    St. Pete advances housing plan for nine vacant city lots

    The St. Petersburg City Council unanimously approved a first reading of an ordinance to place a measure on the November 3 ballot that would remove nine vacant city lots in Methodist Town from the city's Charter Park and Waterfront Map. The change would allow up to 41 units of affordable or workforce housing, with four lots planned for single family homes and five larger parcels for multifamily housing. The lots have held park designations since 1984 but have remained vacant.

    What it may mean for the marketAdvances a plan to convert nine vacant city lots into new single family and multifamily housing, adding to local housing inventory. Placing the parcels on the ballot could open long dormant land for residential construction. The project is about 3 miles east of Central Avenue Heights, elsewhere in Pinellas County.

    Blake-Related team selected to redevelop 86-acre Historic Gas Plant District

    St. Petersburg selected a bid led by Blake Investment Partners, with the Related Group as co-developer, to redevelop the 86-acre Historic Gas Plant District at the Tropicana Field site. The roughly 8.1 billion dollar mixed use plan calls for more than 3,600 income-restricted residential units, a 13-acre central park, and office, retail, hotel and civic space over an estimated 20-year buildout. The developers plan to purchase about 58 acres while the city retains roughly one third.

    What it may mean for the marketAdds a large mixed use district with thousands of new residential units, a central park, and office, retail, hotel and civic space to the downtown St. Petersburg market. Redevelopment of the Tropicana Field site reshapes the surrounding property landscape and expands housing supply. The site is about 3 miles east of Central Avenue Heights.

If we were buying in Central Avenue Heights today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Central Avenue Heights.
