Come on down, but leave your mask at home. (Unless you are traveling by air.)
And we have the best governor in the country !
The heat and humidity have gone away and the native Floridians are starting to wear coats, but many of us non-natives are still in shorts.
It would be very nice to be in Florida right now. My in laws spent their winters in Boca Raton for several years. We went there for Christmas one year and the weather was just perfect. It was like being in paradise. Lately I have been thinking about going to Albuquerque for the Winter. It gets cool there but they still have sunshine almost every day. I am thinking that it would probably cost me a lot less to spend 3 months there then it would in Florida.
DeSantis has been selling the state’s ports for opening up the supply chain. Does anyone know how that is working?
My mask karen spouse would not be happy, but, we moved to Colorado, near home of Lauren Boebert, so she has a whole new world to bitch about now .
Wow, you must have very poor judgement to have chosen such a miserable woman.
I guess that explains why the traffic has been horrendous
I’m guessing many of these folks are checking out Fla as a possible relocation destination.
Went down with the family last month. Weather was perfect, no mask requirements, everything was open.
So I moved to FL in April from NW NJ, which is 10-15 degrees colder year round than the rest of the state.
When it's 45 out in NJ, I used to put on a light jacket.
This morning, I took the dog for a walk, it's 44 degrees here in central Florida. I'm bundled up like Nanook of the North! It's cold, the sky just won't snow ;)
Being one of those “blue refugees (we’re scheduled to close on a house at the end of December),” I get a little concerned. Apparently, much if calipornia and NYC is taking up residence in the Sunshine State, including many major and minor celebrities. As an example, Mick Jagger bought a house in Sarasota. My realtor says the influx from the SF Bay area is tremendous.
These folks may have had reality smack some sense into them on some issues, but I have my doubts that they will all have become thorough-going conservatives.
you don’t need a broker to sell your house in FL. Put it on zillow and it’ll sell in less than two weeks. Save the 30k in commissions. Called my attorney and he’ll handle the paperwork and closing for less than 5k.
Word to the wise...if selling by owner, don’t allow a broker to bring the buyer to see your home, or you’ll be on the hook for that broker’s commission. Every potential buyer should be screened and notified that you will not cooperate with a broker.
Overdue to travel, visiting a free and open state, and visiting to see if they possibly want to relocate there...yeah, tourism would climb.
So, how many of these tourists are actually potential migrants, checking out the place before deciding to come down for good?
I’m a FL resident as of this past Nov. 15. I always tell people down here, when they ask where I’m from, that I am from Maryland, but I’m not bringing that down here with me. :-)
They keep building housing development after housing development .
When the next water shortage comes and the aquifers can't handle the draw downs and sink hole after sink hole appears they will be crying like babies!
