Florida’s Gulf Coast has been hit by three hurricanes in two months, causing widespread flooding, storm surges, and property damage. Residents are feeling anxious and exhausted, as the storms have impacted housing, insurance costs, and tourism. While the short-term real estate market may slow due to recovery efforts, Florida’s resilient communities tend to bounce back quickly, with housing demand often surging within months. New regulations, including mandatory flood disclosures and potential flood insurance requirements, are shaping the future of homeownership in the region. Builders are also adapting by upgrading hurricane protection standards to make homes safer.
