‼️ New laws in effect today ‼️ GREAT news for homeowners and those who want to be homeowners but dont have closing $$. Here are some highlights. See the link for all updates. 🤩

"Hometown Heroes Housing Program (SB 328): Adds $100 million to the successful first-time homebuyer program. (Funds run out so act quick!)

My Safe Florida Home Program (SB 7028): Adds $200 million to the program so more Floridians can protect their homes against storms and reduce their insurance premiums. The bill also provides for home inspections without having to apply for a grant, lets low-income homeowners receive up to $10,000 without having to match the amount

$408 Million for State and Local Affordable Housing Programs: Lawmakers allocated $408 million to the State and Local Government Housing Trust Funds. This includes $174 million for the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) which includes downpayment and closing cost assistance programs, and $234 million for the State Apartment Incentive Loan program (SAIL) which helps build affordable rental housing
Property Insurance Cost Reductions (HB 7073): Requires insurers to give homestead property owners a deduction on their residential property insurance premiums in the amount of 1.75% of the policyholder’s total premium. It applies to policies with coverage for a 12-month period.

Protecting Private Property Rights (HB 62): Addresses issues with squatters who occupy private property by allowing property owners or their agents to request the immediate removal of unlawfully occupying persons from a residential dwelling"
