Nine central Tampa developments will be open this Saturday for the Urban Tour of Homes.
Discover what Urban Living is all about! For one day only, 9 of the hottest developments in Tampa will be open to the public! Take a personal tour through some of the Bay Area’s most exclusive new residences and find out why so many people are deciding to calling the city “Home.”
Urban living! It sounds very exciting, doesn’t it?
Participating Developments include Skypoint (777 N. Ashley Drive), Ventana (1238 E. Kennedy Boulevard), The Slade (119 N. 11th Street), Grand Central at Kennedy (1208 E. Kennedy Boulevard), Victory Lofts (101 S. 12th Street), West End Tampa (301 N. Rome), InTown Homes (2008 N. Albany Ave), Harbour Place City Homes (501 Knights Run Rd.), and the Towers of Channelside (445 S. 12th Street).
Five are in Channelside, and there are one each in northeast downtown, Harbour Island, West Tampa, and North Hyde Park. Neither the website nor the printable flyer include any information on parking or transportation between the developments, so (outside of Channelside) you may have to experience these non-walkable places with your own car…

I had been wondering when they were goign to hold this next.
A lot of people aren’t in the market to move right now (buying and selling being tough) but seeing these places for yoruself is still a nice way to spend a Saturday

Unfortunately, several of those “communities” are also leasing units at the same time they are offering units for sale. Why on earth would anyone buy a condo when surrounded by renters?

Because they might want to actually live there and don’t give a damn if the neighbors are coming and going leasers?
I mean seriously, if you are looking at a place to live, do you really think the neighbors arrangement for why they occupy the nearby domicile is a priority?

Actually, if you ever want to sell the property in the future, then yes, it does matter.
And while the developer probably has a sweetheart deal with a bank to finance the current buyers, most lenders do not look kindly on properties that are filled with mostly renters.

I’m from Manhattan and inspite of the condo/coop boom here we’re still a city of renters. I bought a condo at The Slade but it doesn’t make me feel anymore superior to renters. Get over it.

Come se the 400K condos for the 32K earners! Yes, pay for it in sunshine! Go Tampa, building the future on the backs of people like us, for people that are not us.

I don’t believe buyers feel superior to renters. It is simply that renters are generally less concerned about the long-term value of the property, therefore, many of them do not take care of it as an owner would. I believe THAT is the concern most owners have with neighbor leasers/renters.

I’ve been a renter all my life and taken care of my apartment as well as I plan to take care of what I’m buying Tampa.
