About this home

Jacksonville

This spacious 3BR/2BA home (2,744 sq ft) is ready for a full rehab and priced accordingly. Two oversized living areas provide endless possibilities for redesign—open it up, add bedrooms, reimagine the flow. Roof appears newer (exact age unknown), but everything else needs updating: HVAC, kitchen, baths, flooring, paint, and layout. This is not a lipstick flip—this is a full-gut opportunity for serious investors only. The floor plan is quirky, but the bones are solid and the footprint is huge. With the right vision, this could be a profitable flip or long-term rental. Sold as-is. Cash or hard money only. No site unseen offers. All due diligence to be completed up front. Seller will make no repairs.

Cost to own

True monthly cost

What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.

Principal & interest20% down · 7.03% · 30yr$721
Property taxesest. at asking price, Duval County$220
Estimated total, before insurance$941/mo
Seller’s 2024 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$2,650/yr · $221/mo
  • • Homeowners insurance is on top — in Florida it varies widely with roof age and wind/flood zone (see the Reality Check below). Budget it before you offer.
  • • In CDD communities (Nocatee, eTown, Seven Pines…), bond assessments are collected on the property-tax bill, and the amount varies home to home — a prior owner may have prepaid the bond — so we confirm this home’s exact line rather than trust a community average.
  • • Taxes are estimated at YOUR purchase price — Florida assessments reset on sale, so the seller’s current bill is usually lower than yours will be (that applies to the reference bill above too).

2024 property taxes (current owner): $2,650/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$2,600/yr

Florida’s Save Our Homes cap limits how fast the current owner’s assessment can rise — and it resets when a home sells, so a buyer’s tax bill is typically based on the purchase price, not the seller’s bill above. Estimate uses the median effective rate across 3,305 current Duval listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
