COLONIES Home Values: What Homes Actually Sell For

COLONIES (WINTER PARK, FL): 12 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-08-02, a 7-year price record, and sales split by price band and home size — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.

In the current window, sellers accepted a median 84.2% of original asking; the median sale took 85 days (window ending 2026-08-02).

The 7-year recorded price history

Over the recorded series, COLONIES’s median sold price moved from $41,000 (2016) to $90,125 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +120% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.

The last decade in COLONIES, briefly

The recorded series starts in 2016 at $41,000. Against the 2022 peak of $156,000, the current median stands at -42%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 17 closings a year (10-yr average 6.5). With roughly 6.5 closings a year, COLONIES’s medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure above.

What actually trades here: 98% condominium, 2% townhouse, with a median of 1,066 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $91 in the current window.

Where COLONIES sales actually landed, 2024–2026

Of the 36 recorded COLONIES closings since 2024, half landed between $83,375 and $112,125 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $60,000 and the highest $145,500. If your home sits outside the middle band, the reason usually shows up in the size table below before it shows up in condition.

What homes of your size have sold for in COLONIES

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 ($162 vs $87) — the usual pattern, since lot, kitchen and baths do not scale with floor area.

What is on the market in COLONIES right now

From the live MLS feed as of 2026-09-03: 4 active listings (plus 0 pending) asking from $89,900 to $159,000, median $149,500; 3 of 4 have been on the market over 60 days (median 74 days so far); the homes listed or recently sold were built between 1974 and 1974 (median 1974); 10 of 15 listed or recently sold homes report an HOA, median $427/mo; 1 of 15 geocoded listed or recently sold homes sit inside a FEMA special flood hazard zone (A/V), which buyers’ lenders will price into insurance; median elevation 73 ft; the features listings here most often name are Pool, Playground, Tennis Court(s), Buyer Approval Required and Community Mailbox. For a seller this is the competition a buyer will tour alongside your home; for a buyer, the stale share is where negotiating room usually is. See the current COLONIES listings →

At COLONIES’s $90,125 median and Orange County’s adopted 16.67 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $1,500 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $830 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. Municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county; see the Orange County tax page.

Selling in COLONIES right now: what the record says

Current asking prices run a median $149,500 against the $90,125 recorded sold median (+66%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 4 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 0% of COLONIES’s listings are under contract, against 33% for ZIP 32792 and 26% for Orange County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Since 2015, 70 COLONIES listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (9 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 44% of COLONIES listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 60%. Momentum’s market-heat index for COLONIES reads 24/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).

Cash bought 92% of recorded COLONIES sales in the window ending 2026-06 (12 of 13) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. With asking prices running +66% over the recorded sold median, a COLONIES listing priced against the closed record above stands out against its competition; one priced against the asking crowd joins the statewide list of homes that never sold.

How COLONIES compares with its neighbors

Communities buyers shopping COLONIES are also weighing (nearest by map distance), each on its own recorded 12-month closings. A median well above the neighbors is a ceiling to price against; well below is where the value argument lives.
