Buckingham's pricing runs on age and condition more than anything else. The homes here were built between 1988 and 2000, with a median build year of 1991, and the median price of $321,500 works out to just over $182 per square foot on a median living space just over 2,035 square feet. That narrow build-year window combined with home-by-home differences in maintenance and updating means two houses on the same street can price very differently depending on what's been touched inside.
Right now this reads as a buyer-leaning market: 7.2 months of supply against just 3 active listings, with recent sales moving in around 19 days. That's a thin, small dataset — the current median is drawn from just 5 closings — so it should be treated as directional rather than precise, and it argues for negotiating room rather than urgency on the buy side.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Who Buckingham is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a median price around $321,500 in Duval County who are ready to act once a listing appears.
- Buyers who want to judge a home on its individual condition and updates rather than assume a uniform build era.
- Buyers comfortable operating in a buyer-leaning market with 7.2 months of supply and room to negotiate.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need several active listings to compare side by side — only 3 are on the market at a time.
- Buyers seeking new construction — every home in Buckingham was built between 1988 and 2000.
- Buyers who want a large, high-volume dataset behind the pricing — the current median rests on just 5 closings.

The Buckingham buying strategy.
If we were buying in Buckingham 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.
Come strong and clean. Homes here move, so lead with your best terms and financing ready rather than a low anchor.
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 Buckingham.
Buckingham by the Numbers
With only 3 homes currently active out of 80 total and 7.2 months of supply, Buckingham sits on the buyer-leaning side of the market. Listings here don't sit long once priced correctly — the recent median time on market is 19 days — but there simply isn't much to choose from at any given moment, which puts a premium on being ready to move when the right listing appears.
Ownership here leans owner-occupied: just over 81 percent of homes carry a homestead exemption, meaning most of the housing stock is lived in by its owner rather than held as a rental or investment property. Combined with a build window running from 1988 to 2000, it points to a stable resale market rather than a churn-heavy one.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Buckingham. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here
With just 3 active listings and a median built on a small sample of 5 recent closings, pricing Buckingham correctly takes more than pulling a number off a portal — it takes knowing which recent sale is genuinely comparable and which one skews the read. Momentum tracks this pocket of Duval County closely enough to tell a client when the number in front of them is representative and when it isn't.
