The Alafia River which runs quietly through Riverview and empties into the Hillsborough Bay is the focal point of this growing Florida town. On the weekends you will find many Riverview residents out on the Alafia River enjoying the many activities a river can provide such as boating, fishing, skiing, canoeing, jet-skiing, or just having a cookout at the Riverview Civic Center, which is right next door to the river.

Riverview is one of the more affordable places to live for those looking to relocate as the commute is not long to Tampa and St Petersburg. Big city infrastructure is nearby, but the quaintness of Riverview remains.

Work With A Riverview Realtor

Eaton Realty has helped homebuyers find homes throughout Riverview, including the popular Panther Trace neighborhood. Whatever your needs, our Eaton realtors can help you find the home of your dreams for the next chapter of your life in Riverview. Finding a home can be stressful, but our realtors have the expertise needed to find a home that meets your needs at a fair price within your budget. We make the process simple by breaking it down into three easy steps:

1. Pre-approval: Before starting a home search, it’s important to know what your budget will be. The Eaton team can help you get connected with a mortgage broker who will get you pre-approved for a mortgage.
2. Search: Our realtors will guide you through the search for your new home. We’ll start by sitting down to discuss your needs and wants so that we can create a custom search to find houses that will suit you. You will receive emails with homes from our searches that meet your criteria to review, and your realtor will schedule tours of homes you’re interested in viewing at times that work with your schedule.
3. Close: Once you find the perfect home, we will continue to assist you throughout the closing process. Our work isn’t complete until you’ve closed on your new home.

From creating a search to find the best homes to negotiating prices, our realtors have the knowledge and experience needed to smoothly guide you through the house hunting process. Our goal is to make you feel supported and make the process easy so you can focus on making your housing dreams a reality. If you're looking for an investment property instead of a primary residence, we can also help you through our Riverview property management services. Ready to get started searching for a home?
