What makes a great real estate agent in Fairway Lakes At Viera
The best Fairway Lakes At Viera agents share four things: local sales experience (they’ve actually closed deals here), pricing accuracy built on real comps, marketing that reaches the right buyers, and negotiation that protects your money. In Fairway Lakes At Viera, homes sell in a median of about 50.5 days, a balanced pace where pricing and presentation both matter, and values have softened about 10.6% over the past year, so a disciplined pricing strategy is key.
That local nuance is why a Fairway Lakes At Viera specialist beats a generalist: they know the streets, the HOAs, the school zones, and what buyers here will and won’t pay for.

What homes of your size have sold for in Fairway Lakes At Viera
The same recorded closings, split into thirds by living area. Find the row your home falls in: the $/sqft figure times your square footage is the recorded-sales bracket for homes like yours here — a starting range from real closings, not a valuation of your specific property. Smaller homes here have been selling at a higher price per square foot than larger ones ($355 vs $268) — the usual pattern, since lot, kitchen and baths do not scale with floor area.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 2,227–2,773 sq ft | $355 | $849,500 | $760,000 – $1,200,000 | 6 |
| Mid-size homes 2,976–3,149 sq ft | $405 | $1,235,000 | $900,000 – $1,327,500 | 6 |
| Larger homes 3,265–4,182 sq ft | $268 | $1,065,000 | $855,000 – $1,225,000 | 7 |

On a median-priced Fairway Lakes At Viera home ($947,500), property taxes at Brevard County’s typical millage of 15.6037 run roughly $14,004 a year with the homestead exemption applied — before any CDD or special-district charges, which vary by community.

At Fairway Lakes At Viera’s $947,500 median and Brevard County’s adopted 15.6 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $14,780 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $14,160 with the full Florida homestead exemption — a buyer’s first-year figure; a long-time owner’s Save Our Homes cap can be far lower, which is one reason resale taxes jump at closing.
