Waterside
Condos for Sale in Tampa, FL

Waterside Condo market snapshot (as of September 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $86K ($98 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 125 days on market for closed sales, and 4.5 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 5% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales (6 closings in the current window).

Waterside Condo is a community of 149 homes in Tampa, Hillsborough County, built between 1986 and 2005 (median 1986), with a median living area of about 1,227 square feet. 28% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

This is an older, small-footprint condo community where units are close in size, so the real price variable is condition. With homestead status on roughly a quarter of the 154 homes, a meaningful share of the inventory is held as something other than a primary residence.

With 154 homes all in a tight square-footage band and a median build year of 1986, the difference between units comes down to what has been done inside them and where they sit in the community. That's why we steer clients here toward reading the specific unit, not the median. A renovated interior, an upper floor, or a better outlook can justify sitting above the $84,600 median; a tired unit that needs a full refresh should be priced accordingly.

The 8.0% year-over-year decline and a 40-day median days-on-market tell you buyers currently hold leverage. That's an opening for someone buying to hold or to occupy, but it also means anyone counting on a quick flip should be cautious. HOA financials, reserves, and any special assessments are the make-or-break items in a community of this age — those documents deserve as much attention as the unit itself.

In a condition-driven condo market like this one, the median tells you almost nothing about the unit in front of you. We price and evaluate on the specifics — updates, floor, view, and the health of the association — and in a market down 8.0% year over year, that discipline is what protects both buyers negotiating and sellers who need to move at the right number.
