HIAWASSEE PLACE
Homes for Sale in ORLANDO, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Hiawassee Place is a small, established pocket of 48 homes built in the early 1970s, and the current snapshot shows zero active listings against a three-closing window over the trailing period. That is not a data gap you can read as a dead market — it is a tight, low-inventory pocket where a handful of sales sets the tone and the next listing to hit the market largely defines pricing until proven otherwise.
With a median price of $336,000 and a median price per square foot of $158.70 on a typical home near 1,710 square feet, pricing here tracks closely to size and condition rather than any amenity package — the FACTS show none identified. A median 25 days on market says homes that are priced correctly for their age and condition are not sitting, but with only a few closings to reference, sellers and buyers both need to lean on comparable condition and updates rather than assume a market-wide trend.
The 60-Second Overview
HIAWASSEE PLACE market snapshot (as of August 2, 2026): the median sale price is about $336K ($159 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 25 days on market for closed sales.
HIAWASSEE PLACE is a community of 48 homes in ORLANDO, Orange County, built between 1972 and 1978 (median 1973), with a median living area of about 1,710 square feet. 56% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Hiawassee Place is a compact 1970s-built community in Orlando where homes were constructed within a tight six-year window (1972-1978), giving the neighborhood a consistent age profile rather than a mix of eras.

HIAWASSEE PLACEWho HIAWASSEE PLACE is best for.
Best for
- A buyer looking for an established Orlando location with a home built in a consistent, early-1970s era rather than new construction.
- A buyer comfortable underwriting condition and mechanical age on a home rather than relying on an HOA-managed amenity set.
- A buyer working near the area's median price point of $336,000 who wants a smaller, low-turnover community.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants to tour multiple active listings side by side — there are currently none on the market here.
- A buyer who wants a community with organized common amenities, since none are identified from current listings.
- A buyer who needs a large, deep comp set to validate pricing before writing an offer.

The HIAWASSEE PLACE buying strategy.
If we were buying in HIAWASSEE PLACE 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 HIAWASSEE PLACE.
A Small, Owner-Held Pocket
At 48 homes total, Hiawassee Place is not a subdivision built for volume turnover — it is a fixed, finite inventory. With a homestead share of 56.2%, more than half the homes are owner-occupied under the homestead exemption, which typically means longer hold periods and fewer homes cycling onto the market in any given stretch. That dynamic is consistent with the current read of zero active listings and only three closings in the recent window: this is a market where supply shows up in small batches, not a steady stream.
Because FACTS show no identified community amenities, whatever draws a buyer here is the location and the home itself — lot, floor plan, updates since a 1973 median build year — not a clubhouse or pool system. Buyers should price in the reality that a home built in the early-to-mid 1970s will vary widely in mechanical age and finish level, and that variance, more than any amenity, is likely what drives which homes sell in under a month and which sit.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in HIAWASSEE PLACE. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this small, with no active listings at the moment and only a handful of recent closings to anchor value, pricing a home correctly or making a competitive offer takes access to comparable sales data most portals will not surface. Momentum tracks Hiawassee Place at the parcel level so sellers do not misprice a limited-comp market and buyers are not guessing at what condition and updates are actually worth here.
