Thank you for tackling this subject. Its a fact that there are many people who are going to WANT to sell. You approached this so professionally. Thank you.
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Florida. I no longer live in Florida- lived thru Irma in Naples in 2017 and know how trying the approach of a hurricane can be- please stay safe!
This is a very necessary topic and your timing is perfect. The hurricanes going to hit tomorrow and after it's done people are going to need information because they are going to have decisions that need to be made.
Hurricane Ian (cat 5) hit us hard in 2022. We are 3 miles inland from Fort Myers Beach. We got the storm surge. The entire interior and pool cage (tree fell on it) were totaled. FEMA did nothing for us and our insurance did not cover all damages. Milton brought heavy winds and the storm surge did not touch our house - it came within 6 feet of the pool wall/bushes. We were lucky. So what is the best time to sell ...if that's the way to even go?
Live in nj. No gun problems, awesome schools, world class healthcare (no concierge), beautiful season changes, clean air, nice beaches, very few storms. Ya, I’m staying here 🎉
As a retiree who is looking to relocate (I'm in California), after seeing the destruction from Helene and the images of the evacuation, along with the condo and insurance crises, I have removed Florida from my list of possibilities. I've decided to not relocate to a place with a hurricane, flood, fire, tornado, or earthquake history. I am playing it safe in my possibly 30 years of retirement.
I retired 22 years ago at 45. Moved from San Jose CA to Phoenix which was a the last city on Earth I thought I'd want to live. Turns out I love it here. My fav US spot. For reference I've lived in NY, FL, TX, CA, AK, AZ and Germany. Phoenix is nothing like I expected. I even enjoy the summer heat. Yeah, I know, insane. I walk 2 hours everyday, midday. I have a great Japanese style garden that I screw around in for another 2-4 hours many days. Dawn to about 9-10 am is very nice in summer. Oct-Apr are really great. San Jose had good weather too, but even less rain here which I like. Many pluses for retired people in Phoenix. I personally don't like the new build and retirement communities. I started in a new development way north, then closer in and now in north central Phoenix which I love. Can walk everywhere and love older homes. Because of the climate houses don't require as much maintenance. Planning to move to SE Asia next year. Always sad to leave a spot, but on to a new adventure.
im in naples fl. i suggest stay away from florida. this is a dyin state. soon noone will be able to afford property insurance here. i recommend las cruces new mexico
Yes this will be an opportunity for those that are wealthy to purchase properties HOWEVER these weather systems are not going to stop. So I don’t care how much money someone has constant damage to your home or condo just is not appealing.
So true, as we are sitting in Naples week 2 of wondering if we will be safe , do I stay or do I go now, if I stay there will be trouble, if I go there will be double, 😂. C'mon and let me know should I stay or should I go! Thing is 10 hours to get to Miami, can't get gas, cars are stalling out. No hotels to be had around the state, are we in the eye, out of the eye. And 3 weeks ago there was another storm and we had calls from the county for tornadoes and to safety immediately. So there will be a mess to clean up, most likely red tide will reappear, can't go in the water due to debris, then snowbirds show up and back to terrible traffic. If you are not here to be close to family, this is a lot of anxiety, crying meteorologists, poisonous frogs, vultures, alligators etc. Nothing is worse than flooding.
What you say is the reason we left Florida- Naples was too expensive for our son and his family to relocate near- us low paying jobs high cost housing- and the threat of hurricanes for seniors with health issues was just not worth it!
I've lived many places, NY to CA, AK to FL. All had great aspects and bad aspects. I liked FL a lot, but the hurricanes and summer heat/humidity are bummers. CA the earthquakes got old. In both cases home insurance became a problem because of the real risk and cost. In Phoenix for 22 years. Been nice that natural disaster risk is almost zero. Thunderstorms, wind, hail is a risk, but fairly rare and minimal damage. Moving to SE Asia next year. Typhoon and earthquake risk is high there but I'll be a renter there. A 3/2 house on a rocky beach rents for $400-700/mo USD. That's less than many in FL pay for insurance.
To be honest dear friend 2023 moved to Naples - all ok except power - but to be honest I was going to move to Naples but if every year there will be hurricane issues? I will remain in CA - go to Palm Springs area instead.. Thank you so much.
And buyers wanting out no matter the cost will be happy to take the cash and run. No one will be forcing owners to accept low offers. The market as always will determine the values. If a lot of people want out values will fall. I don't think you're going to see a lot of buyers because there is a valid reason for many wanting out. Buyers know just as well as owners what the risk is. Maybe values got too high for the risk. Couple of hurricanes maybe reminding both owners and buyers what the risk looks like.
I lived in Pensacola and in many other states. Been in Phoenix AZ 22 years now. Love it. I am moving to SE Asia next year for a new adventure, but will miss Phoenix. I even came to love the heat. Actually look forward to summer. Sunshine is addictive. Don't miss the FL hurricanes, the TX tornados, the CA earthquakes. Here in Phoenix a light rain is a huge event. We don't even get dew so I can leave out tools and no rust.
Who’s going to buy? Maybe a developer who has the money to build hurricane resistant structures. This really is a shame….and Florida is the land of flim-flam artists…
Standard cycle. Most rebuilds will be much higher end homes and businesses. More wealthy people moving in, prices higher. FL is still a desirable location for wealthy people from the US and other countries. It's not like they have to live there during hurricane season.

I find it annoying when a Naples/ St Louis Missouri Realtor doesn't live on the beach and yet they try to act like they are an expert. Let the Realtors on the beach handle the sales on the beach. Me personally, I wouldn't buy from an agent who didn't live on the beach. If you don't live there then you have no business pretending to be an expert in an area that you are just grifting off of. Stay in your own area of expertise. I am not an agent but people like you really are offensive. YOU are the ambulance chaser.
I have 4 condos on the beach. Im sorry you feel that way about me. No one that knows me thinks Im anywhere close to an ambulance chaser. Im sorry we wont be friends. Best of luck in finding someone you enjoy watching. Clearly that isnt me.
I suspect you are one of the YOLO/FOMOs who recently (2021-2023) overpaid for a property and now you are seeing your investment drop in value to where it should have been in the first place. A property is worth what one can sell it for. A “low ball” offer may be the actual value of that property now. It’s no longer 2022. Some sellers still haven’t gotten the message as their ridiculously priced properties rot on the market. I realize “low ball” offers that are accepted and closed drive down the comps; but, those who realized the market was stupid and decided to sit it out seem to be the more financially responsible.

You are a warrior, be safe. Am in Ormond Beach and so glad we choose the East Coast vs West, we hope we dodge a bullit..
I have been on the east coast when Jeannie and Frances blew thru don’t assume your safe or better off on the east coast versus west coast

Which is why you're unlikely to have sudden surge of buyers with cash. Most wealthy buyers don't want to buy projects and they have other options.
Can you compare perhaps few years back this hurricance issue? Are the number basically the same though not every year as catastrophic as 2024?
if you can handle property insurance rise of %30-%40 annually year after year then buy a home in fl

More people each year makes evacuations even more difficult.

Im considering of buying a house in Cape Coral or fort myers to put on Airbnb. How is the Airbnb market there ?
You know exactly what is going to happen- prospective purchasers are going to go for the jugular with all cash, quick closing offers…
And buyers wanting out no matter the cost will be happy to take the cash and run. No one will be forcing owners to accept low offers. The market as always will determine the values. If a lot of people want out values will fall. I don't think you're going to see a lot of buyers because there is a valid reason for many wanting out.

Florida was forecast to become swampland long ago.
Nadine is next.
Jimmies are what sprinkles are called by transplants from Philadelphia.

Ready to buy up beach property
Beaches are gone.
I wouldnt buy in Florida, even for $1.

I didn't know you are not from Florida (I only saw it in other comments). It makes sense though, because I can't see any tattoos on you. HA-HA!!
Ive been in Florida 17+ years. Im from the Midwest.
you should be ashamed of yourself worrying about real estate at this time
You clearly didnt watch the video.
I dont get how you could have that take away from this video. You missed the point Mark. Or youre trolling.
