Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Inventory in Duckpond has expanded in this rolling three-month view, with 28 active listings, only a bit lower than a year ago. Homes are taking much longer to sell, with the median time on market jumping to 166 days and months of supply rising to 7.8, well above Gainesville’s 3.8 months. Contract activity has cooled year over year, as homes sold, new listings, and pending sales are all down compared with the same period last year.
Pricing has been adjusting to these slower conditions. The typical home value over the last three months is about $435,000, yet that figure is still up more than 39% from a year ago, a much stronger gain than Gainesville’s roughly 2% rise. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list price has dropped to about 14%, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged down to about 96%, signaling more room for negotiation.
Taken together, Duckpond looks like a slower-paced, higher-priced pocket compared with the broader Gainesville market. Sellers may need to plan for longer marketing times and be strategic with pricing to attract today’s more selective buyers. Buyers, on the other hand, are facing more options and slightly more bargaining power, but still at elevated price levels. Both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent who understands these local trends and can guide them through the Duckpond market.
Duckpond offers residents a charming, walkable neighborhood with historic homes, green spaces, locally owned shops and eateries, and a tight-knit community just minutes from downtown.
Duckpond in Gainesville stands apart from nearby areas like Downtown Gainesville with its tree-lined streets, historic homes, and relaxed pace that still sits close to the city’s cultural core. Early 20th century bungalows and restored Victorians give the neighborhood a distinct character that appeals to long-time residents and newcomers looking for a sense of continuity.
Residents enjoy easy access to downtown restaurants and the creative energy around Bo Diddley Plaza. Local favorites such as The Top and Wyatt’s Coffee are just a short bike ride away. The nearby Matheson History Museum and Hippodrome Theatre add arts and history to everyday life, while Gainesville’s system of parks and trails, including Depot Park, offer outdoor options within minutes.
Families value the neighborhood’s walkability and access to schools within the Alachua County system, along with the resources of the Alachua County Library District. Duckpond’s active neighbors often organize events and keep in touch about local issues, which helps maintain both property values and a strong sense of community.
Because Duckpond homes are relatively limited in number and often in demand, timing and preparation are crucial. Whether you hope to secure a historic property or position your home to stand out, Agent Pronto can connect you with a knowledgeable local agent who understands Duckpond and can guide both buyers and sellers from planning to closing.

“I was extremely pleased with Abby Basci. I was looking for an agent to sell my condo in Gainesville. After I placed an inquiry online to find an agent, Abby was one of the first people to contact me. I talked to her over the phone and soon met her. I was very impressed with her assessment of my condo and her plan to market and sell it. She also was instrumental in the renovations that made it possible for us to sell it at a higher price than I anticipated. Abby took care of everything because I don't live in Gainesville. We sold the condo in a reasonable time for a very good price. It was a stress-free process because of her hard work and knowledge of the real estate market. We now have sold the condo and I can't praise her hard work enough. Abby really takes care of business as a dynamic young woman. Go Abby!!”
