Compass Lake Hills (Alford, FL): 10 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-09-20, an 11-year price record, and the year-by-year record — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.
In the current window, sellers accepted a median 92.2% of original asking; the median sale took 93 days; new construction was 40.0% of recorded sales — builder pricing competes with resales here (window ending 2026-09-20).

Over the recorded series, Compass Lake Hills’s median sold price moved from $147,450 (2016) to $207,000 (12 months ending 2026-09-20) — +40% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2016 at $147,450. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Compass Lake Hills’s median moved +29% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2025 peak of $230,000, the current median stands at -10%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 1 to 14 closings a year (10-yr average 9). With roughly 9 closings a year, Compass Lake Hills’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.
From the live MLS feed as of 2026-10-01: 13 active listings (plus 1 pending) asking from $189,000 to $365,000, median $229,900; 7 of 13 have been on the market over 60 days (median 78 days so far); the homes listed or recently sold were built between 1987 and 2026 (median 2026), 10 of them new construction; none of the 14 geocoded listed or recently sold homes sits in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 279 ft). 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 Compass Lake Hills listings →
At Compass Lake Hills’s $207,000 median and Jackson County’s adopted 14.57 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $3,020 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $2,440 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 Jackson County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $229,900 against the $207,000 recorded sold median (+11%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. Demand check: 0% of Compass Lake Hills’s listings are under contract, against 7% for ZIP 32420 and 16% for Jackson County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Momentum’s market-heat index for Compass Lake Hills reads 21/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
With asking prices running +11% over the recorded sold median, a Compass Lake Hills 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.
