The Tides isn't one product — it's four floor plans across 37 buildings, and knowing which one you're pricing changes the number more than almost anything else.
Egret and Heron are the lower-level plans — smaller, but no stairs, and they typically sell a bit faster and for more per square foot than their upstairs counterparts. Spoonbill and Cormorant are larger upper-level plans with vaulted ceilings, but they take a bit longer to move. If you have a Cormorant specifically, know that units built 2006–2010 have a different, more traditional layout than the open-concept version built 2011–2015 — worth mentioning to buyers, since it genuinely changes how the space feels.
Pond-view units usually command a premium, but not automatically — condition and finishes still do a lot of the work. A well-updated interior unit can outsell a dated pond-view one. And across every floor plan here, the pattern holds: well-priced units go under contract in weeks, overpriced ones can sit for months. The current listings below tell that story better than any average I could write down here. Buyers considering The Tides can find the full floor plan breakdown and community details on the buyer's guide to The Tides.
Questions I Get About The Tides
What is my Tides condo worth?
It depends heavily on which of the four floor plans you have, whether it's pond-facing, upper or lower level, and its condition — those factors move the price more than a blended average ever could. Check the live listings below for current pricing across the community, or request a comparative market analysis for a number specific to your unit.
Does The Tides require a Milestone Inspection or SIRS?
The Tides buildings are two stories, which generally places them outside Florida's mandatory Milestone Inspection and Structural Integrity Reserve Study requirement, which applies at three stories and up. The current reserve study is available on request.
