“This year’s State of the Market event is being held amidst a backdrop of steadily rising property values and will highlight the resilience of the Tampa Bay real estate market, both in residential and commercial properties. But these rising values also raise the issue of housing affordability for buyers and renters alike,” according to a press release.

“It’s crucial for us to monitor these trends closely and work together to ensure sustainable and inclusive housing for all residents,” Henriquez said. “We are once again witnessing a dynamic real estate market in our area but that is tempered with affordability concerns.”
