Jon's Current Read

Bishop Estates prices on a per-square-foot basis first: recent closings clear around $488.51 per square foot, which pushes the median sale price to $1,972,650. That combination points to larger, higher-specification homes rather than a volume-driven market.

With four closings in the trailing window and a median time on market of about 6.5 days, this is a fast-moving, thin market, not a lot of transactions to draw from, but the ones that happen move quickly. Right now there are zero active listings, so a market heat score of 80 reflects demand chasing almost no available supply. For a seller, that is about as favorable a setup as this market offers; for a buyer, it means being ready to act the moment something surfaces, rather than shopping what is currently live.

The 60-Second Overview

Bishop Estates market snapshot (as of August 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $1.97M ($489 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 7 days on market for closed sales.

Bishop Estates sits in St. Johns, St. Johns County, and trades at the upper end of the local market, with pricing and pace set by a small, closely watched pool of sales rather than a broad, browsable inventory.

Best for

  • Buyers with pre-arranged financing who can act within days of a new listing appearing.
  • Buyers targeting a higher price point who are comfortable pricing per square foot rather than by a broad range.
  • Sellers weighing a listing now, while zero active competing listings and a fast closing pace favor the seller.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want to compare multiple active listings before committing, there is currently nothing on the market to compare.
  • Buyers working with a budget well below the current per-square-foot level.
  • Anyone wanting a quick online price estimate before deciding, this community is priced from a hand-prepared, comparable-by-comparable read.

If we were buying in Bishop Estates 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 Bishop Estates.

Best Buy
Buyers with financing and paperwork fully lined up, ready to move within days of a listing appearing.
Biggest Risk
Only four recent closings back these figures, so small-sample swings are possible.
Sweet Spot
Move-in ready, higher-specification homes priced near the current per-square-foot level.
Avoid If
You want to compare several active listings side by side before deciding, there are none live right now.

A Market With No Listings and a Six-Day Clock

The numbers here describe scarcity more than volume. Four closings inform the current median price of $1,972,650 and median price per square foot of $488.51, enough to establish a price level, not enough to call a trend with certainty. Buyers and sellers should treat these as directional figures for a small, high-value community rather than a statistically deep sample.

The most telling number is the active listing count: zero. Combined with a median 6.5 days on market and a heat score of 80, the picture is a community where available homes do not sit long enough to build a visible inventory. That is a snapshot of this market right now, not a permanent feature, inventory shifts, and the next listing to hit the market will be the one that sets the pace for what follows.

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

Why work with Momentum here

A market with zero active listings and a 6.5-day median close is not one you shop passively, it is one where direct knowledge of what is about to list, and relationships with the agents who represent it, matter more than what shows up in a public search. Pricing a $1,972,650 median built on four closings also takes a hand-prepared, comparable-by-comparable read from an agent who knows this pocket of St. Johns, not a generic number.
