Here’s how affordable housing is built in Central Florida

SANFORD, Fla. – A new study from the Orlando Regional Realtor Association shows the median cost of a house in Central Florida is $315,000, driven by the booming population growth even through the pandemic.

That growth is also driving up rent prices, now averaging $1536 as reported by CoStar group — making finding affordable housing or rent nearly impossible for those who are either on fixed or lower incomes, like Thellis Houck.
