The facts we have on Meadowbrook are thin: a Gainesville community in Alachua County, current as of mid-2026, pulled from the realMLS feed. Without a median price, days-on-market, or inventory count in front of me, I won't invent one. What I can say is that in a market this specific, price is set at the home level — condition, lot, and updates do the heavy lifting rather than any single neighborhood number.
For now, treat any price you see elsewhere as unverified until we run the actual comparables. Buyers should come ready to judge each listing on its own merits; sellers should expect pricing to be built from recent, like-for-like sales in and around the community, not from a headline figure.

🟡 Balanced market. 3.0 months of supply and 0% 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 Stellar MLS records, as of August 2, 2026. Confidence: Low (1 active and pending listings, 4 closed sales in 12 months).

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($302K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 2 to 21 sales each (4 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 1990 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Meadowbrook buying strategy.
If we were buying in Meadowbrook 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 Meadowbrook.
A closer look at the Meadowbrook market
At a median of $153 per square foot, Meadowbrook prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.
Inventory runs at 3.0 months of supply, a balanced market. Homes that do trade take a median 175 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.
The housing stock is 3,468 homes built between 1900 and 2024, and 63% of parcels are homesteaded — the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Meadowbrook. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Meadowbrook buys, holds, and resells. Momentum Research; not an appraisal.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 4 factors (5.5). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +120% since 2012; Liquidity & Demand 3.0 months of supply; Owner Commitment 63% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 86.6% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here

In Meadowbrook that means we pull the actual comparables before we price anything — for you as a buyer or as a seller — and we walk each home individually rather than leaning on a community-wide average. That discipline is the whole point of working with us here.
