Market Heat
Over the 12 months ending 2026-08-02, 17 recorded sales closed at a median of $985,000, $445 per square foot, a median 47 days on market, sellers accepting 94% of original asking (+9% versus the prior year). At the median price and Pinellas County's FY2025-26 rate of 19.39 mills, annual property tax runs about $19,100 ($18,280 with the full homestead exemption).
Broadwater Unit 1 is a condition story, not a price-tier story. With homes dating from as far back as 1910 out to new 2024 construction and a median build year of 1960, what a buyer pays here tracks the age and state of the house far more than the address. Expect a wide spread: original mid-century homes sit alongside gut renovations and newer builds, and the gap between them is where the negotiation lives.
At roughly 803 homes with a homestead share near 68%, this is a largely owner-occupied pocket where inventory turns rather than floods. For sellers, that means a well-prepared, updated home stands out against the older stock. For buyers, it means underwriting the specific house — roof, systems, and updates — rather than assuming the median tells you what you'll spend.

Who Broadwater Unit 1 is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable inspecting older homes and budgeting for roof and systems on a mid-century house
- Renovation-minded buyers looking to add value to an original property rather than pay for someone else's finishes
- Long-hold owner-occupants who value an established, largely owner-occupied St Petersburg pocket
Probably not for

- Buyers who want a tight, predictable price range and heavy comparable data before committing
- Buyers seeking large square footage well above the roughly 1,676 sqft median as the norm
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 ($985K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($901K) IS the +9.3% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 22 sales each (17 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 2004 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Broadwater Unit 1 buying strategy.
If we were buying in Broadwater Unit 1 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 Broadwater Unit 1.
A mid-century core with a long tail of ages
The median home was built in 1960 and runs about 1,676 square feet — modest, single-story footprints are the baseline expectation here. But the year-built range stretches from 1910 to 2024, so the stock is genuinely mixed: early-century homes, a broad mid-century body, and a handful of recent builds. That variety is the defining feature. Two homes a block apart can differ by decades of construction and every system that comes with age.
With homestead exemptions on close to 68% of homes, turnover is measured rather than rapid, and the closings window is thin — a small sample of recent sales. That makes comparable analysis harder and puts a premium on getting the condition and update level of any specific home right. Price here is driven by what's been done to the house, not by a uniform neighborhood rate.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Broadwater Unit 1. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Momentum Buy Score.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Broadwater Unit 1 buys, holds, and resells. Momentum Research; not an appraisal.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 4 factors (7.5). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +159% since 2012; Recent Direction +9.3% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 63% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 93.9% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this varied in age and condition, the median is a starting point, not an answer. We underwrite the actual house — roof, systems, updates, and how it compares to the thin recent sales record — so you're negotiating on what's in front of you rather than a neighborhood average that hides more than it reveals.
