Cedar Haven is a small pocket in Hilliard — 35 homes built between 1989 and 2018, with the middle of the pack dating to 2005. That spread matters more than any single number here: you are shopping across nearly three decades of construction, so condition and updates, not square footage alone, are what set price on any given listing. The median home runs a little over 2,000 square feet, which is a usable, mid-size footprint rather than a starter or an estate.
With a community this compact, one closing can move the story, so read individual homes rather than trends. The high homestead share — roughly 77% owner-occupied — points to a settled, hold-long ownership base and thin turnover. For a buyer, that means patience: inventory is limited and you may wait for the right home. For a seller, a well-prepared, updated listing stands out precisely because comparable stock rarely hits the market.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 12.0 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract give buyers above-average negotiating leverage.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 November 14, 2026.

Best for

Probably not for
- Buyers who need to choose from many active listings right now
- Buyers on a tight budget with no room for near-term systems replacement on an older home
- Buyers wanting new-construction uniformity rather than a mix of build years and conditions

The Cedar Haven buying strategy.
If we were buying in Cedar Haven 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.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
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 Haven.
A settled community that trades on condition
The build range tells you what to underwrite. Homes from the late 1980s and 1990s will be on their second round of major systems — roof, HVAC, water heater — while the newer end of the range, into 2018, should have more life left in the mechanicals. Budget your inspection dollars accordingly and don't assume two similar-sized homes carry the same near-term maintenance bill.
At a median just over 2,000 square feet, most of these are practical single-family homes on a rural-edge Nassau County footprint rather than dense subdivision product. With only 35 homes and heavy owner occupancy, price discovery is uneven — a single updated sale or a single tired one can skew the picture, so lean on the specific home in front of you over any community-wide average.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Cedar Haven. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a 35-home community with thin turnover, the data is too sparse to trust blindly — you need someone reading each listing on its own merits. We track what actually moves in Cedar Haven and Hilliard, weigh the age-versus-condition tradeoff on every home, and tell you plainly when a listing is priced on hope rather than substance.
