Investment Read

The 1 bedroom is the segment that has repriced. The monthly leased median went from $1,775 in July on 14 leases to $1,650 in August, $1,500 in September on 31 leases and $1,495 so far in October. Listings posted in the last 30 days came on at a $1,445 median, 9.5% under the prior 30 days, and the current asking median of $1,495 sits under the $1,650 leased median for the full 180 days. An owner setting a 1 bedroom rent off a lease signed in the summer is pricing above what is on the market today. Year over year, the 1 bedroom leased median is down 6.0%, $1,500 against $1,595.

Size still carries the 1 bedroom. Units under 600 square feet average $3.27 per square foot ($1,532 a month), while the 600 to 899 square foot core averages $2.60 ($1,725). Small 1 bedrooms and studios hold the strongest per-foot pricing in the neighborhood; studios under 600 square feet average $3.71.

Studios are the steadiest segment. The 30 day asking median is $1,295, unchanged from the prior 30 days, only 4 of 62 studio listings took a price cut, and the leased median is up 9.8% year over year, $1,313 against $1,195 on samples of 22 and 14 leases. The 2 bedroom carries the widest citywide premium at +17.1%, but listings in the last 30 days came on at $2,050, 6.8% under the prior 30 days, and 10.2% of 2 bedroom listings took a price cut.

Strengths

  • Units leased in a median of 14 days, and 91.2% of 160 leases closed within 90 days.
  • Asking rents run 6.9% to 17.1% above the St. Petersburg citywide median on studios, 1 bedrooms and 2 bedrooms.
  • Concessions are rare: 1 of 267 tracked listings (0.4%).

Considerations

  • 1 bedroom leased medians fell from $1,775 in July to $1,495 in October, and new 1 bedroom listings came on 9.5% under the prior 30 days.
  • 1 bedroom leased rents are down 6.0% year over year, $1,500 against $1,595.
  • 2 bedroom asks in the last 30 days are 6.8% under the prior 30 days, and 10.2% of 2 bedroom listings took a price cut.
Pricing
The middle range is $1,199 to $1,413 for studios, $1,345 to $1,695 for 1 bedrooms and $1,883 to $2,399 for 2 bedrooms. Studios have held at a $1,295 ask; 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom asks have come down over the last 30 days.
Velocity
Median 14 days from listing to lease across 160 leases; 63.7% leased within 30 days and 91.2% within 90.
Supply
105 units advertised in the last 45 days, 55 of them 1 bedrooms, 32 studios and 16 2 bedrooms. 142 properties carried a listing in the last 180 days.
Concessions
1 of 267 tracked listings (0.4%) advertised a concession, $500 off on a 2 bedroom. Price cuts, not concessions, are how owners here adjust: 24 listings took one over 180 days.

Advisory Conclusion

The numbers show a neighborhood that still leases quickly, a median of 14 days, while the 1 bedroom has reset lower since the summer. One bedrooms leased at a $1,775 median in July and $1,495 in October, and the current middle range runs $1,345 to $1,695.

An owner in Old Northeast, Snell Isle or Crescent Lake should check each 1 bedroom against the current range rather than the last lease signed, and look at 2 bedroom asks against the $2,050 median now on the market. Studios are holding at $1,295.
