Jon's Current Read

The Commons at Frederica trades on very few data points right now — just 11 closings in this window — so the headline numbers move fast and should be read with that caveat in mind. The median price of $625,000 and median price per square foot of $285.03 reflect whatever mix of homes happened to sell, not necessarily a shift in what the community is worth.

The 26.3% year-over-year decline is almost certainly a function of that thin sample rather than a broad repricing, and it sits against a 171% gain since 2012 that shows the longer arc has been strongly upward. With a market heat score of 34 and a median 97 days on market, this is a slower-moving, condition-and-negotiation-driven environment right now — sellers should price to the comparable sale in hand, and buyers have room to negotiate on terms and timeline.

The Commons at Frederica right now

🟡 Balanced market. 3.6 months of supply and 0% 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 ScoutMLS® records, as of September 20, 2026. Confidence: Medium (3 active and pending listings, 11 closed sales in 12 months).

🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($625K) is down 26.3% from the prior 12 months ($848K) and up 132% since 2012. With about a dozen sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level ScoutMLS® closed sales, 12-month windows ending September 20. Confidence: Low (11 and 4 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview

The Commons at Frederica market snapshot (as of September 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $625K ($285 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 97 days on market for closed sales, and 3.6 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 26% from the prior 12 months and up 132% since 2012, computed from record-level ScoutMLS® closed sales (11 closings in the current window).

The Commons at Frederica sits within St. Simons Island in Glynn County, an established address where recent activity has been light enough that any single closing can swing the reported median. That makes this a market to evaluate house by house rather than by headline trend.

Best for

  • Buying with a longer time horizon, where the community's 171% gain since 2012 matters more than this year's single reported swing.
  • Comfortable doing extra diligence on comps given the small closing count, rather than relying on one headline median.
  • Looking for negotiating leverage in a market with a 97-day median time on market and a low heat score.

Probably not for

  • Needing a large, active inventory of comparable listings to choose from before deciding.
  • Expecting amenity-driven community features — none are currently identified in MLS listings here.
  • Wanting a fast-clearing, high-competition transaction rather than a slower, negotiation-paced one.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For

Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending September 20 of each year, from record-level ScoutMLS® closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($625K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($848K) IS the -26.3% one-year change.

Windows contain 4 to 17 sales each (11 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings.

If we were buying in The Commons at Frederica 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 The Commons at Frederica.

Best Buy
Buyers targeting an established St. Simons Island address and comfortable pricing off a small, closely-read comp set.
Biggest Risk
Thin data — with only 11 closings, the reported median and year-over-year change can shift sharply with the next sale.
Sweet Spot
Move-in-ready to lightly-dated homes priced near the area's median per-square-foot figure tend to draw the clearest interest.
Avoid If
Avoid if you need a fast, competitive-bid transaction — this market is not moving at that pace right now.

Reading a thin data set correctly

With only 11 closings in the current window, The Commons at Frederica does not generate the kind of statistical depth that supports confident trend calls. A 26.3% year-over-year drop in median price is real as reported, but in a market this size it can just as easily reflect a shift in which homes sold — smaller, older, or more dated properties closing instead of larger or recently updated ones — as any actual softening in value.

The more telling number may be the 171% gain since 2012, which points to sustained long-term demand for this address even as short-term readings bounce around. A median of 97 days on market and a market heat score of 34 both describe a market that is not moving urgently in either direction — homes here are being evaluated on their own merits, at their own pace, rather than competed for.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Commons at Frederica. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

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 (5.6).

Why work with Momentum here

A market built on 11 closings punishes anyone who reads the headline stat instead of the underlying comps. We pull the actual recent sales in The Commons at Frederica, weigh condition and lot specifics against the median price per square foot, and price or offer accordingly — rather than anchoring to a number that may not hold up against the next closing.
