Median days on market
Welaka sits along the St. Johns River in Putnam County, the kind of small Florida town where fishing, boating, and slow mornings on the water set the pace. It's a place people come to for river access rather than shopping and traffic, and the housing reflects that — a mix of waterfront homes and modest cottages built for people who'd rather be on the water than in a subdivision.
The active market here is small and specific: just four listings right now, three of them waterfront. Prices run from $225,000 to $375,000 with a median list around $289,450, so most of what's for sale falls neatly into the $200k–$300k range. Inventory moves slowly — a median of about 94 days on market — which gives patient buyers real room to negotiate on the right property.
Welaka is in Putnam County, Florida.
