Market Heat

Pearl Crest's pricing story starts with the housing stock itself: homes here span build years from 1887 to 2024, with a median year built of 1938 and a median size of 1,437.5 square feet. That kind of range, some homes nearly a century and a half old, others brand new, means condition and updates matter more than any single comp. At a $118.54 median price per square foot and a $145,000 median sale price, this is one of the more accessible entry points into Duval County housing, and the age mix explains a lot of it.
The current read is a balanced market: 3 months of supply, a median 84.5 days on market, and a market heat score of 36. Year-over-year the median is up 61.1%, and it has climbed 1,380% since 2012, so this market has clearly moved over time. But with just 1 active listing and a median built on only 4 recent closings, the current data set is thin. Sellers and buyers both need to price off recent, verified comps rather than lean on the headline trend lines.

🟡 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 realMLS records, as of July 14, 2026. Confidence: Low (1 active and pending listings, 4 closed sales in 12 months).
🟢 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($145K) is up 61.1% from the prior 12 months ($90K) and up 1380% since 2012. With about 3 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending July 14. Confidence: Low (4 and 5 sales in the two windows).

Who Pearl Crest is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a median price point around $145,000 for an entry-level Duval County purchase.
- Buyers open to older construction, since homes here date as far back as 1887, and the maintenance considerations that come with it.
- Buyers or investors comfortable pricing off a thin, closely-verified comp set of 4 recent closings rather than a deep active inventory.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want several active listings to compare side by side before offering; Pearl Crest currently has just 1.
- Buyers set on newer construction only; while some homes here were built as recently as 2024, the median year built is 1938.
- Buyers who need documented community amenities as part of the purchase, since none are currently identified in MLS listings.

The Pearl Crest buying strategy.
If we were buying in Pearl Crest 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 Pearl Crest.
Old Stock, Thin Inventory
Pearl Crest's 528 homes were built across nearly a century and a half, from 1887 through 2024, with a median year built of 1938. That is an unusually wide construction window for a single community, and it means the market here is not uniform: a home built in 2024 and one built in 1887 can sit on the same street with very different systems, finishes, and maintenance histories. The median living area is 1,437.5 square feet and the median price per square foot is $118.54, both consistent with older, smaller-footprint homes anchoring the pricing.
About 43.7% of homes in Pearl Crest carry a homestead exemption, the tax designation tied to a primary residence, which is a useful signal about how much of the housing stock is owner-occupied versus investment-held. Current MLS listings identify no community amenities. Combined with just 1 active listing and a median price built on 4 closings, this is a market where the data set is thin, so every transaction carries more weight than it would in a deeper market.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Pearl Crest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

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 5 factors (6.3). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +1380% since 2012; Recent Direction +61.1% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 3.0 months of supply; Owner Commitment 44% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 84.7% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
