Homes listed or recently sold were built 1997 - 1999; 8 of 8 report an HOA (median $50/mo); none of the 8 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 31 ft). Sunrise is a community in Melbourne, Brevard County, FL. Across Melbourne as a whole, 1,127 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $385,000, 44 median days on market, with 719 homes for sale today. At that median and Brevard County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.6 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,010 ($5,380 with the full homestead exemption).

Price here is driven by condition and floor plan, not by lot after lot of new construction. This is a built-out community from the late 1990s, with homes dating between 1995 and 2000 and a median living area of roughly 2,700 square feet. That size skews the inventory toward larger single-family homes, so what a given house trades at will come down to how it has been updated over the last two-plus decades rather than any published range.
As of mid-July 2026 there are zero active listings, so there is no market to read on price at this moment. That posture cuts both ways: a seller who lists into an empty field has no direct competition, but a buyer waiting for the right home may sit on the sidelines for a while. When something does come up, expect it to move on condition and interior work, and be ready to act rather than assuming you'll have options to compare.
Figures in this note are as of July 20, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The Sunrise buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sunrise 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 Sunrise.
A built-out 1990s pocket, held long-term
The housing stock is tightly clustered in age, all built within a roughly five-year window around a 1998 median. That means consistent construction era and, generally, comparable bones from house to house. The differentiator is what owners have done since: roofs, systems, kitchens, and baths. With a median near 2,717 square feet, these are not starter footprints, and buyers should budget their diligence around aging components rather than surface finishes.
About 79% of homes carry a homestead exemption, which points to a community held by owner-occupants rather than investors. Practically, that tends to mean fewer rentals, slower turnover, and homes that come to market having been lived in and maintained rather than flipped. Community amenities reported across MLS listings include a park, playground, basketball court, and shuffleboard court; confirm current amenities and access directly with the HOA before you rely on them.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sunrise. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With no active listings, timing and access are everything. We track this community closely enough to flag a home before it becomes a bidding contest, and we'll walk you through the condition questions that actually set value on late-1990s homes of this size. If you're selling into an empty field, we'll price and position on the merits of your specific house rather than a stale comp.

What it really costs to own in Sunrise
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | Current owners' bills run a median of $3,665/yr across 6 listings here (MLS tax records, 2026-10-20). |
|---|---|
| HOA dues | Median $600/year (about $50/month) across 8 MLS listings (most billed annually; 2026-10-20). Dues cover what the documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study. |
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Brevard County is $2,348/yr (6,986 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. |
| Roof and age | Median build year 1998 across 8 listings. An original roof here would be about 28 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report, and for replacement where it fails. |
