True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of October 2026, the MLS records 24 closed sales in Highsmith Landing in Jacksonville, FL since 2002, the most recent in January 2023. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 5,595 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $314,237, 43 median days on market, with 4,102 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,610 ($4,880 with the full homestead exemption).
Highsmith Landing is a small pocket of Jacksonville in Duval County, and the honest starting point is that our current snapshot shows no recorded closings in the window we're working from. That means we don't have a median price or a sales pace to anchor to, so anyone quoting you a hard number for this community right now is guessing.
For a buyer, that absence cuts two ways: less recent comparable data makes pricing a negotiation of condition and specifics rather than a settled market rate, so bring patience and a willingness to underwrite each home on its own merits. For a seller, it means pricing here is a case-by-case exercise, and you'll want current, address-level guidance before you set a number.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The Highsmith Landing buying strategy.
If we were buying in Highsmith Landing 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 Highsmith Landing.
Reading a market with no closings on the board
The single most important fact about Highsmith Landing today is what's missing: our snapshot carries no closings for the current window. In a thinly traded community, a market can look frozen simply because nothing has changed hands recently, not because demand has vanished. The correct response is to widen the lens — look at what's active, what's pending, and how individual homes are positioned rather than leaning on a summary statistic that doesn't exist here.
Because there's no median to cite, value in Highsmith Landing is going to be driven by the particulars: the condition of the specific home, its lot, its finishes, and its position within the community. Expect a wider spread than a data-rich neighborhood would show, and treat any home as its own negotiation. This is exactly the environment where a careful, address-by-address read matters more than a headline number.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Highsmith Landing. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
