True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of November 2026, the MLS records 147 closed sales in Cedar Creek in Gainesville, FL since 1991, the most recent in May 2025. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $204,000 to $274,900 (median $215,000), on homes of 1,045 to 1,592 sq ft. Across Gainesville as a whole, 2,065 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $312,500, 48 median days on market, with 748 homes for sale today. At that median and Alachua County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.56 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,560 ($2,910 with the full homestead exemption).

Cedar Creek is a sizable established community of 1,248 homes with a median build year of 1977 and a stock that stretches from 1929 all the way to 2024. That range tells you most of what sets price here: condition and updates do the heavy lifting. With a median around 1,870 square feet and homes spanning nearly a century of construction, two addresses on the same street can trade very differently depending on roof, systems, and renovation history. The single figure we can anchor to is the median; everything above or below it is a condition story, not a location story.
The current snapshot shows no active listings and no closings in the window as of August 2026, so there is no live pricing to read off the board. That thin supply, paired with a homestead share just over 72 percent, points to an owner-occupied community where turnover is slow. For a seller, that scarcity can work in your favor when you do list. For a buyer, patience and readiness to move on the right home matter more here than negotiating leverage.

The 60-Second Overview
Cedar Creek is a large, predominantly owner-occupied community in Gainesville where the housing stock ranges widely in age and the real variable between homes is how much work has been done to them.

Who Cedar Creek is best for.
Best for
- Buying to hold in an established, predominantly owner-occupied Gainesville community
- Buyers willing to evaluate a home on its roof, systems, and update history rather than a blanket price tier
- Buyers who value community amenities like a pool and secured parking and will verify access with the HOA
Probably not for
- Needing to choose from a deep pool of active listings right now, since current supply is thin
- Wanting uniform, move-in-ready construction across the community
- Buyers unwilling to budget inspection time for older housing stock

The Cedar Creek buying strategy.
If we were buying in Cedar Creek 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 Cedar Creek.
A condition-driven market, not a price-tier one
With homes built from 1929 to 2024 and a median year of 1977, Cedar Creek is not a uniform subdivision you can price by the square foot. Expect a mix of original mid-century construction and fully reworked homes, sometimes side by side. The median living area near 1,870 square feet gives you a sense of scale, but the spread in value comes down to updates, mechanicals, and finishes. Buyers should budget inspection time and read each home on its own terms rather than the comp next door.
Community amenities reported across MLS listings include a pool, community mailbox, and secured garage/parking, though these vary by section and should be verified with the HOA. The homestead share above 72 percent signals a community held largely by owner-occupants, which tends to mean steadier upkeep and fewer homes churning through the market at any given time.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Cedar Creek. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this large and this varied in age, the comp you pull online rarely matches the home in front of you. We walk each property for what actually drives value here: roof and systems age, the quality and recency of updates, and how the floor plan compares to the median footprint. With no active listings on the board right now, we also track off-market movement and help sellers time a listing into that scarcity rather than against it.
