From the county records
$776,000
Median of 43 recorded sales since October 2023, the middle eighty percent between $429,000 and $1,250,000.
69%
Of the 373 matched residential units here claim a homestead exemption, which reads as most homes here are claimed as a permanent residence.
Newest completion recorded 2025. 1% of the parcels here were completed in the last three years, the most recent in 2025. That is below the share this site treats as actively delivering, so most of what trades here is resale, but it is not finished.
Arm’s-length sales recorded with Manatee County, read October 2026. Quitclaims, foreclosures, family transfers and pre-construction sales are excluded. Homestead requires the property to be a permanent residence, so the share carrying one is reported here as a share of matched residential units rather than as a count of who lives here. Homestead is a tax filing, not an occupancy count. A rented home can house full-time residents and will never carry the exemption, and an owner who lives here but never filed does not appear in it either. Read it as what share of matched residential units claim the exemption, not as who lives here.

Applicability not settled. WHETHER THIS BODY GOVERNS ANYTHING HAS NOT BEEN ESTABLISHED, and the difference is the whole point of this record. Palma Sola Park is a historic waterfront neighbourhood with houses from 1949 onward, which is generations before mandatory homeowners associations became normal, and this site records NO association fee for it. An association registered at a resident’s home in a neighbourhood of that age is far more often a VOLUNTARY civic or neighbourhood group with no power to assess or enforce than a mandatory association. Do not read this record as proof of mandatory dues. Equally, do not read the absence of a mandatory association as proof there are no restrictions: individual plats in neighbourhoods like this one frequently carry recorded deed restrictions that run with the land, and only a title search on a specific parcel will show them.

No officer, director or registered agent is listed here. The corporate register publishes all three by name, and several give a home address; none of that belongs in a public directory of community documents.
Board members and officers are not listed here. They change often, and their names are on the association’s own records and in the state’s corporate filings, which is where they should be read from rather than from a page that cannot keep up.

Nothing found is not the same as nothing in force. Every community in Florida with an association has governing documents; this says only that they have not been found in a public place.
The governing body is known and nothing it publishes is public. That is a gap in what has been published, not evidence that the community has no restrictions. This list records what has been found in public, not everything that governs the property. Before an offer I pull the full document set for the specific address along with the association’s budget and financials.
