With 355 homes and a year-built range of 1984 to 1996 (median 1987), Bear Run is a single-generation resale community -- much of the housing stock is old enough that major systems (roof, HVAC, water heater) have likely been replaced at least once, and how recently that work was done is often the biggest swing factor in price. Median living area sits at 1,506 square feet, so this reads as a starter-to-mid-size footprint rather than an executive-home market.

Inventory here is genuinely tight -- 2 active listings is a small pool in a community of 355 homes -- and a market heat score of 34 reflects that combination of low supply and a moderate 26-day median time on market rather than a bidding-war frenzy. About 70% of homes carry a homestead exemption, consistent with a resale market where turnover tends to come from move-up or downsizing decisions rather than short-term ownership churn.

In a community this size, with only 2 active listings and no amenity data to lean on, pricing a home correctly comes down to comparable-level detail work -- knowing which of the recent 13 closings actually match a given home's age, square footage, and condition. Momentum tracks Bear Run's resale activity closing by closing rather than relying on a community-wide average, which matters when price-per-square-foot is being driven by renovation status more than anything else.
