Market Heat

Brookwood Forest is a 524-home Duval County community where price is set almost entirely by condition and vintage, not by scarcity of land or a single dominant floor plan. Homes here were built anywhere from 1945 to 2018, with a median build year of 1990, so a buyer touring the neighborhood can see a mid-century original and a much newer build a few streets apart. The median sale price of $275,000 works out to about $165 per square foot on a median 1,601-square-foot home, and that per-square-foot figure is doing more explanatory work than the headline price alone.
The current posture is soft, not tight. Year-over-year, the median price is down 8.3%, and the trailing window shows zero active listings against 16 closings and a market heat score of 11 -- a market moving on what has already sold rather than what is currently for sale. For a seller, that combination argues for pricing to the recent trend rather than the long-run average. For a buyer, it argues for patience: with nothing active right now, the next listing to hit is the one to watch, and a median 39.5 days on market suggests homes are not moving on the first weekend.
Brookwood Forest right now
🟡 Balanced market. 2.8 months of supply and 25% 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 28, 2026. Confidence: High (4 active and pending listings, 14 closed sales in 12 months).
🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($275K) is down 5.1% from the prior 12 months ($290K) and up 244% since 2012. With about 23 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 28. Confidence: Medium (14 and 12 sales in the two windows).

Who Brookwood Forest is best for.
Best for
- A buyer comfortable evaluating an older home on its individual condition and updates rather than assuming new-construction consistency.
- A seller working with a realistic price expectation set by the last year's trend, not the full 2012-to-today run-up.
- A buyer or investor who values a large, established pool of 524 homes with a majority owner-occupied base over a smaller, newer-build subdivision.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants active inventory to tour this week -- there are currently zero active listings.
- A buyer set on a single, consistent build year or floor plan, given the 1945-to-2018 construction range.
- A seller expecting last year's pricing to hold given the recent 8.3% year-over-year decline.

The Brookwood Forest buying strategy.
If we were buying in Brookwood Forest 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 Brookwood Forest.
Long-run gains, a one-year pullback
The long view and the short view do not agree, and that is the most useful thing to know about Brookwood Forest right now. Since 2012, the median sale price is up 245%, a run that reflects more than a decade of sustained demand for this pocket of Duval County. Set against that, the most recent year shows an 8.3% decline in median price -- a meaningful pullback, though one year of softness inside a much longer uptrend is a different story than a market that has turned over structurally.
The homestead share of 59.2% points to a base of owner-occupied properties rather than a market dominated by transient or investor turnover, and with 524 total homes, the neighborhood is large enough to generate a steady, if not high, volume of closings -- 16 in the current window. Combined with a median 1,601 square feet of living area and a build-year range running from 1945 to 2018, the per-square-foot figure of $165.04 is the number to track from one deal to the next, since the median price alone can swing with which vintage of home happens to sell.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Brookwood Forest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here
With zero active listings in Brookwood Forest at the moment, the value in working with an agent here is less about touring what is on the market today and more about being positioned for what closes next -- tracking the 16 recent closings, the 39.5-day median time on market, and the $165.04-per-square-foot benchmark closely enough to price a new listing or a new offer correctly the day it appears. Given the wide build-year range across the neighborhood's 524 homes, an experienced, hand-prepared read on a specific property's condition and vintage matters more here than it would in a subdivision built in a single phase.
