Over the recorded series, Watercrest Condo’s median sold price moved from $178,000 (2012) to $585,000 (12 months ending 2026-09-20) — +229% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2012 at $178,000. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Watercrest Condo’s median moved +92% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2024 peak of $707,500, the current median stands at -17%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 2 to 22 closings a year (10-yr average 10.6). With roughly 10.6 closings a year, Watercrest Condo’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.
From the live MLS feed as of 2026-10-01: 4 active listings (plus 2 pending) asking from $569,500 to $634,900, median $612,450; 2 of 4 have been on the market over 60 days (median 97 days so far); the homes listed or recently sold were built between 1987 and 1987 (median 1987); 6 of 6 listed or recently sold homes report an HOA, median $1,078/mo; 1 of 6 geocoded listed or recently sold homes sit inside a FEMA special flood hazard zone (A/V), which buyers’ lenders will price into insurance; median elevation 14 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 Watercrest Condo listings →
At Watercrest Condo’s $585,000 median and Bay County’s adopted 12.28 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $7,180 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $6,700 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.
Current asking prices run a median $629,950 against the $585,000 recorded sold median (+8%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. Demand check: 0% of Watercrest Condo’s listings are under contract, against 14% for ZIP 32407 and 17% for Bay County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Momentum’s market-heat index for Watercrest Condo reads 22/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
Asking and recorded sold prices are within a few percent of each other here, so the table above is close to what a Watercrest Condo buyer will actually pay; the spread on any single home comes down to size, condition and timing.
