The property at 2899 SE Amherst St offers 3 beds, 3 baths, and 2,570 sqft, currently valued at $427,400 ($166/sqft). This is significantly below the median price and price per square foot of recent comparable sales, which range from $236–$355/sqft for similar 3-bed, 3-bath homes. While the local market has softened with home values down 4–13% year-over-year, demand for larger, affordable homes remains steady, and this property is competitively priced relative to both local averages and recent comps. However, expect longer days on market, as Stuart’s current average is 48–101 days depending on the data source.
List with an asking price near current valuation for a quick sale, but consider light cosmetic updates (paint, landscaping) to boost curb appeal and justify a price closer to $450,000. Strongly market the property’s value per square foot and 3/3 layout, targeting buyers seeking space and affordability. Expect a 60–75 day time to close; listing in early summer is optimal given recent comp activity and seasonal patterns. Highlight the low price per square foot in all marketing to attract cost-conscious buyers and reduce time-on-market.
