The Messtimate
Our automated estimate of the likely sale-price range for this home — modeled from recent closed sales nearby adjusted to today's market, a local size-and-age model, and the county tax roll. It is an estimate, not an appraisal, not market value, and not an offer. A licensed agent's CMA sees the condition, the lot, and the live market that a model can't.
Directional estimate — built from 20 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles (same property type, closed within the last 18 months, each adjusted to today's market).
Track record: across 2,792 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 58% of the time; median miss 9.6% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-11-01.
Actual list price: $432,900 ($325/sq ft) — the seller's asking price is not an input to this range; compare the two.
A 50% spread on the same house — here is what a model can't see:
- Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one.
- Carrying costs & concessions — insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And what the live market is doing right now:
- 1044 active listings competing, 288 under contract

What it really costs to own 1252 Rensselaer Avenue
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | Buy at the asking price of $432,900 and the first-year bill resets to about $7,000/yr (Duval County total millage 17.865 with homestead, FY2025-26); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr. |
|---|---|
| HOA dues | The listing states there is no HOA. |
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Duval County is $1,315/yr (2,001 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $1,000–$2,000/yr; neither is a quote. |
| Roof and age | Built in 2025. A newer roof and current wind-mitigation features usually mean the lower end of insurance quotes; ask for the wind-mitigation form. |
Estimated carrying cost at the asking price, before the mortgage: about $693/month (tax $583, insurance $110). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote; the monthly-cost calculator on this page adds the loan.
Flood zone & elevation
Sourced environmental data for the parcel. Confirm with FEMA and your insurer.
Not yet verified for this address. Look up the parcel at msc.fema.gov before relying on any flood assumption.
Approximate parcel elevation from USGS; confirm exact elevation with a survey.
Duval 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.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 1252 RENSSELAER Avenue and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 1252 RENSSELAER Avenue was built in 2025 and has 1,332 sq ft of living area, 3 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 1252 RENSSELAER Avenue in?
1252 RENSSELAER Avenue is in St Johns Heights in Jacksonville, Duval County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 1252 RENSSELAER Avenue have an HOA?
The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.
Why might property taxes on 1252 RENSSELAER Avenue differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $4,935 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 1252 RENSSELAER Avenue 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.
