SUN LIT SHORES Home Values: What Homes Actually Sell For

SUN LIT SHORES (ST PETERSBURG, FL): 23 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-08-02, a 12-year price record, and sales split by price band and home size — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.

In the current window, sellers accepted a median 90.5% of original asking; the median sale took 39 days (window ending 2026-08-02).

The 12-year recorded price history

Over the recorded series, SUN LIT SHORES’s median sold price moved from $120,000 (2013) to $365,000 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +204% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.

The last decade in SUN LIT SHORES, briefly

The recorded series starts in 2013 at $120,000. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — SUN LIT SHORES’s median moved +17% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2023 peak of $480,000, the current median stands at -24%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 34 closings a year (10-yr average 12.8). With roughly 12.8 closings a year, SUN LIT SHORES’s medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure above.

What actually trades here: 99% single-family residence, 1% ?, with a median of 1,545 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $256 in the current window.

Where SUN LIT SHORES sales actually landed, 2024–2026

If your home sits outside the middle band, the reason usually shows up in the size table below before it shows up in condition.

What homes of your size have sold for in SUN LIT SHORES

The same recorded closings, split into thirds by living area. Find the row your home falls in: the $/sqft figure times your square footage is the recorded-sales bracket for homes like yours here — a starting range from real closings, not a valuation of your specific property. Larger homes here have been selling at a higher price per square foot than smaller ones ($286 vs $224) — less common, and usually a sign of newer or upgraded product at the top of the range.

At SUN LIT SHORES’s $365,000 median and Pinellas County’s adopted 19.39 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $7,080 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $6,260 with the full Florida homestead exemption — a buyer’s first-year figure; a long-time owner’s Save Our Homes cap can be far lower, which is one reason resale taxes jump at closing. Municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county; see the Pinellas County tax page.

Demand check: 20% of SUN LIT SHORES’s listings are under contract, against 22% for ZIP 33702 and 21% for Pinellas County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Since 2004, 200 SUN LIT SHORES listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (9 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 60% of SUN LIT SHORES listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 39%. Momentum’s market-heat index for SUN LIT SHORES reads 46/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).

Cash bought 50% of recorded SUN LIT SHORES sales in the window ending 2026-06 (12 of 24) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close.
