Cost to own

True monthly cost

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

Principal & interest20% down · 7.24% · 30yr$3,816
Property taxesest. at asking price, Duval County$1,146
Estimated total, before insurance$4,962/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.

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 1945)

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

Solar potential: ~1,793 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.

As of November 2026, this Reality Check is informational only — it draws on FEMA/FDEM hazard layers, Florida DOH water records, and the listing’s own fields, read at the listing’s map pin or, on lots of an acre or more, across the county parcel (state cadastral). A zone shown for part of a lot may not be where the home stands. 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.

Around this address

Nearby, from public data

The closest public beach, park, water access, league fields and grocery store from this home's location.

Not from the MLS. Places from FWC, FDEP, the water districts, the counties and the cities; stores from state food permits and each chain’s store list. Distances are straight-line from this home unless a drive time is shown. Fees, hours and access change, so check the agency’s page before you go.

Sun & Light

East-facing backyard — the morning-light lot

The listing reports the home facing west, which puts the backyard on the east side. Today at this address: sunrise 6:49 AM, sunset 5:31 PM.

  • The rear takes the sunrise and the gentle morning sun, then goes shaded through the afternoon — the classic comfortable-summer-evening lanai in Florida.
  • The front of the home carries the hot western afternoon instead of your living space.

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.

Taxes & assessment

YearMarket valueTaxable valueChange
2026$311,284$311,284—

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$13,700/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 3,601 current Duval listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
