Your House In The Tampa Bay Area Is Worth More…Again
Real estate rose in Florida...again.
The rest of the country’s real estate market has chilled after a long run of insane prices. But that doesn’t include the Tampa Bay area. Why is that?
In fact, most of Florida‘s housing values continue to rise every single month. According to Zillow, the rest of the United States has cooled off, remaining nearly flat across the board. But Florida is the exception, with prices going up yet again.
How much? Across the rest of the country, real estate prices jumped about 0.1% over the last year, while Florida property leap-frogged those numbers with a 21% rise in values. In fact, the four largest jumps in real estate value across the U.S. occurred right here in Florida. Miami went up by 23%, Tampa rose 21%, Orlando rose by 20% and Jacksonville rose by just under 20%.
Accompanying the hot prices, however, are high mortgage rates. That one factor has kept a lot of buyers from taking the plunge recently. That’s why it’s been a bit easier to find and negotiate for a home lately. By comparison, mortgage payments have risen form about 27% of household income to almost 38% in the last year. That means that while sales have slowed, the prices have failed to fall. Florida remains among the hottest real estate markets on Earth. The average sale price of a home in the Bay area now stands at $400,000, which is a stunning 72% increase in value since 2019. For those who are waiting out a red-hot housing market, it’s expensive. Rent continues to be daunting, with the average monthly cost coming in at $2,145 a month. That’s a 10% increase in the last year.
The Fed’s recent moves can be attributed to the slowdown in housing prices across America, as financing becomes more expensive and taxes rise. Recent economic indicators point toward a possible cooling of runaway inflation, which cool mean more people getting back into the market and buying more properties here in the Sunshine State.

Pete Davidson Will Eventually Bang Them All
Pete Davidson: Here Are The Famous Women Who He Has Dated
Pete Davidson, AKA the man who dates the hottest women in Hollywood, has baffled and awed the public with who he has managed to become intimate with. The Staten Island comedian and former Saturday Night Live cast member has gotten really far in his dating life by being a funny guy with “BDE” (we’ll thank Ariana Grande for that one, and Kim Kardashian for confirming). He’s been with older women, younger women, and women his age; he’s been with actresses, singers, models and comedians — his love knows no bounds.
The hopeless romantic opened up back in 2020 about his desire for love and hope to one day be a dad. Per People, Davidson said, “I love love. That’s how I grew up. Just my mom, my sister — I didn’t have a man around the house, so I was just like, ‘When am I going to find my Princess Charming?’ That’s all I’ve ever wanted.” He added, “I just want to have a kid, that’s it. I think that would be awesome.” The comedian even considered adopting with his mother, jokingly adding, “I think everybody is afraid of the Davidson seed.”
He went on to reveal, “I cry a lot. I get into deep conversations. I care about your s—. I like to meet your family. I like to know who you are. And some families are like, ‘Who the f— are you?’ So I’m a lot for certain people. It was just how I was raised.”
If you’re single in Hollywood, you better watch out, because you might be next in line to date Pete Davidson. Take a walk down memory lane of Pete’s exes, to which most have only said positive things about the actor:
Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny.
That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards.
After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind.
He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex.
He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
