What mood are you in today?

Hint! It's allowed through most of Dunedin too!

Sadly, 100% true!

Peaceful Sunday morning…

Did you know that today is actually National Pool Opening Day? In Florida, they just stay open year round!

Homeowner's insurance cost increases have been on almost everyone's minds lately. If you wonder what I'm doing in Tallahassee and Orlando working with legislators and lobbying for, this is a prime example of what we as REALTOR's are working to accomplish to help our homeowners and renters. There's definitely more work to do, but it finally looks like there are steps in the right direction.

"Pointing to changes made by state lawmakers, Florida Peninsula Insurance Co. on Thursday announced a 2% average reduction in property insurance rates for homeowners. The Boca Raton-based insurer said the reduction will take effect July 15 for new customers and Aug. 1 for customers renewing coverage.
Florida lawmakers during the past two years made a series of changes to try to bolster the property insurance market as carriers dropped customers and increased rates because of financial problems. The problems also caused the state’s Citizens Property Insurance Corp. to balloon to become the largest insurer in Florida."

Property Insurer to Trim Rates Clint Strauch, president of Florida Peninsula Insurance, says the 2% average rate decrease shows the property insurance market is stabilizing.

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you are spending time with family and good friends.

Happy Friday Y'all! Have a great weekend.

It's Trivia Tuesday! And I got this one wrong (oops). What say you?

I miss my little guy SOOOO much! Drop a pic of your favorite pup in the comments to brighten my day.

Here's an update on national and local real estate! The Fed kept rates steady (again), but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell sounded more dovish than he has previously, and the majority of Fed members are still projecting 2-3 rate cuts before year-end 2024. Mortgage rates dropped back below 7%, and new home starts and existing home sales both surprised positively!

With many insurers requesting new roofs at alarming rates, this is going from just a good idea to a must!

Welcome to Spring!

The good news is that average mortgage rates have moved back below 7%. The market is laser-focused on the BLS February jobs number out on Friday. The 379K job additions could spook the bond market and see mortgage rates climb again. Hope you enjoy my national and local real estate update. Know someone that you think would like to receive this? Let me know!
