Jon's Current Read

Dinsmore Farms carries a median resale price of $310,000, working out to $176.24 per square foot on a median home of about 1,868 square feet. The housing stock spans a wide range — built anywhere from 1909 to 2024, with a median build year of 1988 — so price per square foot swings more on condition and age than on any single feature package; this is a market where the individual house, not the subdivision, does most of the pricing work. No shared amenities show up in the current MLS inventory here, which reinforces that buyers are paying for the home and lot, not a clubhouse or pool.

The market posture right now is balanced: 3.8 months of supply against 10 active listings and 17 closings in the most recent window, with a median 30 days on market. Price has moved up 0.8% year over year — essentially flat — though the area is up 380% since 2012. For sellers, that flat recent read means pricing to the comparable, not the decade-long trend, is what gets a home sold in about a month. For buyers, a balanced band with only 10 active listings means a good match won't sit long, but there's no bidding-war urgency built into the data either.

Dinsmore Farms right now

🟡 Balanced market. 3.9 months of supply and 15% 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 23, 2026. Confidence: Very High (13 active and pending listings, 21 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($334K) is up 7.9% from the prior 12 months ($310K) and up 418% since 2012. With about 18 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 23. Confidence: High (21 and 17 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview

Dinsmore Farms market snapshot (as of August 23, 2026): the median sale price is about $334K ($188 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 56 days on market for closed sales, and 3.9 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is up 8% from the prior 12 months and up 418% since 2012, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (21 closings in the current window).

Dinsmore Farms is a community of 243 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1918 and 2024 (median 1980), with a median living area of about 1,633 square feet. 52% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

With 1,164 homes and a median build year of 1988, Dinsmore Farms is a mature pocket of Jacksonville in Duval County where the age and condition of the individual house — not a shared community feature — drives value.

Best for

  • Buyers working with a budget around the $310,000 median who want a standalone home rather than an amenity-fee community.
  • Buyers comfortable evaluating homes case-by-case, since the stock spans built years from 1909 to 2024.
  • Sellers whose pricing plan is anchored to the last 17 closings, not to the area's longer-term price trend.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want a new-construction-only search — the median build year here is 1988.
  • Buyers who need on-site community amenities as part of the purchase decision.
  • Buyers expecting a fast-moving bidding environment — the market band here is balanced, not hot.

If we were buying in Dinsmore Farms 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 Dinsmore Farms.

Best Buy
Buyers who want a value-priced entry into Duval County without an amenity-fee premium.
Biggest Risk
With just 10 active listings, inventory is thin enough that the right fit may take patience to find.
Sweet Spot
Move-in ready homes near the $310,000 median, priced against recent closings rather than the longer-term run-up.
Avoid If
You want a subdivision built around shared amenities — none show up in current MLS inventory here.

The Numbers Behind Dinsmore Farms

Roughly 60% of homes in Dinsmore Farms carry a homestead exemption — a property-tax status tied to the home, not a claim about who owns it — which is worth knowing when you're comparing a listing's tax line to what you'd actually owe as a new owner. Layer that against a median build year of 1988 and a range running from 1909 to 2024, and the practical takeaway is the same: check condition and permitting history on each home rather than assuming the block sets the standard.

The market heat score sits at 44, which lines up with the 'balanced' label — not a seller's sprint, not a buyer's clearance sale. Supply of 3.8 months against 10 active listings and 17 recent closings tells the same story: enough turnover to keep the comps current, not so much inventory that sellers have to compete on price alone.

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

Why work with Momentum here

In a community this spread out in age — 1909 to 2024 — and this light on shared amenities, the comp set matters more than the zip code. We pull the realmls feed directly, price against the last 17 closings rather than the 2012-to-now trend line, and tell you plainly when a listing's condition doesn't match its per-square-foot ask.
