Pasco County is not slowing down. In fact, it’s experiencing a surge in new projects, particularly in residential and industrial areas. Remember how the 2021 Pasco County 2050 Comprehensive Plan laid out a roadmap for thoughtful expansion?

What does this mean for MLOs and agents?

Data from Rocket Homes indicates that more than half (about 55.2%) of homes sold below asking price in recent weeks. For buyers, that opens a window to negotiate better deals. For sellers, it means strategic pricing and marketing are more critical than ever.

Zillow data confirms ongoing interest in new construction homes, which attract buyers seeking immediate move-in readiness. Meanwhile, resale homes in established communities remain appealing to buyers looking for character, mature landscapes, or lower price points. Agents who can confidently explain why some homes command higher prices—whether because of newness, location, or unique features—will be invaluable to clients navigating these choices.
