As of November 2026, Forrest Brook in Jacksonville, FL has 1 home for sale. Over the 12 months ending 2026-10-31, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $190,000, $190 per square foot, a median 139 days on market, sellers accepting 86% of original asking (+2% versus the prior year). Homes listed or recently sold were built 1953–1955; 3 listings state no HOA; none of the 6 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 17 ft). At the median price and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,390 ($2,660 with the full homestead exemption).
In Forrest Brook, price is set more by condition and age than by comps down the street. Homes here range from 1911 to 2006, with a median year built of 1955, so two houses on the same block can sit at very different points in their life cycle. The median price is $185,000, working out to $192.71 per square foot on a median living area of 1,368.5 square feet — one of the more accessible price points in Jacksonville's Duval County.
The current posture is buyer-leaning, with 12 months of supply and just 3 active listings — a thin market where each listing matters. Median days on market sits at 25, and price is up 8.8% year over year, so sellers still have some momentum even in a market that technically gives buyers time to be selective.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
Forrest Brook right now
🟡 Balanced market. 4.0 months of supply and 67% 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 October 31, 2026. Confidence: Medium (3 active and pending listings, 3 closed sales in 12 months).
🟡 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($190K) is up 2.4% from the prior 12 months ($186K). With about 4 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 31. Confidence: Low (3 and 6 sales in the two windows).

Who Forrest Brook is best for.
Best for
- Buyers working toward a budget around the $185,000 median who prioritize price over square footage.
- Buyers comfortable doing due diligence on a home's age and condition, given the wide construction range from 1911 to 2006.
- Buyers willing to act without a deep pool to compare, given the buyer-leaning market and 12 months of supply.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a large set of active listings to compare — only 3 are typically on the market at once.
- Buyers who want a single, consistent architectural vintage rather than a mix spanning nearly a century of construction years.
- Buyers who need every amenity confirmed upfront — the listed 24 Hour Security should be verified directly with the HOA.

The Forrest Brook buying strategy.
If we were buying in Forrest Brook 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 Forrest Brook.
A market built on condition, not comps
Roughly 44.3% of homes here carry a homestead exemption, a signal of longer-term ownership across a share of the 334-home inventory. Combined with only 3 active listings at any given time, available inventory turns over slowly — a median of 25 days on market reflects homes priced to move once they do list, not a market flooded with options.
Community amenities reported across MLS listings include 24 Hour Security; buyers should verify current access and terms directly with the HOA, since this is self-reported listing data. With a market heat score of 59 and 12 months of supply, Forrest Brook sits in buyer-leaning territory — there's room to negotiate, even with the median price up 8.8% year over year.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Forrest Brook. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page.

Composite is the plain average of the 4 factors (4.6).

Why work with Momentum here
In a community where homes range from 1911 to 2006 and only a handful of active listings exist at once, pricing isn't obvious from the outside. Momentum's local agents pull comps that account for a specific home's vintage and condition, confirm amenities like 24 Hour Security directly with the HOA rather than relying on listing sheets, and help buyers move decisively in a market where inventory is too thin to comparison-shop for long.
