What Is the Impact of Hurricanes
on Housing Values?

Although no two natural disasters are the same, there are real estate patterns which can be identified and anticipated
Hurricanes and Housing
With all the heightened news coverage and emotions following hurricane Ian, you may be wondering what will happen to property values in Florida. Our managing broker, Craig Cerreta, provides important insights in "Hurricanes and Housing Values." He explains in detail six key factors to consider -- 1) Extent of damage, 2) Location relative to the primary impact zone, 3) Risk of increased frequency and intensity, 4) Insurance, 5) New construction and 6) Supply and demand. His conclusion: "We can state with a high degree of confidence that similar hurricanes in the past have seen recovery followed by increasing values." Read the full paper to learn details supporting his conclusion.

Over the last week and a half, we've been amazed by the incredible and swift action so many of our neighbors, business leaders and government agencies have taken to identify and reach out to those in need. In addition to individual efforts, there are many ways to collectively support the cause. Please find below relief initiatives
