NAR's housing report yesterday had some good news. While the sales numbers were down, they weren't as dismal as many economists expected. Some investors saw that as positive news, and a sign that the housing downturn is on the verge of bottoming out. Read More

Two economists are broadcasting some great news for the Tampa Bay area. In recent seminars, economist Dr. Hank Fishkind is stating that the bottom has been reached in some parts of Tampa Bay and is near bottom in the remainder. Economist Dr. Ted Jones is stating that Tampa Bay has reached the bottom and is already experiencing recovery in our area. Florida was the first to experience the decline and is leading the way to recovery. Tampa Bay is leading Florida in home sales, so does that make us one of the first recovering markets in the state???

The availability of early tee times, warm weather and lots of sunshine will always help make a city attractive to retirees. But as baby boomers begin to enter a more active and longer retirement than their parents, early signs suggest that they're looking for more. To determine the best places for retirees, Forbes.com compared 100 of the largest U.S. metropolitan areas along traditional criteria, including leisure activities and the availability of health care . But Forbes also looked at new factors, like the retirement job market and came up with a surprising list of winners. The top U.S. city for retirees is Tampa, Florida!! The city's tax burdens and cost of living are relatively low, and health care costs and access are very favorable. Tampa's arts and leisure rank is in the top third of cities measured keeping retirees active with plenty to do. Read More...

Florida Real Estate Tax News Upate... Your Florida real estate property taxes most likely went down. Florida residents will soon receive their "truth in millage" statements that give property owners information on next year's property taxes. But this year, almost 94 percent of Florida state homeowners will see some savings thanks to a new law passed during July's special session of the Florida Legislature. Counties in which property taxes rose the most over the past few years will see the greatest reduction of 9 percent. TRIM (truth in millage) notices can be detailed and hard to decipher, however. To calculate your personal savings, compare two columns: "Your Property Taxes Last Year" tells you how much you currently pay; "Your Taxes if PROPOSED Budget Change is Made" tells you how much the city or county plans to charge next year. Just subtract the former from the latter.
