How Emerald Gardens is trading
3 homes closed in Emerald Gardens in the trailing 12 months at a median of $310,000, with a 100.0% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 1 of 2 listings sits below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 8.0 months of supply at the current sales pace.
The Emerald Gardens name spans three recorded entries, and only 55 of its 57 parcels are dwellings, so leave the three-acre common-area parcel and the county-property parcel out of any comparison. These lots are tiny, near 0.05 acre in the middle of the range, roughly 2,200 square feet, and every home was built between 1986 and 1991, so price per acre says little. The county labels the 44 original townhouse-style records differently from the 11 single-family records in the two northern additions, so compare them as separate groups. Match a sale to its parcel number series, 1018, 1019 or 1020, before counting it, because Emerald Circle exists only in the original entry. The September 24, 2026 listing tally is a one-day snapshot.

The monthly charts cover the 24 complete calendar months from November 2024 through October 2026, and a month with no closings is a zero bar rather than a gap. Those 12 months can differ from the trailing totals above, which run day-precise through November 6, 2026 rather than by whole calendar months.
Based on information from ECAR for the period November 7, 2021 through November 6, 2026.

Where do these numbers come from?
Sale and inventory statistics are computed from ECAR MLS data by Dream Destin Realty and were last refreshed on November 6, 2026. Based on information from ECAR for the period November 7, 2021 through November 6, 2026.
Why is there no list of individual sold homes?
3 homes closed in Emerald Gardens in the trailing 12 months, from $274,900 to $330,000. MLS rules do not allow individual sold listings to be displayed publicly, so this page shows area-level statistics only - ask us for the street-by-street sold review and we'll walk you through it.
How are thin samples handled?
Any figure computed from fewer than three sales is withheld rather than published - a one-sale "median" is just that sale's price. Counts always show; prices earn their way onto the page.
