The Sunshine Johnny Mission
Is Florida Right for You?
There has been a big rush on the movement to Florida over the past few years. Covid sparked an increased awareness that people can work from home, and they figured that they might as well live in an area that offered them better climate and lifestyle at more affordable prices.
Along the way, Florida stood out as a great option due to the great NO STATE INCOME TAX benefit. This migration pattern away from the bigger cities to Florida caused lots of challenges for existing Floridians.
Sunshine Johnny will discuss the challenges and the benefits of moving to Florida. We’ll present you with facts and information that can help you to see if it is a right decision for you. The prices have risen dramatically and some of the most affordable areas are no longer within reach. Other areas are developing and being reinvented to attract buyers away from the other communities. I have visited nearly 100 cities in Florida by now, and I am excited to share the information that I have found along the way. I’ve met over 75 Sunshine Agents who can help you to take an even deeper dive into some of the areas that may appeal to you.
