The Best Florida Cities For First Time Home Buyers
There are many people in Florida that are first time home buyers. A new list has come out and a bunch of Florida cities for those buyers. WalletHub has released their annual list of the best and worst cities in the United States for first time home buyers. There are five Florida cities in the Top 10. What’s even better than than is that all of the Florida cities are the first five on the list.
The way WalletHub came up with the list is they compared 300 cities of varying sizes across 22 key indicators. Those indicators are of market attractiveness, affordability and quality of life. They say, “Where a home is located is just as important as what features it has. If the neighborhood is unpleasant, it can sour the experience of a great home. Potential buyers may want to narrow their search down to an area with a good reputation before getting into housing details.”
It is pretty cool that Florida is a great state for first time home buyers, but what are the worst cities for them? Well, nine of the Top 10 worst cities are in California. Additionally, the only non-California city is Anchorage, Alaska, which is #3. Berkeley, California is the #1 worst city followed by Santa Monica.
