Jon's Current Read

"Belmont is a large Lennar master plan in Ruskin where the value is amenities and near-new homes; the homework is the CDD assessment, the phase and floor plan, and the South Shore commute."

Jon Brooks, founder, Momentum Realty · Updated June 2026

The 60-Second Overview

Belmont South market snapshot (as of June 25, 2026): the median sale price is about $348K ($172 per sq ft), with homes averaging 109 days on market and 3.7 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market. Based on 26 recent closings in live Stellar MLS data.

Belmont is a master-planned community in Ruskin, southern Hillsborough County, on roughly 932 acres approved for about 2,260 homes plus commercial space, built largely by Lennar (with Beazer early), per development sources. Homes range from townhomes to single-family.

Amenities include a resort-style pool, tennis and basketball courts, a dog park, and parks and open space, with a new Publix-anchored shopping center nearby. The community is governed by both an HOA and a Community Development District, with HOA figures cited roughly $13 to $219 per month and the CDD assessment carried in the annual property taxes.

Because Belmont spans multiple phases and product types, comp by phase, product, and floor plan. Confirm the HOA fee and inclusions, the CDD assessment, the school assignment by address, and the FEMA flood zone for the specific home before you offer.

Best for

  • Buyers who want near-new homes with resort amenities at an attainable price
  • Commuters who value US-301 and I-75 access from South Shore
  • Buyers who want townhome or single-family choice in one community
  • Buyers comfortable confirming the CDD assessment

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want no CDD and the lowest carrying cost
  • Anyone seeking an established, mature-canopy neighborhood
  • Buyers who want a custom or waterfront home
  • Buyers who need a short commute to downtown Tampa

Tight supply and strong demand favor sellers here. Homes still take about two months to sell, though, and with asking prices running above recent sales per square foot, a prepared buyer has room on anything overpriced. Reading each home against the real comps, not the headline trend, is where the edge is.

Carrying cost · the no-CDD edge

No CDD bond means thousands less per year than newer master plans.

Typical CDD community~$2,500/yr
Belmont (no CDD)$0/yr

Roughly $25,000 saved over 10 years in carrying cost, before resale.

Illustrative. NE Florida CDD assessments commonly run $1,500-$3,500+/yr and vary by community; verify per property.

Schools

15-Second Take
  • Hillsborough County Public Schools
  • Verify the zoned schools by address
  • Magnet and choice options may be available
  • Confirm current ratings before relying on them
  • Private and parochial options nearby

Belmont is served by Hillsborough County Public Schools. Assignment is by address and can change, so confirm the exact zoned elementary, middle, and high schools for any specific home, plus any magnet or choice options. Treat published ratings as a starting point, not the full story.

Buying with schools in mind? We can confirm the exact zoned schools for any Belmont address.

Community Details at a Glance

Belmont is a Lennar master-planned community in Ruskin, southern Hillsborough County (33573), on roughly 932 acres approved for about 2,260 homes, with a resort-style pool, tennis and basketball courts, a dog park, parks, and a nearby Publix-anchored shopping center, along US-301 near I-75 and the Crosstown. It is governed by both an HOA and a CDD. Confirm the HOA fee, the CDD assessment, and school zoning by address with Hillsborough County Public Schools.

Jon Brooks, Momentum Realty
Operator Note

The trap here is a beautifully staged original-condition home. Staging is cheap; a roof, HVAC, and a full modernization are not. We price the real renovation before you fall for the listing photos, because in an all-resale market that number is the difference between a deal and the most expensive house on the street.

Jon Brooks, Momentum Realty
Operator Note

Most buyers overpay on interior lots in the back half of the community. A sharp renovation can distract you, but the weaker resale position follows the lot, not the finishes. We read the homesite before the kitchen.

Jon Brooks, Momentum Realty
Operator Note

The strongest value pocket is usually a renovated home on a good lot priced just under the next tier up. Buyers chasing the single biggest house often pay top prices for what is really a renovation project.

5 Mistakes Buyers Make in Belmont

15-Second Take
  • Calling the listing agent (who works for the seller)
  • Misjudging the renovation budget
  • Overpaying for an interior lot
  • Underbudgeting the carrying costs
  • Skipping the roof, HVAC, and systems check

The same five mistakes cost buyers the most in any market. Every one is avoidable with the right preparation before you tour.

Belmont is master-planned South Shore value. The deal is won or lost on the phase, the floor plan, and the full HOA-plus-CDD math.

Why our read on Belmont is different.

Most pages on this community are an automated estimate wrapped in stock copy. This one is built from the live Stellar MLS feed, fourteen years of closed sales, and a renovation-by-renovation read of what actually moves value here, lot by lot. No Zestimate, no guesswork.

Which Lots & Views Hold Value Best

Where the value actually sits. Each home is shaded by its price per square foot (a value read, not just a price) and ringed by lot type, so you can see at a glance which pockets carry a real, durable premium and where a renovation play makes sense.

Value ($/sqft)
$261 value$401 premium
Lake / waterPreserveInterior

Fill = price per square foot; ring = lot type, inferred from listing descriptions. Sold homes are shown by realized $/sqft (lot type not always recorded). Asking and recent-sold figures from Stellar MLS; for orientation, not an appraisal.

15-Second Take
  • Conservation and pond lots hold value best
  • Phase and product drive comps
  • Townhomes are the value entry
  • Near-new construction limits renovation risk
  • Confirm the CDD before the lot

In a master plan like Belmont, the phase, product, and lot set resale, and near-new construction keeps renovation risk low. Conservation and pond lots carry premiums, and townhomes are the value entry. Confirm the HOA-plus-CDD math first, then comp the specific phase and plan.

HOA, CDD & Fees

15-Second Take
  • HOA plus a CDD on the tax bill
  • Resort pool, tennis, dog park
  • Townhome and single-family choice
  • Comp by phase and product
  • Confirm the full fee math

Belmont has an HOA (figures cited roughly $13 to $219 per month across products) and a Community Development District whose assessment is carried in the annual property taxes. Confirm both, per parcel.

The HOA and CDD fund the resort pool, tennis and basketball courts, dog park, and parks and open space.

The takeaway

Selling here is won on condition and view, not the Zestimate. The right number comes from closed comps matched to your renovation level and lot.

Sold-to-list and days-on-market figures reflect Momentum Realty listings versus our market average, year to date. Your home's result depends on pricing, condition, lot, view, and preparation.

In Belmont, condition and view decide your number

Because buyers here are weighing your home against renovated comps and cross-shopping South Shore, a home priced to the community average instead of its true condition and view either leaves money on the table or sits. A renovated kitchen, newer roof and HVAC, and a golf or lake view all deserve to show up in your price, and a buyer pool reading renovation math needs to be shown why your home is worth it. We build that case with real comps and a pricing strategy for the current market.
