Good News for Florida Homebuyers 👏

The Florida House and Senate have approved the 2026-2027 state budget, which includes $50 million in funding for the Hometown Heroes Program.

This is welcome news for Florida's first-time homebuyers and the communities they serve. Over the past several years, the program has helped thousands of Floridians overcome one of the biggest barriers to homeownership: upfront down payment and closing costs.

The budget has been approved by the Florida House and Senate and now heads to Governor DeSantis for review and signature. Additional program details are expected once the budget is finalized and implementation guidance is released.

If you bought a home over the last few years, your refinance “strike rate” may be closer than you think.

A new LendingTree study found that nearly 1 in 3 homeowners who bought between 2023 and 2025 could potentially benefit from refinancing, with average savings estimated around $2,320 per year.

And the interesting part?

It doesn’t always take a massive rate drop for the numbers to start making sense.

Sometimes even a small improvement can help monthly cash flow, reduce high-interest debt faster, or create a little more financial breathing room.

And refinancing isn’t the only strategy worth looking at right now. If you’ve built up equity, a HELOC may also help you consolidate debt or access funds without replacing your current first mortgage.

Might be worth seeing where your personal strike rate actually is.

According to a recent LendingTree study, over one-third of homeowners who obtained a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage between 2023 and 2025 might save thousands a year by refinancing at market rates seen in early April 2026.

Sometimes the reason people move has nothing to do with square footage or getting a better deal.

It’s about Sunday dinners.
Being closer to grandkids.
Having family nearby for the moments that matter most.

Home isn’t just where you live.
It’s who you get to share life with.
