☆ These 34 real estate markets provide the best value for US homebuyers looking to build long-term equity instead of paying record-high rent
  + stars: | 2023-08-30 | by ( James Faris | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Hopeful homebuyers can use price-to-rent ratios to see where the best deals are. Decade-high mortgage rates and a housing market shortage have made homebuying complicated for everyone, and impossible for many. That way, buyers can get an attractive deal and build equity instead of getting caught in a housing market bubble. Below are the 34 such markets, along with the price-to-rent ratio as of July 31, the average price-to-rent ratio since March 2015, and the current premium to that long-term average. Only one city — New Orleans, Louisiana — has a discounted price-to-rent ratio, meaning that the city is especially appealing for buyers right now.

☆ Homebuyers flocking to Florida have driven cities in the state to become the most overvalued in the US
  + stars: | 2023-07-06 | by ( Jennifer Sor | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Florida now contains five of the 10 most overvalued cities in the US, thanks to hoards of newcomers in recent years. Tampa, Florida is now the third most overvalued housing market in the country, with buyers paying a 43% premium. Of the top 10 most overvalued housing markets in the US, five are now located in Florida, according to a recent study from Florida Atlantic University and Florida International University. That's a big jump from August 2021, when Florida had zero cities that cracked the top 10. High mortgage rates have driven up borrowing costs for buyers, while limited housing supply has pushed prices higher.

☆ Floridians can blame vacation homes and 'oppressive' homeowners associations for their high rents, economist says
  + stars: | 2023-01-13 | by ( Robert Davis | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Too many vacation rentals and strict homeowners associations are pushing up housing costs, a study said. According to Johnson, there are too many vacation rentals in the Sunshine State. It's this particular combination of strict HOA rules and the sheer number of vacation rentals is a mixture that is affecting housing affordability negatively, he said. According to Johnson's study, Florida is now home to 9 of the 21 most overpriced rental markets in the US. The number of vacation rentals in the state is only making it harder for people to find affordable places to rent, the study suggests.
☆ Remote work is killing Florida as a retirement paradise
  + stars: | 2022-09-11 | by ( Gadel Valle | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +14 min
Housing prices, combined with the rise of remote work, threaten to end the middle-class dream of spending your final days in Florida. "It does put the retirement industry at risk because it's going to become more and more difficult" to retire in Florida, he told me. The political influence of Florida retirees is so significant that national publications send reporters to The Villages before elections to check its political pulse. The dream of a Florida retirement is dying as housing prices make it too expensive for most. And for people who are retiring now, the Florida retirement dream is starting to look a lot less sunny.
