Rates went up. The cranes didn't stop.

Last week the Fed raised rates for the first time in about three years, and mortgage rates are now near 7%. On a $400K loan, that's about $180 more a month than a year ago. It's real money, but it doesn't make a good home a bad buy.

Here's what higher rates haven't done: knock prices down. There are 13% fewer homes for sale across Florida than a year ago, so prices are holding.

And Pinellas kept building while everyone watched the Fed. Clearwater poured the first concrete on The Bluffs, a 28-story tower overlooking Coachman Park. In St. Pete, the historic Manhattan Casino reopened after 56 years, and demand to build affordable homes nearby is outpacing the funding.

My take? Waiting for rates to drop isn't a plan. Pinellas is out of land, and a county that stops building only gets more expensive. If you're buying, buy the home and refinance later. Be a participant, not a spectator.

Curious what this means for your home? DM me your street and I'll run the real numbers for you. No pitch, no pressure.

New listing!

$549,900
4 Bed | 2 Bath | 1,666 Sq Ft
3334 70th Way N, St. Petersburg, FL 33710

This home is a 4 bedroom, 2 bath St. Pete pool home with an updated open kitchen, new terrazzo flooring, flexible living spaces, and a private backyard built for Florida living.

The PebbleTec pool, covered patio, brick BBQ, and tropical setting make it easy to spend weekends at home, while solar panels, paid off Tesla battery storage, an EV charger, 2023 roof and A/C, and parking for up to six vehicles add plenty of everyday practicality.

And the location? Minutes from shopping and the Pinellas Trail, about 12 minutes to the beach, and less than 20 minutes to Downtown St. Pete.

More space. More flexibility. More Florida.

What makes a home near the water valuable isn’t always obvious.

Sure, the views are a big part of it. But so are the things you get to do every day: walk to the waterfront, spend more time outside, get on the boat after work, or have your favorite spots just minutes away.

At the same time, there are practical factors that matter too, from flood zones and insurance to the exact distance from the water.

The right location can add value in ways you notice every day and appreciate long after you move in.

Six units under contract in just six days. 🔥

Roche Bobois St. Pete Tower is already making an impression, and this early momentum says a lot about the interest in bringing this kind of design driven residential experience to downtown St. Pete.

With six more residences now under contract, the opportunity to get in during the pre construction stage is becoming more limited. The project is expected to move into its next phase this fall, making now a good time to take a closer look at what’s still available.

If you’ve been watching Roche Bobois St. Pete Tower, this might be your sign to stop watching and start exploring!

Closed in Safety Harbor. 🏡

This property was a little different from your typical home sale. A waterfront lot, steps from the marina and downtown, with the potential to create something completely new in one of Safety Harbor’s most walkable areas.

Now it’s officially closed and ready for its next chapter.

Another reminder that sometimes the right real estate opportunity isn’t a finished home. It’s the location, the potential, and what you can build from there.

Your tax bill doesn't add up. 📋

Home values dropped, but bills went up anyway. Florida's assessment cap means your taxed value is still catching up from past gains. Pinellas lost $5.5B in value this year — bills still rose. You have 25 days from your mailing date to appeal.

Meanwhile: a storm-damaged Dunedin teardown sold at full price for its 0.71 acres and waterfront. A Safety Harbor listing leads with "39 feet above sea level." An 11th-floor Bliss unit just listed at $1.895M, down from $2.3M in 2022.

A flat tax rate in a down market means that money comes from somewhere — and downtown St. Pete is it. 400 Central's 46 stories. 824 new apartments on 2nd Ave South. The Roche Bobois tower. A $65M museum expansion. Every one pays for services the moment it exists.

Pinellas is out of land. If what you own has land, height, or a downtown address, you're in a better spot than that envelope makes it look. 🏙️

The art fence wasn’t the only thing making a statement that night...

At the Roche Bobois St. Pete Tower fence unveiling, there was a lot to see. With the local art, great company, and an evening celebrating what’s taking shape in St. Pete, there were plenty of reasons to dress for the occasion.

But now we have the most important question to settle…

Who was the most on theme for Pink Tie?
