Florida lawmakers are exploring a bold proposal: eliminating property taxes entirely. In this episode, we break down what that would mean for homeowners, schools, and the state’s budget—and whether it’s even realistic. Then, we dive into new data showing Americans spent over $600 billion remodeling their homes in 2024, despite rising material costs, labor shortages, and natural disasters. From energy upgrades to accessibility improvements, we explore why homeowners are still investing heavily in their properties—and the growing pressure on the remodeling industry to keep up.

In today’s episode, we break down the latest existing-home sales report from the National Association of REALTORS® and what it tells us about the direction of the housing market heading into spring. We’ll cover key stats on sales, prices, inventory, and first-time buyers—plus where regional growth is heating up.

Then, we pivot to the Federal Reserve’s latest decision to hold interest rates steady. Despite signs of economic softening and tariff-related inflation risks, Chair Jerome Powell struck a calm tone. We’ll explore what this means for mortgage rates, housing affordability, and where the market might go next.

The housing market is shifting, and we’ve got the latest data to break it all down. Home prices are still rising—but at the slowest pace in months, and in some cities, they’re starting to fall. We’ll cover where prices are dropping the most (hint: Florida and Texas are leading the way), why more homes are sitting on the market, and what Zillow’s 2025 forecast means for buyers, sellers, and renters. Plus, with mortgage rates still high, will the housing market stay sluggish or is a rebound coming? Let’s dive into the numbers and what they mean for the future of real estate.

We’ll explore why Proposition 13’s property tax incentives and locked-in low mortgage rates are keeping homeowners from selling, how this is worsening the housing shortage, and why younger buyers are struggling to break into the market.
