Over the recorded series, Horizon South’s median sold price moved from $85,100 (2012) to $222,000 (12 months ending 2026-07-28) — +161% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2012 at $85,100. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Horizon South’s median moved +78% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2023 peak of $316,500, the current median stands at -30%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 4 to 39 closings a year (10-yr average 21.7).
From the live MLS feed as of 2026-09-02: 17 active listings (plus 1 pending) asking from $189,000 to $306,000, median $260,000; 12 of 17 have been on the market over 60 days (median 96 days so far); the homes listed or recently sold were built between 1983 and 1997 (median 1984); 18 of 18 listed or recently sold homes report an HOA, median $630/mo; none of the 17 geocoded listed or recently sold homes sits in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 30 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 Horizon South listings →
At Horizon South’s $222,000 median and Bay County’s adopted 12.28 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $2,730 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $2,240 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 Bay County tax page.
Momentum’s market-heat index for Horizon South reads 23/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
