Shopping for a home can be tedious. But, if you live in a state where the temperature averages 35 degrees during the winter, the decision to move to Florida shouldn’t be. There comes a point in the decision making process when you have to set aside the glossy color brochures and cabinet samples and make an objective decision. If you are a logical person, you’ve probable used the Ben Franklin approach at one time or another.
Well, put your hands together and welcome back Mr. B. Frank for an anchor performance that compares living in Florida to living up north.
Florida: hot summers, warm winters, no state income tax, brand new afordable homes with palm trees & pools
Winter activities: Golf, Beach & Fishing
Up North: Hot summers, freezing cold, bone-chilling winters, big time state income tax, old, outdated, expensive homes that need renovated
Winter activities: Watch TV while drinking beer in the basement
