Sold our NW Florida vacation home in 2022. HOI Premiums became ridiculous high. Same apllies for property taxes. Much Too much traffic on HWY 98. Too many tourists on the Emerald Coast beaches year round. Besides, unreal humidity and heat from June to October is hard to stand for elder folks. Loved the coastal vibes and had a blast of party times, laid back people, friendly and welcoming
If you’re thinking about buying a home in Florida in 2026, this guide will help you avoid overpaying, avoid unstable markets, and avoid cities most likely to lose value in the next 12–24 months.
Stay informed. Protect your investment. Know which Florida cities to avoid before prices fall even further.
LMFAO it\n Isn't normal for people who worked at some, you know, job in the Northwest and moved to Florida? And now think they are real estate tycoons who deserve a 30% increase in the price of their house, and all of every one of them has a realtor's license that they get in the mail these days, absolutely lunacy, that people think that they're entitled to their houses. Going up in value 20% or 10% per year get real. People don't know nothing about real estate or days on the market transit.It's just all a bunch of nonsense.The house is worth what someone will pay for it period you live in a s*** that'll get hit by a hurricane , it's still a s*** hit by a hurricane workless , get over it

@lsegluv8574Let’s not forgot that even if you pay that10k a year in insurance, they do everything in the world to not pay full price for damages in the event of natural disaster. Signed, a two time natural disaster customer. 😒
@SassyEducated1Has to have a housing crash it is cyclical...prices everywhere are way out of anything anyone could have imagined. Salaries dont match cost of living anywhere. Home prices are a joke so dont be a sucker and pay absorbent prices as taxes will match your home cost.

Never take advice from fear mongering. IF they Port "Street" Lucie, you know the do not know what they are talking about or it is some that does not want their voice and is using AI to drive prices down and scoop up houses.
@localbusinesssearch4995And yet, insurance companies continue to insure and construction continues storm after storm after storm whether through the wealthy or taxpayers. Do you see the problem ?
@DonaldElder-g1mNot port street lucie
@PatiCozzan-i1xPort staint lucie
@PatiCozzan-i1xIt all started with dopey President Carter ruining Southeast Florida
@marilyn295Port Street Louis??
@Mikeabq1Bought my home in Delray Beach and the insurance has gone from 2400 to 6800, not to speak about the high insurance cost it’s ridiculous! It’s hard to find insurance companies that will cover you and the prices are very high
@jrich7416Well that was up there with my top 10 most depressing videos I've ever seen in my life! I give it an 8 out of 10! I would correct one thing however, the narrator mentions that ocean levels have risen. I don't think so. In order to raise the ocean levels that means it has to raise worldwide! That ain't going to happen! If anything, the land may sink with all the underground caverns and waterways, similar to how the sinkholes are formed but I can assure you that the oceans are not rising, however if you're saying there's a 5-in difference, the end result is the same.
@M3231-s3vIt’s called Port Saint Lucie. Thank you for this very informative video
@cubans4life23Warm weather year round is NOT good. It’s miserable. Values need a 50% drop.
@rodcoulter997So, this is a "chicken Little" global warming screech! Sea leve Up a foot? Really now!
@williammarriott6131I love how detailed your vidoes are
@texanprepper-b5eSimple. Don't buy in these places. Sinkholes and hurricanes are big problems.
@TOM89999I've lived on the west coast of Florida since 1979 Sarasota Bradenton Venice Northport area. Homes have gotten expensive since the pandemic but this guy is all doom and gloom with the sinkholes in the rain and the flooding. We live near an ocean and a gulf. THERE IS WATER ALL AROUND US PEOPLE! IF YOU BUY IN FLORIDA YOU CAN EXPECT TO GET FLOODED OR AT LEAST HAVE FLOODING AFTER A MAJOR STORM. THAT IS A FACT.
The water recedes in a day The power is restored within 2 days typically unless you are super hard hit. This guy is all doom and gloom however, I wish less people would move here I wish more people would move away from here. They have ruined Florida in the last 25 to 30 years with over development! People that have lived here do not like the newcomers. Our state our waters have been decimated! Used to have beautiful fish right on the edge of the water that is gone. Thanks to overpopulation! Coyotes walk down the middle of the street at night because we have decimated their habitats. So yes we have flooding, hurricanes, and weird weather sometimes. But Florida is a great place to live and I love it here I would never leave. Oh btw I rent and the rents are finally dropping!
DO YOUR HOMEWORK DO NOT MAKE ANY PLANS TO LIVE HERE UNLESS YOUR SUPPER RICH
@DJPartyFeetThe entire FL will CRASH (with the exception of Miami), the houses are being accepted at 150k left and right all over (as it should). insurance is 7300/yr. Car insurance 400+
