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. The Insurance Information Institute reports a 42% increase in insurance rates last year alone, placing the average insurance cost for Floridian homeowners at $6,000, in stark contrast to the national average of $1,700. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Remote Work Could Cost Boston $1 Billion in Taxes READ MORE Turks pile into the dollar, gold and stocks as 67% inflation savages ‘worthless lira’ READ MORE The Fight Against Counterfeit Dollars: What You Need toKnow READ MORE Gold and Bitcoin: Vital Challengers to Fiat Currencies READ MORE Fed’s Waller still sees ‘no rush’ to cut rates amid sticky inflation data READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
