Estimated ownership costs

Estimated costs & disclosures

Estimated ownership costs for general information. Confirm each with the county, your lender, and an insurer. See data & estimate notes.

Property tax (first-year est.)
~$2,204/yr

Estimate: a typical Monroe effective rate applied to the list price before any exemptions. Florida bills change with reassessment, homestead and other exemptions, and local taxing districts — this is not your expected bill. Confirm with the county property appraiser.

CDD assessment
None on record

No CDD assessment appears in our records for this community. CDD assessments show on the county tax bill — confirm with the tax collector.

Insurance (illustrative range)
$1k–$2k/yr

An illustrative modeled range, not based on carrier underwriting and not a quote. Florida premiums vary significantly by roof age, wind-mitigation features, claims history, and carrier — a real quote can land well outside this range. Flood zone not verified for this address — check msc.fema.gov and confirm coverage. Get a quote from a licensed insurer before relying on any figure.

HOA
None reported

The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no mandatory association applies.

Environmental data

Flood zone & elevation

Sourced environmental data for the parcel. Confirm with FEMA and your insurer.

FEMA flood zone
Not verified

Not yet verified for this address. Look up the parcel at msc.fema.gov before relying on any flood assumption.

Ground elevation
Not on record

Approximate parcel elevation from USGS; confirm exact elevation with a survey.

Windstorm / insurance
Obtain a quote

Monroe County is on the Florida coast; wind coverage is a major part of the premium. Premiums and coverage vary by home (roof age, wind mitigation, claims history); obtain a quote from a licensed insurer.

How it stacks up

Comparable recent sales

No closed sales of a similar home within about 10 miles in Monroe County in the last 18 months are in our MLS data set, so this page shows no comparable-sales median or automated estimate for Forsyth, GA. A licensed Momentum Realty agent can prepare a property-specific comparative market analysis on request.

The Messtimate™

The Messtimate

Insufficient local evidence for an automated estimate. The Messtimate is a deliberately simple range — living area × recent closed-sale $/sq ft from comparable homes nearby — and it only renders when at least 3 defensible sales exist within about 10 miles in Monroe County in the last 18 months. None qualify for this home, so no dollar range is shown. It is not an appraisal or a valuation.

Want a property-specific value review? A licensed Momentum Realty agent can prepare a free comparative market analysis using the home, the lot, its condition, and the live market.

Methodology: the range would be 1,579 sq ft × the interquartile $/sq ft of comparable closed sales (same property type, living area within 30%, closed within 18 months, nearest verified subdivision, 3-mile, then 10-mile same-county stage). Estimate for general information only; never an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 3, 2026.

Before you decide

Buyer research checklist

Items worth confirming for 287 Dumas Road, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.

  • Built in 1983 (43 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
  • The listing reports no HOA: confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to this parcel.
  • Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and confirm with your insurer whether flood insurance is required.
  • Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Monroe County; age of roof and any prior claims affect the premium.
  • Waterfront: confirm seawall or dock condition and permits, and ask who owns and maintains the shoreline.
  • Listed living area is 1,579 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
  • Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
  • Review permit history with the county.
  • Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $2,204/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; confirm exemptions with the county tax assessor.
  • School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

Answered before you ask

Frequently asked questions

How big is 287 Dumas Road and when was it built?

Per the listing record, 287 Dumas Road was built in 1983 and has 1,579 sq ft of living area, 4 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.

What community is 287 Dumas Road in?

287 Dumas Road is in Forsyth, Monroe County. Too few comparable closed sales exist nearby for this page to show local sales statistics; a licensed agent can prepare a comparative market analysis.

Does 287 Dumas Road have an HOA?

The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.

How are property taxes on 287 Dumas Road estimated?

The estimate on this page (about $2,204 per year) assumes the county reassesses at the list price. Georgia counties reassess after a sale and exemptions such as homestead must be applied for by the new owner, so the seller's current bill is not a guide. Confirm with the county tax assessor.

Is 287 Dumas Road in a flood zone?

A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with 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.

Cost and market figures are derived from available data and simple calculations, not a professional appraisal. We make no representation that any estimate reflects fair market value.
