Market Heat
Silver Sands Estates covers 192 homes in Keystone Heights, with construction spanning 1924 to 2024 and a median build year of 1996 — a genuine mix of older and newer stock that does most of the explaining when it comes to price. The median sale here is $277,500, or about $155.28 a square foot on a typical 1,397-square-foot home, and with only 2 active listings against that base of 192 homes, condition and lot specifics move the number more than any single feature.
The recent read points to a market cooling off a stronger stretch: prices are down 7% year-over-year on 8 closings in the current window, even as homes that do sell move in a median of 14.5 days — a sign that well-priced, ready properties still clear quickly while others sit. Months of supply near 3.0 keeps this in balanced territory, not a seller's runaway or a buyer's standoff, and a homestead share of 38% suggests owner-occupied properties are setting the pace here rather than investor turnover.

🔴 Seller-leaning market. 1.7 months of supply and 50% of the inventory already under contract give sellers the pressure advantage.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 August 21, 2026. Confidence: Medium (2 active and pending listings, 7 closed sales in 12 months).
🟢 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($300K) is up 14.3% from the prior 12 months ($262K).

Who Silver Sands Estates is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a target budget near the $277,500 median who want flexibility on home age and style rather than a single build era.
- Buyers prepared to move decisively when one of the community's limited active listings fits, given the median 14.5-day time on market.
- Buyers evaluating a purchase primarily on the home and lot itself, since no shared community amenities are part of the value equation.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a defined roster of community amenities as part of what they are paying for.
- Buyers expecting a large active inventory to compare against — only 2 listings are on the market at a time.
- Buyers assuming last year's pricing still holds; the market here is down 7% year-over-year.

The Silver Sands Estates buying strategy.
If we were buying in Silver Sands Estates 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.
Come strong and clean. Homes here move, so lead with your best terms and financing ready rather than a low anchor.
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 Silver Sands Estates.
A wide build spectrum, a narrow window to buy
With just 2 active listings across 192 homes, there is not much on the shelf at any given moment, and the pace backs that up: a median 14.5 days on market against 8 closings in the current window and 3.0 months of supply. That combination is what keeps the market classified as balanced rather than tilted hard toward either side — sellers are not commanding a bidding war, but buyers are not waiting out a glut either.
Price mechanics here run through condition and vintage more than a shared feature set: the median sale of $277,500 works out to $155.28 per square foot on a median 1,397-square-foot home, and with no community amenities identified from current MLS listings, the value case is built on the home and lot themselves. The 7% year-over-year pull-back is worth registering as a market-wide adjustment rather than a signal about any one property, and a 38% homestead share indicates a meaningful share of owner-occupied properties among the 192 homes in the community.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Silver Sands Estates. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here

We track Silver Sands Estates closely enough to know which of the 192 homes are trading near the $277,500 median on genuine merit and which are priced off condition or lot factors that a listing photo will not show you.
