Market Heat
Over the 12 months ending 2026-10-20, 7 recorded sales closed at a median of $60,000, $74 per square foot, a median 49 days on market, sellers accepting 89% of original asking (-48% versus the prior year). At the median price and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $1,070.
North Lavilla's numbers are set by a housing stock that spans generations under one price point. Homes here date back to 1904, with the newest construction completed in 2024, and the median year built sits at 1953 — that age spread is the single biggest driver of value in this market. At a median price of $70,000 and $87.50 per square foot, on a median home size of 1,176 square feet, the math only holds together if a buyer is honest about the condition and systems they are actually purchasing, not just the address.
The current read on the market: a median 49 days on market, a market heat score of 38, and a median price down 23.5% year over year — all pointing to a slower, buyer-leaning environment right now. That said, this snapshot is built from just 5 recent closings, so any single data point deserves caution rather than treatment as a firm trend line. For sellers, that combination means pricing has to be tied tightly to actual condition and true comps, not to where the market was a year ago.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Confidence: Low (7 and 4 sales in the two windows).
What's unique here: the median sale price is about 81% below the typical Duval County sale ($60K vs $310K, trailing 12 months, realMLS records).

County records show 77 qualified sales in North Lavilla across 2024–2025 (51 in 2024, 26 in 2025), median $116,000 — the last recorded sale per parcel on the Florida DOR 2025 assessment roll, independent of the MLS.
North Lavilla is a community of 1,157 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1904 and 2024 (median 1953), with a median living area of about 1,186 square feet. 30% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
North Lavilla sits in the city of Jacksonville, Duval County, with roughly 1,200 homes in the current inventory spanning construction from 1904 to 2024. No community amenities are currently listed in the MLS record for this area, so the case for buying here rests on the home and the lot, not shared features.
Who North Lavilla is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a renovation budget who want to buy well below typical per-square-foot cost.
- Investors comfortable underwriting on a small, recent closing sample rather than years of trend data.
- Buyers prioritizing a low entry price over turnkey, no-work condition.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need financing contingent on a fully updated, move-in-ready condition report.
- Anyone relying on a strong, consistent year-over-year appreciation trend to justify the purchase.
- Buyers who want a large, uniformly aged inventory to comparison-shop against.

The North Lavilla buying strategy.
If we were buying in North Lavilla 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 North Lavilla.
A Wide Age Range, A Narrow Price Point
At $87.50 per square foot and a $70,000 median price on a median 1,176 square feet, North Lavilla prices well below what a per-square-foot comparison suggests elsewhere in Duval County. That gap is the opportunity, but it is also the catch: with construction dates stretching from 1904 to 2024 and a median year built of 1953, two homes at the same price can be in very different physical condition. Underwriting here has to happen at the property level, not the neighborhood average.
With under a third of homes carrying a homestead exemption, non-owner-occupant activity is a meaningful part of the buyer pool, which tends to track with investor and renovation interest rather than long-hold owner-occupant demand. A market heat score of 38, a median 49 days on market, and prices down 23.5% year over year all support a slower pace of trading right now — workable for patient buyers, but again, this read leans on just 5 closings, so it should be treated as directional rather than precise.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in North Lavilla. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here
A market spanning construction from 1904 to 2024 with a thin closing sample of just 5 recent sales is not a market you price off an average — it is one you walk, block by block and property by property. Momentum's role in North Lavilla is condition-first diligence: verifying what a given home's systems, age, and updates actually justify against the $70,000 median and $87.50-per-square-foot benchmark, rather than assuming any listing fits the neighborhood norm.
