Lake Clair Place
Homes for Sale in Clermont, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Lake Clair Place is a compact, built-out pocket of 86 homes in Clermont, with construction running from 1996 to 2012 and a median build year of 1998. That vintage matters: pricing here is driven less by square footage on paper than by condition and updates. A home carrying its original systems and finishes will trade very differently from one that has been renovated, so expect a wide spread around any headline number. The median living area sits at 1,678 square feet, which tells you this is a right-sized detached-home community rather than a move-up estate enclave.
The ownership profile is telling. With roughly 73 percent of homes homesteaded, most owners live here rather than rent, which historically means fewer listings hit the market at once and less investor churn. For a seller, that scarcity can work in your favor when your home is genuinely turnkey. For a buyer, it means patience and readiness — when the right updated home lists, you want financing lined up, because you may not get a second identical option quickly.
Who Lake Clair Place is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting an efficient sub-1,700-square-foot home who value a stable, established setting
- Buyers willing to pay up for a turnkey home with documented recent system updates
- Owner-occupants planning to stay put rather than flip
Probably not for
- Buyers who want new construction or the latest floor plans and finishes
- Buyers needing significantly more than the median 1,678 square feet
- Investors chasing high rental turnover in a heavily owner-occupied community

The Lake Clair Place buying strategy.
If we were buying in Lake Clair 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 Lake Clair Place.
Condition is the whole story
In a neighborhood where homes were built between 1996 and 2012 and cluster around a 1998 median, the biggest variable between two comparable floor plans is what has been done to them since. Roofs, HVAC, water heaters, kitchens, and baths all fall inside the normal replacement window for homes of this age, so the diligence question is not whether updates are needed but which ones have already been handled. Ask for dates on every major system.
At a median 1,678 square feet, these are efficient, manageable homes. That size tends to appeal to buyers who want a single-story or modest two-story footprint without the carrying cost of a larger house. Because the community is small and largely owner-occupied, comparable sales are thin, which makes a careful, condition-adjusted pricing analysis more important here than in a large subdivision with constant turnover.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Lake Clair Place. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
A neighborhood of 86 homes with limited turnover doesn't give you the comp volume of a big subdivision, so a lazy price-per-foot estimate will mislead you. We price and evaluate on condition and systems — what's original, what's been replaced, and how that stacks against the handful of relevant local sales — and we tell you plainly when a listing is priced for its updates or priced for wishful thinking.
