Over the recorded series, Montclair Lake Estates’s median sold price moved from $203,000 (2015) to $430,000 (12 months ending 2026-09-20) — +112% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2015 at $203,000. Against the 2024 peak of $483,000, the current median stands at -11%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 11 closings a year (10-yr average 5.1). With roughly 5.1 closings a year, Montclair Lake Estates’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 15 recorded Montclair Lake Estates closings since 2024, half landed between $405,825 and $471,250 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $380,000 and the highest $540,000. 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 $400,000 | 3 (20%) | |
| $400,000 – $433,333 | 3 (20%) | |
| $433,333 – $466,667 | 5 (33%) | |
| $466,667 – $500,000 | 2 (13%) | |
| None and up | 2 (13%) |
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 ($310 vs $288) — 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 1,328–1,410 sq ft | $310 | $411,650 | $380,000 – $490,000 | 5 |
| Mid-size homes 1,434–1,566 sq ft | $296 | $445,000 | $385,000 – $520,999 | 5 |
| Larger homes 1,579–2,146 sq ft | $288 | $460,000 | $400,000 – $540,000 | 5 |

At Montclair Lake Estates’s $430,000 median and Pinellas County’s adopted 19.39 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $8,340 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $7,520 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 Pinellas County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $514,450 against the $430,000 recorded sold median (+20%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 2.7 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 0% of Montclair Lake Estates’s listings are under contract, against 23% for ZIP 33755 and 20% for Pinellas County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Momentum’s market-heat index for Montclair Lake Estates reads 26/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
With asking prices running +20% over the recorded sold median, a Montclair Lake Estates 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.
