Homes for Sale in Howey In The Hills, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, Venezia South in Howey In The Hills, FL has 1 home for sale. Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-12, 8 recorded sales closed at a median of $412,500, $196 per square foot, a median 57 days on market, sellers accepting 96% of original asking (-12% versus the prior year). Homes listed or recently sold were built 2016–2020; 11 of 11 report an HOA (median $60/mo); none of the 4 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 93 ft). At the median price and Lake County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.65 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,870 ($6,200 with the full homestead exemption).
Venezia South is a compact, newer subdivision in Howey In The Hills, with homes built between 2014 and 2022 and a median around 2018. Nothing here is old, so price is driven far less by vintage and far more by condition, finish level, and square footage — the median living area sits at about 2,323 sq ft, and the median works out near $195 a foot. With a median price of $405,000, the spread you see between listings comes down to how a specific home has been kept and upgraded, not the year on the permit.
The current posture is soft. Prices are down 13.8% year over year, and the market heat score of 46 points to a balanced-to-slightly-cool setting rather than a bidding-war environment. That said, the median days on market is just over 26, so well-priced, well-presented homes still move. For buyers, that combination means room to negotiate without the pressure of a frenzied market. For sellers, it means pricing to the current comps — not last year's — is the difference between a clean sale and a stale listing. Read the softness with caution: the closing window here is thin, so any single sale can swing the numbers.

🟡 Balanced market. 1.5 months of supply and 67% 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 Stellar MLS records, as of September 12, 2026. Confidence: Medium (3 active and pending listings, 8 closed sales in 12 months).
🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($412K) is down 12.2% from the prior 12 months ($470K).

The Venezia South buying strategy.
If we were buying in Venezia South 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 Venezia South.
A newer pocket in a small-market setting
Because every home here was built within roughly an eight-year band, buyers are comparing floor plans and upkeep more than architectural eras. That makes condition the swing factor: two homes of similar size can justify meaningfully different prices based on kitchens, flooring, and outdoor space. Use the median PPSF near $195 as a sanity check, but expect real homes to land above or below it depending on how they show.
Read the data with the small sample in mind. With only four closings in the window, the median price, days on market, and year-over-year figures can move sharply on a single transaction. Treat the 13.8% year-over-year decline as a direction to investigate, not a precise mark-to-market — the underlying signal is a cooler market, and the exact percentage is less reliable than the trend it points to.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Venezia South. 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 (6.9). Basis: Recent Direction -12.2% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 1.5 months of supply; Owner Commitment 87% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 96.1% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here

We can walk a home against the handful of recent sales, tell you where its condition places it relative to that median PPSF, and price or offer accordingly instead of leaning on a small, noisy average. In a balanced market like this one, disciplined pricing and clear-eyed negotiation matter more than momentum.
