Miami Newsletter October 2025 Edition and Around Town Activities
Here is your Miami Newsletter October 2025 edition packed full of information and wonderful activities around Miami.
Hello,
While autumn in South Florida may not bring crisp air just yet, the season is officially here—and so is a shift in our market. We’re seeing a clear move toward a buyer’s market, with Southeast Florida home sales expected to gain momentum in 2026 as interest rates trend lower. The Fed has already made its first cut in 2025, with more expected ahead, and MIAMI Realtors® forecasts the 30-year fixed mortgage rate dropping from 6.6% in 2025 to around 6% in 2026—welcome news for buyers ready to make their move.
In this edition, we’ve included a simple breakdown of the “Save Our Homes” benefit, articles to keep you up to speed on market trends, the latest interest rates, and a peek at what our team’s been up to. Scroll down for local events and some festive fall porch ideas to bring seasonal charm to your home.
Stay cool, stay informed—and as always, I’m just a call away if you need help navigating your next real estate move.
Dive in and celebrate the season—Miami style!
John
