Forest Hills Unrec (Brooksville, FL): 7 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-09-20, a 6-year price record, and sales split by price band and home size — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.

Over the recorded series, Forest Hills Unrec’s median sold price moved from $92,500 (2016) to $430,000 (12 months ending 2026-09-20) — +365% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2016 at $92,500. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 8 closings a year (10-yr average 4.1). With roughly 4.1 closings a year, Forest Hills Unrec’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.
Of the 20 recorded Forest Hills Unrec closings since 2024, half landed between $288,000 and $575,675 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $220,000 and the highest $775,000. If your home sits outside the middle band, the reason usually shows up in the size table below before it shows up in condition.
| Sold price band | Share of closings | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| Under $250,000 | 3 (15%) | |
| $250,000 – $383,333 | 6 (30%) | |
| $383,333 – $516,667 | 4 (20%) | |
| $516,667 – $650,000 | 4 (20%) | |
| None and up | 3 (15%) |
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 ($279 vs $200) — the usual pattern, since lot, kitchen and baths do not scale with floor area.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 728–1,320 sq ft | $279 | $263,500 | $220,000 – $385,000 | 6 |
| Mid-size homes 1,344–1,901 sq ft | $279 | $470,000 | $240,000 – $595,000 | 6 |
| Larger homes 2,052–3,576 sq ft | $200 | $570,000 | $295,000 – $775,000 | 8 |
At Forest Hills Unrec’s $430,000 median and Hernando County’s adopted 18.64 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $8,010 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $7,240 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 Hernando County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $874,000 against the $430,000 recorded sold median (+103%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 1.5 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 0% of Forest Hills Unrec’s listings are under contract, against 27% for ZIP 34601 and 26% for Hernando County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information.
With asking prices running +103% over the recorded sold median, a Forest Hills Unrec 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.
