BROWARD-MIAMI Podcast Episode 6 :Inside Florida Real Estate Policy: A Conversation with Senator Ana Maria Rodriguez

Now this episode is a conversation with Florida Senator and MIAMI REALTORS® Chief of Strategic Initiatives Ana Maria Rodriguez.     2025 Broward-MIAMI President Larry Singh, MIAMI Director of Broward Outreach Jalina Pittman and Ana Maria talk about how MIAMI's award-winning advocacy team works with elected lawmakers to shape policy to help homeowners and business owners. They talk about how the State Legislature helped first-time homebuyers once again earlier this year with more funding for the Hometown Heroes program. The trio also talk about one of the hottest topics right now in the state --- property taxes. Ana Maria doesn't believe property taxes will be eliminated in Florida because this is how we keep our cities running. But she sees other possibilities such as increasing the homestead threshold.
