The Realtor Association of Greater Miami and the Beaches (RAMB) will host a victory party to celebrate the passing of Amendment 1 on January 29th.  Industry leaders will be on hand for interviews or comments regarding the passing of the amendment and how it will impact local residents, the local economy, and the South Florida real estate market.  RAMB supports this legislation because it will provide much needed tax relief for local homeowners and will help jump start the real estate market.

Property taxes in Florida have more than doubled in the past six years and local government budgets are growing faster than our residents' ability to pay for them.

Gov. Charlie Crist, Speaker Marco Rubio, FAR (Florida Association of Realtors) and RAMB know that this is not enough, but Amendment 1 is the first step towards meaningful and immediate relief.
