The Messtimate™

The Messtimate

This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.

$880,750the mess$1,120,314

Actual list price: $900,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.

A 27% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:

  • Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
  • The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
  • Outliers skew it — one flip or distressed sale in the comps drags the whole $/sq ft up or down.
  • Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.

And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:

  • This home: 12 days on market vs. a 12-day community median
  • 28 active listings competing, 6 under contract
  • 4.0 months of supply
  • 70 closed here in the last 12 months

For reference, this home is listed at $900,000 ($255/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

Recent Pelican Bay Daytona Beach news

Recent local developments near this home, compiled from news and public sources. Provided for general information; verify details with the original source.

May 2026 · Development

Daytona Beach approves Avalon Park Daytona, a master-planned community of about 8,800 homes west of I-95

Daytona Beach commissioners approved Avalon Park Daytona in May 2026, clearing the way for a master-planned community of about 8,800 homes on land west of Interstate 95. The approval also allows commercial and mixed-use space as the project builds out over many years.

Why it matters: A large new master-planned community adds substantial future housing supply west of Interstate 95, a shift that can influence competition and pricing for existing communities in the area. The site is about 5 miles northwest of Pelican Bay Daytona Beach.

Observer Local News

Mar 2026 · Infrastructure

FDOT builds a new $75 million I-95 interchange at Pioneer Trail near New Smyrna Beach

The Florida Department of Transportation is building a new $75 million interchange on Interstate 95 at Pioneer Trail near New Smyrna Beach. The roughly 2-mile project widens Pioneer Trail to four lanes and adds a roundabout at Turnbull Bay Road, with construction underway in 2026.

Why it matters: A new interstate interchange improves access and shortens drive times in southeast Volusia, the kind of infrastructure that has historically shaped where demand and new development concentrate. The site is about 8 miles south of Pelican Bay Daytona Beach.

Answered before you ask

Frequently asked questions

Why might my property taxes differ from the current owner's?

Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment can be re-set after a sale. As a result a new owner's bill may differ from the seller's. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.

Where does the flood-zone information come from?

The flood designation shown (Zone X) comes from the FEMA flood map and is provided for general information. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.

Can I rely on the figures on this page?

No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
