True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Homes listed or recently sold were built 1972 - 1987; 7 of 7 report an HOA (median $229/mo); none of the 7 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 45 ft). The Springs is a community in Longwood, Seminole County, FL. Across Longwood as a whole, 659 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $475,000, 25 median days on market, with 188 homes for sale today. At that median and Seminole County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.18 mills, annual property tax runs about $7,210 ($6,610 with the full homestead exemption).

Price in The Springs is driven by the house, not the list. This is an established community of 887 homes built between 1971 and 2012, with the median home dating to 1978 and running about 2,036 square feet. On homes this age, condition and updates set the number far more than square footage does, so expect a wide spread between a renovated house and one that needs work. There is one median price figure to anchor to and no price range in the data, so treat condition as the swing factor.
The market posture right now is thin. Zero active listings and a single closing in the most recent window means there is very little to react to on either side. For sellers, that scarcity can work in your favor when a well-prepared home hits the market. For buyers, patience and readiness matter more than speed - you may wait for the right house, then need to move decisively when it appears.
Figures in this note are as of October 26, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
The 60-Second Overview
The Springs is a gated, amenity-heavy community in Longwood with a mature housing stock and a high ownership base - roughly three-quarters of homes carry a homestead exemption, which points to a community of long-term owners rather than rapid turnover.

Who The Springs is best for.
Best for
- Buying to settle in for the long term, given the high homestead share and low turnover
- Buyers who want built-in amenities - pool, tennis, racquetball, fitness, stables, clubhouse - without leaving the gate
- Buyers comfortable taking on an older home and budgeting for updates to systems and finishes
Probably not for
- Needing to buy immediately - there is currently no active inventory to tour
- Wanting new construction or a low-maintenance, HOA-free setup
- Looking for a quick-flip resale in a fast-moving, high-turnover market

The The Springs buying strategy.
If we were buying in The Springs 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 The Springs.
A gated, amenity-rich enclave built around its grounds
The amenity list here is unusually deep for Seminole County: stables, tennis and racquetball courts, a pool, clubhouse, fitness center, playground, park, and recreation facilities, all inside a gated, deed-restricted community with security. That breadth is part of what you are buying, and it comes with an HOA and maintenance structure - confirm current access, fees, and rules directly with the association before you write an offer.
The homes themselves span four decades of construction, so no two sections feel identical. With a median build year of 1978, many homes reflect their era in layout and systems; inspection discipline matters, and the homes that have been thoughtfully updated will command a premium over those that haven't. The high homestead share and absence of active inventory both suggest owners here tend to stay put.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Springs. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

What it really costs to own in The Springs
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| HOA dues | Median $2,750/year (about $229/month) across 7 MLS listings (most billed annually; 2026-11-14). 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 Seminole County is $1,572/yr (1,203 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. |
| Roof and age | Median build year 1974 across 7 listings. An original roof here would be about 52 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. |
