Market Heat
Heaven Trees is a Jacksonville, Duval County community of 208 homes with a wide build range — from 1936 to 2023 — and a median build year of 1996. That span means the current median price of $431,250, or $213.81 per square foot on a median 2,253-square-foot home, reflects condition and renovation status as much as it reflects size. Two homes with similar square footage here can carry very different price tags depending on how much updating has been done since original construction.
The current posture is seller-leaning: 1.5 months of supply, a median 15 days on market, and just 1 active listing against 8 recent closings. That is a thin market — a well-priced, updated home is moving quickly, and buyers have very little to choose from at any given moment. Prices are up 1.5% year over year and up 148% since 2012, pointing to steady, sustained demand rather than a short-term spike.

🔴 Seller-leaning market. 1.3 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract give sellers the pressure advantage.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 August 5, 2026.

🟡 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($440K) is up 3.5% from the prior 12 months ($425K) and up 121% since 2012.

The Heaven Trees buying strategy.
If we were buying in Heaven Trees 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.
Come strong and clean. Homes here move, so lead with your best terms and financing ready rather than a low anchor.
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 Heaven Trees.
What's Actually Driving Heaven Trees Pricing
The build range here — homes going back to 1936 alongside product built as recently as 2023, with a median build year of 1996 — is the single biggest variable in Heaven Trees pricing. At a median $213.81 per square foot and a median home size of 2,253 square feet, individual sales still swing well off the $431,250 median depending on whether a home has been substantially updated since its original construction. Buyers should expect to pay a premium for recent renovation or newer construction within this range, not just for square footage.
Inventory is the second driver. With only 1 active listing, a median 15 days on market, and 1.5 months of supply, this reads as a seller-leaning market — the market heat score sits at 68. At the same time, 83.3% of homes carry a homestead exemption, meaning turnover here tends to come from owner move-ups and estate transitions more than investor flips, which keeps supply naturally tight.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Heaven Trees. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
