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 ($265K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($255K) IS the +3.9% one-year change.
Windows contain 1 to 8 sales each (3 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 1990 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
14% of homes for sale in ZIP 32607 are already under contract (under contract ÷ under contract + active listings) — a read on how much of the available inventory buyers have already claimed. Source: MLS data (2026-10-20).

The Westwood buying strategy.
If we were buying in Westwood 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 Westwood.
A closer look at the Westwood market
At a median of $213 per square foot, Westwood 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 trailing-12-month median up 4% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 41 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.
The housing stock is 1,562 homes built between 1900 and 2024, and 60% 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 Westwood. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +124% since 2012; Recent Direction +3.9% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 60% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 100.0% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
