Sama,

I am an investor and agent in the St. Petersburg area. Rents vary significantly depending on the neighborhood. I recommend looking at rental comps specific to the neighborhood of each property. Also, rentometer is a great resource. 

If you have any other questions or are looking for an investor-friendly agent in the St Pete/Clearwater Area, I’m more than happy to help!
