THE TQ REPORT | September 9, 2026 🏡

Asking prices fell. Inventory did too. Here’s your Tampa Bay update.

📍 THE MARKET
August’s median list price in the Tampa–St. Petersburg–Clearwater metro was $390,000, down 6% year over year. Active listings fell 6.4%, and 25.5% of listings had a price cut. Median market time: 74 days.

My take: compare the individual property before deciding what to offer.

📊 FINANCING
Freddie Mac’s national 30-year fixed average was 6.71% on September 3, versus 6.66% the week before. This is a dated survey average, not your loan quote. MBA reported total applications down 2.7% for the week ending September 4, seasonally adjusted.

Look at the payment and whether price, closing costs or a rate buydown would help most.

🏘️ LOCAL SPOTLIGHT
Lutz 33559 ranked #4 in Realtor.com’s Florida ZIP list, limited to 1 ZIP per metro. Its January–June median list price averaged $434,000. Different period, different local picture.

🏗️ NEW CONSTRUCTION
HBW tracked 6,127 residential permits across 5 Florida regions in July. Its Tampa region’s top 5 builders accounted for 710. Permits are not completed homes. Compare builder offers with resale and include taxes, insurance and HOA/CDD.

☀️ INSURANCE + SOLAR
Florida Realtors reported lower total home and auto premiums paid statewide in 2025, citing an APCIA-commissioned report. That does not mean every household paid less. Get a property-specific quote.

For solar, confirm ownership, financing or lease terms and review payoff and transfer requirements before going under contract.

The Florida market is showing stronger activity, but this is still a market where the details matter.

Single-family sales were up 5.1%, condo and townhome sales were up 11%, and inventory declined by roughly 13% across both segments. Single-family supply is now around 4.5 months, while condo and townhome supply remains higher at 7.8 months.

For buyers, that means there can still be room to compare and negotiate. For sellers, it means pricing and positioning matter even more.

The Florida market is active, but buyers are becoming more selective. That creates opportunities, especially when you compare resale, new construction, financing, taxes, insurance, and seller incentives side by side.

A good property is not automatically a good deal. If you want help breaking down the numbers, visit TQReal.com or send me a message.
