Waterset Ph 1C
Homes for Sale in Apollo Beach, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
In Waterset Ph 1C, price is a size-and-condition story. Homes here were built between 2012 and 2019, with the typical home landing around 2,970 square feet and a median just over $200 per square foot. At a median of $630,000, you are paying for square footage and a specific build era, not for waterfront novelty or new construction — so the spread between two similar-looking listings usually comes down to updates, lot, and finish level.
The market posture is patient. A median of 69 days on market means homes are not clearing in a weekend, and that gives buyers room to inspect, negotiate, and walk away from an overpriced listing. For sellers, the read is simple: price to the condition and comps from the start, because this is not a market that rewards testing a high number and waiting.
The 60-Second Overview
Waterset Ph 1C market snapshot (as of July 13, 2026): the median sale price is about $630K ($202 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 69 days on market for closed sales.

The Waterset Ph 1C buying strategy.
If we were buying in Waterset Ph 1C 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 Waterset Ph 1C.
A consistent build era with a wide condition spread
Because everything here was built within a single decade, the bones are similar across the community — floor plans, structural age, and the median home near 2,970 square feet all cluster tightly. That makes this an easier place to compare like-for-like than a neighborhood that grew in fits and starts, and it makes the median price per square foot around $202 a genuinely useful benchmark.
Where listings diverge is condition and updates. With a homestead share around 74%, many of these homes have been lived in and maintained by long-term owners, which can mean well-kept but dated interiors as often as fully refreshed ones. The 69-day median tells you the market is giving buyers time to sort the two apart, so read each home on its own finishes rather than assuming the median reflects any single listing.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Waterset Ph 1C. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
