Jon's Current Read

Union Investment is an older Jacksonville pocket where the housing stock spans from 1904 to 2024, with a median build year of 1949. That range tells the real story: price here is driven far less by any single number than by condition, renovation history, and how much original structure remains. Two homes on the same block can sell for very different figures depending on whether the systems have been updated. Expect a wide spread rather than a tidy band.

With a median living area around 1,228 square feet, these are compact homes, and the homestead share sitting near 26% signals a market with meaningful investor and non-owner-occupant presence. For buyers, that means competition from people running the numbers as rentals or flips; for sellers, it means a well-updated, move-in-ready home stands out against a backdrop of project houses. Bring a clear-eyed inspection budget on the older end of the inventory.

Best for

  • Investors underwriting for rental yield who can price renovation scope accurately
  • Buyers on a modest-footprint budget willing to trade size for location and character
  • Renovation-minded buyers who want to build value through updates rather than pay for them upfront

Probably not for

  • Buyers who need large, contemporary square footage
  • Anyone wanting a uniform, new-construction subdivision with predictable comps
  • Buyers unwilling to budget for inspections and updates on pre-war construction

If we were buying in Union Investment 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 Union Investment.

Best Buy
Buyers comfortable evaluating older homes on condition, not just listing photos.
Biggest Risk
Wide variation in build era means inspection surprises on the older stock.
Sweet Spot
A renovated compact home that stands out against project-house inventory.
Avoid If
You want large square footage or a uniform, predictable subdivision.

Age, size, and the condition premium

The defining fact of Union Investment is age dispersion. A median year built of 1949 inside a 1904–2024 range means you are shopping across generations of construction under one community banner. That has practical consequences: foundation type, wiring, plumbing, and roof age vary enormously, so no two comps are truly interchangeable without walking them. The homes are also modest in footprint, with a median near 1,228 square feet, which favors buyers who want something manageable over sprawling square footage.

The homestead share of roughly 26% points to a substantial portion of non-owner-occupied property. Practically, that shapes both supply and pricing behavior — you will encounter homes positioned for rental yield alongside owner-updated houses. A renovated home here competes against unrenovated stock, which is where the condition premium lives. Underwrite the older listings for the work they actually need, not the finished photos next door.

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

Why work with Momentum here

We walk the properties, price against true comps rather than surface impressions, and tell you plainly when a listing's asking price reflects potential the structure has not earned yet.
