How Shortline Lake Estates is trading
Fewer than three homes closed here in the trailing 12 months - too thin a sample to publish reliable statistics. Ask us for a hand-built sales review instead.
Shortline Lake Estates is two platted communities, and their numbers should not be pooled. Phase I's 15 parcels run near half an acre, all single-family, and 14 of them lie wholly in minimal-hazard Zone X. The Cottages pack 39 lots near a quarter acre along private roads, and 35 of the 39 hold Zone A ground, with a mapped water body covering part of 21 of them, so recorded acreage and dry ground diverge there. No active homeowners association appears in the state registry, so who maintains those private roads needs its own paper trail. Name matching also understates the record: only 17 of the 54 parcels spell out the full name in their legal text. The August 20, 2026 count of none active and ten sold came from a name search with no closing window stated, so refresh it before comparing.
Based on information from ECAR for the period November 4, 2025 through November 4, 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 4, 2026. Based on information from ECAR for the period November 4, 2025 through November 4, 2026.
Why is there no list of individual sold homes?
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.
