As of November 2026, the MLS records 19 closed sales in Bennett Estates in Jacksonville, FL since 2013, the most recent in February 2026. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,703 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 43 median days on market, with 4,150 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,450 ($4,710 with the full homestead exemption).
Bennett Estates is a small, established pocket in Jacksonville with just 40 homes and a build history that runs from 1962 all the way to 2024. That spread is the whole story: with a median build year around 1967, most of what trades here is original mid-century stock, but a handful of new-construction infill homes sit alongside it. Price is driven less by a going rate and more by condition and vintage — a renovated or rebuilt home and an untouched 1960s house are not the same product, and the market treats them differently.
The single price signal we publish is the median. Everything else about value here is condition-driven, so read each listing on its own merits rather than assuming a neighborhood price. With homes rarely coming to market in a community this size, both sides should expect thin, lumpy inventory — sellers of updated homes have leverage, and buyers willing to take on an older house may find room to negotiate.

The Bennett Estates buying strategy.
If we were buying in Bennett Estates today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Bennett Estates.
A small pool with a wide vintage spread
Forty homes is a tight universe, and the year-built range from 1962 to 2024 tells you not to expect a cookie-cutter subdivision. The median build year sits in the late 1960s, so the core of the community is genuine mid-century construction, with newer infill homes filling in over the decades. Median living space lands around 2,150 square feet, which points to real, usable houses rather than starter footprints — but square footage alone won't tell you whether a home has been updated or is a project.
The homestead share is high, at roughly 85 percent, which signals a community held largely by owner-occupants rather than short-term turnover. That tends to mean well-kept blocks and infrequent listings. For a buyer, the practical takeaway is patience: when the right condition and vintage come up, be ready to move, because comparable listings won't stack up on demand.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Bennett Estates. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a 40-home community where value hinges on the condition and vintage of each specific house, generic pricing tools fall short. We read each home against its own renovation history and the small handful of relevant comps, help sellers position updated homes for the leverage they've earned, and tell buyers plainly when an older house is a project versus a turnkey buy.
