“My wife Judi and I flew into town in early February with the plan of getting to know Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island. Lila Keim had responded to an inquiry that I submitted the previous week. She was able to set up 7 appointments on short notice and she took us to all 7 on the same day. In between houses, she provided us a market commentary on the vrious neighborhoods as well as the retail markets. We expressed interest in the first house we toured. We submitted our initial bid on the property we acquired about 10 days after our house tour. Lila was very responsive in getting us support documentation including HOA info, a floor plan, an existing survey among others. She also referred us to a local mortgage officer at Region's Bank who was able to get us a prequal letter in one day. Lila Keim continued to follow up on all items right through the closing at the title company. She has continued to be a resource for any local market questions we have..”

Hastings real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Hastings real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Hastings is leaning toward sellers right now, with the market gauge at 22 out of 100. Homes are generally priced lower than in the wider St. Johns County area, with a typical home value of about $309,745 compared with $485,000 in the county. Inventory sits around 20 homes, and months of supply is high at 10, which adds some leverage for buyers despite the seller-leaning label.
Recent price trends show some sharp shifts. Typical home values have jumped 16.23% month over month, yet they are still down 38.66% from a year ago, signaling a market that has reset from earlier highs. The median list price has moved in the opposite direction, dropping 19.47% month over month to roughly $275,000, while no recent sales have closed above list and the average sale-to-list price is about 97.5%.
Buyer activity is picking up even as supply tightens. Pending sales are up 350% year over year with 9 homes under contract, but new listings have fallen 87.5% over the same period and only 1 new listing hit the market in the latest month. Homes are taking much longer to sell, with the median days on market climbing to 248, up more than 552% from last year, and about 35% of listings seeing a price drop. Projections for next month suggest typical values could edge toward $331,370 while inventory may dip to around 15 homes, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from having an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate professional guiding their decisions.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Learn more about what Hastings has to offer.
Hastings offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with charming local spots, regular events, and easy access to outdoor recreation, all contributing to a relaxed yet vibrant hometown feel.
Hastings offers a distinctly rural, agricultural pace that feels worlds apart from busier hubs like St. Augustine, yet it sits within practical driving distance of coastal beaches and larger employers. Known historically as the “Potato Capital,” Hastings still features working farms and open space, giving residents a strong sense of land, legacy, and local pride.
Daily life often centers around community spots such as W.E. Harris Community Center and Cora C. Harrison Preserve, where neighbors cross paths at youth programs, meetings, and outdoor events. Families appreciate local access to South Woods Elementary School and the broader St. Johns County Public Library System, along with weekend drives to the St. Johns County Fairgrounds for seasonal festivals and agricultural shows.
Housing in Hastings ranges from modest in-town homes to larger parcels that appeal to buyers seeking space for hobbies, equipment, or small-scale farming. Longtime residents value the stability and privacy, while newcomers are drawn to the relative affordability compared with coastal communities like Palm Coast or Jacksonville.
Because inventory can be limited and buyer interest continues to grow in rural properties, careful timing and preparation matter. A knowledgeable local agent can help sellers position their land or home effectively and guide buyers through inspections, wells, septics, and zoning. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers in Hastings with the right real estate professional to move forward confidently.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“I had a great experience working with Cat in Jacksonville, FL. She took the time to understand my needs, quickly identified the right home, and helped coordinate multiple visits while making sure all my questions were clearly addressed with the seller. Throughout the process, she was extremely responsive and proactive, connecting me with trusted professionals for inspections and other needs. She also went the extra mile by helping arrange care for the home since I won’t be moving in right away. Overall, a smooth and well-supported experience—I highly recommend Cat!”
“Casey did an outstanding job selling our home! From start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism, clear communication, and real expertise. The process was smooth, stress-free, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend Casey to anyone looking to buy or sell!”
“Mike was great. He was on top of everything. He always contacted us when any issues came up and stayed on top of them. He made the whole experience enjoyable for us. I would highly recommend him to anyone interested in buying a home.”
“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!!”

Every once in awhile is would send a mailing or a voicemail. That is one of Bey's many great qualities, he is not pushy. My husband and I brought and sold over 6 homes in 42 yeats.
