Lloyd,

Thanks for your comments.  There are a lot of factors at play here, in my opinion.  Over the last few years, I have been hearing more and more from people here in Florida that they are "fed up" with the "cookie-cutter" subdivisions with homes being practically on top of one another.  In a lot of places you can almost open your kitchen window and shake hands with your neighbor through THEIR window.  Buyers, and a lot of sellers, have been opting for more space between homes.  Seffner is still quite rural, for the most part.  Many homes are not in a subdivision, and of the ones that are, many of those have larger lots.  That, coupled with somewhat more attractive prices and a smaller inventory, seems to make a difference in this area.

For example, two homes in Seffner that I sold last year (already in the buyers market) went relatively quickly.  One was actively on the market for 45 days with one price change, and the other sold in six days for just over list price and had multiple offers.
