Over the recorded series, DRIFTWOOD’s median sold price moved from $75,250 (2013) to $185,000 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +146% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2013 at $75,250. Against the 2024 peak of $228,500, the current median stands at -19%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 12 closings a year (10-yr average 6). With roughly 6 closings a year, DRIFTWOOD’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: 51% condominium, 34% villa, 14% single-family residence, 1% condo - hotel, 1% half duplex, with a median of 1,190 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $151 in the current window.
Of the 27 recorded DRIFTWOOD closings since 2024, half landed between $156,200 and $217,000 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $85,000 and the highest $285,500. If your home sits outside the middle band, the reason usually shows up in the size table below before it shows up in condition.

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. Price per square foot is nearly flat across sizes here ($169 to $167), so square footage alone explains most of the price spread.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 921–1,094 sq ft | $169 | $185,000 | $85,000 – $235,000 | 9 |
| Mid-size homes 1,094–1,191 sq ft | $149 | $170,000 | $132,000 – $204,000 | 9 |
| Larger homes 1,196–1,552 sq ft | $167 | $215,000 | $185,000 – $285,500 | 9 |

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 DRIFTWOOD listings →
At DRIFTWOOD’s $185,000 median and Pasco County’s adopted 16.15 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $2,990 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $2,340 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 Pasco County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $175,000 against the $185,000 recorded sold median (-5%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 6 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 11% of DRIFTWOOD’s listings are under contract, against 20% for ZIP 33542 and 24% for Pasco County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Since 2009, 59 DRIFTWOOD listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (4 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 45% of DRIFTWOOD listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 44%. Momentum’s market-heat index for DRIFTWOOD reads 19/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
Cash bought 44% of recorded DRIFTWOOD sales in the window ending 2026-06 (4 of 9) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. Asking prices here currently sit -5% under the recorded sold median — sellers are pricing to move, and the closed record above is the number a buyer's appraiser will see.
