SUMMER LAKES Home Values: What Homes Actually Sell For

SUMMER LAKES (ORLANDO, FL): 3 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-08-02, a 4-year price record, and the year-by-year record — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.

In the current window, sellers accepted a median 95.8% of original asking; the median sale took 29 days (window ending 2026-08-02).

The 4-year recorded price history

Over the recorded series, SUMMER LAKES’s median sold price moved from $223,250 (2016) to $455,000 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +104% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.

What actually trades here: 100% single-family residence, with a median of 1,821 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $253 in the current window.

At SUMMER LAKES’s $455,000 median and Orange County’s adopted 16.67 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $7,590 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $6,910 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 Orange County tax page.

Selling in SUMMER LAKES right now: what the record says

The market is carrying about 8 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 0% of SUMMER LAKES’s listings are under contract, against 17% for ZIP 32835 and 26% for Orange County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Since 2006, 45 SUMMER LAKES listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (2 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 51% of SUMMER LAKES listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 50%.

Cash bought 0% of recorded SUMMER LAKES sales in the window ending 2026-06 (0 of 3) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. With asking prices running +8% over the recorded sold median, a SUMMER LAKES 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.
