Tampa, FL: what makes this market different

Tampa sellers operate in a Hillsborough County market normalizing after 2022-23 surges — $412K medians with 52-day market times. Hyde Park, Davis Islands, South Tampa, and Westchase each pull distinct buyers. Florida-specific PrepScore exposure includes wind mitigation, roof age (insurance-driven 4-point inspection), and termite/wood-destroying organism reports. NestPrep weights Structural Integrity higher for FL coastal properties and applies hurricane-zone-specific category weights.

What is a PrepScore?

A PrepScore is a 0-to-100 market-readiness score generated by NestPrep for a home about to be listed. It is a weighted average of five seller-relevant dimensions: Structural Integrity (25%), Mechanical Systems (20%), Cosmetic Readiness (20%), Curb Appeal (20%), and Market Readiness (15%). A higher score signals fewer inspection-period surprises and faster days-on-market in Tampa.

The Listing-Ready Value is the projected price range a Tampa home could command after the seller resolves the items in their PrepScore punch list. It is calculated as AVM × (1 + headroom × per-point lift coefficient), where headroom = 100 - PrepScore and the per-point lift coefficient is calibrated against NAR 2025 data showing unprepared sellers leave 4-7% on the table.

Why this matters

Most sellers leave money on the table — quietly.

The losses don't show up as a single number. They hide in price reductions, inspection credits, and weeks of carrying cost. Your PrepScore surfaces them before they happen — and tells you which ones are worth fixing.
