About this home

Jacksonville

Welcome to 5638 Corvair Ave, a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offering 1,230 square feet of living space and plenty of potential. Inside, you'll find an open living and dining area with wood-look flooring and a brick fireplace that adds character to the main living space. The kitchen offers plenty of cabinet and counter space, stainless steel range, and a window over the sink. The home features three comfortable bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including one with a walk-in tiled shower and another with a tub/shower combination. Outside, the spacious backyard provides room for entertaining, pets, gardening, or future improvements, along with an existing rear deck. With a functional layout and several updates already in place, this home is a great opportunity for an owner-occupant looking to add their own finishing touches or an investor searching for their next property. Conveniently located in Jacksonville with easy access to shopping, dining, schools, and major roadways.

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$831
Property taxesest. at asking price, Duval County$245
Estimated total, before insurance$1,076/mo
Seller’s 2025 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$2,590/yr · $216/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).

Storms & insurance

Florida Reality Check

The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.

Zone X — minimal flood hazard

Flood insurance is typically not required by lenders (always optional).

Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.

Outside all hurricane evacuation zones

This location is not in a designated storm-surge evacuation zone.

Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1961)

Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.

Sewer & public water · JEA

County records show this parcel on central sewer served by JEA — no septic system to inspect or maintain.

Source: Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).

Solar potential: ~1,663 usable sun-hours per year

A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.

Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.

Ask about this home

As of August 2026, this Reality Check is informational only — it draws on FEMA/FDEM hazard layers, Florida DOH water records, and the listing’s own fields at this property’s coordinates. None of it is a determination, survey, or inspection, and public records can lag or conflict with on-site conditions. Independently verify anything you’ll rely on: the flood zone at msc.fema.gov and floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone (and confirm flood-insurance cost with your lender and a licensed insurance agent), and the sewer/septic, roof, and utilities with a professional inspection.

Sun & Light

West-facing backyard — the sunset lot

The listing reports the home facing east, which puts the backyard on the west side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:26 AM, sunset 7:01 PM.

  • Sunsets happen over your own backyard — and in summer the rear takes the full afternoon sun, so the lanai runs hottest of any orientation from about 3pm on.
  • A pool back here is the warmest in town and glitters in the evening; expect afternoon glare on west-facing glass and real value in lanai screening or shade trees.
  • Morning coffee happens in shade; the front of the home takes the sunrise.

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.

Cost to own

Taxes & assessment

2025 property taxes (current owner): $2,590/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$2,900/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 3,305 current Duval listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
