2575 18th Ave S, St Petersburg 33712 · Active · September 13, 2026
2575 18th Ave S, St Petersburg is asking $189,000: 3 bed, 1 bath, 1,080 sf, built 1948, on 0.09 acres. 1.77 miles away, 4670 Yarmouth Ave S was bought for $190,000 and sold for $403,000 in May 2025, 182 days later: 2.12× on the recorded deeds. Same era (1958 and 1948), nearly the same size (1,048 sf against 1,080). The photos show a dated interior, and that is the point: the work is where the margin lives. It has already come down $10k and has been on the market 52 days, which is where sellers start listening. I will not put a number on this one on a public page. I will put it in an email, with the closings behind it, if you ask.
Why this one could follow
- The receipt: 4670 Yarmouth Ave S bought $190,000, sold $403,000 (May 2025), 182 days held, 2.12× — from the county record, 1.77 mi from this house.
- Same street, second receipt: 727 18th Ave S bought $170,000, sold $237,000 in Feb 2025 (1.39×).
- Asking $260 per square foot; closings within 87.6 mi ran $267 per foot, so the ask sits under what the street has paid for finished homes.
- 52 days on market, one price cut already ($10k): this seller is negotiable.
- Flood zone X: outside the special flood hazard area, which keeps the insurance quote sane.
- Condition read from the listing photos: dated value-core raw; photo-verified 2026-09-10.
What I would check first
- The last three closings on this exact street, not the ZIP: I pull them from the record before any number gets written down.
- Whether the proven one was a cosmetic job or a gut: the permit history on the county record answers that.
- Roof, AC and electrical dates on the county permit record: they decide the budget more than the kitchen does.
- A written insurance quote before the offer, even in zone X.
