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 (that applies to the reference bill above too).

Sun & Light
South-facing backyard — the year-round light lot
The listing reports the home facing north, which puts the backyard on the south side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:25 AM, sunset 7:00 PM.
- The rear gets sun through the day in every season — in winter, the low southern sun keeps the lanai and yard bright when north-facing yards go flat.
- A pool back here takes sun most of the day, which means warmer water in the shoulder seasons and the most useful screened-lanai light for plants.
- Summer afternoons are strong but not the direct western blast — shade sails or lanai screening handle it.
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.

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$12,500/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.
