Market Heat

Murray Terrace's median sale price sits at $150,000, one of the more accessible entry points in Duval County. That number is doing a lot of work covering a housing stock built anywhere from 1913 to 2024, with a median build year of 1944 and a median living area of 1,355.5 square feet, priced at $145.18 per square foot. In a mix this age-spread, condition and updates on the individual property drive value far more than any neighborhood average.
The current market posture is soft. A median 113 days on market paired with a -21.7% year-over-year move points to a buyer's market, and with zero active listings tracked as of 2026-07-14 and only 7 closings in the recent window, there isn't much live inventory or trading volume to read from either direction. Sellers need realistic pricing and patience; buyers who find something here typically have room to negotiate.

The 60-Second Overview
Murray Terrace market snapshot (as of August 5, 2026): the median sale price is about $150K ($145 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 113 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is down 17% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (7 closings in the current window).
Murray Terrace is a community of 492 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1913 and 2024 (median 1944.0), with a median living area of about 1,356 square feet. 58% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Murray Terrace is an established Jacksonville pocket where the housing stock spans more than a century of construction, from homes built in 1913 through ones finished in 2024, so no two listings tell quite the same story. With 492 homes total and 57.6% carrying a homestead exemption, it reads as a base of owner-occupied properties rather than a market driven by turnover.

Who Murray Terrace is best for.
Best for
- Buyers working with a tighter budget who want to stay inside Duval County
- Buyers willing to take on a home built decades ago and evaluate condition property by property
- Investors comfortable with a slow-absorption market and a thin resale data set
Probably not for
- Buyers who need move-in-ready systems and finishes without renovation work
- Buyers on a tight closing timeline who can't absorb a long days-on-market wait
- Buyers who want to lean on a deep set of recent comparable sales — the closings sample here is currently too small for that

The Murray Terrace buying strategy.
If we were buying in Murray Terrace 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 Murray Terrace.
An Older, Slower Corner of Duval
Of Murray Terrace's 492 homes, 57.6% carry a homestead exemption, which points toward a base of owner-occupied properties rather than a market dominated by short-term holds or heavy investor churn. With a median year built of 1944 and construction running as recent as 2024, the stock ranges from early-20th-century homes to recent infill, so a property-by-property look at condition and any updates matters more here than in a more uniform community.
Pace is the other defining feature. A market heat score of 14 and a median 113 days on market both signal slow absorption, and with no active listings tracked as of 2026-07-14, there's little live inventory to gauge real-time pricing tension against. The -21.7% year-over-year move is worth noting, but against only 7 closings in the window, it's a small enough sample that a single sale can swing the trend meaningfully — read it as directional, not definitive.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Murray Terrace. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Momentum Buy Score.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Murray Terrace 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 3 factors (2.5). Basis: Recent Direction -16.7% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 58% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 75.0% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a stock this age-diverse, at $145.18 per square foot with pricing that varies property to property rather than following a single neighborhood curve, an agent who evaluates each home's condition and construction era matters more than one who quotes the median. Momentum tracks the closings that do happen here, thin as that window currently is, so pricing conversations start from actual sales data rather than guesswork.
