Florida House advances ballot measure to end non-school property taxes on homesteads by 2027

The Florida House approved a joint resolution to place a constitutional amendment on the November ballot that would immediately end non-school property taxes for homesteaded properties beginning January 1, 2027, in an 80-30 vote along party lines. The Senate has not yet proposed a bill, and three-fifths support in both chambers is required to reach the ballot. Senate leaders say they’ll propose their own measure, potentially this session or in a special session. If approved, local governments could face large costs, and Gov. DeSantis has not unveiled a full plan, urging a careful, right approach over speed. The legislative session could extend beyond its scheduled end date.

From Abandoned School to Luxury Apartments: A $4.5 Million Transformation

Three partners purchased an abandoned high school in Homestead, Pennsylvania for $100,000 and converted it into a 31-unit apartment building. They then bought another abandoned school across the street for $90,000 and spent $4.5 million renovating it into a 33-apartment building. The renovation took 18 months and included converting the gym and auditorium into eight two-story apartments. The partners utilized state and federal tax credits and are currently at 85% occupancy, turning a profit. The buildings offer amenities such as a double-decker garage, rooftop deck, basketball court, and gym. The partners have no immediate plans for another project but are open to future ventures.
