Market Heat

Momentum's read: with a market heat score of 24, Cherokee Cove is trading in a firmly buyer-favorable window right now. A median 83 days on market says pricing right matters more than moving fast, and the 3.3% pullback over the past year confirms sellers are conceding on ask.
This snapshot is built on 7 recent closings, so treat any single data point as directional rather than final until more sales clear. Zoom out, though, and the longer arc still favors ownership here: values are up 103% since 2012, even after the last year's softening.
Cherokee Cove right now
🟡 Balanced market. 6.0 months of supply and 0% 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 30, 2026. Confidence: Medium (3 active and pending listings, 6 closed sales in 12 months).
🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($290K) is down 3.7% from the prior 12 months ($301K) and up 93% since 2012. With about a dozen 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 30. Confidence: Medium (6 and 12 sales in the two windows).

Who Cherokee Cove is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a home near the community's median price point of about $290,000 with a longer decision timeline.
- Buyers who want a consistent, single-era build (2005-2015) rather than a mix of older and newer construction.
- Buyers prioritizing long-term value, given the 103% appreciation since 2012, over short-term price momentum.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need to move quickly, given the median 83 days on market.
- Buyers expecting immediate price appreciation, given the current 3.3% year-over-year decline.
- Buyers relying on a large, fast-turning resale pool, given the current market heat score of 24.

The Cherokee Cove buying strategy.
If we were buying in Cherokee Cove 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 Cherokee Cove.
A single-era community weighing a soft year against a strong decade
The build era here is tight: Cherokee Cove's 209 homes went up between 2005 and 2015, with a median year built of 2007, so buyers are looking at a fairly consistent housing stock rather than a mix of eras. Living space runs a median 2,283 square feet, and pricing works out to a median $164.34 per square foot. Zoom out and the long-term trend is strong: values are up 103% since 2012, even accounting for the past year's softening.
The last twelve months tell a more cautious story. Median price sits at $290,000, down 3.3% year over year, and the median 83 days on market runs longer than a hot-market pace. A market heat score of 24 confirms this is not a competitive, multiple-offer environment right now. Homestead exemptions apply to 65.6% of homes in the community, pointing to a base of owner-occupied primary residences rather than heavy investor or seasonal-property turnover.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Cherokee Cove. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Momentum Buy Score.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Cherokee Cove buys, holds, and resells. Momentum Research; not an appraisal.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 4 factors (5.6). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +93% since 2012; Recent Direction -3.7% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 6.0 months of supply; Pricing Power 95.0% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
Cherokee Cove's data is thin right now, just 7 closings feeding this snapshot, and a 65.6% homestead share means resale inventory doesn't turn over as fast as newer, more transient developments. That combination rewards local expertise: reading a market heat score of 24 correctly, pricing against a median that's still working through a 3.3% pullback, and knowing which of the 209 homes are genuine like-for-like comps in a 2005-2015 build era takes someone tracking this specific pocket of Duval County, not a citywide average.
