Leaving Florida 7/24/26
38 segments
With a CNBC Your Money Minute, I'm
Jessica Ettinger. Once upon a time,
people wanted to retire and move to
Florida. These days, maybe not so much.
The people there are trying to get out.
>> Florida, Parcel Labs had some data last
couple of days on the percent of active
listings that have a price cut is well
above the national rate.
>> Yeah, and it also shows that there are
so many homes for sale in Florida that
one in seven homes in Florida for sale,
according to Parcel Labs.
>> CNBC's Diana Olick with Carl
Quintanilla. One in every seven homes in
Florida is on the market. Of course, all
real estate is local. It's not
everywhere in Florida.
>> You've got this issue of the costs are
going up, higher insurance prices,
people are moving out of the state, and
so there are parts of Florida that are
really softening, but it goes, you know,
market to market. Tampa is kind of
having the big problems right now.
Miami's still seeing an influx of
buyers.
>> Back in 2020 as the pandemic took hold,
people picked up and moved to Florida.
And so much demand sent home prices
soaring. Now, some of those same people
are leaving, and they're still trying to
make back the pandemic price they paid
for that property, many with no luck.

Recent data from Parcel Labs indicates a shift in the Florida real estate market, where an unusually high number of homes are for sale and receiving price cuts. While the market is experiencing significant softening in areas like Tampa, some regions like Miami still maintain buyer demand after the pandemic-era housing surge.
