thats why you should buy the smallest nicest house possible. the McMansion craze of the last 30 years has really been something to see. My parents had one built in 2007 because it was their lifelong dream to have the "big house, big yard" but big problems came with it. in Stafford Virginia of all places.
The homes are way over priced. Add inflated taxes and insurance - not to mention high interest rates! Hoa fees are crazy too. People can’t sell them because market is crashing and they are sitting tight waiting for the prices to go back to pre-Covid prices.
I agree, I can’t wait to see if this trend of increased inventory and price reductions during the busiest time of the year to go into the fall and winter months.
Developers are paving over my formerly beautiful Mount Dora. I really only function well in a small town. I see many of the long time locals feeling the same. This growth is absolutely disgusting. Where to go next?
I’ve always wanted to live in FL, but not at the expense of my retirement and peace of mind. How can I pay cash for a house in FL and STILL have a higher payment just in taxes and insurance than I do for my entire mortgage where I live now? Of course, most homes in FL are overpriced, and most will go down, but I’m more concerned about the taxes and insurance. There seems to be no limit on how high they can both go. I know, no state taxes. I don’t think y’all understand that you pay WAY more taxes in FL, they just call it something else. And now car insurance too??? How much more can this state take before people just get in their cars and leave? This makes me sad.
Totally agree with this, many homeowners who have a paid off house are still paying $2k+ monthly for insurance(s) + taxes, and these costs will only go up with time 😢
I can answer that alyross. Keep your current address and zip code for insurance billing purposes and buy a camper or motor home and live here a month at a time. There are many state campgrounds and they are protected from the blood sucking property tax appraisers who are patrolling the state looking for citizens to gouge.
I paid way more taxes in Virginia than my waterfront gulf access home in Florida. You pay property tax every year on cars, boats, motorcycles and home. I paid Virginia state tax for over 10 years while in the military and only visited a few times. I had to wait until I was stationed in a state with no state tax like Florida and change my residency.
BS. Had a home in Ft. Lauderdale in 1980. It was in a flood zone, built in the 50's. Once every year there would be a 10 inch rain. Streets would get flooded and dry up in a couple days. Weather anomalies occur.
I’m a 50 + year Florida resident. The problem I see here is the increase in population. All these people show up and tremendous building goes on. These new folks all want to live on or near the ocean and gulf. I get the lifestyle but amazed at the stupidity. More people means more roads, more businesses, more infrastructure and so on. All the concrete is not porous and the normally porous soil is slower to absorb the rain water. It’s not climate change here it’s people change. Then there’s the greed factor. The county tax assessors smell the money and proceed after the citizens like Bull Sharks in bloody water. The insurance companies eat the scraps that are left. Us old timers who live in the center of the state have to pay high insurance premiums to offset many of the losses of the coastal dwellers. That’s the cost of having a Florida zip code in your address. I don’t have insurance claims as I live in the middle of the state. While I’d love it if nobody else moved here and if 50% of the non-natives left, I know that just won’t happen. To those of you coming my advice is live at least 10 miles inland, not on the beach. To those leaving, goodbye.
Yes, biggest issue is way too much building activity near the coast. Florida has always been low lying and being in the sub tropics near the ocean has always had a hurricane season, every year. I'm not denying that the climate may be changing but it's a lack of common sense that is the biggest issue...
Climate change is real, and with a warmer climate, stronger hurricanes, rains, and hurricane season has starting early, this looks like a long term problem. Stay safe!
Sorry, being that 2/3 of the actual workforce makes well under 50k a year in florida, and the state being prone to natural disasters, rent should be under 1k a month, and most homes shouldnt exceed 200k in value.
Thanks for the great analysis! Can you look at the housing market in Winter Haven? It's supposed to be one of the fastest growing housing markets in Florida.
Just sold my investment property last week in Tampa. I feel like I was able to get out before the bottom falls out. Definitely less buyers, more nickel and diming and required a 5% price cut, but happy to sell at “relatively” the top.
You definitely got lucky. I’m hearing other stories of people saying they got lucky and sold now moving to other places like South Carolina, Alabama, etc
Between the heat, rain,humidity and the high cost of living, food,rents, house prices, all insurances the state will become a state only the rich can afford.
And I'll say what I always say to this company... Who will be working for the state of rich folks? They are shooing everyone.. Including those who will work for them as well. No more lawns cut, houses cleaned, nothing. Me maybe on the way to being Jetsons but we're not there yet. So what do they do in the meantime? Absolutely ignorant what they are doing
Someone has to work on lowering those HOA’s fees or get rid of it all together. That is a forever expense even she you finish paying your house. Who is putting that money in their pocket?. I really don’t see the necessity of having a gym and all the amenities they offer, there are plenty of gymnasium every where for a lot of less expensive than paying for associations. Think about it please.
Looking at the climate, the mosquitoes, the insects, the terrible humidity, the constant feeling of lethargy because you are breathing water (70% humidity levels) and start walking weird because the humidity starts getting through your body, muscles and bones + house prices that do not reflect the bad side effects of living in Florida (specially South Florida, where humidity is the worst) it is not worth it.
The reason people don’t like brick houses in Florida is they cost more and the builder has to frame the house before applying the exterior bricks therefore less profit. Also laying bricks requires a skill set. The Guatemalans we import to build the homes can’t lay the small bricks straight. Wood is easier to work with and is cheaper. Block is just big bricks and a lot less of them and because of their larger size more profitable for builders. Also, the Guatemalan block layers have a platform they can fit a level on which avoids the small brick problems.
@@RyanScribner "Brick" homes have a brick veneer over wood framed walls. The walls of block homes are made of concrete block with reinforcing steel rebar. Add 130mph impact resistant doors and windows and that's where you want to be in a hurricane!
@@RyanScribner Concrete block or cinderblock as we call it reinforced with rebar if I was to get another house or build one it would be concrete block if it was To stay in Florida Which is highly unlikely
I hope people who would think of moving into Florida, would change their minds. There’s lots of good places like the Carolinas and Texas. My poor half-destroyed Florida. “They’ve paved Paradise and put up a parking lot.” Joni Mitchell sure had it right. When I was raising a family here in SE Florida in the 1980s, it really was a paradise. Too many damned people have moved here and have destroyed my home. We bought way out in the lush green western West Palm Beach. Now builders are putting up million dollar homes with zero lot lines and blissfully cutting down the beautiful forests and killing all the critters who called it home. You see them dead on the roads. They have brought New York to Florida. I am happy when I see how poorly that is turning out for them.
Don’t forget that over 50 percent of all sales since 2021 are scumbag flippers and investors. Some PBC neighborhoods have been completely destroyed and are now empty flips or empty rentals just waiting for the next sucker. The real values aren’t even half of the new fake, fraud driven asking prices.
Why don’t YOU go up to the Carolinas or Texas? People that move to “YOUR” home are rich and resourceful and your happiness for things to work out POORLY for them will ironically only make you poor. Florida was a shiette hole until resourceful people moved there and built it to the amazing place it is today. You’re welcome.
There are a lot of people around the country that canceled their homeowners insurance. It’s a tough decision especially in states that have extreme weather, god bless those people! 1:31

With the pending surge of special assessments in condos, many owners will be forced to sell at fire sale prices. Deferred maintenance makes future inflation adjusted work so much more expensive especially as contractors are inundated with work. The next millionaire class will be your local plumbers and electricians. Condo owners will be underwater and begging buyers to take them off the hook.
@@RyanScribner looking forward to it, I would highlight this comment next video, I’m betting condos will face a nice correction over the next 6 months. Those people who bought them at the highs of 2021-2022 will begin to capitulate going into next year IMO.
The development from the builders moves ground and trees. What happens is that streets and homes end up with water everywhere, more than likely in your home😢
Please do not use the word "crash". The inventory surge does not necessarily translate into a cheap price. I live in Tampa, and do not see any "crash". Houses in good neighborhoods in Hillsborough, Pasco, or Pinneas counties are still expensive.
Do Port St Lucie, FL!! There are a lot of new construction homes being built by big builders (like Mattamy Homes, Lennar, Holiday Builders, Ryan) that are pricing out resellers and smaller new construction builders.
I live in Florida very near the highest elevation in the state my house is about 230ft above sea level. I think the insurance rate increases are valid near the coast and for flood prone areas. Lots of older Florida homes are old and need to be Hurricane/wind updated anyway.
For sure, here in Sarasota county prices have declined slightly but if you want to have a yard with even a quarter acre of land, prices are still completely out of wack
One of the basic tenets of homeownership is having a roof over your head, or place to live. So to say it is terrible that in 18 years a coastal home has only increased 16% completely disregards the fact that it has provided SHELTER to a family during that time and they didnt lose their money to a landlord via rent but got their capital back PLUS 16% appreciation. Amd while the appreciationmay not be comparable to other markets, it may be beteer than pissing away $400k in rent and getting nothing at the end. Amd yes,nyoumdo habe to oay taxes and maintenance and insurance
House prices in Florida have doubled in 4 years and in my area they’re still going up. I’ve been saving up for 12 years and I was almost there in 2019 but 2020 onward really messed it up for me. And with rising taxes and insurance I’d probably have to pay cash to afford it long term. In my area the prices just aren’t coming down. There’s a few dumps where they’ve done some price cuts but they’re just not worth buying and the nice homes still sell at asking. Probably will have to move to another state where I have no family and don’t know anyone if I ever want to own anything.
Nope. I'm directly on the gulf and had no problem finding insurance for way less than half what you said for my home worth around 800k. I'll pay 10k a year for insurance to watch dolphin, manatee play in my backyard.
The government could easily solve this by investing in infrastructure. Holland actually expanded its landmass but we are being shoved out of the state. It is absurd.
What about looking at the entire price history of the presented house. Like the house sold for $475k was sold in for $217k in 2003 and for $249k - in 2016. Plus, the property was previously resisted during the other sales as well. Just pause the video and make a screen, or research it. The house doubled in price since the last sale, whereas its increase was only $32k from 2003 to 2016. It’s called cherry picking ..
Hello from.shanghai you americans have been reporting for 3years housing market in china is crashing and thats was throughtout the last three years, in fact you are talking about yourselves... problems is we chinese do not hate americans ,why xant we live peafefully togother ?
The problem is New York. That's the standard for rent amd pricing Rich people all over the world go to New York to live rich people all over the world. Are not going to some random place in America to live? For the rent and housing market to be so high, it's not sustainable and places other than ny And not sustainable there And big banks and institutional investments, owning half of the homes in america
How about Lady Lake and specifically Green Key Village? I have been looking there and trying to understand the development. There are homes over 10 years old and new construction in the same small development with resales that seem to be sitting on the market.
I don't understand why at 14:42 you have called $100,000 price cut "insane". There is nothing insane about that price cut. In fact it is PATHETIC. Let's call it what it is. Property in this case sold for $247,000 in 2001 which means THAT IS WHAT ITS WORTH. Even if you do a 3% appreciation curve, it would place this OLD house at $487,500 which is in itself RIDICULOUS because it should not cost that much. Morons that own the house listed it for $679,000 which is $191,500 OVERVALUED. I don't know where you got "they were panicking". Nobody was panicking. They literally sold the house for $30,000 than what it was actually "WORTH". If you wanted to see "panicking"... allow me to present you exhibit A. If that house was listed for $515,000 with anticipation of selling for $487,500 and they had to cut it down to $365,000.... now THAT is panicking. Nobody panics when owners invent a fake price on an overpriced home and it sells for above its true cost. These people basically bought the darn thing for $247,000 and sold it for $515,000... cashed out equity out the wazoo and walked away with 100%+ profit. It would be prudent on your part to put some ahem... some brakes on calling things what they are not. Lowering fake price and doing cuts on fake price is hardly panic inducing.
I had this thought a while ago, and it may be coming to fruition There may come a time when no one can afford insurance… Which means they will not be able to get a mortgage which means people will not need to go into debt for their home! This might be a good thing for many. People will not be at risk of losing their home to BANK .
Yikes!! I would have to agree, especially in lower income areas - keep in mind Florida has the 2nd highest Credit Card delinquency rate out of the entire country too
Just came across your channel. Very informative, thanks! Please consider doing some videos all along the Gulf for people wanting to live near the ocean. I’m wondering how insurance is affecting those housing markets.
@@RyanScribner That was going to be my next step to go and look at your Playlist. If it’s anything like my first experience I won’t be disappointed. All the best…
Florida has an average of 50 to 100 ft above sea level. People move here and complain about flooding...DUH! Know where you live. The price of houses has increased therefore it cost more to replace them when destroyed by weather, fire and etc so INS goes up. When the cost of the property increases so do the taxes. I'm tired of people complaining about the costs of home ownership in our state. Don't like flooding, move to a state with mountains and less flooding. Don't like storms, don't live near the oceans. If housing wasn't in such demand to live near water, housing costs wouldn't be so high, hence tax and insurance costs.
How can anyone say a 25 to 30% price cut is substantial when the houses are massively overpriced. 50 to 60 % would be getting the prices back to reasonable.
To bad panic sellers don’t upset the county appraiser. The local government refers to the low value sale as an aberration and pays no particular attention to it. The county tax appraiser just increases the taxes on the new owner and welcomes him to the county.
Gonna start keeping an open mind and possibly make some offers, IF we like the place a lot. We will lowball. If it doesn’t work out no biggy. We had places we looked at and said nope and the realtors were pestering us to consider again, nah we decided against the properties. 😅. They got less, those who sold
Oh please! He's acting as if weather related events aren't happening nation wide. What's happening in Florida was long anticipated with global warming. But the real issue here are these real estate agents bugging out on their losses. The fact inventory is high which makes their profits low. And real estate investors be it individuals or firms also loosing. Overall shouldn't this be about buyers being able to buy without loosing their shirts? But these guys all these UA-camrs are crying about their losses when the making of real estate investing into a modern casino event is what plunged the nation into financial peril. And here we are once again rolling the dice. Having not learned a thing, chasing the money all the while pulling out the very rug from beneath our feet.
those home listing sales are irrelevant without knwoing the comps. anyone can ask stupid prices, but with you not listing recent comps, you dont show your viewers the recent market prices of the neighborhood to compare.
There are quite a few with damage from Ian, which has not been repaired. The banks as a result are becoming hesitant to lend. the result is good for the cash buyer who has money to abuse for a second home.
Born here in '71, went thru my first cane in '79. Nothing new but they are getting stronger. Thankfully forecasting and construction has gotten better. However insurance is insane because of it. People are getting priced out.
Travelers Insurance recently reported record profits. TRV stock price is on a steady 3 month downtrend, but still up for the year. Looks like Wall Street is expecting slow moving train wreck - I'm betting TRV will completely exit FLA
In 1945 there was 12 million shortage of houses. William Levitt developed small homes to meet the problem. We are headed for a repeat of Levittown type houses. Vert small by todays standards.
I am seriously contemplating buying a house in either lakeland, or Srping hill area. I have rented my whole life, and have 0 chance of ever owning anything on Long Island. Am I crazy should I wait for the market to pull back or just go for it? And ps I am not bringing NY bad politics with me. Lol
I personally think and hope that prices will decline. However keep in mind that timing the housing market is like trying to time the stock market, it's a game of chance
@@timslater566 thanks for input, rethinking maybe its better to rent at first so I can get acclimated and have a better assessment while down there. Also maybe get a pull back in property valuations
You are confusing things. As you said, Citizens is an insurer "of last resort", but then you complain that Citizens is depopulating policyholders who have been offered alternative policies from other insurers. If another insurer will provide coverage, Citizens isn't by definition the "insurer of last resort".
What you refer to as the historical average looks like the average of the short span of years from 2017 to 2024. 2021 and 2022 have a significant impact on the average being low when you look at such a short period and will make the 2024 number look like it is much higher than the average. If you just compare it to the years before the pandemic the numbers are only slightly higher.

This is what's happening: you do NOT own what you own. You still have to pay rent disguised as insurance, tax, HOA etc.
How's the real estate market for buyers in Bradenton and Cape Coral FL?
100% agree with you. We never truly own our homes, even after we payoff our mortgages.

Only if you choose HOA. Otherwise you don't own till your mortgage is paid in full. A mortgage was once considered a disgrace.

Property tax is BS. Should be one time at purchase. Just like buying a car.....
In CT we pay property tax on cars every year after purchase. Many states do this. FL is a hold-out. It will come too. Just wait.
haha just like 35% tax on every pay check is bullshit. It is what it is, government owns you
And who should pay for the police that defends your house? And for repairing the road in front of your house. And the plumbing.

Florida is full.
With the pending surge of special assessments in condos, many owners will be forced to sell at fire sale prices. Deferred maintenance makes future inflation adjusted work so much more expensive especially as contractors are inundated with work. The next millionaire class will be your local plumbers and electricians. Condo owners will be underwater and begging buyers to take them off the hook.
Very true, I will be doing a video specifically about the condo crisis in FL soon
@@RyanScribner looking forward to it, I would highlight this comment next video, I’m betting condos will face a nice correction over the next 6 months. Those people who bought them at the highs of 2021-2022 will begin to capitulate going into next year IMO.
The development from the builders moves ground and trees. What happens is that streets and homes end up with water everywhere, more than likely in your home😢
Polk county FL. Please
I'd be interested in seeing you do a video with some more in-depth information about my area Lakeland Florida Polk County
Really great analysis…. Thank you and keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Please do not use the word "crash". The inventory surge does not necessarily translate into a cheap price. I live in Tampa, and do not see any "crash". Houses in good neighborhoods in Hillsborough, Pasco, or Pinneas counties are still expensive.
Do Port St Lucie, FL!! There are a lot of new construction homes being built by big builders (like Mattamy Homes, Lennar, Holiday Builders, Ryan) that are pricing out resellers and smaller new construction builders.
Great suggestion, thank you!
Buddy Florida is fine lol he’s nitpicking very specific cases to boost his point. Everyone I know is fine buddy relax
I live in Florida very near the highest elevation in the state my house is about 230ft above sea level. I think the insurance rate increases are valid near the coast and for flood prone areas. Lots of older Florida homes are old and need to be Hurricane/wind updated anyway.
Smart - what area of Florida? Have you run into any insurance problems?
@@RyanScribnerhe’s most likely talking about Clermont FL near Orlando
My home was built in 2019 and I am in NW Florida 40 miles north of Destin. I pay $1400 a year through progressive.
@@backcountryFLcyclistI'm interested. Where exactly? How are the schools?
@@backcountryFLcyclist Crestview area?
Crash faster! I need to buy a house in the next 2 mos, in Pinellas, manatee, or south hillsborough county 🤞🏽🤞🏽
The only homes coming on the market in Florida are way out of reach of most of us, affordable housing is still not available...
Do not buy a condo in Fl. not even as a gift.
The prices are still high ,
For sure, here in Sarasota county prices have declined slightly but if you want to have a yard with even a quarter acre of land, prices are still completely out of wack
Then make more money we’re not selling for less just for you
One of the basic tenets of homeownership is having a roof over your head, or place to live. So to say it is terrible that in 18 years a coastal home has only increased 16% completely disregards the fact that it has provided SHELTER to a family during that time and they didnt lose their money to a landlord via rent but got their capital back PLUS 16% appreciation. Amd while the appreciationmay not be comparable to other markets, it may be beteer than pissing away $400k in rent and getting nothing at the end. Amd yes,nyoumdo habe to oay taxes and maintenance and insurance
Do a segment on the Keys please. Marathon
Great suggestion, thanks!
House prices in Florida have doubled in 4 years and in my area they’re still going up. I’ve been saving up for 12 years and I was almost there in 2019 but 2020 onward really messed it up for me.
And with rising taxes and insurance I’d probably have to pay cash to afford it long term.
In my area the prices just aren’t coming down. There’s a few dumps where they’ve done some price cuts but they’re just not worth buying and the nice homes still sell at asking.
Probably will have to move to another state where I have no family and don’t know anyone if I ever want to own anything.
So sorry to hear that do loose hope .
Any property near the coast is going to have difficulty getting Insurance. Expect to pay around $20,000 A year for it to be insured.
Wild!!! The monthly homeowners insurance cost is almost as high as a total mortgage payment in other parts of the country
Nope. I'm directly on the gulf and had no problem finding insurance for way less than half what you said for my home worth around 800k. I'll pay 10k a year for insurance to watch dolphin, manatee play in my backyard.
Thank you for the update definitely appreciated the videos you are making 😊
Thanks for letting me know! I will keep making them 👍
Polk county, Lakeland please
You’re desperate for views huh
Mismanaged red state gone to duh gators...sad😢
Florida is a nightmare now. If the storms continue we will get more than 15%
And there's always the potential for an Assessment if there is significant damage... 😳
The government could easily solve this by investing in infrastructure. Holland actually expanded its landmass but we are being shoved out of the state. It is absurd.
What about looking at the entire price history of the presented house. Like the house sold for $475k was sold in for $217k in 2003 and for $249k - in 2016. Plus, the property was previously resisted during the other sales as well. Just pause the video and make a screen, or research it. The house doubled in price since the last sale, whereas its increase was only $32k from 2003 to 2016.
It’s called cherry picking ..
Lots of inventory on the gulf coast because it's one big swamp! Nobody wants to live on the dirty gulf.
Hello from.shanghai you americans have been reporting for 3years housing market in china is crashing and thats was throughtout the last three years, in fact you are talking about yourselves... problems is we chinese do not hate americans ,why xant we live peafefully togother ?
The problem is New York. That's the standard for rent amd pricing Rich people all over the world go to New York to live rich people all over the world. Are not going to some random place in America to live?
For the rent and housing market to be so high, it's not sustainable and places other than ny And not sustainable there And big banks and institutional investments, owning half of the homes in america
How about Lady Lake and specifically Green Key Village? I have been looking there and trying to understand the development. There are homes over 10 years old and new construction in the same small development with resales that seem to be sitting on the market.
What about winter haven, lakeland area
West palm beach is still doing Great. 😊
Side note, you have a great voice for radio and movies etc..but I like your style too! Keep it up!
Hey thank you very much!
It’s crazy you’re more than 3/4th of the way to 1m subs. Well deserved. I remember the white board days!
You look like Jack Dorsey
It's time to consider moving to another country.
Haha, what one do you have in mind?
Why “haha”?
My wife and I have a backup plan of moving to NZ. Seems far enough away and very pretty
@@Bob-w2b8jdo you think the locals want foreigners? Good luck
Unbelievably New Zealand has the same problems. They can’t afford a house either.
Florida will learn lol. Greedy ass insurance companies ,and criminal overpricing and hoa lmaooooo
I don't understand why at 14:42 you have called $100,000 price cut "insane". There is nothing insane about that price cut. In fact it is PATHETIC. Let's call it what it is. Property in this case sold for $247,000 in 2001 which means THAT IS WHAT ITS WORTH. Even if you do a 3% appreciation curve, it would place this OLD house at $487,500 which is in itself RIDICULOUS because it should not cost that much. Morons that own the house listed it for $679,000 which is $191,500 OVERVALUED. I don't know where you got "they were panicking". Nobody was panicking. They literally sold the house for $30,000 than what it was actually "WORTH". If you wanted to see "panicking"... allow me to present you exhibit A. If that house was listed for $515,000 with anticipation of selling for $487,500 and they had to cut it down to $365,000.... now THAT is panicking. Nobody panics when owners invent a fake price on an overpriced home and it sells for above its true cost. These people basically bought the darn thing for $247,000 and sold it for $515,000... cashed out equity out the wazoo and walked away with 100%+ profit. It would be prudent on your part to put some ahem... some brakes on calling things what they are not. Lowering fake price and doing cuts on fake price is hardly panic inducing.

Several invalid assumptions. Be careful what you watch online. He's looking for subscribers. Panic video.
I had this thought a while ago, and it may be coming to fruition
There may come a time when no one can afford insurance… Which means they will not be able to get a mortgage which means people will not need to go into debt for their home! This might be a good thing for many. People will not be at risk of losing their home to BANK .
Yikes!! I would have to agree, especially in lower income areas - keep in mind Florida has the 2nd highest Credit Card delinquency rate out of the entire country too
I live in the SW Volusia County area (Debary, Orange City, Deland) and homes here are still selling quickly and often above asking.
Just came across your channel. Very informative, thanks! Please consider doing some videos all along the Gulf for people wanting to live near the ocean. I’m wondering how insurance is affecting those housing markets.
Thanks for tuning in and for the suggestion! We actually covered a lot of those areas in my last video here: ua-cam.com/video/4nOW2aM8Q4k/v-deo.html
@@RyanScribner
That was going to be my next step to go and look at your Playlist. If it’s anything like my first experience I won’t be disappointed. All the best…
Florida has an average of 50 to 100 ft above sea level. People move here and complain about flooding...DUH! Know where you live. The price of houses has increased therefore it cost more to replace them when destroyed by weather, fire and etc so INS goes up. When the cost of the property increases so do the taxes. I'm tired of people complaining about the costs of home ownership in our state. Don't like flooding, move to a state with mountains and less flooding. Don't like storms, don't live near the oceans. If housing wasn't in such demand to live near water, housing costs wouldn't be so high, hence tax and insurance costs.
How can anyone say a 25 to 30% price cut is substantial when the houses are massively overpriced. 50 to 60 % would be getting the prices back to reasonable.
Florida homes are on the tip of crashing. Inventory has been piling up, all it takes is a few panic sellers, and it starts.
To bad panic sellers don’t upset the county appraiser. The local government refers to the low value sale as an aberration and pays no particular attention to it. The county tax appraiser just increases the taxes on the new owner and welcomes him to the county.
Great info - thanks for sharing this!
Gonna start keeping an open mind and possibly make some offers, IF we like the place a lot. We will lowball. If it doesn’t work out no biggy. We had places we looked at and said nope and the realtors were pestering us to consider again, nah we decided against the properties. 😅. They got less, those who sold
Oh please! He's acting as if weather related events aren't happening nation wide. What's happening in Florida was long anticipated with global warming. But the real issue here are these real estate agents bugging out on their losses. The fact inventory is high which makes their profits low. And real estate investors be it individuals or firms also loosing. Overall shouldn't this be about buyers being able to buy without loosing their shirts? But these guys all these UA-camrs are crying about their losses when the making of real estate investing into a modern casino event is what plunged the nation into financial peril. And here we are once again rolling the dice. Having not learned a thing, chasing the money all the while pulling out the very rug from beneath our feet.
I'd be interested in a similar assessment with Jacksonville and St. Johns County area. Thanks.
Ive been renting at a bargain compared to NYC and am waiting for the crash while saving and investing quietly 🎉🎉🎉
those home listing sales are irrelevant without knwoing the comps. anyone can ask stupid prices, but with you not listing recent comps, you dont show your viewers the recent market prices of the neighborhood to compare.
Greedy seller. It's a dump. Never updated or painted?
Nice place to visit but I wouldn’t want to live there.
A lot of people think living in Florida is a permanent vacation, definitely not!
The reason why all this rain is because they keep seeding our skies with the airplanes
Prices are way too high don't complain about California Florida is not much better
There are quite a few with damage from Ian, which has not been repaired. The banks as a result are becoming hesitant to lend. the result is good for the cash buyer who has money to abuse for a second home.
ck out Highlands county...Sebring pls..
Rain? lol, that’s nothing. Rain for us locals is a blessing as long as we don’t get a category four or five hurricane.
I would like to move to Lakeland a are close to Tampa could you please this area.thank
Thanks for the video you had mentioned if we could request a certain area could you do specifically Palm Beach County?
Thanks for tuning in, I appreciate the suggestion!
Hey Check Out Weston Florida!!
How can anyone retired afford these places with such high taxes ?
Palm beach
Since when is having affordable houses a disaster?
The “Hurricane” state
-2004 to Present time
Haha, good one! Maybe they will change the Florida Plates to say that 🤣
Born here in '71, went thru my first cane in '79. Nothing new but they are getting stronger. Thankfully forecasting and construction has gotten better. However insurance is insane because of it. People are getting priced out.
Thank God there is no climate change.
Could you do Ocala FL
I have lived here for many many years nothing new about these weather events
What area?
There has always been a hurricane season every year, that's the nature of living in the sub tropics near water
It's called the rainy season nimrod.
Florida only for the 10 percent letter you received from DeSantis tells you DEPOPULATION 😂
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha i saw this coming 25 years ago
Travelers Insurance recently reported record profits. TRV stock price is on a steady 3 month downtrend, but still up for the year. Looks like Wall Street is expecting slow moving train wreck - I'm betting TRV will completely exit FLA
In 1945 there was 12 million shortage of houses. William Levitt developed small homes to meet the problem. We are headed for a repeat of Levittown type houses. Vert small by todays standards.
I am seriously contemplating buying a house in either lakeland, or Srping hill area. I have rented my whole life, and have 0 chance of ever owning anything on Long Island. Am I crazy should I wait for the market to pull back or just go for it? And ps I am not bringing NY bad politics with me. Lol
Buy with zero down, so if the market nosedives the bank will eat the loss
I personally think and hope that prices will decline. However keep in mind that timing the housing market is like trying to time the stock market, it's a game of chance
@@Bob-w2b8j thanks fpr feed back
I’d steer clear of Spring Hill. It’s “Sinkhole City”.
@@timslater566 thanks for input, rethinking maybe its better to rent at first so I can get acclimated and have a better assessment while down there. Also maybe get a pull back in property valuations
Hang in there, it will drop even more.
I wish Windermere/Winter-Garden would see a bit of a drop.... they put extremely high prices on these homes and they sell🤦♀️
You are confusing things. As you said, Citizens is an insurer "of last resort", but then you complain that Citizens is depopulating policyholders who have been offered alternative policies from other insurers. If another insurer will provide coverage, Citizens isn't by definition the "insurer of last resort".
What you refer to as the historical average looks like the average of the short span of years from 2017 to 2024.
2021 and 2022 have a significant impact on the average being low when you look at such a short period and will make the 2024 number look like it is much higher than the average.
If you just compare it to the years before the pandemic the numbers are only slightly higher.
Yep inventory on the Space Coast is highest it’s been in a decade. Good news is 18 months from now prices will be affordable!! Always a silver liner.
