Local Insight
At $213/sqft you're paying below the Tampa market average, which is solid value for a three-bedroom in a deed-restricted community, though the 1989 build means you'll want a thorough inspection for age-related systems like HVAC and plumbing. The HOA is reasonable at $147/month and you're in X flood zone (no flood insurance required), but the tight 0.16-acre lot and Tampa Palms' strict rules mean limited renovation flexibility if you're planning major changes down the road. This is a straightforward starter home or rental play in a stable neighborhood—nothing flashy, but the numbers work if the bones are solid.
