Some analysts say with a financial crisis unlikely to occur and high home equity, only a buyer drop or huge uptick in sellers could spark a crisis despite rising prices.

Something that is heavy on my mind this morning is the flood insurance rate hike. As a real estate broker and real estate investor I am going to be affected in many ways. The Biggerrt-Waters Reform Act of 2012 that was passed by congress and signed by the president extended the National Flood Insurance program for another five years but in order to have a reliable long term program to protect one from flood damage, some changes must happen. Hurricane Katrina in 2005 put the program in debt for $17 Billion and Hurricane Sandy in 2012 added another $10 Billion in debt. In order keep the program actuarially sound, they need to chip away at the almost $30 Billion debt that has occurred. So how does this affect Florida real estate? NOT IN A GOOD WAY! This will dramatically have an impact on the strengthening Florida economy including existing homeowners and those wanting to buy. It could also keep someone from reselling their home because no one will be able to afford a new flood insurance policy. Not to mention, the increase may also force a homeowner to default on their current mortgage and therefore eventually foreclose. The National Association of Realtors is currently working with FEMA urging them to use discretion in order to be fair and help the flood program be affordable. The amount a policy will increase depends on rates/ flood maps/ new flood zone maps/ type and age of home & other variables so it depends on alot of factors. You can visit the FEMA website for more information and I would also recommend to call your insurance agent for details on your current policy and how this change will affect you. I have already received my notices for the flood insurance increases. :( What a shame that people who have always dreamt of living in a waterfront property in Florida may now never be able to financially afford to all because of a flood insurance premium! ~ blog written by Donna Johns, Licensed Florida Real Estate Broker and owner of Florida Style Realty
