True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Over the 12 months ending 2026-11-10, 4 recorded sales closed at a median of $341,500, $249 per square foot, a median 93 days on market, sellers accepting 93% of original asking. Homes listed or recently sold were built 1922–1951. At the median price and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,100 ($5,370 with the full homestead exemption).
Fairfax's pricing is set by its age, not its size. The median home here was built in 1949, with the overall stock spanning from 1909 to 2021, and the typical listing runs 1,473.5 square feet — so the price per square foot ($249.05) already prices in a mix of untouched original construction and full renovations sitting on the same streets. With no community amenities identified in current MLS listings, buyers are paying for the house and the lot, not a package of shared perks.
The market posture right now favors patience. Median days on market sits at 93, and prices are down 3.8% year over year across the closings we're tracking. That's a window for a buyer to negotiate on condition and timeline rather than compete in multiple-offer situations. Sellers who price to the neighborhood's real comps — not last year's numbers — are the ones actually closing at the $341,500 median.

County records show 27 qualified sales in Fairfax across 2024–2025 (13 in 2024, 14 in 2025), median $335,000 — the last recorded sale per parcel on the Florida DOR 2025 assessment roll, independent of the MLS.
Fairfax is a community of 334 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1912 and 2021 (median 1948.0), with a median living area of about 1,522 square feet. 69% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Fairfax is a long-established Duval County neighborhood of 756 homes with construction spanning more than a century, from 1909 through 2021, so condition and vintage vary block by block more than location does.
Who Fairfax is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable evaluating condition on a house-by-house basis across a wide range of build years (1909 to 2021).
- Value-focused buyers targeting a purchase price near the $341,500 median without needing HOA amenities.
- Patient buyers who can use a 93-day median market pace and a softening, 3.8% year-over-year market to negotiate.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a single, uniform construction era rather than a mix spanning 1909 to 2021.
- Buyers who need a defined amenity package, since none is currently identified in MLS listings.
- Buyers wanting fast, low-inventory competitive bidding rather than a market currently trending down 3.8% year over year.

The Fairfax buying strategy.
If we were buying in Fairfax 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 Fairfax.
A Century of Construction, One Median Price
Fairfax's defining fact is its build-year spread: homes here date from 1909 to 2021, with a median year built of 1949. That range means a buyer touring the neighborhood will see original mid-century construction, decades of infill, and newer builds within the same few blocks — condition, not just location, drives what a given house is worth. At a median of 1,473.5 square feet, homes run modest in size, and the median price of $341,500 works out to $249.05 per square foot across the community's 756 homes.
A majority of homes here carry a homestead exemption — 61.3% — pointing to a market of owner-occupied housing rather than investor turnover stock. Current MLS listings show no identified community amenities, so this is a neighborhood valued on the house and the block, not a shared clubhouse or pool. With median days on market at 93 and prices down 3.8% year over year, it's currently a market that rewards patient, well-prepared buyers over quick, competitive offers.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Fairfax. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here
Working a neighborhood with a build-year spread from 1909 to 2021 requires knowing which blocks and which construction eras are actually driving the $341,500 median — a blanket comp isn't enough here. Momentum prices Fairfax house by house, weighing condition against the 93-day median market pace and the 3.8% year-over-year pullback, so buyers don't overpay for original construction and sellers don't underprice a renovated one.
