True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-20, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $217,400, $149 per square foot, a median 34 days on market, sellers accepting 97% of original asking (+30% versus the prior year). At the median price and Hillsborough County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.73 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,420 ($2,800 with the full homestead exemption).
Fortuna Acres Unit A is a small, established pocket of about 161 homes in Tampa, and the thing that moves price here is condition, not location premium. With a build range running from 1925 to 2023 and a median build year of 1983, you are looking at a mix that spans nearly a century — original older stock, decades of mid-life housing, and the occasional new infill build. That spread means two homes on the same street can trade very differently, and the number that matters is what has been done to the house.
Just over half the homes carry a homestead exemption (a 50.9% homestead share), which points to a community that isn't churning — turnover is measured, and inventory in any given window is thin. For a buyer, that means patience and readiness to move when the right updated home appears. For a seller, it means the burden is on presentation and updates; a well-renovated home stands out precisely because the stock around it varies so widely in vintage and finish.

Fortuna Acres is a community of 161 homes in Tampa, Hillsborough County, built between 1925 and 2023 (median 1983), with a median living area of about 1,461 square feet. 51% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
This is a compact, long-established Hillsborough County neighborhood where homes lean modest in footprint — the median sits at roughly 1,461 square feet — and the real variable is how much of the house has been brought up to date.
Who Fortuna Acres is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a right-sized home near the ~1,461-square-foot median who want an established Tampa location
- Renovation-minded buyers willing to underwrite an older home's systems and take on updates
- Long-hold owners who value a low-turnover, settled neighborhood over constant selection
Probably not for
- Buyers who need substantial square footage or a large lot
- Buyers who want a wide, fast-moving selection of listings to compare
- Buyers unwilling to price and inspect for the condition gap between older and newer stock
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending September 20 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($217K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($167K) IS the +30.2% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 6 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 2015 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Fortuna Acres buying strategy.
If we were buying in Fortuna Acres 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 Fortuna Acres.
A wide-vintage street where condition writes the price
The near-century build span is the defining trait here. A 1925 home and a 2023 home in the same 161-home footprint are not the same product, and they will not price the same way. Systems age, floor plans age, and the median living area around 1,461 square feet tells you these are generally right-sized homes rather than sprawling ones — so square footage alone won't separate the values. Renovation depth and mechanical condition will.
Because turnover is limited and the homestead share is just over half, listings don't come fast, and comparable sales require reading the condition behind each number rather than trusting a raw price-per-foot. That's an argument for walking homes in person and underwriting the work each one needs before you commit.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Fortuna Acres. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

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 (7.6). Basis: Recent Direction +30.2% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 51% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 96.7% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a neighborhood this small with vintages this varied, the wrong comp will mislead you. We underwrite each home on its actual condition and updates rather than a headline number, and because inventory is thin, we help buyers stay positioned to act and help sellers frame updated homes to stand apart from the older stock around them.
