Truthfully, S. FL is quite pricey (we had major sticker shock when we moved here). If you can't afford to live here, there are lots of other places around the country to live.

The market will take care of itself. No big deal. Condo flippers are already losing big bucks in Florida. Here is a report about people who have lost $ 50,000 to $ 80,000 in the past few months. Ought to titled 'Flippers Flopping in Florida' or some other clever iteration: Palm Beach Post

Like I said before, 'no big deal.' Read More? The free market will work very quickly to eliminate newby property speculators and local wanna bees. Most of the major players have already pulled out.

Why should they? The rich don't have to move so why should the rest of us? Isn't there supposed to be equality under the law? That is not fair and you are mean-spirited.

Those comments are so ridiculous I would think everyone would recognize them as sarcasm. However, there are so many idiots who think that way I had better say that I am not one of them.

The problem is that part of FL has basically become zoned by developers.

They are fueling speculation and many of those condos are time share/hotel units which are prohibited from having a homestead tax cap.

This is not about afordable housing this is about passing some excuse (which will be overturned as a government taking) just to get the next wave of speculation (buy and flip) residential units.
