Post Shores
Homes for Sale in Odessa, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 3 closed sales in Post Shores Add 1 in Odessa, FL since 2012, the most recent in May 2025. Across Odessa as a whole, 221 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $685,000, 40 median days on market, with 53 homes for sale today. At that median and Hillsborough County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.73 mills, annual property tax runs about $10,770 ($10,150 with the full homestead exemption).
Post Shores Add 1 is a small pocket — 38 homes — with a build timeline that stretches from 1952 to 2019, though the typical home dates to around 1980. That spread means condition and updates, not just square footage, do most of the work in setting value here. Two houses of similar size can present very differently depending on whether they've been touched since the original build era.
With homestead share sitting near 90%, this is a community where most owners have settled in rather than churned through as rentals or flips. That tends to mean less inventory turnover and fewer forced-sale situations, so buyers should expect listings to move at the pace sellers set, not the other way around.
The 60-Second Overview
A modest-sized Odessa community in Hillsborough County where homes run larger than the county norm — a median of 2,831 square feet — inside a build era that spans nearly seven decades.

Who Post Shores is best for.
Best for
- Buyers prioritizing square footage over community amenities
- Buyers comfortable evaluating homes on a case-by-case condition basis given the wide build-year range
- Buyers looking for an established, low-turnover Odessa pocket rather than a high-inventory market
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a newer-build-only search — the median year built sits around 1980
- Buyers who want clubhouse, pool, or other shared amenities as part of the purchase
- Buyers expecting frequent listing turnover in a community this small

The Post Shores buying strategy.
If we were buying in Post Shores 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 Post Shores.
Size over amenities in Post Shores
The defining number in this snapshot is living space: a median of 2,831 square feet puts most homes here well above typical subdivision size. That scale, combined with a median build year around 1980, points to a community of established houses with room to spread out — but also houses old enough that mechanical systems, roofs, and finishes are worth checking listing by listing rather than assuming.
No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, which tells buyers this isn't a lifestyle community built around a clubhouse or shared recreation. The draw is the lot and the house itself, not a shared amenity package — worth factoring into how you compare it against nearby options that do carry HOA-run features.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Post Shores. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
