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.

Who Derris Creek is best for.
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.

The Derris Creek buying strategy.
If we were buying in Derris Creek 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 Derris Creek.
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.
