Price here is driven by condition, not square footage. Bent Tree Estates-Sec B is a built-out pocket of Seminole where homes were completed between 1959 and 1979, with the middle of the pack dating to 1976 and living space clustered around 1,322 square feet. When homes are this consistent in vintage and size, the spread in what they sell for comes down to what has been updated — roof, systems, kitchens, baths — versus what still wears its original finishes.
For sellers, that means an honest condition assessment matters more than chasing a headline number. For buyers, it means you are largely pricing renovation risk: a turnkey home and a project home can sit in the same neighborhood and look very different on paper. Read the improvements, not just the address.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($492K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($540K) IS the -8.8% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 9 sales each (4 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 2005 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Bent Tree Estates-Sec B buying strategy.
If we were buying in Bent Tree Estates-Sec B 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 Bent Tree Estates-Sec B.
A built-out mid-century pocket
The housing stock is homogenous in the ways that count: single-era construction, a median build year of 1976, and living areas that hover near 1,322 square feet. That consistency makes comparables easier to read, but it also means most homes carry the maintenance profile of their age — expect to scrutinize roof age, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC on anything that has not been recently reworked.
The high homestead share, just over 71%, points to a community held largely by long-term owners rather than short-term investors. Inventory turns slowly in a section like this, so when a well-updated home lists, it deserves a fast, serious look. We work off actual recorded closings here — the window is thin, so lean on condition and comparables rather than assuming a single sale sets the market.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Bent Tree Estates-Sec B. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
