6701 Orchard Dr N, St Petersburg is asking $324,900: 2 bed, 1 bath, 1,202 sf, built 1955, on 0.17 acres. 0.1 miles away, 6525 15th St N, St Petersburg, Fl 33702 was bought for $315,000 in Feb 2025 and sold for $555,000 in Apr 2026, 429 days later: 1.76× on the recorded deeds. Same era (1955 and 1955), 2,227 sf against this one’s 1,202, so part of that resale was an addition. It has already come down $10k and has been on the market 82 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: 6525 15th St N, St Petersburg, Fl 33702 bought $315,000 (Feb 2025), sold $555,000 (Apr 2026), 429 days held, 1.76× — from the county record, 0.1 mi from this house.
- 82 days on market, one price cut already ($10k): this seller is negotiable.
- Flood zone AE: budget the flood policy before you write.
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 grew: it resold at 2,227 sf against 1,202 here, so its price included an addition and the budget has to too.
- Roof, AC and electrical dates on the county permit record: they decide the budget more than the kitchen does.
- An insurance quote before the offer: the flood zone here makes it a real number.
The play behind this home: The ugliest house on the best street is the best deal on the street.. More in St Petersburg and Pinellas County.
