Millions of consumers have consistently paid rent and utilities on time for years without those payments carrying much weight in traditional mortgage qualification. That could now be changing. 🔑

Updated credit scoring models being rolled out through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are designed to better reflect real-world financial habits, especially for renters, gig workers, and buyers with limited traditional credit history.

The lending landscape is evolving quickly, and informed buyers should absolutely be paying attention.

🚨 BURN BAN REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR ALL OF PASCO COUNTY 🚨

is still experiencing extremely dry conditions due to a prolonged lack of rainfall, which means the risk of brush fires remains very high.

Because of this, the countywide Emergency Burn Ban is still active and will remain in place until officials determine conditions are safe.

We’ll notify the community as soon as it’s lifted — but for now, no outdoor burning is allowed in unincorporated Pasco County, including:

❌ Open burning
❌ Campfires or bonfires
❌ Burning yard waste or garbage

What is allowed? ✅
Outdoor cooking in grills or smokers that fully contain the flame and heat. Please make sure coals are completely extinguished when you’re done.

Thank you for helping keep our community safe during these dry conditions.

To report a burn ban violation, call the Pasco County Emergency Communications Center at 727.847.8102.

Big things are happening in Zephyrhills, and Hercules Park is right at the center of it all. Since opening last year—the first new park in the city in over 40 years—Hercules Park has already made a serious impact:

Local businesses saw an immediate boost
One reported a 400% increase in sales on opening weekend
It’s helping drive new energy into the surrounding area

But this isn’t just about one park…
What Else Is Fueling the Growth?
$2.5 million invested into parks citywide
$150,000 grants available for restaurants in the CRA district
$10,000 grants available for homebuyers in the same area
Continued park upgrades and community improvements

This is a coordinated push to make Zephyrhills more than just a stop along the way—it’s becoming a place people want to live, invest, and build something long-term. Contact us to see the properties we have in Zephryhills.

D-Day Invasion coming to Zephyrhills

The Zephyrhills Museum of Military History is gearing up once again for one of its most meaningful events of the year, bringing the community together to remember the legacy of D-Day.

“D-Day: Invasion of Normandy” is scheduled for Saturday, June 7, running from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. An opening ceremony will be held at 11 a.m. to kick off the day’s events, which focus on honoring those who served during the Allied invasion of Normandy in World War II.

Visitors can expect a mix of living history displays, interactive exhibits, and opportunities to reflect on the significance of June 6, 1944. Over the years, the event has drawn strong crowds and continues to be one of the museum’s most attended programs.

Organizers are also looking for community members to take part. Reenactors, military vehicle owners, and others interested in setting up displays are encouraged to sign up and help create a more immersive experience for attendees.

Support from the local community has been a big part of the event’s success in the past, and organizers are hoping to see another solid turnout this year.
