Jon's Current Read

Biscayne Bay's pricing traces mostly to when it was built. Homes here went up largely between 2005 and 2008 (median year built 2006), and the typical home runs about 1,535 square feet. The community-wide median sits at $186,000, or $132.83 per square foot -- a level that reflects a fairly narrow build era rather than a spread of eras and styles.

Right now this is a buyer-leaning market: 6.7 months of supply against just 5 active listings out of 269 homes in the community, and the last 10 closings took a median of 32 days to go under contract. Price is down 7% year over year, though it's still up 272% since 2012 -- read that as a market that ran hot for over a decade and has cooled into more normal footing, not one in decline.

Biscayne Bay right now

🟡 Balanced market. 5.5 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of realMLS records, as of August 5, 2026. Confidence: High (5 active and pending listings, 11 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($187K) is down 6.5% from the prior 12 months ($200K) and up 284% since 2012. With about a dozen sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending August 5. Confidence: Medium (11 and 16 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview

Biscayne Bay market snapshot (as of August 5, 2026): the median sale price is about $187K ($133 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 44 days on market for closed sales, and 5.5 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 6% from the prior 12 months and up 284% since 2012, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (11 closings in the current window).

Biscayne Bay is a community of 269 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 2005 and 2008 (median 2006), with a median living area of about 1,535 square feet. 40% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Biscayne Bay is a single-era build in Jacksonville's Duval County, small enough that its resale market moves in a handful of listings at a time rather than a constant flow.

Best for

  • Buyers targeting a home built in the mid-2000s near 1,500-1,600 square feet at a price point around the current $186,000 median.
  • Sellers willing to price against a buyer-leaning market (6.7 months of supply) rather than expect competing offers.
  • Buyers who want to move on a home the day it lists, given only 5 active listings across 269 homes.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who need a large pool of active listings to compare before deciding.
  • Sellers expecting the run since 2012 (+272%) to repeat year over year -- the last year alone was down 7%.
  • Anyone shopping strictly across multiple build eras -- this community's homes cluster tightly in age (2005-2008).

If we were buying in Biscayne Bay today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Biscayne Bay.

Best Buy
Buyers comfortable moving fast in a thin resale market with limited active choices.
Biggest Risk
With only 5 active listings, timing a purchase or sale can mean waiting for the right one to surface.
Sweet Spot
Sellers with well-maintained homes near the median size (about 1,535 sq ft) priced against the current $186,000 median.
Avoid If
You need a wide selection to compare in real time -- this community won't offer that.

A Single-Era Market

With only 5 homes active against a base of 269, Biscayne Bay trades in small numbers -- a single new listing or a single sale can move the visible market meaningfully. That thinness is also why 6.7 months of supply reads as buyer-leaning even though total inventory is small in absolute terms.

About 39.8% of homes here carry a homestead exemption, pointing to a market with a meaningful base of owner-occupied resale rather than one dominated by rapid investor turnover. Combined with a build era concentrated in 2005-2008, it's a community where condition and updates -- not vintage variety -- likely explain most of the price spread around that $186,000 median.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Biscayne Bay. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here

In a market this thin -- 5 active listings across 269 homes -- pricing a home well or timing an offer takes more than a rule of thumb; it takes knowing the last handful of closings and what actually moved each one. That's the kind of read Momentum tracks closing by closing, not just at the market-band level.
