Titusville is one of the more affordable places to own a home on the Space Coast, but the sticker price is only part of the picture. Between property taxes, insurance, and the age of much of the housing stock, the real monthly cost can look different than a first glance at a listing suggests. Here is a grounded look at what it costs to buy and own a home in Titusville, Florida in 2026.
If you are weighing Titusville against the rest of Brevard County, this pairs with our full pros and cons of living in Titusville.
No State Income Tax
Start with the structural advantage every Florida buyer gets: the state has no personal income tax. For households relocating from higher-tax states, that single fact often offsets a chunk of the other costs below, and it is a big reason the Space Coast keeps drawing out-of-state buyers.
Home Prices
As of 2026, active single-family listings in Titusville average in the mid $370,000s, or roughly $248 per square foot. A large share of inventory sits between the $250,000s and $400,000s, older starter homes dip into the high $100,000s, and larger or waterfront homes run past $500,000. If you are shopping the lower end, our Brevard homes under $350,000 page is a good filter, and you can browse everything on the Titusville homes page.
Property Taxes
Property taxes in Brevard County generally land a little under one percent of a home's value per year for most owners, though your exact bill depends on the taxing district and any special assessments. Two Florida rules work in your favor if the home is your primary residence: the homestead exemption removes up to $50,000 of taxable value, and the Save Our Homes cap limits how fast your assessed value can rise each year once homestead is in place. Those protections do not apply to second homes or investment properties, so budget differently if Titusville is not your primary residence.
Homeowners and Flood Insurance
Insurance is the cost that surprises buyers most, and in Titusville it is driven by two things: the age of the home and its position near the water. Much of Titusville was built between the 1960s and 1980s, so roof age, wiring, and plumbing heavily influence your premium, and a four-point inspection is common on older homes. Parts of town also sit in flood zones, which can add a separate flood policy on top of your homeowners and windstorm coverage. Before you fall for a specific house, price the insurance on that exact address. Our guide to the hidden costs of moving to the Space Coast walks through how to do that.
HOA and Community Costs
Titusville gives you a real choice here. Many established neighborhoods have no homeowners association at all, which keeps your fixed monthly costs down. Newer communities on the north and west sides do carry HOA dues, and golf communities like La Cita have their own fee structures. Ask for the current dues and what they cover before you write an offer, because the range across town is wide.
Financing Costs
Your mortgage rate moves the monthly number as much as anything above. Rates shift constantly, so it is worth understanding where they sit and how they shape a Space Coast budget before you shop. We keep a running read in our note on interest rates for Space Coast buyers.
Everyday Living
Day to day costs in Titusville track close to the Brevard County average, and groceries, fuel, and utilities are in line with the rest of the mainland Space Coast. The town leans residential, so some bigger shopping and dining trips mean a drive south toward Viera or west toward Orlando, which is more a time cost than a dollar one.
Frequently Asked Questions

What are property taxes like in Titusville?
Expect roughly a little under one percent of the home's value per year for most owners, with the homestead exemption and Save Our Homes cap lowering the bill on a primary residence. Second homes and investment properties do not get those breaks.
