As of November 2026, the MLS records 30 closed sales in Secret Harbor in Jacksonville, FL since 2011, the most recent in May 2026. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $390,000 to $459,900 (median $399,000), on homes of 1,828 to 2,228 sq ft. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,699 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 42 median days on market, with 4,140 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $7,130 ($6,390 with the full homestead exemption).
Secret Harbor is a small pocket within Jacksonville, and with a closings window this thin, the data is more snapshot than trend. Price here is driven far more by the individual property — its condition, its updates, its lot — than by any neighborhood-wide number you can point to. Treat any single figure as a starting question, not an answer.
For a buyer, that means underwriting the specific home in front of you rather than assuming the market sets the tempo. For a seller, it means a well-prepared, move-in-ready listing carries the pricing conversation, because there simply isn't enough recent volume to lean on comparables alone.
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

Best for

- Sellers willing to invest in presentation to lead a low-comparable market
Probably not for
- Buyers who need multiple active listings to compare before committing
- Buyers on a firm timeline who can't wait out a low-turnover pocket
- Buyers seeking a data-heavy market with abundant recent comparables to price against

The Secret Harbor buying strategy.
If we were buying in Secret Harbor 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 Secret Harbor.
A thin-data market
Because Secret Harbor turns over infrequently, condition is the single biggest lever on price. Two homes on the same street can sit far apart in value depending on updates, systems, and how they show. When comparables are scarce, the property that has done the work tends to define the ceiling, and everything else negotiates from there.
This is a place to slow down and inspect closely. Buyers should budget for due diligence and be ready to move when the right home appears, since replacements don't come along often. Sellers benefit from presenting a clean, resolved home rather than counting on a busy market to smooth over deferred items.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Secret Harbor. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a low-volume pocket like Secret Harbor, generic pricing models fall short. We work the specific property — its condition, its comparables, and its timing — and tell you plainly when a home is worth pursuing and when to wait for the next one. That candor matters most where data is thin.
