Buying a home right now feels impossible for a lot of families in Florida and Georgia, but VyStar said it’s trying to change that, especially for the people we all rely on.

Homelessness among Florida families has surged in the last three years as soaring rents and a shortage of affordable housing push more residents into shelters, motels and the streets, a new University of Florida report says.

Tenants at several Jacksonville apartment complexes say they’re living in dangerous, deteriorating conditions while paying rising rents to one of the city’s largest landlords.

While the option of a "grace period" that allows you to pay a few days later than the due date without penalty might seem like a nice bonus from your property manager, it could also be a trap.

A Jacksonville renter says her “affordable” apartment turned into a legal and financial nightmare after she tried to pay rent and then learned days later that she’d been evicted, a case housing advocates say reflects a broader trend worsening the city’s affordability crisis.

A new report from Realtor.com shows the price gap between new construction and existing homes has fallen to a record low, and Jacksonville is among the metro areas seeing some of the steepest declines in new-home list prices.
