True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Market Heat
Price here is driven by condition and vintage more than by any single formula. With a median build year of 1984 and homes stretching from 1912 to 2024, Marsh Creek is not a uniform subdivision — it is a wide span of eras, and that spread shows up in the median of $287,000 and a median of $180.10 per square foot. Two homes at the same address size can trade very differently depending on updates, so the number that matters is what a specific house has had done to it.
The current posture is balanced, leaning cool. A market heat score of 47 and a median 38 days on market say sellers are not naming their price, and the year-over-year figure is down 3.9%. That is a buyer who has time to inspect and negotiate, and a seller who should price to the comps rather than to last year's optimism. The longer arc is still constructive — up 145% since 2012 — but recent softness is the reality of the moment.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 11 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($287K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($298K) IS the -3.9% one-year change.
Windows contain 5 to 18 sales each (7 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Source: Data provided by realMLS. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
The real cost & risk here
Before the list price, the Florida math the portals skip. These are Duval County typicals — your exact home, flood zone, and insurance quote will vary, so verify each before you offer.

A wide vintage span in one community
The defining trait here is age range. A century-plus separates the oldest home from the newest, and the median lands in the mid-1980s. Practically, that means your due diligence changes house to house — roof, systems, and prior renovation history carry more weight than the headline median price. A 1984 median build is old enough that deferred maintenance and updates are the real value story, not the square footage alone.
Ownership skews long-term: roughly 77% of homes carry a homestead exemption, which tends to signal owner-occupants who hold rather than flip. Combined with a cooler heat score and 38-day median marketing time, that points to a market where turnover is measured, listings sit long enough to evaluate, and a patient buyer can transact without a bidding war.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this varied in age and condition, the median tells you almost nothing about the house in front of you. We underwrite each listing on its own merits — what has been updated, what has not, and how that reconciles with the $287,000 median and current 38-day pace — so you are negotiating from the actual condition of a property rather than a neighborhood average.
