Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Saint Petersburg, FL, are averaging 6.3%, reflecting the broader market environment for property owners in this area.

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.


Key Findings

  1. median sold price: $376,350 is the primary indicator of recent transaction value, and given the down year-over-year price trend this level signals a market that has softened relative to prior periods.

  2. median days on market: 259 combined with the cold market temperature suggests slower sales velocity and increased holding time for sellers, which may indicate pricing friction rather than immediate buyer urgency.

  3. median listing price: $484,950 sitting above the median sold price points to a gap between seller expectations and completed transactions and, together with elevated inventory relative to sales activity, may pressure sellers to reduce asking prices to achieve closings.

  4. median price per square foot: $166 and median market rent: $2,091 provide context for valuation and rental comparables while the moderate interest rate pressure and prevailing 30-year fixed mortgage rate averaging 6.3% may continue to dampen purchase power and transaction momentum.

Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Saint Petersburg, FL, are averaging 6.3%, reflecting the broader market environment for property owners in this area.

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.


Key Findings

  1. median sold price: 468,000 is the primary indicator of market value and, combined with the price year-over-year trend down, indicates recent transaction-level softening in the 33705 market.

  2. median days on market: 276 reflects materially slower sales velocity and aligns with the market temperature being cold, which may increase negotiating leverage for buyers and extend time-to-contract windows for sellers.

  3. median price per square foot: 419 alongside the median market rent of 2,000 and rent year-over-year trend down suggests rental demand and pricing are softening, while interest rate pressure is moderate, which can continue to weigh on buyer affordability.

  4. median sold price: 468,000 must be interpreted with the observed sample showing relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample; this supply relationship may provide some floor to declines but does not negate the broader cooling signals from price and rental trends.
