As of November 2026, the MLS records 23 closed sales in Waverly in Orange Park, FL since 2011, the most recent in November 2025. Across Orange Park as a whole, 932 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $320,000, 40 median days on market, with 301 homes for sale today. At that median and Clay County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.05 mills, annual property tax runs about $4,820 ($4,220 with the full homestead exemption).
Waverly is a tight, one-note market in the best sense: 135 homes built across a narrow window from 2003 to 2005, with a median around 2004. When the housing stock is this consistent in age and layout, price is driven less by the floor plan and more by condition, updates, and lot. A home that has been kept current will separate itself from one still wearing its original finishes, and that gap is where the real spread in this neighborhood lives.
With a median living area near 2,484 square feet, these are substantial homes, and buyers should underwrite for a 20-plus-year-old build: roof age, HVAC, and original systems all matter here. For sellers, the message is simple — the market rewards the homes that show move-in ready, and it discounts deferred maintenance quickly. Price to condition, not to the neighborhood average.

The 60-Second Overview
Waverly is a self-contained community in Orange Park, Clay County, built out over just a few years in the mid-2000s, which gives it a coherent look and a predictable set of home types rather than a patchwork of eras.
realMLS (Northeast Florida) sales records identify 16 homes in Waverly that have changed hands since 2011, built between 2003 and 2005 (median 2004), with a median living area of about 2,352 sq ft and a typical 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout; 100% are single-family homes. Source: realMLS (Northeast Florida) closed-sale history compiled by Momentum Research; counts reflect homes with a recorded MLS sale, not every home in the community.

Who Waverly is best for.
Best for
- Buyers wanting more square footage and willing to underwrite a 20-plus-year-old build
- Long-term owner-occupants who value a stable, established subdivision over a rental-heavy area
- Renovation-minded buyers looking to buy on condition and add value through updates
Probably not for
- Buyers set on new construction or the latest floor plans and finishes
- Buyers with no budget or appetite for near-term system replacements
- Investors chasing high-turnover rental inventory rather than a hold community

The Waverly buying strategy.
If we were buying in Waverly 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 Waverly.
A single-era subdivision
The defining fact about Waverly is uniformity. A 2003–2005 build window means the homes share a construction generation — similar structural approaches, similar original systems, and floor plans of a similar vintage. That makes comparables cleaner than in mixed-age areas, but it also means the whole neighborhood is arriving at the same maintenance milestones at roughly the same time. Expect to evaluate roofs, water heaters, and HVAC systems on their second cycle.
The homestead share sits just under 60%, meaning a majority of these homes are owner-occupied rather than held as rentals or second homes. For a buyer, that generally signals a community held for the long term rather than churned; for a seller, it means your competition is other resident-owners deciding when to move, not a flood of investor inventory. Pair that with the larger median square footage and Waverly reads as a hold-and-live community more than a quick-flip play.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Waverly. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a neighborhood where every home is the same age, the winning strategy is knowing exactly which updates the market is paying for and which it is not. We price to condition, not to a blanket per-square-foot number, and we help buyers budget for the aging-systems reality of a mid-2000s build before it becomes a surprise. That is the difference between a clean deal and a renegotiation after inspection.
