Cost to own
True monthly cost
What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.
- • 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.

Sun & Light
Southwest-facing backyard — long light and winter sunsets
The listing reports the home facing northeast, which puts the backyard on the southwest side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:27 AM, sunset 7:02 PM.
- The rear carries sun from midday deep into the evening, and in winter the sun sets almost straight into this exposure — the longest usable outdoor light of the diagonal lots.
- Summer late-afternoons run hot; a pool here is warm and sunset-lit, and shading the lanai’s west edge earns its keep.
Orientation per the MLS listing; sun paths are seasonal geometry for Northeast Florida, not a shade study — trees, screening, and neighboring structures change the picture on any specific lot.

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 792 current Clay listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
