Temple Crest
Homes for Sale in Tampa, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 17 closed sales in Temple Crest Unit No 1 in Tampa, FL since 2005, the most recent in March 2022. 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).
Price here is driven by condition and structure, not by any single template. With a building range that runs from 1920 to 2024 and a median year built around 1973, this is a patchwork of eras on one map. What you pay tracks closely to how much of the original house has been updated, whether systems have been touched, and how much of the lot has been rebuilt.
The closings data in the current window is thin, so treat any read as directional rather than precise. For sellers, that means the burden is on presentation and honest condition disclosure to anchor a number. For buyers, it means comps require work and a well-prepared, well-inspected offer carries real weight.

The 60-Second Overview
Temple Crest is a 555-home pocket of Tampa in Hillsborough County where a century of building layers together, so the housing stock varies widely block to block rather than following one product type.

The Temple Crest buying strategy.
If we were buying in Temple Crest 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 Temple Crest.
A mixed-vintage street grid
The median living area sits near 1,405 square feet, which points to modest, right-sized footprints as the core of the inventory. Against a build range spanning the 1920s through 2024, expect original cottages, mid-century houses, and newer infill sitting close together. That mix is the defining feature: two homes on the same street can be decades and full renovations apart.
Owner-occupancy runs a little over half, with a homestead share near 53%. That is a meaningful but not overwhelming majority, which tells you a real portion of the stock turns as non-homestead property. For a buyer, the practical takeaway is to underwrite each house on its own merits — age, systems, and scope of prior work — rather than assuming a neighborhood-wide standard.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Temple Crest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
