I know I’ll never afford anything in Tampa but I loveeee all the work that is being poured into Tampa. That an American City it's now focusing on the walk ability, and green spaces but also honoring history. I truly believe Tampa is (and you could argue is already) going to be the next big thing, and If this continues I think it could be the best city in America. Great video I love Tampa

Everything you said is exactly the problem with the area. Building housing for a particular niche of the market that the majority can't afford. In an area that doesn't even have the job market to support it. That's why Florida is ground zero for all housing cycles.

Great video and yeah Tampa's core is finally filling out. One thing I like is that unlike other cities in Florida, Tampa has history. What sucks is home prices have not gone down and that has locked my family out of the home market. 400,000 is not affordable for most. So I wonder who is buying these homes? I assume people from up north or overseas who have cash.

tampa is a sinking ship, i move here 4 years ago, and it went up during covid, but everyone is abandoning the city for a long list of reason, but most people i know move out, real estate is dropping like a dead duck out of the sky due to high insurance from all the hurricane in the last 3 years. It didn't double it triple to quaddrouple in some flood zone areas. It'll be very interesting to see a ton of empty real estate when they are completing it in a few years, as if it's not already pretty dead.
