Wild Heron Phase XIV is a thin-data market right now, with only 4 closings in the current window and a median price of $927,500. With that few transactions, the median tells you the price tier this pocket trades in more than it tells you a precise value for any one home — condition, lot, and finish level are doing most of the work deal to deal.

The median days on market sits at just over 147, which points to a deliberate sales process rather than a fast-moving list-and-sell environment. Sellers here should price with room for a longer marketing runway, and buyers who find something that fits should expect to negotiate on terms and timeline rather than assume there is competing pressure to move fast.

Figures in this note are as of July 28, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview

Wild Heron market snapshot (as of September 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $1.05M, and a median 37 days on market for closed sales.

In ZIP 32413 (Panama City Beach), 1,569 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $445K, down 0.1% year over year, with a median 79 days on market. Right now 1,074 active and 177 pending listings put supply at about 7.3 months — a buyer's market. See the live ZIP 32413 housing market and the Bay County market.

County records show 7 qualified sales in Wild Heron across 2024–2025 (6 in 2024, 1 in 2025), median $795,000 — the last recorded sale per parcel on the Florida DOR 2025 assessment roll, independent of the MLS.

Wild Heron is a community of 24 homes in Panama City Beach, Bay County, built between 2005 and 2024 (median 2013.5), with a median living area of about 2,702 square feet. 34% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Wild Heron Phase XIV sits in Panama City Beach within Bay County, trading in the upper-$900K price tier with a slower, more deliberate sales cadence than a high-turnover market.

Best for

  • Buyers with a budget in the upper-$900K range who are comfortable with a slower, negotiated purchase process.
  • Sellers who can price patiently and market over a longer window rather than expecting a fast sale.
  • Buyers who want to verify amenities and condition directly rather than rely on assumed community features.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who need a fast close and limited negotiation runway.
  • Buyers relying on a large comp set to validate price with precision.
  • Buyers assuming specific community amenities without confirming them directly, since none are currently identified from MLS listings.

If we were buying in Wild Heron 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 Wild Heron.

Best Buy
Buyers targeting the upper-$900K tier in Panama City Beach who are prepared for a longer, more deliberate sales process.
Biggest Risk
With only 4 closings on record, the median price should be treated as a reference, not a guarantee of value.
Sweet Spot
Buyers and sellers who value a longer runway to negotiate over one built for a fast transaction.
Avoid If
Avoid if you need a quick close or are relying on published amenities that current MLS data does not confirm.

Reading a thin market correctly

With only 4 closings in the current window, this is not a market where you can point to a tight comp set and expect it to hold. The $927,500 median is real, but at this transaction count it reflects the specific homes that sold, not necessarily the full range of what might trade here next. Anyone pricing a listing or structuring an offer should treat that figure as a reference point, not a formula.

The median 147.5 days on market is the more telling number. It suggests homes here are not moving on early momentum — buyers are taking time to evaluate, and sellers are holding firm on price rather than chasing a fast close. No community amenities are currently identified from active MLS listings, so any amenity claims should be verified directly rather than assumed from the listing data alone.

“

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