Price & listing history
Building permits
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: $549,995 ($216/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
Stronger local evidence — 6 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $650,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 8% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
- Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
- Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
- Carrying costs & concessions — this home carries HOA dues of $15/mo; with insurance and any seller-paid buydown, that changes what a buyer actually pays, and a sq ft estimate ignores all of it.
- The pool — a private pool carries cost and value that living area doesn't capture.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
- 41 active listings competing, 25 under contract
- 210 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $650,000 ($256/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 5416 Limelight Drive, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 2022: confirm the roof and HVAC install dates and whether any builder or manufacturer warranty transfers.
- HOA dues are listed at $15/mo: request the current budget, reserves, and rules before relying on that figure or on any restriction.
- FEMA flood zone X: flood insurance is not usually required, but get a quote anyway — FEMA reports roughly one in four flood claims come from outside high-risk zones.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Hillsborough 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 2,537 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 $6,825/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.
- School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 5416 Limelight Drive and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 5416 Limelight Drive was built in 2022 and has 2,537 sq ft of living area, 4 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 5416 Limelight Drive in?
5416 Limelight Drive is in Waterset Ph 5B-2 in Apollo Beach, Hillsborough County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 5416 Limelight Drive have an HOA, and how much are the dues?
The listing reports HOA dues of $15 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 5416 Limelight Drive differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $6,825 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 5416 Limelight Drive in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and 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.
