Seminole has some decent looking waterfront homes. Is that the same as Tierra Verde?

CigDaze

No, Seminole and Tierre Verde are NOT the same.

TV is Zip Code 33715.

I have seen house prices drop a little. I don't know if that holds true for Pinellas County.

The ICW runs between Tierra Verde and St Pete Beach. That is where you can find little coves to ski in. So you would be very close to areas you could water ski.

Toying with the idea of a 2nd home. The calming of the market is a factor. Entire east coast possible too depending on what you can get for your $ and the boating scene.

2112 nice one ,afraid its work for me but the boating does seem good .

Actually, It would start out as a 2nd home just to get into the market before the next upswing. It is very possible it could become a permanent relocation. That is why I was questioning the basis for the local economy.

That is why I am looking at "up and coming" areas rather than the established hot spots. For example, love Naples, can't afford it, or I am not willing to do what it would take to get into that market. Plus, performance boating is an absolute requirement so Naples may not be the best anyway.

Lots of beautiful areas to consider. People here who know the area well can give great insight. For example Seminole vs Vierra Terde, there is a noticible difference in waterfront housing. Is it that Seminole is not hot yet or is it a less than desirable area for some reason?

Most of Seminole is landlocked, with some not so nice areas. About 80% of Tierra Verde is on the water. Many more different types and places to boat closer to Tierra Verde.

Technically, the ICW runs from New Jersey, around Florida, all the way to Brownsville Texas.
