Forty Eighth Street
Homes for Sale in Tampa, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 3 closed sales in Forty Eighth Street Sub in Tampa, FL since 2015, the most recent in May 2026. Across Tampa as a whole, 4,890 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $442,500, 39 median days on market, with 1,287 homes for sale today. At that median and Hillsborough County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.73 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,960 ($6,340 with the full homestead exemption).
There is not enough current MLS activity in Forty Eighth Street to isolate a pricing pattern with confidence. That absence is itself the read: this is a small, quiet corner of Tampa where turnover is infrequent enough that a broad market narrative would be guesswork rather than analysis.
For a buyer or seller, that means the community has to be evaluated house by house rather than by trend line. Comparable sales, condition, and lot specifics will carry more weight here than any neighborhood-level statistic, because the statistics simply are not there yet.

Who Forty Eighth Street is best for.
Best for

- A seller comfortable pricing based on direct, hand-pulled comparables rather than a neighborhood dashboard.
- Someone who values a quieter, low-turnover pocket of Hillsborough County over active market visibility.
Probably not for

The Forty Eighth Street buying strategy.
If we were buying in Forty Eighth Street 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 Forty Eighth Street.
A subdivision with a thin data trail
Some Tampa communities generate a steady stream of listings and closings; Forty Eighth Street is not currently one of them. No community amenities have been identified from active MLS listings, and there is no meaningful volume of recent sales to pull a median price, pace, or inventory read from.
That is not a red flag on its own. Smaller, older subdivisions in established parts of Hillsborough County often move slowly simply because owners stay put. It does mean any research here needs to happen at the parcel level, with direct comps and a walk-through, rather than leaning on aggregate neighborhood figures.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Forty Eighth Street. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
