It looks like people like freedom and not lockdowns and mandates. Miami Now Least Affordable Housing Market In U.S. https://miami.cbslocal.com/2022/02/17/miami-now-least-affordable-housing-market-in-u-s/ MIAMI (CBSMiami) – If you’ve forgotten what a “for sale” sign looks like, you’re not alone. There are fewer and fewer around Miami “You drive around, you don’t see many for sale signs, don’t see anything,” says Belinda Sime, owner of Sime Realty. It’s all part of the Magic City’s red-hot housing market where homes disappear before realtors can put signs out front. “It’s like literally crazy right now,” said Sime, a 21-year veteran of the Miami real estate market. We have so many people coming here and we don’t have any supply,” explained Sime. Miami is now officially the most expensive housing market in the country, according to RealtyHop, surpassing New York as many of its residents escaped to the Sunshine State during the pandemic. “Miami is open and is not as strict as some of the other states, (it’s) also because we don’t have state income tax,” added Sime.
No income tax and good weather was there before DeSantis.So was Florida being one of the states people moved to the most.
Well at least -- thanks to DeSantis -- there are now an additional 69,000 open residences available in Florida.
