Jon's Current Read

St Augustine South is pricing on condition right now. The median sits at $398,000, or $248.79 per square foot, and with only 13 active listings there is not enough inventory for a single number to tell the whole story — a renovated home and a dated one on the same street can land far apart. Prices are down 4.7% year-over-year, but that has to be read against a market that is still up 232% since 2012, so this is a pause after a long run, not a reversal of it.

For sellers, a 31-day median time on market and 3.5 months of supply put this squarely in balanced territory — not a rush, but not a sit-and-wait either. For buyers, a market heat score of 44 means there is room to negotiate on condition and terms without a bidding war, especially with so few competing listings to benchmark against.

St Augustine South right now

🟡 Balanced market. 3.7 months of supply and 18% 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: Very High (17 active and pending listings, 45 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($398K) is down 4.7% from the prior 12 months ($418K) and up 232% since 2012.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending July 14. Confidence: Very High (45 and 42 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview

St Augustine South market snapshot (as of July 14, 2026): the median sale price is about $398K ($249 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 31 days on market for closed sales, and 3.7 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 5% from the prior 12 months and up 232% since 2012, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (45 closings in the current window).

St Augustine South sits in St. Johns County within the city of St. Augustine, a small-inventory pocket where each listing tends to move the local read on price more than it would in a larger, deeper market.

Best for

  • A buyer targeting a purchase near the $398,000 median who is comfortable evaluating condition home-by-home rather than by price tier.
  • A seller comfortable with a 31-day median time on market and a balanced, 3.5-months-of-supply negotiating environment.
  • A buyer or seller who wants pricing benchmarked on price per square foot ($248.79) rather than a single headline comp.

Probably not for

  • A buyer who wants to compare a dozen similar active listings side by side — there are only 13 on the market.
  • A seller expecting the double-digit annual appreciation this area has shown since 2012 to repeat every year.
  • A buyer or seller who needs a fast, high-heat market — the 44 market heat score points to balanced, not urgent.

If we were buying in St Augustine South today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 St Augustine South.

Best Buy
Buyers and sellers who want a balanced, low-drama negotiation rather than a bidding war or a fire sale.
Biggest Risk
Only 13 active listings means thin comparables and pricing that can swing with a single closing.
Sweet Spot
Homes priced against the $248.79 per-square-foot median, not just the headline price.
Avoid If
You need a large, current pool of comparable listings to price or shop with confidence.

Why Price Per Square Foot Is the Number to Watch

With active listings in the low teens (13 as of this snapshot), St Augustine South does not generate enough monthly closings for a smooth price trend — the median price per square foot, $248.79, is a better cross-check than the headline median when comparing two specific homes here. The year-over-year dip of 4.7% is worth watching for another cycle or two before calling it a trend, given how few transactions it takes to move a small sample.

The 3.5 months of supply is the more stable read: it is a balanced-market number, not a seller's or buyer's market extreme, and it has held even as the median moved. A 31-day median days-on-market figure tells buyers that well-priced, well-presented homes are still not sitting long, despite the softer year-over-year print.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in St Augustine South. 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 4 factors (7.1). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +232% since 2012; Recent Direction -4.7% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 3.7 months of supply; Pricing Power 95.8% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.

Why work with Momentum here

A market this thin — 13 active listings, a balanced supply reading of 3.5 months — punishes generic pricing advice. We track this community's median price, price per square foot, and days-on-market snapshot by snapshot, so pricing or offer strategy is built on the current 45-day closing window here, not a countywide average that smooths over what makes St Augustine South different.

HOA, CDD & Fees

In short
  • Mandatory HOA — confirm current dues
  • Any club/amenity membership is billed separately

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.

The St. Augustine South Improvement Association (SASIA) is described on its own FAQ page as a group of resident volunteers, not a mandatory homeowners association; the FAQ does not list required membership dues.
