Jon's Read · written July 14, 2026

Hillwood Condominium's pricing is set by per-unit fundamentals more than broad comparables: the median closed price sits at $162,500, working out to $130.57 per square foot across the 16 closings behind this snapshot. In a low-volume condo market like this one, condition and unit size do most of the work on price, not neighborhood-wide trends.

Right now there are zero active listings, so sellers face no direct on-market competition, while the median 48 days on market shows deals still take a bit of time to close even without competing inventory. The -8.5% year-over-year change points to softer recent pricing than a year ago, so sellers should set expectations against that pullback rather than against the +328% climb this complex has logged since 2012, and buyers watching this complex should be ready to move once something does list.

Figures in this note are as of July 14, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Hillwood right now

🟡 Balanced market. 2.6 months of supply and 40% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.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 November 12, 2026. Confidence: High (5 active and pending listings, 14 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($160K) is down 5.9% from the prior 12 months ($170K) and up 307% since 2012. With about a dozen sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending November 12.

Hillwood Condominium is a Duval County condo market in Jacksonville that trades in a narrow, low-volume band, with this snapshot drawn from 16 closings in the realmls feed as of 2026-07-11.

Best for

  • A buyer targeting the mid-$160s who is comfortable acting quickly once a unit becomes available.
  • A seller comfortable pricing off condition and square footage rather than a flood of recent comparables.
  • Someone weighing a long holding period, where the +328% since-2012 trend matters more than this year's -8.5% dip.

Probably not for

  • A buyer who wants several active listings to compare before making an offer.
  • A seller expecting last year's pricing levels rather than the current -8.5% year-over-year adjustment.
  • Anyone needing a fast, high-volume market with frequent turnover.

    What it may mean for the marketLower inventory with softer sales volume points to a thinner supply of listings across all four counties, with Clay the only one of the four showing a year-over-year price decline. The site is about 10 miles northwest of Hillwood.

    Commissioners denied 3-2 on Sept. 15 the 4,462-acre Palm Valley application near Nocatee under the state agricultural enclave law, and the county plans to fight it in court.

If we were buying in Hillwood today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Hillwood.

Best Buy
Buyers and sellers who want per-unit pricing analysis rather than a neighborhood-wide average.
Biggest Risk
Zero active listings means no current comparables to test a price against.
Sweet Spot
Buyers ready to act the moment a unit lists, given the current lack of inventory.
Avoid If
You need immediate options to tour and compare side by side.

Thin inventory, long view

With zero active listings at the time of this snapshot, there is currently nothing on the market at Hillwood Condominium to test buyer demand against. The market heat score reads 32, which lines up with the -8.5% year-over-year change: recent closings have priced softer than the year before, even as the median 48 days on market shows deals aren't moving unusually fast either.

Zoom out, though, and the picture changes: this complex has appreciated 328% since 2012. That long-run climb sits alongside the recent -8.5% yoy dip, which is the kind of gap buyers and sellers here need to reconcile, a strong multi-year trend line with a softer near-term read layered on top of it.

Why work with Momentum here

A market this thin, 16 closings, zero active listings, rewards someone who is tracking the realmls feed closely rather than relying on stale comparables. We watch the per-square-foot figure and days-on-market trend here specifically so a buyer isn't guessing at value with no competing listings to check it against, and so a seller can weigh the recent -8.5% yoy shift against the longer +328% run since 2012 before setting a number.

What it really costs to own in Hillwood

The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.

Property taxAt today's median asking price of $153,000, the first-year bill with homestead is about $2,000/yr (Duval County total millage 17.865 mills, FY2025-26, Duval County Property Appraiser 2025 final millage chart; Duval County School Board FY2025-26 adopted millage).
HOA duesMedian $483/month across 12 MLS listings (most billed monthly; 2026-11-13). Dues cover what the documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study.
Home and flood insuranceThe average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Duval County is $1,315/yr (2,001 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. Flood: of 16 listing addresses checked against the FEMA flood map, 100% sit outside the high-risk zone. Statewide, a Zone X flood policy runs about $500-$700/yr and a high-risk zone $1,200-$2,500/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not quotes).

Estimated carrying cost at the median asking price, before the mortgage: about $759/month (tax $167, HOA $483, insurance $110). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote.
