Cost to own

True monthly cost

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

Principal & interest20% down · 7.4% · 30yr$1,346
Property taxesest. at asking price, St. Johns County$323
HOAbilled monthly$162
Estimated total, before insurance$1,831/mo
Seller’s 2024 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$3,257/yr · $271/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).

*30-year loan at 7.4% APR (avg 30-yr rate 2026-10-08, Freddie Mac PMMS via FRED). Taxes use the county effective rate; insurance is a rough estimate — Florida premiums swing with roof age and flood zone (see the Reality Check). Actual costs may vary.

Sun & Light

Northeast-facing backyard — summer sunrises, all-day cool

The listing reports the home facing southwest, which puts the backyard on the northeast side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:25 AM, sunset 6:59 PM.

  • The rear catches early summer sun (the sun rises almost straight into this exposure in June), then stays comfortable and shaded through the heat of the day.
  • The coolest diagonal for a lanai; a pool here trades warmth for comfort.

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.

2024 property taxes (current owner): $3,257/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$3,900/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 1,595 current St. Johns listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
