Suburban Tampa Real Estate is a refreshing Change

Tampa offers a variety of real estate opportunities, not only on the coast and waterways, but in other areas, as well.  There are suburban communities near downtown Tampa that offer affordable housing for any sized families, professionals, and retirees.  The prospective buyer can enjoy a quick commute to any destination in the Tampa area and also continue to stay active locally with the amenities provided.  Here are some communities that offer a wide range of affordable homes in the suburban Tampa area:

Brandon - Brandon is a quaint suburban community due east of downtown Tampa that offers accessibility to commuters to cultural locations, sporting venues, and beaches.  There are several golf courses near the Brandon area to experience a challenge for any level of player.  Buckhorn Springs Golf and Country Club, Diamond Hill Golf and Country Club, and Bloomingdale Golfer’s Club are just a few.  There are several parks to enjoy hiking, picnics, and outdoor activities, including Brandon Municipal Park, Limona Park, and J.C. Handley County Park.  There are many different styles and sizes of homes available in Brandon with prices starting in the low $100,000’s for a single family home.

Valrico - Valrico is a community on the rise located due east of downtown Tampa on State Road 60, providing convenient access to major highways for commuters and travelers.  Valrico offers a combination of traditional style homes and newer ones.  The key to this area is affordability, as the median home price in June of 2008 in Valrico was $225,000 (for 80 homes sold).  There are still many rural areas in Valrico, offering a small town appeal to buyers who like to feel detached from the urban life of Tampa.

Riverview - Riverview is located thirty minutes southeast of downtown Tampa near I-75.  Riverview provides an ideal location for work, play and residence.  Take a short trip to the Lithia Springs State Park to visit the natural springs or take a walk along the Alafia River.  Plan an outing to the Riverview Park where kids and adults alike can enjoy fun and outdoor activities.   Bank-owned properties can be bought for as low as $100,000.  Beautiful single-family resale homes start in the low $100,000’s, as well.

Tampa suburban real estate possibilities are endless.  The convenience of commute, along with the unlimited activities make the Tampa suburbs an ideal place to relocate with a family, as professionals, or even retired.  See what you are missing in the greater Tampa area today.
