As of November 2026, the MLS records 19 closed sales in Mattie Skinner in Jacksonville, FL since 2012, the most recent in February 2026. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,703 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 43 median days on market, with 4,150 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,450 ($4,710 with the full homestead exemption).
What sets price in Mattie Skinner is condition, not location premium. This is an older stretch of Jacksonville — the housing stock spans more than a century, with a median build year of 1955 — so the spread between a renovated home and one needing work is wide. There is no single number that captures value here; a buyer has to read each house on its own terms.
With 75 homes in the snapshot and roughly three-quarters carrying a homestead exemption, this reads as an owner-occupied pocket rather than an investor churn. That tends to keep turnover measured. For a seller, the takeaway is that presentation and updates carry the pricing conversation; for a buyer, it means underwriting the work a given home still needs.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview
Mattie Skinner is an established Jacksonville pocket in Duval County where the homes are mostly older and mostly owner-occupied, so the real variable is condition rather than square footage or address.

The Mattie Skinner buying strategy.
If we were buying in Mattie Skinner 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 Mattie Skinner.
An older stock priced on condition
The build range runs from 1901 to 2022, but the median year built of 1955 tells the truer story: this is a mature area with a handful of newer infill homes scattered among much older ones. Median living area sits around 1,551 square feet, so expect efficient, mid-sized footprints rather than sprawling floor plans. Layouts, systems, and updates will vary house to house.
The homestead share near 74% signals stability — most homes here are lived in, not flipped or rented in volume. For a buyer, that means fewer turnkey listings and more homes where you are pricing in your own scope of work. Inspect carefully: in stock this old, the difference between two similar-looking homes is often what is behind the walls.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Mattie Skinner. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In an area this condition-driven, the median price alone will mislead you. We walk each home with you, separate cosmetic from structural, and price the work realistically before you write an offer — so you are buying on facts, not on a listing photo.
