It’s like asking someone how much weight are they losing by getting better sleep.

I find it's best to get your rental data from a few different sources, weight them, and then do the math.

I agree that Florida real estate prices (and rents) are likely to either grow less quickly than the rest of the country, or decline more rapidly.

However with MACRS, the earlier years are still more heavily weighted than the later years. 

I'd recommend going more north West Palm Beach area is growing rapidly, has a brightline station & has announced some significant devlopments over the the next several years that are very appealing to draw more people students etc.   

You have more weight and you are a more important client.

The rapid growth of the economy has been continuous especially with so many companies moving out here like Google, Meta, Intel, Honda, etc.

Inflation: While real estate is often seen as a hedge against inflation, the rapid increase in costs for materials and labor has made new developments and renovations more expensive, squeezing profit margins.3.

Try to take a long-term view—it usually helps remove the emotional weight and allows you to think more clearly about the problem.
