Silverleaf
Homes for Sale in Jacksonville, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 19 closed sales in Silverleaf in Jacksonville, FL since 2001, the most recent in October 2025. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 8,846 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $305,375, 44 median days on market, with 2,385 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,460 ($4,720 with the full homestead exemption).
Silverleaf is a large, still-building master-planned community in the St. Johns County growth corridor, and that changes how you read price here. With only one closing in the current window, there is not enough recent transaction volume to anchor a hard market read, so treat any single number as a snapshot, not a trend.
For buyers, thin closing data means you lean on standing inventory and builder pricing rather than a deep comp set — bring patience and verify condition on every home. For sellers, it means positioning against new-construction alternatives matters as much as recent resales; a well-prepared home has room to stand out precisely because the resale sample is small.
The 60-Second Overview
Silverleaf is one of the region's newer master-planned communities, where much of the housing stock is recent construction and the resale market is still forming. That youth is the defining context: you are often comparing homes against active builder inventory nearby.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Momentum Research figures are our own analysis. This page describes homes, pricing and community attributes, not residents.
Who Silverleaf is best for.
Best for
- Buyers who prefer recent construction and will weigh resale against builder options
- Buyers with flexible timelines who can wait for the right home rather than the first one
- Sellers willing to prep and stage to stand out against new-construction competition
Probably not for
- Buyers who need an established resale market with a long transaction history
- Buyers seeking a fully mature, built-out neighborhood with no active construction nearby
- Sellers expecting to price off a deep set of recent neighborhood comps

The Silverleaf buying strategy.
If we were buying in Silverleaf 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 Silverleaf.
A new-build market still finding its resale footing
Because Silverleaf is actively growing, the trade-off buyers weigh is resale versus builder. A resale can offer finished landscaping, window treatments, and a shorter timeline; new construction offers customization and warranty. Neither is automatically the better value here — it comes down to condition, lot, and how the individual home is priced.
With just one closing in the window, we do not have the volume to call price direction with confidence. That argues for underwriting each home on its own merits — recent updates, lot position, and how it stacks against nearby standing inventory — rather than leaning on a broad neighborhood average.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Silverleaf. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a low-data, new-construction environment, the edge is legwork: knowing which builder phases are releasing, what standing inventory actually looks like in person, and how a given resale should be priced against it. We do that comparison home by home rather than relying on a thin comp set, so you are negotiating from what is real on the ground today.
