best bienes realtor Housing affordability was a big issue in 2023, with a record low 15.5% of homes for sale this year considered affordable for a typical household, and Miami was no exception. In 2023, housing affordability nationally was down from 20.7% in 2022, according to a new Redfin report.  Miami’s share of affordable homes fell to just 1.7% in 2023, down from 3.2% in 2022. It wasn’t just affordability that fell last year. The number of affordable homes also tumbled, falling to their lowest level on record. In 2023, there were 352,500 affordable listings, a 40.9% drop from 2022’s 596,135 and down more than a million per year during the previous 10 years.  Redfin says the decline is partly due to the drop in listings but also attributes elevated mortgage rates and high prices on newer listings.  Redfin, though, expects housing affordability to improve in 2024, and Senior Economist Elija de la Campa says it’s already starting. “Many of the factors that made 202...

best bienes realtor As Miami-Dade commissioners last week asked the state for money, they also unanimously passed four measures asking the state to take its heavy foot off the county’s back. The target was preemption – legislation that specifies powers reserved to the state alone and bars locally added controls. More-frequent preemptions have centralized powers in the Florida Legislature and governor at the expense of county and city commissioners and mayors, who resent being penned into narrower roles. Not all preemption is wrong. A long-standing prohibition on a city or county income tax, for example, seems proper in a state that has consistently avoided such a tax itself. But local governments that feel closer to the needs of their residents lament that the state often insists on one-size-fits-all solutions to issues that may hit rural North Florida much differently than an urban metropolis like Miami-Dade County. In a long and geographically diverse state, needs often d...
