"Housefishing" has hit real-estate listings. Like catfishing, when someone’s appearance doesn’t match their photos, housefishing is when a property doesn’t live up to its AI-generated listing photos.

Some real estate agents say it’s getting out of hand. AI can help homebuyers visualize a house’s potential, but it can also mislead them about what a space actually looks like. So if that dream listing looks too good to be true, you may not want to get your hopes up.

Oh yes. Living the dream in Vero Beach FL.

A Florida enclave on the Atlantic is emerging as a quieter alternative to South Beach.

“Vero has been overlooked for a long time,” Douglas Elliman agent Michael Merrill tells https://rltor.cm/mCuTF2®. “It used to be called ‘Zero Beach,’ because there wasn’t a lot to do here.”
