With only 44 closings in the current window against 641 total homes, Corkscrew Shores turns over gradually — this is not a high-velocity resale community, and that shows up in the 100-day median time on market. Homes here skew larger, with a median living area near 4,652 square feet, which narrows the buyer pool by design: this is a community built for space rather than entry-level footprints.

The 12.8% year-over-year median price decline paired with the low market heat score points to a market that has cooled from prior years without collapsing — closings are still happening, just at a more deliberate pace and with more room for negotiation than in a tighter cycle. No community amenities are currently identified from active MLS listings, so verify pool, clubhouse, or recreational features directly with a specific listing rather than assuming a standard package.

In a market with a 100-day median dom and a 12.8% year-over-year price pullback, pricing strategy and negotiation matter more than they did in a faster cycle. We track closings against the 641-home base here closely enough to tell you whether a specific listing is priced to move or priced to sit, and we push to confirm amenity and HOA specifics that are not showing up in current MLS data before you write an offer.

Listings in this community report association dues of about $594 per month ($7,128 a year) — the median AssociationFee across 226 MLS records, normalised to a monthly figure; most are billed quarterly. Dues change with budgets and can differ by section or product type; confirm the current figure with the association before you offer. Source: MLS listing records, 2026-10.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
