I know I’ll never afford anything in Tampa but I loveeee all the work that is being poured into Tampa. That an American City it's now focusing on the walk ability, and green spaces but also honoring history. I truly believe Tampa is (and you could argue is already) going to be the next big thing, and If this continues I think it could be the best city in America. Great video I love Tampa
Everything you said is exactly the problem with the area. Building housing for a particular niche of the market that the majority can't afford. In an area that doesn't even have the job market to support it. That's why Florida is ground zero for all housing cycles.
@@TampaFloridaLiving we like that there are so many different areas to go with shopping, events, and activities with all different vibes, but most areas are also family friendly and safe. Miami was amazing but not very family friendly for day to day living and also very expensive compared to here
@ agreed we could upgrade our nightlife a tad more but culture… i mean we have a great mix here. We are also more family friendly vs miami and you can always drive to miami for bigger nightlife when needes
That oughta do wonders for the already horrendous traffic 😂 The biking’s top notch but man I wouldnt want to have to commute in & out of here for work.

I moved to Florida 4 years ago. I flip houses and I lost over 300k and right now I have my money in houses i can’t even sell i can’t wait to the market get better to get out of here
People are running away from Florida. I personally know 4 people who moved from Chicago to Tampa area and 2 of them moved back to Chicago and 2 others are in process of moving back. And they told me that people are getting out as quickly as they can. Yeah they are building but is it going to sell. Not sure about that
Not the case as a whole my man. Tons of people relocating here. I couldn't imagine leaving the insane property taxes in Chicago and willingly going back... but good for them. Enjoy the snow.
yeah I'm from Chicago and If I couldn't travel back and forth like I do, I'd move back to Chicago unfortunately. There just isn't the culture, good food or reasonably priced housing and amenities here. Chicago is corrupt politically but Florida's lack of regulation allows for scams to thrive argh.
Fascinating but realistically homes are staying on the market longer in Tampa bay and selling for less than expected and the market is also showing we will start to see an upward trend in foreclosures.
@@tabitha8808 where did you pull stats from to back that data? I dont foresee a massive foreclosure wave as there is a tom of equity in homes still. Prices have receded in recent months but year over year median sales price is only down 1.3%. Thats not bad after back to back double digit increases. Tampa market is still showing signs of strength and a much more stable market thank god… last few years have been a wild ride
I agree I own 4 homes in the Tampa area and the market is slowing to what is considered normal. People seem to think COVID market was suppose to keep going.
Lived in orlando till 93 then moved to tampa before 7th grade(94) and been here ever since. Im really starting to hate the heat of FL but tampa bay is a pretty sweet place to live.
Great video and yeah Tampa's core is finally filling out. One thing I like is that unlike other cities in Florida, Tampa has history. What sucks is home prices have not gone down and that has locked my family out of the home market. 400,000 is not affordable for most. So I wonder who is buying these homes? I assume people from up north or overseas who have cash.
@@RedWolf75 thank you for chiming in! Love hearing from you! Honestly $400k has become the new norm. Locals are affording $400k but we are seeing more 2 home incomes these days along with tech salaries, incomes from the medical field along with professional services. Way different from the good ole days where hospitality and tourism was more of the norm.
@TampaFloridaLiving I regret not buying a home in 2019. 400,000 is out of reach. Stuck in a townhome with 2 kids and unable to get them a backyard and a good school district gets to a person. It will take us 3 more years to be able to get one of these homes. Hopefully prices stay stable.
@RedWolf75 im sorry to hear that and certainly understand. Nobody including myself could have predicted what we have experienced in the last few years. Have you looked at rolling your townhome equity i to the new home (assuming you own the TH)
@@Albert_Riseal agreed with all of those. Im going to try to get a behind the scenes of the airport expansion soon. I also want to highlight the new condos once doors open.
tampa is a sinking ship, i move here 4 years ago, and it went up during covid, but everyone is abandoning the city for a long list of reason, but most people i know move out, real estate is dropping like a dead duck out of the sky due to high insurance from all the hurricane in the last 3 years. It didn't double it triple to quaddrouple in some flood zone areas. It'll be very interesting to see a ton of empty real estate when they are completing it in a few years, as if it's not already pretty dead. I've had my house listed for months now, no buyer, good luck. I"m moving out as well.
@@wakeupdrowzy we havent seen that version of tampa or real estate. All of my listings have been selling. Reach out i can get it sold!!! Info@themorejongroup.com
Right? EVERYTHING I am seeing is saying the real estate market is really starting to break down. If builders are putting RECORD numbers of new homes???....this is going to get really UGLY in a year or two.
@@SteveBarker-p3n i think new construction will slow down but mainly bc resale is starting to make a come back. Demand is still there at this point. We are technically also in low season. Numbers will increase through summer as normal. I actually think we are in a healthy market similar to 2019 numbers
@@SteveBarker-p3n where did you read that? As of end of october closed sales were down to 2700 from around 3000 same month last year. Thats not a 10 year low. Just saying. These are numbers for single family homes in tampa bay metro
Unfortunately in the state of FL cities hardly ever try to work on the lower and older neighborhoods. I went to USF and they made many transformations in the 4 years I was there but that was for the school not the actual neighborhoods
Equal to 2019 which was a very healthy market. And yet its still considered a slight sellers market. IM glad inventory made a comeback but lets see what happens as things heat up in spring?!?!
Where they really need financial and upgraded help is around the Busch Gardens area where the Theme Park is being strangled by all of the low income areas around it! It's so sad to see that what should look like an amazing enticing, big welcome area like what Disney and Universal have and an International Drive feel to it on Busch Blvd, with gift shops and Hotels and lots of glamour around it!. But in reality it looks like a walled in, big zoo with roller coasters inside but in a pretty bad looking trashy neighborhood on Busch Blvd, with homeless people all around and also other run down, low class businesses etc. too close by. It's just really sad to see when it calls Tampa home too! =(
@@shazabia321 i do think that area is going to be a popular development area i. The near future. University mall is getting revamped and a new usf stadium on the way. Too much medical in the area to not grow

Affordable housing is great, but I’ve been to other cities I.e Downtown KC and this equals more crime. Low income brings unfortunately more crime. Hopefully I am wrong 😢
Agreed.....Affordable housing sounds nice on paper but brings a lot of crime along with it. I've seen it in Charlotte also. It's mostly used and abused.
Studies have shown that well-managed affordable housing projects generally do not lead to increased crime or lower property values. If fact it may also contribute to a more diverse and robust workforce.
@@angelarrieta4934 Guess you would have to dig deep in what exactly is “well-managed” and who paid for and controlled the study. Sorry, it’s just very difficult to trust a study…
