What Tampa Neighborhoods are Safe? Tampa Real Estate News

When families are searching for homes in Tampa, many of them ask about safety . They often ask for a home in a gated community. While Tampa is a very large city, there is very little serious crime in most residential neighborhoods. It really is a great city to live in!

This week, I received an email from a client, which included a new site, that I will share with my readers. Felonspy searches for convicted criminals within the radius of a particular address.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement provides information on the location of sexual predators on its website. You can search by name, or see if any offenders live in a Tampa neighborhood where you are considering buying a home. It is one more piece of disclosure that real estate agents should offer to their clients.
I believe in going above and beyond what the law requires real estate agents to disclose. If I have knowledge of any site, or resource, that helps families make better home-buying decisions, I am happy to share it! If you need help buying a home in the Tampa Real Estate Market, I am happy to assist you!

I can help with your move to any Tampa neighborhood, including: South Tampa, Harbour Island, Davis Islands, Beach Park, Sunset Park, Hyde Park, Channelside, Culbreath Isles, Palma Ceia, Westchase, Waterchase, Odessa, Cheval, Avila, Brandon, Riverview, FishHawk, New Tampa, Tampa Palms, Hunters Green, Arbor Greene, Apollo Beach, South Shore, MiraBay, Golf Communities, Waterfront Homes, Luxury Homes in Tampa, Condos in Tampa and International Real Estatecontact me!

Pizza

After you buy a house in Tampa, you will be searching for all of the best places to eat.

I have been dying for a pizza this week! An engrossing schedule has kept me from surrendering to the pizza lust , so far, but it has prompted many conversations with my friends and colleagues about where to best satisfy the yearning for the perfect pizza, in Tampa. Who makes the Best Pizza in Tampa? This calls for a “pizza poll”.

I have had some great pizzas all over the worldthe island of Kauai, Monaco, Florencevery tasty and not a green pepper in sight! For me, its all about the crust. Im the first to scavenge leftover crust off my childrens plates! No limp crust for meI like it crispy!

How do you agree on the best crust? CrispyChewyDoughy? Or, the best toppings.Pepperoni or Proscuiutto? Chicago-style, New York style, or something a little more gourmetlike Chicken Gorgonzola? Sounds like its time for another Sizzle Poll !

Who satisfies your pizza lust in Tampa? What was your most sizzling Pizza experienceanywhere in the world! I want lots of comments here and, take the quiz, “What does your pizza say about you??”

Moving to Tampa? Where to Meet Other “Singles” in the Tampa Bay Area…

Filed under: "Where to Find", Fun and Frolic, How to, Single Parent News, Tampa

My clients often call me to ask Where can I find???anything from bakeries to dog sitters to painters, and more. So, when I received an email from a reader who has just moved to Tampa, asking about how to meet nice people in town, aside from the bar scene , I thought it would be a great topic for a series.

Here is the first article in my How to ‘Find Anything’ in Tampa.. series.

There are a number of singles groups in the area that hold monthly Datingmeetings and have various activities including trips, boating, cruises, gourmet dinners, and many other activities.

Tampa Bay Entertainment has compiled an extensive list of some of the Singles Groups in the Tampa Bay Area.

One of the largest groups in the area is the Westchase Singles Club. They meet monthly in different locations and are planning a cruise for the Labor Day Weekend.

For Single Parents who enjoy traveling, Single Parent Travel organizes a number of trips each year, both in the U.S. and abroad, for single parents traveling with their children.

If you know of another group that should be included in this article, please contact me. Or, if you have a suggestion for another topic on The Real Estate Sizzle, leave a comment below!
