Market Heat

Duck Pond's value story starts with the housing stock itself: a median build year of 1989 across a range that spans 1940 to 2024, with a typical home running 1,558 square feet. That age spread is a big part of why price per square foot sits at $121.71 — condition and vintage vary widely from block to block, so buyers are paying for updates and layout rather than any blanket neighborhood premium.
The current posture is thin. Active listings sit at zero, with 9 closings recorded in the tracked window and a median 27 days on market — this is a market where sellers who do list tend to price to move rather than test the ceiling. The median price of $215,000 is down 15.7% year over year, though it is still up 226% since 2012. Read the pullback as a normalization after a long run rather than a collapse, and treat any single closing here as one data point, not a trend, given how few transactions there are to average.

🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 7.5 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract give buyers above-average negotiating leverage.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 5, 2026. Confidence: Medium (5 active and pending listings, 8 closed sales in 12 months).
🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($202K) is down 20.0% from the prior 12 months ($252K) and up 207% since 2012. With about a dozen 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 5.

Who Duck Pond is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a price point near the $215,000 median who are flexible on home vintage.
- Buyers ready to move quickly once a home lists, given the median 27-day time on market.
- Buyers comfortable evaluating condition property-by-property rather than assuming a uniform build era.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need multiple active listings to compare before committing — there are none right now.
- Buyers set on a specific build era, given the 1940-to-2024 range of construction.
- Sellers expecting last year's pricing — the median is down 15.7% year over year.
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 5 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($202K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($252K) IS the -20.0% one-year change.

The Duck Pond buying strategy.
If we were buying in Duck Pond 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.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
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 Duck Pond.
A market with almost no listings
Zero active listings is the headline number for Duck Pond right now. Against 9 closings in the tracked window, that means there is effectively no current inventory to compare a new listing against. A median 27 days on market from recent closings suggests that when something does list, it does not sit long.
Price per square foot of $121.71 on a median 1,558-square-foot home, against a median build year of 1989, points to a community where the wide range of ages (1940 to 2024) creates real variance in what a buyer gets for that price. Just under 59% of homes carry a homestead exemption, indicating a meaningful share of owner-occupied properties rather than a market dominated by non-homestead parcels. Market heat sits at 49, a reading that does not signal an overheated or a stalled market either way.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Duck Pond. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Momentum Buy Score.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Duck Pond buys, holds, and resells. Momentum Research; not an appraisal.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 5 factors (4.3). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +207% since 2012; Recent Direction -20.0% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 7.5 months of supply; Owner Commitment 59% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 87.9% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
With zero active listings and only 9 closings in the recent window, pricing a home in Duck Pond correctly is not something a generic online estimate can do — there simply is not enough current inventory to benchmark against, and the 1940-to-2024 build range means two homes on the same street can carry very different values. Momentum tracks this community's median price, days on market, and per-square-foot figures continuously and prepares a hand-reviewed valuation rather than relying on an automated number, so sellers price to the current thin market rather than to last year's.
