  1.  @GardenerEarthGuy ❤Gov. Ron DeSantis, and he's not wealthy.

  2. I almost bought a condo for investment purposes here in FL when the 2008 housing crash decimated the condo prices particularly hard. They were decent, $35,000-45,000, and would have been bargains except for the uncontrollable HOAs and maintenance costs. I decided not to.

  3.  @Resmith18SR Only the Marxist states, thank God.

  4. ESG has been outlawed in FL, at least as it applies to the state's investments in pension funds and such.

  5.  @rochellet1333  No.

  6. Buyers of investment property shouldknow before theybuy that property tax assessment (of non-homesteaded property) can go up as much as 10% per year, as per FL statutes.

  7.  @FamousWolfe  That is exactly what I'm doing as of this year. I figure I had a high deductible anyway, and since nothing happened to my house in 34 years, no hurricane/fire/catastrophic ground collapse/flood, etc. No claims ever made in 34 years, so how likely is this house to actually USE insurance in the next 15 years or so? Probably not very likely.

  8. Nope, FL Statutes limit homesteaded property to yearly increases of a maximum 3%. I'm in FL, and my proposed property taxes might actually go down, if proposed budget change isn't adopted.

  9.  @judymckee5992  Rent control is blatantly unconstitutional, unless you're referring to Section 8, which is voluntary for landlords.

  10. Wrong.

  11. I know. But some people have IQs that equal their shoe size these days.

  12. To who?!

  13. Commie Kamala's tyrannical money and increased tax grabs are much worse than anything Trump is proposing!

  14. Great idea! But City Commissioners, most of who are Democrats, are the ones responsible for deciding city budgets in Miami (and my FL city, too, unfortunately.)

  15.  @oneeleven9832  That stinks, who does the king think he is, lol.

  16. Read the FL Statutes Landlord Tenant Act. Also, I posted a new law entitled "Removal of Unknown Parties in Posession", a summons that can be used to put the squatters on notice of legal action. Effective 7/1/23. But yes, burglars can be removed by police immediately, but apparently not squatters.

  17. That's for sure. My daughter and her family live in L. A. and taxes are confiscatory.
    2
  18. My daughter and her family live in CA, and I have a feeling this is the Marxist scam being pushed there where you aren't actually given "free downpayment money", because you essentially become a co-owner of the house with the government. (No thanks!)
    2
  19. Yeah, 2025 will be when condo prices crash, if not before. I'd be selling NOW, for sure.
    2
  20. Well, I do hope you worked for the IRS. (Just kidding, good luck.)
    2
  21. Once again, proof that the borrower is slave to the lender. Pay cash or do not buy.
    2
  22. Anyone in a FL condo, especially if it's 40 years old, should be selling and running right now...before it's too late.
    2
  23. I'll look into that company for my house that I dropped my homeowners on. Sounds like a great idea.

  24. Michael, mobile homes only have titles like automobiles, not deeds, and how could anyone live in a mobile home for 30 years never paying property tax, yet thinking they owned the land under it?!? LOL. (People were SMARTER, not dumber, before the internet!)

  25. I need to rehab my 1960 house, but I have to prioritize, due to the high cost. 😢

  26.  @charmingbeautytv4712 Who wants to own property inthe Dominican Republic?!

  27.  @Skepticismistheway Thailand doesn't allow foreigners to own property there.

  28. I'm in N. FL, house located on 2 in-city blocks, (so homestead exemption was only on one) and my property taxes were "only" $4100 for a 2100+ sq. ft. house.
    2
  29. Me, too! Self-insurance avoids the stress and anxiety, and when and if something happens, we won't be having to wait around for insurance to pay out ( or not.)

  30. Oh, wake up. Trump is 100% Controlled Oppisition RINO! Not telling us anything we didn't know. Ron DeSantis, unlike Trump, is actually DOING something about outlawing CBDCs in FL.

  31.  @Floridawoodsbanshee  Just don't read any of his Truth Social 3am incoherent and unhinged madman rants.
    2
  32. What? FL never has or will allowed squatters! They go directly to jail! And landlords have always had a procedure to follow to get deadbeat or destructive tenants out...and still do!

  33. Homeowners' property IS assessed every year, in Jan. But because FL law states that homesteaded property can increase in assessed value a max. of 3% per year, and because ofthe Save Our Homes Amendment that also limits property tax increases for homesteaded property, as well as the homestead exemption itself, the longer you live in a homesteaded property, the more you benefit. (Of course, all assessments take a huge jump in the first Jan. after you purchase a house.)

  34. Wrong. FL governor Ron DeSantis knows EXACTLY how to stop wasting taxpayers money, starting with getting the US out of the UN! We are the largest funders of the UN!

  35. FHA loans are a rip-off for the borrowers, and many sellers also won't sell to someone needing a FHA loan due to the long time they require to close, and other reasons.

  36. Are you on or near the beach?

  37. They have no jobs and don't want any.

  38. Michael, a few years ago my homeowners/auto insurance agent retired and a younger one took her place. One of the first things she said to me was, "don't ever make a claim, because we'll drop you if you do!" And she was dead serious. I would state the company, but I still have my rental property insured with them, so I better not.
    2
  39. This is exactly what should be happening!
    2
  40. It can only get worse if you allow it. At the rates they're charging, self-insuring becomes apotentially reasonable idea, if you've been in the same house for decades (like me) and never had any flooding or hurricane damage.

  41. What you said is true of S. FL. Not so much N. FL. Except for the heat.However, I once lived in Macon, GA, and that place was hotter than the hottest day in FL!

  42. He's paying more than that!
    2
  43. Nope, FL isn't Commiefornia. Landlords aren't in business to subsidize renters, with all due respect.
    2
  44. yes
    2
  45. Yes, my daughter's car was demolished by an illegal alien with no driver's license or insurance. She lives in L.A. and was SOL.

  46. In FL, most agents are transaction-only salespeople. And that's in the contract. They represent no one. (It is done apparently to avoid lawsuits.)
    2
  47.  @PaulTech-Reviews Are there still any big corporations left in CA?!
    2
  48. Mine in N. FL went from $1,200 in 2022 to about $3300 in 2023, if I hadn't dropped my insurance, that is!

  49. You are describing a balloon mortgage here. They were common back in the '80s, when conventional mortgage rates were sky-high, and many people were unable to refinance when the time came. They lost their houses as a result. Balloon mortgages are bad news.

  50. Why would you ever buy in a condo? It's an invitation to problems. And most conservative red states have lower property taxes than those Marxist blue ones.
