What it really costs to own 1212 Castle Terrace

The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.

HOA duesThe listing states there is no HOA.
Home and flood insuranceThe average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Pinellas County is $1,911/yr (20,791 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $3,000–$6,000/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone AE, a high-risk zone where flood insurance is required with a federally backed mortgage. Statewide, a zone A/AE/VE flood policy runs about $1,200–$2,500/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote).
Roof and ageBuilt in 2007. An original roof would be about 19 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date.
Estimated ownership costs

Estimated costs & disclosures

Estimated ownership costs for general information. Confirm each with the county, your lender, and an insurer. See data & estimate notes.

Property tax (first-year est.)
~$9,502/yr

Estimate: a typical Pinellas effective rate applied to the list price before any exemptions. Florida bills change with reassessment, homestead and other exemptions, and local taxing districts — this is not your expected bill. Confirm with the county property appraiser.

CDD assessment
None on record

No CDD assessment appears in our records for this community. CDD assessments show on the county tax bill — confirm with the tax collector.

Insurance (illustrative range)
$3k–$6k/yr

An illustrative modeled range, not based on carrier underwriting and not a quote. Florida premiums vary significantly by roof age, wind-mitigation features, claims history, and carrier — a real quote can land well outside this range. Flood zone AE — confirm flood coverage. Get a quote from a licensed insurer before relying on any figure.

HOA
None reported

The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no mandatory association applies.

Environmental data

Flood zone & elevation

Sourced environmental data for the parcel. Confirm with FEMA and your insurer.

FEMA flood zone
Zone AE

From the FEMA flood map. Lender-required flood insurance may apply; confirm for the parcel.

Ground elevation
~6 ft

Approximate parcel elevation from USGS; confirm exact elevation with a survey.

Windstorm / insurance
Obtain a quote

Pinellas County is on the Florida coast; wind coverage is a major part of the premium. Premiums and coverage vary by home (roof age, wind mitigation, claims history); obtain a quote from a licensed insurer.

How it stacks up

Comparable recent sales

6 closed sales within about 3 miles in the last 18 months — same property type, living area within 30% of this home. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

Median of these 6 sales: $1,050,000 ($366/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.

The Messtimate™ · automated estimate

The Messtimate

Our automated estimate of the likely sale-price range for this home — modeled from recent closed sales nearby adjusted to today's market, a local size-and-age model, and the county tax roll. It is an estimate, not an appraisal, not market value, and not an offer. A licensed agent's CMA sees the condition, the lot, and the live market that a model can't.

$663,400the mess$995,000

Strong local evidence — built from 20 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles (same property type, closed within the last 18 months, each adjusted to today's market).

Track record: across 2,984 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 58% of the time; median miss 9.6% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-10-20.

Actual list price: $905,000 ($323/sq ft) — the seller's asking price is not an input to this range; compare the two.

A 50% spread on the same house — here is what a model can't see:

  • Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures.
  • The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one.
  • The pool — a private pool carries cost and value the model only sees through the comps.
  • Carrying costs & concessions — insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.

And what the live market is doing right now:

  • 1479 active listings competing, 388 under contract
  • 1 closed here in the last 12 months

Before you decide

Buyer research checklist

Items worth confirming for 1212 Castle Terrace, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.

  • Built in 2007 (19 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
  • The listing reports no HOA: confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to this parcel.
  • FEMA flood zone AE: lenders generally require flood insurance here — get an elevation certificate and a flood quote before the inspection period ends.
  • Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Pinellas County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
  • Private pool: confirm the barrier or alarm meets the state residential pool safety code and ask for pump, heater, and resurfacing records.
  • Listed living area is 2,804 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
  • Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
  • Review permit history with the county.
  • Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $9,502/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; the seller's current bill is not a guide Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
  • Confirm school zoning directly with the district.

Answered before you ask

Frequently asked questions

How big is 1212 Castle Terrace and when was it built?

Per the listing record, 1212 Castle Terrace was built in 2007 and has 2,804 sq ft of living area, 5 bedrooms and 3.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.

What community is 1212 Castle Terrace in?

1212 Castle Terrace is in Sunset Hills in Tarpon Springs, Pinellas County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.

Does 1212 Castle Terrace have an HOA?

The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.

Why might property taxes on 1212 Castle Terrace differ from the current owner's?

The estimate on this page (about $9,502 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.

Is 1212 Castle Terrace in a flood zone?

The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone AE, a special flood hazard area where lenders generally require flood insurance on a mortgaged purchase. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer, and ask for an elevation certificate.

Can I rely on the figures on this page?

No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill.
