Several States Drive 20 Percent of Remodel Activity
It’s remarkable to see how much of the nation’s remodeling activity is concentrated in just a few key states—California, Texas, and Florida are leading the way, with California alone accounting for 8% of the $22.2B remodeling market. From 2023 to 2025, overall spending has climbed by more than 10%, spurred on by factors I encounter every day here in Florida: aging homes, increased home equity, and a robust network of 128,000 remodeling firms across the country.

My background as both a Florida Broker and Certified Appraiser gives me a first-hand perspective on how these trends impact local property values and the decisions homeowners face. Understanding where investment in remodeling is flowing—and why—can be a valuable guide for buyers and sellers alike as they position their homes in a highly competitive landscape.

Americans Name Nashville and Florida the Most Desirable Places to Live in 2026
It’s interesting to see Nashville and Florida leading the way as the most desirable places to live in 2026. For those of us who’ve watched the Florida market evolve over decades, it comes as no surprise that our state tops the list—especially as high costs and taxes push California and New York further down in desirability. My years as both a Florida Real Estate Broker and Certified Appraiser have given me a front-row seat to Florida’s unique appeal: a blend of lifestyle, economic factors, and value that continues to draw residents from across the country. Meanwhile, cities like Chicago are facing new challenges, including concerns over crime and changing regulations, which is reflected in their lower ranking. Understanding these trends is key, whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or simply make sense of where the market is heading.

Florida Leads 2026 Desirability Rankings
It’s no surprise to see Florida leading the 2026 desirability rankings for the third year in a row—about one in three Americans see our state as a top destination to call home. As someone who has worked in Florida real estate since 1988 and seen countless market cycles, I find it especially interesting that both Tampa and Orlando made the top 10 most desirable metros this year. Tampa, in particular, is a fascinating case: it’s ranked among both the most and least desirable major metros, highlighting just how diverse opinions can be about our largest markets.

What stands out to me is the consistency of Florida’s appeal. Orlando’s top-10 finish, alongside Tampa, shows that demand isn’t concentrated in just one city—it’s spread across the state. After decades appraising and brokering homes in these markets, I’ve learned how important it is to understand not just the data, but the motivations behind these trends. Florida’s three-year run at the top is a testament to its enduring draw, and it’s exciting to see our local markets continue to capture national attention.

Report: Majority of Metro Areas Saw Home Prices Increase in Q2
As someone who’s spent decades analyzing Florida’s real estate landscape—both as a broker and an appraiser—I pay close attention to national trends and what they mean for buyers and sellers here. In Q2 2026, over 80% of metro markets across the country experienced home price increases, with the national median price rising 1.5% to $434,900. The South, in particular, led the way in sales growth. Mortgage rates held steady in the mid-6% range, which continues to shape the dynamics for many buyers. Inventory and affordability remain real hurdles, especially for those entering the market for the first time. My background in property valuation reminds me just how vital it is to price homes accurately in this climate and to understand how these broader trends can impact your individual goals. Whether you’re considering making a move or simply tracking the market, it’s more important than ever to stay informed and strategic.
