $1,470 in mortgage stamps and $840 in intangible tax.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser roll, recorded sales and Florida statutes, read 1 Oct 2026).
Property tax on a Palm Bay Estates home is billed by the Lee County Tax Collector from the Property Appraiser’s assessment. The roll at leepa.org shows each home’s assessed value, exemptions and the taxing authorities, which include the City of Bonita Springs. We publish no tax estimate here because we did not pull a millage for this address, and we will run one at your purchase price when you ask.
Florida taxes deeds at 70 cents per $100 of consideration under Florida Statute 201.02. In Lee County the seller customarily pays that tax and also the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, and the contract controls all three. A buyer’s lender will require its own lender’s policy at the buyer’s cost.
If you finance, the loan carries two state taxes. Florida Statute 201.08 sets the documentary stamp tax on a recorded mortgage at 35 cents on each $100 of the debt, and Florida Statute 199.133 imposes a one-time nonrecurring intangible tax of 2 mills on each dollar of the debt secured by real property, as the Department of Revenue’s documentary stamp tax page and nonrecurring intangible tax page describe. The worksheet below is an illustration and not a quote.
| Closing item on a recorded price | Who customarily pays | At $525,000 | At $640,000 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deed tax at 70 cents per $100 | Seller, contract controls | $3,675 | $4,480 |
| Down payment at 20 percent | Buyer | $105,000 | $128,000 |
| Loan amount at 80 percent | Buyer | $420,000 | $512,000 |
| Mortgage stamps at 35 cents per $100 of the loan | Buyer | $1,470 | $1,792 |
| Intangible tax at 2 mills on the loan | Buyer | $840 | $1,024 |
| Mortgage stamps plus intangible tax | Buyer | $2,310 | $2,816 |
| Owner’s title policy | Seller in Lee County, contract controls | Quote from the title agent | Quote from the title agent |
| Lender’s title policy, recording, appraisal, inspection, survey, prorations, insurance escrow | Buyer | Per the Loan Estimate and closing statement | Per the closing statement |
The two prices are the two qualified Palm Bay Estates sales of the last 60 months, July 22, 2025 and April 30, 2025. The worksheet leaves out the items we cannot source for Palm Bay Estates, including any association application fee, transfer fee or capital contribution, which the estoppel certificate states. Your lender’s Loan Estimate and the title company’s settlement statement control.

Since August 17, 2024, an MLS participant working with a buyer must sign a written agreement before touring a home, in person or by live virtual tour, and it must state any compensation as an amount or rate that is objectively ascertainable. That makes the fee a conversation before the first tour.
Data updated: October 2026 (National Association of Realtors guidance, read 1 Oct 2026).
According to the National Association of Realtors, Written Buyer Agreements 101, the agreement must conspicuously disclose the amount or rate of any compensation and how it is determined, state that the agent may not receive compensation from any source that exceeds the amount agreed with you, and state that broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable. It should also say what services you receive and how long the agreement lasts.
We put the agreement and the fee in writing before we open the first Palm Bay Estates door, and we explain who pays what: you can ask the seller in your offer to cover some or all of our fee, and any part the seller does not cover is yours. We will walk you through the NAR settlement FAQs in plain terms before you sign anything. Start your Palm Bay Estates buyer consultation or Call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Lee County’s school proximity layer, queried on October 1, 2026 for the Palm Bay Estates home points, returned elementary zone Q. The School District of Lee County’s address locator controls the answer for any specific home, and the district revises its plan every year, so check the address for the current school year.
Open the district’s school zones page, which links to the school site locator, and enter 26773 Hickory Blvd. Run it for the current school year and again if the district approves a new enrollment plan. The district’s published enrollment plan explains how choice and proximity zones work. The district page says the 2026 to 2027 plan was approved on December 1, 2025, and we did not read that version.
Daily life at Palm Bay Estates means a bay-side address on Hickory Blvd with a county Gulf beach access about 57 to 115 meters from the homes by our straight-line measurement, City and county services for roads, and a drive of 11 to 14 minutes to Interstate 75. Several public beach lots changed their rules in September 2026.
Palm Bay Estates sits on the east, or bay, side of Hickory Blvd on Little Hickory Island, the barrier island that carries Bonita Beach, and the county’s public Gulf beach access at 26786 Hickory Blvd sits almost directly across the road. By our straight-line measurement from the county’s access-point layer to the eight home points, Access 6 is about 57 to 115 meters away, Access 7 is about 317 to 365 meters away and Access 5 is about 388 to 437 meters away. Those are our measurements, not walking routes. Lee County Parks pages, which we re-read on October 1, 2026, said the following, and the pages change, so check them again before you go.
A WGCU report from September 9, 2026 covers the parking closures. The county’s annual beach parking pass is $60 under the unified payment system that started May 1, 2025, per the county’s payment-system notice. Whether an owner can walk through the association’s grounds to the sand, or must cross Hickory Blvd, is a declaration and site question we could not settle from public records.
The Lee County Department of Transportation closed the Big Hickory Pass Bridge on September 29, 2022 after Ian, in an update on its site, and we could not find a current status statement, so we do not claim a through route to Fort Myers Beach. Map routing from two points on the Hickory Blvd strip, one mid-strip and one at the south end, with no traffic, gives these ranges, and the routing services are public estimates and not official figures.
| Destination | Distance | Drive time |
|---|---|---|
| Southwest Florida International Airport | 24.6 to 26.6 miles | 36 to 39 minutes |
| Naples Pier | 16.6 to 18.6 miles | 30 to 33 minutes |
| Interstate 75 at exit 116 | 5.6 to 7.6 miles | 11 to 14 minutes |
The LeeTran bus system and its on-demand service operate in the area.
Bay Harbor Club is the closest comparable to Palm Bay Estates on position and price: both sit on the bay side of Hickory Blvd in FEMA Zone AE at 11 feet, and Palm Bay Estates’ two sales, $525,000 and $640,000, bracket Bay Harbor Club’s 24-month median of $555,000. They differ in size, structure, age and docks.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).
Bay Harbor Club is a two-tower condominium of 104 units by the state record and 103 on the county roll, with 13 levels over parking, built in 1983, about 1,080 to 1,130 meters north of Palm Bay Estates. If Bay Harbor Club is on your list, read our Bay Harbor Club buyer guide next.
| Question | Palm Bay Estates | Bay Harbor Club | Who it fits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Size | 8 homes in four two-home buildings | 104 units by the state record (103 on the roll), in two towers | Palm Bay Estates for the smallest scale |
| Built | 1985 per the county roll | 1983 | Palm Bay Estates for the slightly newer record |
| Stories | One story per the county | 13 levels over parking | Palm Bay Estates for ground-level living |
| FEMA zone | AE, 11 ft | AE, 11 ft | Equal |
| Bare ground, ft | 2.6 to 3.6 | 3.7 to 5.3 | Bay Harbor Club for higher ground |
| Docks | Not published | 50 deeded docks among 103 units | Bay Harbor Club if a deeded dock matters |
| County median | Not stated: 2 sales in 60 months, fewer than 10 | $555,000 (12 sales in 24 months) | Compare directionally; windows differ |
| County range | $525,000 to $640,000 (60 months) | $450,000 to $750,000 (24 months) | Bay Harbor Club for the wider recent set |
| Median per heated sq ft | $463.77, the median of these 2 sales | $412.64 (24 months) | Compare directionally; two sales are not a market |
| Home size | 1,150 to 1,444 sq ft, four sizes | 1,345 sq ft standard plan | Palm Bay Estates for variety |
Palm Bay Estates’ two sales in 60 months both fall in 2025, and Bay Harbor Club’s twelve sales span two years.
| If your priority is | Look first at | Why, from the record |
|---|---|---|
| One-story living | Palm Bay Estates | One story against 13 levels |
| A tiny association | Palm Bay Estates | 8 homes against 104 units |
| A deeded dock | Bay Harbor Club | 50 deeded docks documented |
| A deeper recent sales record | Bay Harbor Club | 12 sales in 24 months against 2 in 60 months |
| Higher bare ground | Bay Harbor Club | 3.7 to 5.3 feet against 2.6 to 3.6 feet |
| A lower entry price on the strip | See the strip comparison below | Beach and Tennis Club has the lowest stated median in our table, $280,000 over 12 months |
Palm Bay Estates is one of the smallest condominiums on the Bonita Beach strip, with 8 homes against 40 to 360 in many neighbors, and its two recorded 2025 sales, $525,000 and $640,000, bracket Bay Harbor Club’s $555,000 median. County windows differ by association, so every figure below carries its own window.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).
The yardstick is each association’s first window among 12, 24, 36 and 60 months that holds 10 or more qualified county sales, with the number of sales beside it, plus the FEMA zone and the bare-earth ground elevation at the query points. Where no window up to 60 months holds 10, the table gives no median and the sales are counted instead. Palm Bay Estates and Sea Isles are in that second group, so treat the comparison as directional, not exact.
| Association | Side of Hickory Blvd | County window | Qualified sales | Median | Range | Homes | Built | FEMA zone, BFE | Bare ground, ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Palm Bay Estates | Bay | 60 months, fewer than 10: every sale listed in the market section | 2 | not stated (fewer than 10 sales) | $525,000 to $640,000 | 8 (DBPR) | 1985 | AE 11 | 2.6 to 3.6 |
| Bay Harbor Club | Bay | 24 months | 12 | $555,000 | $450,000 to $750,000 | 104 (DBPR), 103 on roll | 1983 to 1984 | AE 11 | 3.7 to 5.3 |
| Sea Isles | Bay | 60 months, fewer than 10 | 8 | not stated (fewer than 10 sales) | $395,000 to $833,000 | 84 (DBPR) | 1980 | AE 11 | 3.9 to 4.5 |
| Beach and Tennis Club | Bay (Bonita Beach Rd SW) | 12 months | 20 | $280,000 | $199,900 to $425,000 | 360 (DBPR, five projects of 72) | 1977 to 1980 | AE 10 | 6.8 |
| Seascape | Gulf | 60 months | 10 | $592,500 | $370,000 to $850,000 | 136 (DBPR) | 1979 | AE 12 | 6.0 to 6.2 |
| Bonita Beach Club | Gulf | 24 months | 17 | $690,000 | $455,000 to $1,075,000 | 198 (DBPR) | 1977 to 2009 | AE 12 | 5.6 to 5.9 |
Sea Isles’ eight sales since October 2021 run from $395,000 to $833,000, and the median of these 8 sales is $610,000. Palm Bay Estates is also the only row whose bare ground, at 2.6 to 3.6 feet, is below the 3.7 to 5.3 feet at Bay Harbor Club, the next lowest. Two sales against twelve is too thin to rank, so the first fair comparison is the one with Bay Harbor Club above.
Several neighbors are as small as Palm Bay Estates or smaller, and each has a record as thin. The county’s figures for them, each with its window, are below.
| Association | Side | Homes | Built | FEMA zone, BFE | County window | Qualified sales | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gulf Harbor (Hickory Blvd) | Bay | 8 (DBPR) | 1985 | AE 11 | 60 months, fewer than 10 | 1 | $820,000 to $820,000 |
| Bayscape | Bay | 4 (DBPR) | 1982 | AE 11 | 60 months, fewer than 10 | 1 | $899,000 to $899,000 |
| Snook Harbor | Bay | 3 (DBPR) | 2001 | AE 11 | 60 months, fewer than 10 | 1 | $1,950,000 to $1,950,000 |
| Beachwood on the Bay | Bay | 15 (DBPR) | 1982 | AE 11 | 60 months, fewer than 10 | 1 | $528,000 to $528,000 |
| Casa Bonita Royale | Bay | 40 (DBPR) | 1979 | AE 11 | 60 months, fewer than 10 | 2 | $490,000 to $520,000 |
| Bonita Beach Plantation House | Bay (Bonita Beach Rd SW) | 48 (DBPR) | 1985 | AE 10 | 60 months | 14 | $225,000 to $450,000, median $342,500 |
A single 60-month sale at Gulf Harbor, which has the same 8 homes, 1985 roll year and Zone AE 11 as Palm Bay Estates, was $820,000, while Palm Bay Estates’ two were $525,000 and $640,000, and Bonita Beach Plantation House, also built in 1985, has 14 sales at a $342,500 median. Those differences are why we compare buildings one at a time and bring the right ones into your file. The Casa Bonita towers include buildings the county maps in the higher-hazard Zone VE at 13 feet, which is a different insurance conversation from Palm Bay Estates’ Zone AE.
Palm Bay Estates offers eight one-story, bay-side homes in four buildings, a county beach access within about 115 meters and a small association, and its costs are an unpublished fee schedule, a thin sales record, 1985 buildings and the flood and insurance pressure of Zone AE. Both columns are documented below.

We, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, will watch the Southwest Florida MLS and send each match with its recorded sales, flood data and documents to request.

A seasonal Palm Bay Estates owner leaves a one-story bay-side condo empty for months, so plan the storm routine, a caretaker, the insurance and the association paperwork, because the buildings are in Evacuation Zone A and the rental, pet and approval rules are not published. Settle those before you buy, not from a distance afterward.
Ask the declaration whether a caretaker, shutters or a key holder are required, who handles an emergency in the other home of your duplex building, and how owners are notified. With eight owners and a manager named only in two public records, you may be the one who gets the call, so agree on a contact path with your neighbors. Ask too whether the roof, exterior walls and shared systems of your building belong to you, to the association or to the two owners together.
Florida title companies routinely close with remote online notarization or mail-away signing, and you should confirm wire instructions by phone, never from an email alone. Foreign buyers should plan ownership with a cross-border tax adviser, since a future sale will generally face FIRPTA withholding unless an IRS exemption or certificate applies.

Palm Bay Estates Condominium is an eight-home, bay-side condominium of four one-story duplex buildings at 26773 Hickory Blvd in Bonita Springs, built in 1985 per Lee County’s roll.
It sits on the bay side of Hickory Blvd on Little Hickory Island, inside the City of Bonita Springs in Lee County. The nearest county Gulf beach access, Access 6 at 26786 Hickory Blvd, is about 57 to 115 meters away by our straight-line measurement.
Eight. The state’s condominium record and the county roll both show 8 units, in four buildings of two homes each.
The county roll dates all eight homes and all four buildings to 1985, and the state’s condominium record shows the project recorded on August 1, 1985.
It is on the bay side of Hickory Blvd, and the county tags every home parcel Bayou Front.
The county’s qualified file shows two sales in the last 60 months, $640,000 on April 30, 2025 for a 1,150 square foot home and $525,000 on July 22, 2025 for a 1,415 square foot home.
Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). Active-listing counts come from the Southwest Florida MLS, which was not available when we published.
Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). Days on market comes from the Southwest Florida MLS, and we will not estimate it from the county record.
Not published. We found no association website, budget or rules, and we did not use fee figures from listing text. The estoppel certificate and the budget state the current assessment, and we request both before you make an offer.
Not published. Which costs the association pays, such as insurance, roofs, grounds or water, is set by the declaration and the budget.
No amenity list is public. The county shows a 0.80-acre common-element parcel, but nothing on the record names a pool, a clubhouse, a gym or a gate.
Not published. The county tags every home parcel Bayou Front, but no document we found says whether the association has a dock, a lift, a seawall or a launch, or who owns and maintains it.
Not published. The declaration’s leasing article controls, and Florida, Lee County and the City of Bonita Springs each add licensing and tax rules on top. Short-term rentals trigger a state license and the county’s 5 percent tourist tax.
Pet rules are not published. The county’s beach accesses nearby do not allow pets.
FEMA’s map shows Zone AE with a base flood elevation of 11 feet NAVD88 on panel 12071C0651G, effective November 17, 2022, and Lee County’s map shows evacuation Zone A.
A lender will require it for a financed purchase in a special flood hazard area, and a cash buyer should consider it.
Yes. Lee County’s evacuation map returned Zone A and surge zone 1 at the home points on October 1, 2026.
The U.S. Geological Survey surveyed five high-water marks within 634 meters at 11.0 to 12.4 feet above the datum, which implies roughly 7.4 to 9.8 feet of water above bare ground by our arithmetic. No Palm Bay Estates document describes the buildings’ own damage.
We found none in public records. Special assessment notices are association documents, so the estoppel certificate, the budget and the minutes are where they would appear.
The Florida corporate record and the state’s condominium record both name Gulf Coast Realty and Property Management, at 26711 Dublin Woods Circle, Suite 202, Bonita Springs.
The buildings are one story with two homes each, so the statutes that require them for buildings of three or more habitable stories do not appear to apply. That is our reading and not a determination, so ask whether the association has a reserve and a roof plan regardless.
Lee County’s school layer returned elementary zone Q for the home points on October 1, 2026.
The county roll shows heated areas of 1,150 square feet for four homes, 1,251 for one, 1,415 for two and 1,444 for one, a total of 10,125 with a median of 1,200.5.
County Access 6 is about 57 to 115 meters from the homes in a straight line, Access 7 about 317 to 365 meters and Access 5 about 388 to 437 meters.
The approval rules are not published. The estoppel certificate must state whether a board approval or right of first refusal applies, so ask for it at the start of the contract period, not the end, because approval time can affect the closing date.
With two sales in the last 60 months, the nearest comparable may be neighboring buildings as much as Palm Bay Estates itself. We compare the home with its own record and with Bay Harbor Club and the other strip neighbors, adjust for size, phase and condition, and give you a range with the reasoning.
Ask for the declaration and every amendment, the plat, the budget and financial statement, every special assessment notice since 2022, the insurance declarations pages, an elevation certificate, the roof’s age and the estoppel certificate. Florida Statute 718.503 makes the seller provide most of them at the seller’s expense.
Up to $299 for the certificate, up to $119 more for an expedited request and up to $179 more where the account is delinquent, per the Florida DBPR’s published fee schedule.
On the $525,000 recorded price, an 80 percent loan carries $1,470 in mortgage stamps and $840 in intangible tax, and the seller customarily pays the $3,675 deed tax.
The seller customarily pays, and the contract controls. Florida taxes deeds at 70 cents per $100 under Florida Statute 201.02.
Usually only if the lender approves the project as well as you. A very small condominium is reviewed on its budget, reserves, insurance and any special assessment, so have the estoppel certificate and the budget in hand early, and talk to a lender about the project before you tour.
Both. The Phase 1 home that sold for $530,000 in November 2004 sold for $345,000 in July 2010, and the Phase 2 home that sold for $150,000 in February 1987 sold for $640,000 in April 2025. These are public-record facts, not forecasts.
No. Palm Bay is a city in Brevard County on Florida’s east coast. Palm Bay Estates at Bonita Beach is an eight-home condominium at 26773 Hickory Blvd in Bonita Springs, Lee County, on Florida’s Gulf coast.
We found none. Florida requires a website or app only for condominium associations that manage 25 or more units, and Palm Bay Estates has 8, so the absence of a site says nothing about compliance.
Palm Bay Estates has 8 one-story homes built in 1985 and Bay Harbor Club has 104 units in two towers built in 1983, both in FEMA Zone AE at 11 feet.

A Bonita Beach condo specialist matters because the price is the smaller part of the decision: documents, flood elevation, insurance, a very small association and a record this thin.

We could not verify Palm Bay Estates’ fees, rules, budget, reserves, insurance, amenities or the status of any dock, because no public document states them, and the Southwest Florida MLS was not pulled for this page. Each item below names the document that answers it.
