🔴 Moving to Tampa? December 31 just became a very important date. 🌴

Florida voters passed Amendment 3, and it's big news for Tampa real estate. The homestead exemption on non-school property taxes rises to:

🏡 $150,000 in 2027
🏡 $250,000 in 2028

Here's the part Tampa homebuyers relocating from out of state need to know: if you aren't a Florida resident by December 31, 2026, you'll start with the existing exemption of about $50,000. The increase doesn't begin until your fifth year of exemption.

So if a move to Tampa Bay is in your future, your timing matters more than ever. And if you're a first-time homebuyer already living in Florida, this is a great time to find out what the change could mean for your budget.

We've been guiding Tampa homebuyers and sellers for more than two decades, and we love a good plan almost as much as a good waterfront view.

📲 Comment or DM "PLAN" and we'll help you map out your next move before the year-end deadline.

Tampa Bay Real Estate Insights – October 2026

Navigating the Tampa Bay real estate market? Here's what you need to know:

Rising Sale Prices: The median sale price for single-family homes has reached $399,450, marking a $4,450 increase from last month and a 2.42% rise year-over-year. Sellers, this is a great time to capitalize on the upward trend in home values.

Homes Sold: We've seen 2,464 homes sold, a decrease of 203 from last month and a significant 17.84% drop year-over-year. Buyers, this indicates a competitive market with fewer homes changing hands, so be prepared to act quickly.

New Listings: With 4,023 new listings, there's a slight increase from last month, although we're down 3.18% compared to last year. Sellers, more listings mean more competition, so ensure your home stands out.

Days on Market: Homes are spending an average of 37 days on the market, slightly longer than last month but 5.13% shorter than last year. Buyers, this means homes are still moving relatively quickly, so timing is key.

Whether buying or selling, understanding these trends can help you make informed decisions in Tampa Bay's dynamic market. Reach out to us for personalized guidance tailored to your needs.
