Deerfield Beach is a softening market right now, and the numbers say good homes still move. Look at it ZIP code by ZIP code, not as one city average.
The Bottom Line on Deerfield Beach
Deerfield Beach is the northernmost city in Broward County, on the Palm Beach County line, running from its fishing pier and beach west past I-95 to Florida’s Turnpike. Its commercial base splits in two: Hillsboro Boulevard and Federal Highway serve the beach and the eastern neighborhoods, while the office and industrial parks west of I-95 house corporate offices and distribution space with quick access to both counties.
Deerfield Beach is a softening housing market with shrinking inventory, and its commercial property trades in line with the rest of Broward County.

Commercial Real Estate

|---|---|---|---|
| Commercial & industrial parcels | 742 | 532 | 33,051 |

Deerfield Beach’s commercial property is a mix of beach-area retail and hospitality on the east side and office, flex and warehouse space west of I-95, where the Hillsboro Boulevard and Sample Road interchanges serve both Broward and Palm Beach counties. That two-county reach keeps industrial space in demand, and the beach side trades on the tourism season and on parking.
Deerfield Beach has about 19.9 million square feet of commercial buildings and recorded 28 arm's-length sales at a median $303 to $348 per square foot, close to the county's $322. There were 1 distress signals; we score them with Linton Global Technologies' CREDDS Framework (see our distressed commercial real estate hub).
Deerfield Beach sits on the county line, and that is its advantage. Industrial and flex buildings west of I-95 serve both Broward and Palm Beach, so tenants pay for the location. Price them against both counties’ comps, not just Broward’s.
