As of November 2026, the MLS records 13 closed sales in Frances Court in Jacksonville, FL since 2014, the most recent in January 2026. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,703 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 43 median days on market, with 4,150 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,450 ($4,710 with the full homestead exemption).
Frances Court is a small pocket within Jacksonville's Duval County market, and the data snapshot here is thin by design — we're looking at a single closing window as of mid-2026. With that little recent transaction volume, price in this community is set far more by the condition and specifics of the individual home than by any broad neighborhood trend. Treat each listing on its own terms.
For a buyer, that means underwriting the house in front of you rather than leaning on comps that may not exist in useful numbers. For a seller, it means pricing and presentation carry unusual weight: with few recent trades to anchor expectations, the way your home shows can move the outcome more than the market itself.
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

The Frances Court buying strategy.
If we were buying in Frances Court 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 Frances Court.
A thin-data pocket in Duval
The defining feature of Frances Court right now is scarcity of data. A single closing window gives you a snapshot, not a trend line, and that changes how you should read anything you're told about "the market here." There isn't enough recent movement to draw a confident price curve, so the honest posture is to value each property individually.
That thinness cuts both ways. It can mean less competition and more room to negotiate on a specific home, but it also means fewer signposts for what a place should trade at. The work shifts to condition, location within the area, and how a given listing stacks against comparable homes in the broader Jacksonville market.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Frances Court. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a small, low-volume pocket like Frances Court, the value we add is local judgment where the numbers run out. We'll pull comparables from the surrounding Jacksonville market, pressure-test a list or offer price against the actual condition of the home, and tell you plainly when the data simply isn't there to support a given assumption.
