As of October 2026, the MLS records 9 closed sales in Forrest Creek in Jacksonville, FL since 2004, the most recent in March 2026. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 7,643 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $315,000, 43 median days on market, with 4,168 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,630 ($4,890 with the full homestead exemption).
With only a single closing in the current window, Forrest Creek gives us a thin read — one sale doesn't set a trend, and it doesn't establish a reliable price band for the community. What that closing tells us is directional, not definitive: treat any price signal here as a starting point for conversation, not a benchmark to anchor an offer or a listing price on.
In a low-volume market like this one, condition and specific lot do most of the work in setting value. Sellers should expect pricing to hinge on comparable evidence pulled from a wider area, and buyers should be prepared to underwrite each home on its own merits rather than lean on neighborhood averages that a single closing simply cannot support.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview
Forrest Creek is a small pocket within Jacksonville's Duval County market, and it trades quietly — the current window shows just one closing, which tells you turnover here is limited rather than churning.
realMLS (Northeast Florida) sales records identify 7 homes in Forrest Creek that have changed hands since 2004, built between 2004 and 2004 (median 2004), with a median living area of about 1,557 sq ft and a typical 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout; 100% are condominiums.

Who Forrest Creek is best for.
Best for
- Buyers who plan to hold and aren't rattled by a quiet, low-turnover market
- Purchasers willing to underwrite a specific home on its condition and lot rather than a neighborhood average
- Sellers open to pricing off wider-area comparable evidence and a patient timeline
Probably not for
- Buyers who need active inventory and frequent sales to compare against
- Sellers wanting a fast, high-volume market to time a quick exit
- Anyone who requires a firm published price range before committing

The Forrest Creek buying strategy.
If we were buying in Forrest Creek 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 Creek.
Reading a thin market
The defining feature of Forrest Creek right now is scarcity of data. One closing in the window means there is no meaningful spread to analyze, no reliable days-on-market pattern, and no defensible price ceiling or floor to quote. Anyone who hands you a tidy range for this community is filling gaps with guesswork.
That doesn't make the community a poor bet — it makes it a hands-on one. Value gets established transaction by transaction, and that puts a premium on pulling the right comparables, understanding each home's condition, and moving deliberately when the right property does list. Patience and evidence matter more here than momentum.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Forrest Creek. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here

We build value from comparable evidence across the wider Duval market, tell you plainly what a single closing can and cannot support, and keep you from over- or under-pricing on data that is simply too thin to stand alone.
