ALMIMA
Homes for Sale in TAMPA, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Price in Almima is driven by condition and vintage, not by a uniform product. With a median build year of 1963 and a range that runs from 1900 to 2024, you are looking at a genuine mix — original older homes, updated ones, and scattered new construction. The median sits at $425,000, or about $303 per square foot against a median of roughly 1,448 living square feet, but that single number hides a wide spread. What you pay tracks almost entirely with how much work a given home needs.
The posture right now favors patience on both sides. A median of 217 days on market is long, and it tells sellers that mispriced or as-is homes sit. If you are selling, condition and realistic pricing matter more here than in a faster submarket. If you are buying, you have room to negotiate and time to do diligence — but you should underwrite each home individually, because the age range means inspection findings vary sharply from address to address.
The 60-Second Overview
ALMIMA market snapshot (as of August 2, 2026): the median sale price is about $425K ($303 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 217 days on market for closed sales.
ALMIMA is a community of 774 homes in TAMPA, Hillsborough County, built between 1900 and 2024 (median 1963.0), with a median living area of about 1,448 square feet. 66% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Almima is a sizeable Tampa community of 774 homes in Hillsborough County, spanning more than a century of construction, so two homes a block apart can be entirely different eras and conditions.
Who ALMIMA is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable renovating an older home and budgeting for condition-driven work
- Owner-occupant buyers around the mid-$400s who value patience and negotiating leverage
- Buyers who want to compare vintage, updated, and newer construction within one community

- Buyers unwilling to fund inspections and potential rehab on older stock
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($425K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 0 to 3 sales each (3 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 2008 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The ALMIMA buying strategy.
If we were buying in ALMIMA today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in ALMIMA.
A century-wide housing stock on a slow clock
The defining feature here is age dispersion. A build range from 1900 to 2024 with a median around 1963 means the inventory is neither uniformly historic nor uniformly new. Expect to compare a renovated mid-century house against an untouched older one and a recent infill build in the same search. That variety is an opportunity for buyers who know what they want, and a pricing challenge for sellers who assume comps are apples-to-apples.
The 217-day median days-on-market is the number to sit with. Homes are not clearing quickly, which puts leverage with prepared buyers and rewards sellers who invest in presentation and price to the market. A homestead share of about 66% suggests a meaningful owner-occupied base rather than a churn-heavy rental block, which tends to correlate with steadier upkeep over time. Closings volume in the snapshot window is thin, so treat individual comps carefully and lean on condition-adjusted analysis.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in ALMIMA. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
