St. Petersburg, Florida · Licensed Broker BK3616394
St. Petersburg property management built for downtown renters and out-of-state owners.
St. Pete doesn't rent like Tampa. Tenants are leaning into downtown walkability, the Central Ave arts scene, and the Gulf coast lifestyle — and they expect the listing to show it. Ocean Blue markets St. Pete rentals with that in mind: 3D tours, better-than-average photos, multi-platform syndication, and honest days-on-market reporting. We run the whole thing under Florida Real Estate Broker License BK3616394.
Who we help in St. Petersburg
Ocean Blue works with a mix of local owners, first-time landlords, and out-of-state investors. If you fit one of these profiles, your situation is one we handle every week.
Downtown condo owners
You own a unit in DTSP, Beach Drive, or the Edge District. We handle HOA coordination, parking allocation, and the amenity logistics that Tampa-only managers tend to underestimate.
Old Northeast / historic homeowners
You moved out of your Old Northeast or Crescent Lake home and kept it as a rental. We market it to the tenant profile it actually attracts — professionals, relocators, small families — not a generic listing template.
Out-of-state investors
You bought in Shore Acres, Disston Heights, or Euclid-St. Paul and don’t live in Florida. We are the boots-on-the-ground team — showings, inspections, maintenance, and eviction handling when rare but needed.
Coastal / flood-aware owners
Shore Acres, Snell Isle, and the barrier islands need a manager who actually pays attention to flood zones, storm prep, and inspection timing. We do. We don’t quote flood insurance; owners keep their own policy.
What owners need in St. Petersburg
Pricing tuned to St. Pete, not Tampa
St. Pete tenants are shopping against a different comparable set than Tampa tenants. We price against downtown walkability, Central Ave access, and arts-district demand — the factors that actually drive rent in this market.
Listings that show the lifestyle
3D virtual tours, wide-angle photography, and copy that lead with the walk to the pier, the bike to the Gulfport farmers market, or the drive to the beach. Syndicated to every major rental platform on day one.
Coordinated HOA and condo leasing
HOA applications, move-in fees, amenity onboarding, parking passes — we handle them so you don’t have to chase a management company that has never heard of your building.
Storm and flood-season readiness
We pre-coordinate vendors for hurricane prep, communicate directly with tenants during named storm events, and verify post-storm condition. Owners get status updates without having to ask.

Frequently asked questions
Which St. Petersburg neighborhoods do you serve?
Downtown St. Pete (DTSP), Old Northeast, Crescent Lake, Historic Kenwood, Snell Isle, Shore Acres, Euclid-St. Paul, Disston Heights, and the Central Ave corridor. We also manage properties in Gulfport and along the Pinellas Gulf coast.
How is St. Petersburg different from Tampa for owners?
St. Pete rental demand is tied more tightly to downtown employers, the Central Ave corridor, and the arts district, and a larger portion of tenants are relocating professionals. Photos, 3D tours, and copy on St. Pete listings tend to lean into walkability more than in most of Tampa.
Do you handle flood-zone properties in St. Pete?
Yes. We do not quote flood insurance (owners carry their own policies), but we do help coordinate inspections, disclosures, and tenant communication around coastal-flood events. We also route storm-prep maintenance for properties in lower-elevation zones.
How much does property management cost?
Monthly management and leasing fees vary by property type, location, and service tier. We publish a transparent fee schedule after a free rental analysis — no obligation and no setup fee. Call (813) 246-4314 or request a quote through the form on this page.
How quickly can you place a qualified tenant?
Once photography, the 3D virtual tour, and syndication are live, most properties start generating showings within days. Days-on-market depends on pricing, condition, and season; we report it honestly in every weekly vacancy update instead of promising a fixed window.
Do you work with out-of-state owners?
Yes. A large share of our owners live outside Florida. We handle every in-person step locally (showings, move-ins, inspections, maintenance) and push everything else to a 24/7 owner portal with itemized statements, work orders, and year-end 1099s.
Are you a licensed Florida real estate brokerage?
Yes. Ocean Blue Property Management, Inc. holds Florida Real Estate Broker License BK3616394, issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. The broker of record is Thomas P. Corinti.
How does tenant screening work?
Every applicant is screened through credit, background, income (typically 3× monthly rent), and rental-history verification. Screening criteria are applied uniformly to every applicant in compliance with the federal Fair Housing Act and the Florida Fair Housing Act.
