Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($258K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 0 to 7 sales each (5 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 2009 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
The real cost & risk here
Before the list price, the Florida math the portals skip. These are Orange County typicals — your exact home, flood zone, and insurance quote will vary, so verify each before you offer.
Check it for your address: look up your flood zone (FEMA) · insurance by county · true-cost calculator · Orange County scorecard.
County typicals from Momentum’s Florida housing data (Zillow & Realtor.com aggregates, Census, FRED), updated monthly; insurance modeled. Flood zone is property-specific — always confirm via FEMA.

The Sherwood Forest buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sherwood 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 Sherwood Forest.
A closer look at the Sherwood Forest market
At a median of $244 per square foot, Sherwood Forest prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.
The housing stock is 90 homes built between 1985 and 1989, and 12% of parcels are homesteaded — the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sherwood Forest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
What it really costs to own in Sherwood ForestHomes for Sale
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| HOA dues | MLS listings here mostly enter dues as billed annually, but the median entry is only $210/year across 6 listings (2026-10-20), which usually means a quarterly or monthly amount was entered as annual. Ask the association for the current dues. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Orange County is $1,409/yr (4,204 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. |
| Roof and age | Median build year 1985 across 6 listings. An original roof here would be about 41 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report, and for replacement where it fails. |
