Market figures from public data only. Rank is among the 30 metros in our city hubs.
- Build mix. Permits were issued for 23,453 new housing units in the metro in 2025: 5,873 single-family (25%), 881 in 2–4 unit buildings and 16,699 in buildings with five or more units (71%). The 5+ share ranks #1 of the 30 metros with city hubs. (U.S. Census Bureau)
- Prices. FHFA’s all-transactions house price index rose 1.3% in the year to 2026 Q2 and rose 67.7% over five years, #1 of 30 for five-year growth. FHFA publishes this metro by division, so the figure is for the Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, FL division. (FHFA House Price Index)
- People. An estimated 6,457,988 residents on July 1, 2024, +5.2% against the April 2020 estimates base (#10 of 30 for growth; #6 by size). (U.S. Census Bureau)

Our reading: the higher the 5+ share, the more new homes will need a building or association manager as well as a listing agent. Permit data does not say whether units will be rentals or condos.
