What it really costs to own 6242 5Th Avenue
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 | The listing states there is no HOA. |
|---|---|
| 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 $2,000–$4,000/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote). |
| Roof and age | Built in 1950. An original roof would be about 76 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.
From the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer. In this zone lender-required flood insurance is generally not mandated; confirm for the parcel.
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.

Building permits
Comparable recent sales
6 closed sales in LAKE PASADENA DEV 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: $635,000 ($316/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.
Strong local evidence — built from 10 comparable closed sales in LAKE PASADENA DEV (same property type, closed within the last 18 months, each adjusted to today's market).
Track record: across 2,978 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 57% of the time; median miss 9.7% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-10-16.
Actual list price: $410,000 ($290/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 1950 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 — insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And what the live market is doing right now:
- This home: 139 days on market vs. a 20-day community median
- 5 active listings competing, 1 under contract
- ≈4.6 months of supply
- 12 closed here in the last 12 months

Items worth confirming for 6242 5Th Avenue, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1950 (76 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 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 Pinellas County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Listed living area is 1,412 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 $4,305/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 6242 5Th Avenue and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 6242 5Th Avenue was built in 1950 and has 1,412 sq ft of living area, 3 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 6242 5Th Avenue in?
6242 5Th Avenue is in Lake Pasadena Dev in St Petersburg, Pinellas County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 6242 5Th Avenue 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 6242 5Th Avenue differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $4,305 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 6242 5Th Avenue 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.
