$$$ LOST REVENUE Florida counties could lose billions of dollars in revenue. So, how would local governments pay for essential services? One word: more taxes ⚠️. Sales tax ↑, local taxes ↑ Expect a higher state sales tax ️, maybe even local tax increases . That’s a shift from a property-based tax system to a consumption-based one. And here’s where it gets complicated… Homeowners smiling Sure, homeowners might celebrate at first — no property taxes means more money in your pocket . But if sales taxes spike, the cost of living could rise , and home values might drop due to cuts in public services.

Apartment building What about renters and low-income households? They don’t pay property taxes directly, but landlords do — and those costs usually get passed down through rent . Without property taxes, landlords save… but higher sales taxes mean renters now pay more on everything . School, fire truck, road with potholes And if counties can’t fill the gap? Services could be cut . That means underfunded schools, fewer emergency crews, and crumbling infrastructure .

‍ Broker Alice Lonnqvist of Home Max Realty International, who’s been helping South Florida buyers and sellers for over 30 years ️, says this could totally reshape the real estate market. ❓ So, what do you think?
