Florida Real Estate Falls As Homebuyers Deterred by Higher Insurance Costs Home prices in Florida’s southwest coast are dropping, primarily driven by the steep rise in home insurance costs. This insurance crisis has led to a surge in inventory as potential buyers, particularly those looking to purchase winter homes, are deterred by the skyrocketing premiums.
