Esplanade At Town Center is a small, thinly traded pocket of the Duval market — just 7 active listings and 16 closings in the window we track. With that few transactions, the median price of $159,800 and median $196.71 per square foot can swing hard from one closing to the next, and that shows up directly in the numbers: price is down 27.4% year over year even though the community is still up 80% since 2012.
Homes are sitting a bit longer than a fast market would suggest, just over 30 days at the median, and 5.2 months of supply puts this in balanced territory — not a seller squeeze, not a buyer's dumping ground. A market heat score of 24 confirms the posture: cool, not distressed. For sellers, that argues for pricing to the most recent comparable closings rather than the trailing average. For buyers, it argues for patience and a firm number rather than chasing whatever is currently listed.
Figures in this note are as of July 14, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
Esplanade At Town Center right now
🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 10.9 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 October 23, 2026. Confidence: High (10 active and pending listings, 10 closed sales in 12 months).
🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($150K) is down 25.0% from the prior 12 months ($200K) and up 69% since 2012. With about 22 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 October 23. Confidence: Medium (10 and 13 sales in the two windows).
What's unique here: the median sale price is about 52% below the typical Duval County sale ($150K vs $311K, trailing 12 months, realMLS records).

Who Esplanade At Town Center is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable underwriting value from a small, specific comp set rather than a broad market average
- Buyers with flexible timing who can wait out a market moving at just over 30 days on market
- Sellers willing to price to the latest closed comps rather than anchor on the year-over-year trend
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a large pool of active listings to compare before writing an offer
- Sellers assuming the 80% since-2012 appreciation trend will simply continue going forward
- Anyone relying on an automated price estimate instead of a hand-prepared valuation in a low-volume market like this

The Esplanade At Town Center buying strategy.
If we were buying in Esplanade At Town Center 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 Esplanade At Town Center.
A market too thin to read at face value
The core fact to understand about Esplanade At Town Center is sample size: 16 closings and only 7 active listings means every individual sale carries outsized weight in the median. A 27.4% year-over-year decline in a market like this is as likely to reflect which specific units traded as it is a broad repricing of the community. The longer-run figure — up 80% since 2012 — is a better signal of where value has settled over time than the more volatile recent trend.
At 5.2 months of supply and a market_heat score of 24, this reads as a balanced, unhurried market: no bidding pressure pushing prices up, but no glut of unsold inventory forcing discounts either. The median day-on-market figure, just over 30 days, is consistent with that read — homes that are priced correctly are moving, just not instantly.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Esplanade At Town Center. 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 Esplanade At Town Center 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 4 factors (2.5). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +69% since 2012; Recent Direction -25.0% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 10.9 months of supply; Pricing Power 91.2% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this thinly traded, the comparable-sales work matters more than usual — a generic automated estimate cannot account for which of the 16 recent closings are actually representative. We build a hand-prepared valuation off the specific comps that matter, not a blended average that hides the swings this data shows.
