What it really costs to own 491 1St Street #315
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 dues | $397/month per the listing record. Dues cover what the association documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study before you close. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The 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 $2,500–$5,000/yr; neither is a quote. |
| Roof and age | Built in 1956. An original roof would be about 70 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. |
Flood zone & elevation
Sourced environmental data for the parcel. Confirm with FEMA and your insurer.
Not yet verified for this address. Look up the parcel at msc.fema.gov before relying on any flood assumption.
Approximate parcel elevation from USGS; confirm exact elevation with a survey.
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.

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: $242,250 ($352/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.
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.
Directional estimate — 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 2,983 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 58% of the time; median miss 9.2% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-10-19.
Actual list price: $515,000 ($746/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 1956 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; the model can't see either.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one.
- Carrying costs & concessions — this home carries HOA dues of $397/mo; insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.

Items worth confirming for 491 1St Street #315, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1956 (70 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
- Condominium: request the association's budget, reserves, the most recent milestone or structural inspection report, and two years of meeting minutes before relying on the dues.
- Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and confirm with your insurer whether flood insurance is required.
- 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.
- Listed living area is 690 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 $5,408/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.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 491 1St Street #315 and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 491 1St Street #315 was built in 1956 and has 690 sq ft of living area, 2 bedrooms and 1.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 491 1St Street #315 in?
491 1St Street #315 is in Waterfront Park Apts Co-Op in St Petersburg, Pinellas County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 491 1St Street #315 have an HOA, and how much are the dues?
The listing reports HOA dues of $397 per month. Dues, what they cover, and the community's rules should be confirmed from the association's current documents before relying on them.
Why might property taxes on 491 1St Street #315 differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $5,408 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 491 1St Street #315 in a flood zone?
A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.
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.
