If you saw my post a couple months ago my mother passed away. I live in SWFL the oldest region in the state and expensive too. I inherited the house. 2330 SQ ft 4 bed house. Too much house for a single guy but also upkeep with HOA, taxes going sky high around here and insurance in FL keeps going up as you know and income earnings suck around here.
I want to move somewhere younger out of FL but not super cold. I was looking at the Galveston area. Houston metro and a lot younger AND housing tons cheaper there. I could sell this house, pay the mortgage off and I will have enough left over to buy a 3 bed house in cash and no more house payments the rest of my life since they're cheaper in TX. Places around Corpus Christie and Brownsville a lot cheaper. 3 bed new construction houses for 250k.
Car insurance I looked at is much cheaper in TX too and would save me cash. Brownsville because South Padre Island is next to it and spring break.
I know earnings wise Galveston area would be better because of Houston.
You people have no idea how expensive FL is getting. In my region it's a terrible time to sell! Everyone around here is selling their houses. Especially second homes due to insurance, taxes, HOA fees shooting up. It's making the national news now.
