But in parts of the Sun Belt, where the pandemic-era buying frenzy sent values soaring, homeowners are now feeling another delayed effect as local governments and insurers catch up to those peak prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The affordability squeeze is more apparent in Tampa, where the median sale price fell nearly 4 percent year over year in 2025 to more than $355,000, according to data from research firm Attom. That was the steepest annual drop among the country\u2019s most populous metro areas. At the same time, Tampa\u2019s effective tax rate soared 13 percent, the ninth-highest increase.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1240\" height=\"1096\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-7.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1030458\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>If you like this digest, you can get it even earlier \u2014 every evening \u2014 by subscribing to TRD Data, <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/data\/latest\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\ud83c\udfc6 Residential: Miami Beach had the most expensive home sale to hit records in South Florida, with the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":266518,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[123,125,124,88660],"class_list":["post-266517","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news","tag-south-florida-top-real-estate-deals"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266517","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=266517"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266517\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/266518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=266517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=266517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=266517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
