Home Costs + Trucking Jobs. Ever wonder why your home's upkeep costs way more than you expected when you first bought it? We found a helpful Axios article that breaks down the hidden costs that come after the purchase. Meanwhile, Florida's trucking industry is a major part of the state's economy, and the demand for truck drivers remains strong due to the movement of goods and freight, so we highlight the top 10 trucking companies in Tally. Finally, a big thanks to our Featured July Partner, Trydent Consulting, and CEO, Christina Lynch. We are excited about their future projects and the positive influence their consulting firm continues to have on our community. Plus, check out the fun August events coming up. πŸ’š

REAL ESTATE

HIDDEN COST OF HOMES

Image Source: Axios

🏠 Unseen expenses of home ownership in 2025. | Bankrate

  • Buying a home is the biggest single expense most people will ever undertake. But a lot of new homeowners are surprised to find that, after they have the keys in hand, the costs just keep going – and they’re adding up to a considerable sum.

  • Bankrate’s 2025 study reveals that hidden costs of owning a single-family home amount to $21,400 annually. Expenses are often overlooked when budgeting to buy, beyond just the price and mortgage. In Florida, homeowners pay even more, with annual upkeep and hidden expenses totaling around $24,713.

  • That’s why consumers are particularly feeling the pain in the form of home maintenance costs – the highest of their hidden costs at $8,808 each year. That’s almost 2 times the cost of utilities/energy ($4,494), double the cost of property taxes ($4,316), 4 times the cost of home insurance ($2,267), and 6 times the cost of internet/cable ($1,515).

  • The bottom line: "Buying is just the beginning," researchers reported. "The squeeze on wallets intensifies after one becomes a homeowner."
