Transcript
Lake Forest, in Jacksonville, is a Duval County community where the median sold price over the last 12 months is 207,000 dollars, and homes take a median of 47 days to sell. Here's what that means if you're watching this one.
Lake Forest has about 602 homes, built between 1924 and 2023, in Jacksonville, in Duval County. Over the last 10 years it has averaged about 13 sales a year, and 13 homes sold in the last 12 months. Every number in this video comes from the community page at move with momentum dot com, from realMLS and public records.
In the last 12 months, 13 homes sold at a median of 207,000 dollars. That's 136 dollars a square foot, matching its 2026 peak, at 94 percent of asking. Right now 11 homes are listed and 3 are pending.
21 percent of homes here are under contract, against 25 percent across Duval County, which typically means less competition for the homes that list. That's typical, not a promise. Homes here have sold at 94 percent of asking, so compare each home to recent closings, not to asking prices. Verify whether an HOA or a CDD applies.
At today's median asking price, the page estimates a first-year property tax bill with homestead of about 2,900 dollars, at Duval County's total millage of 17 point 865 mills. Ask whether there are HOA dues and what they cover, and whether a CDD assessment applies. Of 21 listing addresses checked against the FEMA flood map, 90 percent sit outside the high-risk zone; still check the map by address, and get insurance quoted by address.

Lake Forest's numbers point to an older, established pocket of Jacksonville rather than a new-construction corridor: the median year built is 1952, inside a much wider 1906–2024 range, and the median living area is 1,404 square feet. At a $155,000 median price and $129.39 per square foot, this is priced-in, condition-driven housing stock — the spread between a 1906 build and a 2024 build in the same neighborhood means two buyers can pay very different amounts per square foot for very different reasons, and that has more to do with individual home condition than with the neighborhood median moving.
The posture right now is quiet. A market-heat score of 32 and a median 40 days on market both say this is not a bidding-war environment, and at the moment of this snapshot there were zero active listings, so anyone circling this community needs to be ready to act the day something lists rather than assume a deep pool to choose from. Year-over-year the median is essentially flat at 0.6%, which for a seller means pricing to the last closed comps, not to a hot trend line, and for a buyer means there is little urgency premium baked into today's number.
Figures in this note are as of July 14, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Who Lake Forest is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting the neighborhood's median $155,000 price point who are comfortable assessing renovation condition home by home.
- Buyers willing to move quickly once a listing appears, given the current zero-active-listing snapshot.
- Long-horizon buyers or sellers who care more about the multi-decade, 634%-since-2012 trend than this year's flat 0.6% reading.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a like-for-like comparison shopping experience across a uniform, newer housing stock.
- Buyers who need a large active inventory to choose from right now.
- Buyers unwilling to budget for condition and systems work on an older median-1952-built home.

The Lake Forest buying strategy.
If we were buying in Lake Forest today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Lake Forest.
An established stock, priced by condition
Forty-three closings in the tracked window is enough to read a trend but not enough to call this a high-volume market — this is a neighborhood that turns over steadily, not one flipping constantly. The median $155,000 price and $129.39 per-square-foot figure sit against a median living area of 1,404 square feet, and with homes built anywhere from 1906 to 2024, buyers evaluating two listings at a similar price point should expect meaningfully different renovation states, systems age, and lot layouts rather than a like-for-like comparison.
Just over half of homes here, 50.6%, carry a homestead exemption, which is a reasonable proxy for owner-occupancy levels in the neighborhood's housing stock. Longer term, the median price is up 634% since 2012 — a reminder that the multi-decade trend and this year's flat 0.6% reading are two different stories, and a seller or buyer should be clear on which one they're actually pricing against.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Lake Forest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | At today's median asking price of $224,000, the first-year bill with homestead is about $3,300/yr (Duval County total millage 17.865 mills, FY2025-26, Duval County Property Appraiser 2025 final millage chart; Duval County School Board FY2025-26 adopted millage). |

Flood: of 22 listing addresses checked against the FEMA flood map, 91% sit outside the high-risk zone and 9% inside one, where flood insurance is required with a federally backed mortgage. Statewide, a Zone X flood policy runs about $500-$700/yr and a high-risk zone $1,200-$2,500/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not quotes). |
