Titusville sits on the Indian River, across the water from Kennedy Space Center.
Selling one home and buying another at the same time is one of the most stressful moves there is. You are a seller and a buyer at once, with two sets of dates, two sets of paperwork and one big question: what if the timing does not line up? Many people lose sleep over the idea of owning two homes, or owning none.

What this means in Titusville
- The typical owner-occupied home in Titusville is worth about $266,600, 21% below the Brevard County typical value. At about 6–8% total selling costs, that is roughly $16,000–$21,300 on a typical sale here; your own number depends on your price and mortgage.
- About 46% of homes in Titusville were built before 1980. Older Florida homes often need a 4-point inspection (roof, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling) before an insurer will cover them, so having one done early can stop surprises after you accept an offer.
- When you move in Titusville: power is usually from Florida Power & Light (FPL), and water from City of Titusville (Customer Service / Utility Billing). Set up service a week or two before Moving Day.
- On Titusville's water service application, new owners agree to pay any unpaid water bill or lien left by the previous owner. If it isn't paid, it moves to the new owner's account within 20 days, so ask for a final water bill before closing.
