Homes listed or recently sold were built 1977–1979; none of the 4 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 56 ft). As of October 2026, the MLS records 22 closed sales in Frances Arbor South in Temple Terrace, FL since 2006, the most recent in June 2026. Across Temple Terrace as a whole, 184 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $402,500, 40 median days on market, with 76 homes for sale today. At that median and Hillsborough County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.73 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,330 ($5,710 with the full homestead exemption).
Price here is driven by condition and vintage, not by a uniform product. With homes built between 1940 and 2006 and a median build year of 1978, Frances Arbor South is a mixed-age pocket where an updated, mechanically sound house and a deferred-maintenance one can sit on the same street at very different numbers. The median living area sits just under 1,930 square feet, so most of what trades is a mid-size home rather than a starter box.
The turnover signal is thin: only two closings in the window we're reading. That means comps are scarce and each new sale carries outsized weight in setting the next one. For buyers, it argues for patience and a hard look at condition rather than chasing a headline number. For sellers, pricing off a stale or thin comp set is the real risk — presentation and an accurate read of your home's updates matter more than the neighborhood average.

Who Frances Arbor South is best for.
Best for
- Long-hold buyers who value a settled, owner-occupied section and aren't in a rush to close

Probably not for
- Buyers who need new or near-new construction and turnkey systems
- Shoppers who want a deep, active inventory and many comparable sales to choose from
- Investors chasing a rental-heavy block, given the high owner-occupant share

The Frances Arbor South buying strategy.
If we were buying in Frances Arbor South 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 Frances Arbor South.
A seasoned street with an owner-heavy base
The defining trait here is stability of ownership. A homestead share of roughly 74% tells you most of these 201 homes are owner-occupied rather than held as rentals, which typically shows up as steadier upkeep and slower, more considered turnover. That's a double edge: you get a settled section, but inventory can be genuinely tight when few owners are motivated to sell.
Because the build range runs from 1940 to 2006, due diligence is not optional. Roof age, electrical, plumbing, and systems vary widely by house, and the median year built of 1978 means many homes predate current construction standards. Underwrite the individual property, not the block.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Frances Arbor South. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a section this thin on recent closings, the value we add is judgment on a single house, not a spreadsheet average. We'll help you weigh vintage against condition, pressure-test a listing price against a small comp set, and tell you plainly when a home's updates justify the ask — or when they don't.
