Brier Hill
Homes for Sale in Jacksonville, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Brier Hill's housing stock spans built dates from 1950 to 2015, with a median year built of 1998 — a wide enough range that condition and updates, not a single design era, will move the price on any given resale. At a median 1,802 square feet, this is a practical, mid-size footprint, and value here tracks how well an individual home has kept pace with its own construction era rather than any shared amenity package.
There were no closings captured in the current window, so this read leans on the composition of the 152 homes currently in inventory rather than a recent sales trend. With 59.5% of homes carrying a homestead exemption, this pocket skews toward owner-occupied resale rather than investor turnover — worth knowing before you build assumptions about how this market behaves.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
The 60-Second Overview
Brier Hill is a Duval County pocket of 152 homes in the current MLS snapshot, with construction dates spanning 1950 to 2015 and a median year built of 1998. No community amenities are identified in current listings, so the draw here is the individual homes and their location rather than a shared package.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Momentum Research figures are our own analysis. This page describes homes, pricing and community attributes, not residents.
Who Brier Hill is best for.
Best for
- Buyers who want to evaluate each home on its own construction merits across a 1950-to-2015 build range.
- Buyers planning long-term ownership, in a pocket where 59.5% of homes already carry a homestead exemption.
- Buyers targeting a practical, mid-size footprint near the median 1,802 square feet rather than an oversized or undersized outlier.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a community amenity package — none are identified in current MLS listings here.
- Buyers expecting a recent sales or pricing trend to underwrite against, since no closings were captured in this window.
- Buyers who want a single, consistent construction era rather than a mix spanning 1950 to 2015.

The Brier Hill buying strategy.
If we were buying in Brier Hill 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 Brier Hill.
A Wide Build-Year Spread
The 152 homes counted in this snapshot were built anywhere from 1950 to 2015, with a median year built of 1998. That spread means Brier Hill isn't a single-era subdivision — older, established construction sits alongside comparatively newer homes, and the difference in systems, layouts, and finish level across that range can be significant. A buyer touring here should expect to evaluate each home on its own construction era rather than assume a uniform build standard across the community.
At a median 1,802 square feet of living area, homes here run a practical mid-size footprint rather than a starter-small or oversized outlier. Ownership also skews toward stability: 59.5% of homes carry a homestead exemption, a signal that most of this inventory is owner-occupied rather than held as rental or investment stock. There are no community amenities identified from current MLS listings, so this is a neighborhood defined by its homes and location rather than a clubhouse, pool, or planned amenity package.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Brier Hill. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With build years ranging from 1950 to 2015 across the same 152-home pool, and no community amenity package to anchor value, the work here is home-by-home: verifying what has actually been updated versus original to a given year built, and confirming homestead and occupancy status before you write an offer. That is where a Momentum agent working this Duval County pocket regularly earns their keep — comparing individual homes on their own construction merits rather than leaning on a subdivision-wide story that doesn't exist here.
