Florida Governor Calls For Special Session To Eliminate Property Tax For Homeowners
Authored by Jacki Thrapp via The Epoch Times,
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on May 27 called for a special legislative session to pass his plan to exempt homeowners from paying property taxes on their permanent residence.
The Republican governor revealed his plans to sign a proclamation that would require state lawmakers to convene in Tallahassee and discuss his “Save Our Homes” proposal starting on June 1.

US New Home Sales Tumbled In April As Prices Soared
With Case-Shiller reporting existing home price declines in half of America's largest cities, and after two straight months of rip-roaring demand, NAR reports that New Home Sales in April tumbled 6.2% MoM (almost twice as bad as the 3.2% MoM decline expected).

Source: Bloomberg

Finally, while existing home prices are lower, median new home price rose 2.2% y/y to $422,500; average selling price at $508,800.
This was the biggest MoM jump in median new home prices since 2019...
Not great for affordability.
