Price on Davis Islands is driven far more by the dirt and the condition of what sits on it than by any tidy per-foot math. The median lands at $3,800,000 against a median of roughly $664 per square foot, but with a housing stock running from 1925 to 2024 and a median build year of 1962, you are looking at a spread of teardowns, restorations, and new construction all trading under one ZIP. Read the per-foot number as a blended average across very different products, not a rate card.
The market posture here is slow and thin. Median days on market sits at 169 with only 7 closings in the window, so a headline like 116% year-over-year says more about which handful of homes happened to sell than about a trend you can lean on. Sellers should price to condition and expect patience; buyers have room to negotiate and time to inspect, but comps are scarce enough that valuation is an argument, not a lookup.

Davis Islands is a community of 360 homes in Tampa, Hillsborough County, built between 1925 and 2024 (median 1962.0), with a median living area of about 3,158 square feet. 72% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
This is a small, high-end island market inside Tampa where the value lives in the land and the build quality, and the roughly 72% homestead share signals a stock held by owner-occupants rather than churned by investors.
Who Davis Islands is best for.
Best for
- Buyers at the top of the market comfortable transacting around a $3.8M median who value island location and land
- Renovation or rebuild-minded buyers underwriting older stock with a construction budget in hand
- Long-hold owner-occupants who are not counting on a quick resale
Probably not for
- Buyers needing a quick, liquid resale given the 169-day median and low closing volume
- Anyone wanting move-in-ready certainty without budgeting for condition or rebuild work
- Value shoppers seeking a predictable price-per-foot rather than a land-and-condition negotiation

The Davis Islands buying strategy.
If we were buying in Davis Islands 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 Davis Islands.
One island, many products
With about 360 homes and a build range spanning nearly a century, Davis Islands is not one market but several stacked on the same streets. A 1962-vintage median tells you a large share of the stock predates modern construction, which means a buyer's real question is whether they are buying to renovate, to hold as-is, or to rebuild. That decision, more than location alone, sets the price you should pay and the work ahead of you.
Liquidity is the constraint to plan around. A 169-day median means well-priced homes still take months, and mispriced ones can sit far longer. With only 7 recent closings, both sides are negotiating in low light, so independent judgment on condition, flood and elevation, and rebuild economics matters more here than in a deep, fast-moving submarket.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Davis Islands. 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 Davis Islands 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 3 factors (8.0). Basis: Recent Direction +176.3% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 72% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 95.4% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a thin market with wide condition-driven pricing, the value we add is discipline: separating land value from improvement value, reading the small comp set honestly, and pricing to the actual product rather than to a headline year-over-year figure. On the buy side we slow you down at inspection and rebuild math; on the sell side we set expectations for a listing that may take months, not days.
