We Buy Pinellas CountyHouses & Land. As-Is.
St. Petersburg first — Kenwood, Disston Heights, Lealman, Childs Park, Shore Acres, the Old Northeast — then Clearwater, Largo, Pinellas Park and the rest of the county. The older block house with the flat roof, the vacant lot the county keeps taxing. Pinellas is where we buy the most, with our own money and our own crews, and where we move the fastest.
Where We Buy In Pinellas
The whole county, from the Skyway to the Pasco line. These are the places we get the most calls from.
Pinellas is the most built-out county in Florida. There is almost no empty land left, so the value in this county sits in two places: the older houses that were built between 1950 and 1975 and have not been updated since, and the scattered lots — a vacant parcel, a double lot beside a house, a teardown on a big lot — that a builder can turn into new housing.
That is exactly what House Hack does. We buy the tired block house and our own crews rebuild it. We buy the lot and we build on it. Because we are the builder, we can pay for what a property can become, not just what it is today. Most cash buyers cannot say that.
What We Buy In Pinellas County
If it is in Pinellas and the owner wants a clean, direct sale, we want to look at it.
Older block houses
1950s–70s concrete block, original roof, terrazzo under the carpet, a kitchen nobody has changed. Any condition, including houses that have sat empty for years.
Storm-damaged and half-finished
Water intrusion from 2024, a roof that was tarped and never replaced, a renovation that ran out of money. We buy it where it stands.
Vacant lots and double lots
A buildable lot in St. Pete, Largo or Clearwater — or extra land beside your house that could be its own parcel. We check zoning and lot-split rules ourselves.
Inherited houses
Parents' house in Seminole or Pinellas Park, siblings out of state, a house full of belongings. We close when probate allows and you leave what you do not want.
Rentals you are done with
A duplex in St. Pete or a single-family rental with a tenant in place and a repair list that keeps growing. We buy with the tenant in place.
Mobile homes on their own land
An older manufactured home on a lot you own, in Pinellas or across the line in Pasco. The land is what matters to us; the home does not need to be in any particular shape.
How Pinellas Is Different
Three things we check on every Pinellas property before we call you back, because they change the number and the timeline.
- Flood zone and elevation. Most of the coast and much of St. Pete is in a FEMA flood zone. We pull the map first. It is a cost line, not a deal killer.
- Permits and code cases. Pinellas cities are strict about unpermitted work and open code cases, especially after the 2024 storms. We buy houses with open cases; we just need to know about them.
- Lot size, width and zoning. On lots and on houses with extra land, the zoning district decides what can be built — and whether a lot can be split. We check it in the county and city records ourselves.
Local, Not A Call Center
The person who calls you back has looked at your property in the county records before dialing.
- Our own crews in Tampa Bay. We renovate and build what we buy. That is why we can commit to a price and a date.
- A local title company. Closings run through a licensed Florida title company that handles Pinellas probate, lien payoffs and out-of-state sellers every week.
- One number, answered. Call or text (727) 613-0241. A team member picks up; nobody reads you a script.

Just Across The County Line
Pinellas is the focus. We also buy the same kind of house right at its edge — the Tampa neighborhoods across the bridges and the Pasco towns that touch the county line (Holiday, New Port Richey, Trinity).
We Actually Buy
A local buying company — not a lead reseller, not a franchise call center.
- Our own money, our own crews. 7+ years and 40+ houses and lots bought with our own funds — then renovated by our own construction team.
- A real number, in writing. We price off actual local sales and bring a written offer, usually within a day of seeing the property.
- Land too. Vacant lots, acreage, and houses with extra land are our specialty — most buyers won't touch them; we build on them.
- Local and reachable. Tampa headquarters, a real phone line, and a team that answers it.

Pinellas Questions
What Pinellas County owners ask us before they decide anything.
Do you buy the older concrete-block houses in St. Petersburg and Pinellas Park?
Yes — they are most of what we buy. A 1950s or 60s block house with the original roof, cast-iron drains, a jalousie porch and a kitchen that has not been touched is exactly the kind of property our crews rebuild. You do not fix anything before we buy it.
My house took water in the 2024 storms and I never finished the repairs. Can you still buy it?
Yes. We buy houses with open damage, gutted interiors, and unfinished work. Tell us what happened and what has been done since, and we will price it from there. You do not need to complete anything first.
The county says my house is in a flood zone. Does that kill the offer?
No. Most of coastal Pinellas is in a flood zone. It is one of the inputs to our number, not a reason to say no. We check the FEMA map before we call you back, so you will not be surprised by anything we say.
I own a vacant lot in Pinellas. Is that something you buy?
Yes, and it is a specialty. A buildable lot in St. Petersburg, Largo or Clearwater is valuable to a company that builds. We check zoning, lot width, utilities and flood zone ourselves — you do not have to know any of that.
My property is in probate. Can we still start?
Yes. We can price the property, sign an agreement with the personal representative, and close when the court allows. Our title company works with Pinellas probate cases every week.
Which parts of Pinellas do you buy in?
All of it. St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Pinellas Park, Seminole, Tarpon Springs, Dunedin, Palm Harbor, Gulfport, Kenneth City, the beaches, and unincorporated Pinellas. We also buy across the county line in Pasco and Hillsborough.
Rather Just Talk To A Person?
Call or text — a real local team member answers, not a phone tree. No obligation, no pressure, and if our number doesn't work for you, we part as friends.
