🇺🇸 PCSing to Tampa Bay? Start here.

If you’ve received orders to MacDill AFB—or you’re expecting them soon—you probably have a lot of questions.

🏡 Where should we live?
🚗 What will my commute to MacDill look like?
🏫 What areas should we consider for schools?
💰 Should we rent or buy?
📍 Tampa, Brandon, Riverview, Apollo Beach, Bradenton…which area makes the most sense?

I put together a FREE Tampa Bay PCS & Relocation Guide to help military families and contractors get familiar with the area before they arrive.

As a U.S. Army veteran and Military Relocation Professional (MRP), I understand that a PCS isn’t just about finding a house—it’s about figuring out where your family is going to call home.

August numbers are in for Manatee County 📊

More buyers, fewer new listings. Here’s what that means for you:

🏡 Median sale price: $495K (up 5.9% from last year) ⏱️ Homes went under contract in 45 days, faster than last year’s 53 💰 Sellers got 95.6% of their original asking price

Buying? You still have room to negotiate. But the well-priced homes in Lakewood Ranch and Parrish are going fast.

Selling? Prices are up, but full asking isn’t the norm. Price it right in week one.

👇 Comment the community you’re watching and I’ll send you its latest numbers.

A proposed 7-Eleven near White Eagle Boulevard in Lakewood Ranch is creating a lot of debate among local residents.

Some people see it as a needed convenience for a growing community.

Others are concerned about increased traffic, delivery trucks, noise, lighting, and the fact that homes and schools are located nearby.

Personally, I think it’s an interesting example of the challenges that come with growth. Everyone wants amenities and services… until they’re proposed near their neighborhood.

What do you think?

👍 Good for Lakewood Ranch

👎 Wrong location

I recently put together a detailed market update for Greyhawk Landing in Bradenton after noticing there really isn’t much neighborhood-specific data available online for local homeowners.

What I found was actually pretty interesting:
• transaction activity increased significantly
• pricing softened slightly
• inventory remains relatively limited
• and buyers appear to be much more selective than they were a few years ago.

I break down:

* current inventory
* pricing trends
* price per square foot
* buyer activity
* and what these numbers may realistically mean for homeowners in today’s market.

Hopefully some of you find this helpful.

And if there’s another Bradenton, Parrish, or Lakewood Ranch community you’d like me to cover next, let me know in the comments.

One thing I’ve noticed is that there really isn’t much detailed information available about what’s happening inside specific neighborhoods here in the Bradenton area.

Most real estate content online seems to fall into one of two extremes:
either “everything is amazing and prices only go up” or “the market is crashing.”

The reality is usually much more nuanced than that.

So I decided to start putting together community-specific market updates to help homeowners better understand what’s ACTUALLY happening in their neighborhood, including inventory levels, pricing trends, buyer activity, and overall market conditions.

Here’s a quick market update flyer I put together for Greyhawk Landing, and over the next few days I’ll also be posting a more in-depth video breaking down the community, current market trends, and what I think the numbers realistically mean.

Hopefully some of you find this useful and informative.

And if you’d like to see a similar market update flyer and data sheet for your neighborhood, let me know down in the comments.
