How Longboat Terrace compares
From the county records
17%
Of the 36 finished houses here carry a homestead exemption, which reads as largely second homes and seasonal owners.
Newest building completed 1979. The roll records no completions here in the last three years, so this is a built-out community rather than one still being delivered.
Arm’s-length sales recorded with Manatee County, read October 2026. Quitclaims, foreclosures, family transfers and pre-construction sales are excluded. Homestead requires the property to be a permanent residence, so the share carrying one is a strong proxy for how many owners live here full time, not a census of them.
