I heard it again yesterday: “I want a home with a pool but don’t want to give up my interest rate”. What are you trading in order to keep the rate? Peace? Future memories made?

Three families gave up 3% mortgage rates. Here’s what they got in return https://t.co/wBkF4JrfmY

This is a very interesting graphic showing U.S. Home Price Growth by State (2021–2026) https://t.co/zkwZJk8OHX

@spencerpratt I love the analogy; it’s so true that our connection to a place is rooted in our memories there. Even the worst situations make for the best stories later on. God Bless America and all those that love and protect her 🇺🇸

[Kerrin Kostelic @floridakerrin]

Brilliant speech! Indeed, Americans have been forged from the bravest, strongest, most resilient people the world had who came here to fight for and establish this great country; we are so very lucky to have descended from those incredible souls 🇺🇸♥️🤍💙

[Kerrin Kostelic @floridakerrin]

Happy Birthday to the GREATEST NATION on Earth! Yes, I still believe that in spite of her warts, America is a beacon of freedom and opportunity in this world. God did ‘shed his grace on thee’ and for that I shall be forever grateful

@nwfdailynews This is stomach turning…stop the bleeding of our tax dollars and programs that should be helping PATIENTS, not these thieves.

[Kerrin Kostelic @floridakerrin]

Wow 😮

Government regulation at all levels accounts for $131,734, or 26.4%, of the average new single-family home price.

(per National Association of Home Builders study)

@routzen @PeterSchorschFL Very interesting story…certainly looks to be some shady stuff happening. My question is “Who IS Ms. Bell Rivera that she should be given such seemingly preferential treatment”?

[Kerrin Kostelic @floridakerrin]

Pricing a home correctly from the beginning remains to be a key factor in achieving best price for your property.

True!

I'm going to tell you a little secret about Florida:
"Palmetto Bug" is just a fancy name for a flying cockroach the size of your face.

You're welcome.

According to forecasts from Fannie Mae, Wells Fargo, and the Mortgage Bankers Association, 30-year fixed mortgage rates are expected to remain in the low-to-mid 6% range through Q4 2027.

Q4 2027 Forecasts:
Fannie Mae: 6.2%
Wells Fargo: 6.2%
MBA: 6.5%

As of last week, Freddie Mac reported the average 30-year fixed rate at 6.48%.

Economists don't currently see the kind of economic slowdown that would likely be needed to push rates materially lower. In fact, MBA economists recently said mortgage rates could stay "higher for longer."

64F and relatively low humidity this beautiful morning in NW Florida…a rarity for this time of year!

[Ron DeSantis @GovRonDeSantis]

The 2026 Atlantic hurricane season just started, but Florida is dedicated to disaster preparedness all year round. We always plan for the worst that nature can throw at us, and we execute those plans to ensure effective response, recovery, and restoration. 

I encourage all Florida residents and visitors to have a household plan for hurricane season that considers the needs of children, seniors, and pets in their family. Disaster preparedness essentials—including many pet items—are now tax-free in Florida.

Make sure to follow @FLSERT and your local emergency management for important updates heading into this hurricane season!

[Brock Juarez @Juarez_Brock]

Don’t fall for the scare tactics being used against @RonDeSantis’ Save Our Homes proposal. Critics are claiming it’ll “inevitably” make non-homestead taxes soar, rents explode, and sales taxes balloon. Yet they are conveniently leaving out two key facts:

1. It actually strengthens the current cap on assessed value increases for rentals, second homes, commercial properties & more — cutting it from 10% to 5%.

But most importantly…

2. YOU elect your county and city officials. They work for you. If it passes, watch what they do and hold them accountable at the ballot box. Nothing is inevitable. It’s a choice.

Your vote decides what happens next. Use it.

Middle-income households can afford just 23% of listings nationwide, according to a new report from NAR + @realtordotcom

In a balanced market, that number would be 44%.

The report estimates the U.S. needs 311,000 additional listings under $261K to close the gap.

This is so awesome. Honestly, when did we stop having functional kitchens? It's all in the details.
