Lake Markham Preserve (SANFORD, FL): 6 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-09-20, a 4-year price record, and the year-by-year record — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.

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 Lake Markham Preserve listings →
At Lake Markham Preserve’s $1,755,000 median and Seminole County’s adopted 15.18 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $26,640 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $26,040 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 Seminole County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $1,761,500 against the $1,755,000 recorded sold median (+0%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 6.9 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 0% of Lake Markham Preserve’s listings are under contract, against 25% for ZIP 32771 and 25% for Seminole County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information.
Asking and recorded sold prices are within a few percent of each other here, so the table above is close to what a Lake Markham Preserve buyer will actually pay; the spread on any single home comes down to size, condition and timing.
