[quote=Anonymous]What’s it like owning a home in Florida? Great. We rent it out most of the time and visit a few times a year. Is it difficult to insure your home and how does flood insurance work? Just don't be in a bad flood zone. Do your mechanical systems last a full 10 years, or does the weather shorten the lifespan? Probably shorter due to salt air. For example, when we needed a new AC unit, that's when we learned that our current one was not rated for salt air. Live and learn/cheap ass builder. How would owning a home in Florida compare to owning a home in the DMV? More maintenance? The same? We have a management company so as long as your management company is good and the report issues, you can get ahead of them- eg, when to paint, if you need pest control visits, etc. If you live in FL part-time, what do you do to maintain your home when you’re not there? N/A Mgmnt company manages year-round.[/quote]
