Jon's Read · written July 15, 2026

Derris Creek covers a wide build era — homes going back to 1954 sit alongside construction as recent as 2018, with the median falling in the middle at 2002. That spread means value here is driven more by individual condition, updates, and lot specifics than by a uniform build vintage the way you'd see in a single-phase subdivision. At a median living area of 2366.5 square feet, this reads as a full-size, single-family footprint rather than a starter or a downsized product.

With 6.0 months of supply and the market currently reading balanced, this isn't a community where sellers can expect a bidding war or where buyers should expect distressed pricing — it's evenly matched. Only one home is active on the MLS right now, which keeps competition low for a buyer but also leaves very little to compare against when pricing a listing. An 86% homestead share points to a market with limited investor and rental turnover, which typically means less inventory driven by landlord exits.

Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview

Derris Creek market snapshot (as of October 23, 2026): the median sale price is about $450K ($204 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 83 days on market for closed sales.

Derris Creek is a community of 100 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1954 and 2018 (median 2002.0), with a median living area of about 2,366 square feet. 86% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Derris Creek is a 100-home community in Jacksonville, Duval County, with construction spanning from 1954 to 2018 and a median build year of 2002. Current MLS data shows a balanced market with just one active listing.

Best for

  • Buyers set on a full-size single-family floor plan who don't need a packaged HOA amenity list.
  • Buyers comfortable evaluating individual home condition and updates rather than leaning on a uniform build year.
  • Buyers targeting Duval County who want a low-competition entry point with minimal current inventory to bid against.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want new construction only — Derris Creek's homes run as far back as 1954.
  • Buyers who need resort-style or HOA-run amenities as part of the purchase.
  • Buyers who want a deep pool of active comparables to negotiate against — there's currently just one listing on the market.

If we were buying in Derris Creek today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Derris Creek.

Best Buy
Buyers looking for a full-size single-family home in Duval County without a laundry list of HOA amenities to pay for.
Biggest Risk
With only one active listing, there's very little current inventory to compare against when pricing or negotiating.
Sweet Spot
Homes built nearer the 2002 median year tend to blend original-era character with more updated systems.
Avoid If
Buyers wanting a single-vintage, amenity-rich subdivision should look elsewhere — Derris Creek's homes range from 1954 to 2018 with no documented community amenities on file.

A Small, Established Pocket in Duval County

Derris Creek is a 100-home community in Jacksonville, Duval County. Homes span a wide construction era, from 1954 through 2018, with a median year built of 2002 — meaning buyers will find a real mix of original construction and later-built homes rather than one uniform architectural moment.

Current MLS records don't document any formal community amenities here, so this isn't an HOA-amenity-driven neighborhood — the draw is the location and the homes themselves, which run to a median of 2366.5 square feet of living space, a full-size floor plan for the area.

“

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Derris Creek. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
