As of September 2026, Deens Addn in Jacksonville, FL has 1 home for sale. As of September 2026, the MLS records 14 closed sales in Deens Addn in Jacksonville, FL since 2005, the most recent in April 2025. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 8,840 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $310,000, 44 median days on market, with 2,388 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,540 ($4,800 with the full homestead exemption).
Deens Addn is an older core-Jacksonville pocket where price is driven by condition, not floor plan. With a median year built around 1970 and stock running all the way back to 1910, you are buying into a wide range of ages and states of repair, so two homes on the same block can trade very differently depending on what has been touched. The median living area sits near 1,124 square feet, so this is a compact-footprint market — value comes from lot, location, and how much work has already been done.
For buyers, that spread is the opportunity: a renovated home and a project home are not priced the same, and the difference is largely in your control if you are willing to do work. For sellers, it means the median is a weak guide to your specific outcome — condition and finish level will separate you from the pack. Come in with a clear read on the actual work needed and price to the home in front of you, not to the neighborhood average.
The 60-Second Overview
This is a small, established inner-Jacksonville community of roughly 180 homes with a century-wide age range, where the individual house — its condition and updates — matters far more than any headline number.

The Deens buying strategy.
If we were buying in Deens 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 Deens.
A condition-driven older market
The housing here spans from 1910 to 2024, with the midpoint just under 1970. That mix tells you two things: much of the stock is genuinely old and will carry the maintenance realities of older construction, but there has also been newer building activity within the same footprint. Expect to inspect carefully — roof, systems, and foundation on the older homes — and to underwrite renovated listings on the quality of the work rather than the asking price alone.
The homestead share sits near 29%, which means a majority of these homes are not owner-occupied as a primary residence. That points to a meaningful investor and rental presence. It is not a knock — it can mean more transactional inventory and more variety in condition — but it does mean you should read comps closely, because a rented or flipped home is a different animal from a long-held owner-occupied one.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Deens. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market this condition-dependent, the median tells you almost nothing about a specific house. We walk the property with you, separate cosmetic from structural, and price to the actual home — not the neighborhood average. That discipline is what protects you whether you are buying a project or selling a finished one.
