There should really be an initiation ceremony when you become a Florida homeowner.

Nobody officially gives you the rules. You just slowly realize you've developed a very specific set of Florida homeowner habits.

So let's play a little Florida Homeowner Bingo.

How many of these can you check off?

Fall in Tampa Bay is a little different.

While other parts of the country are pulling out sweaters and watching leaves change colors, we're over here ordering pumpkin coffee while it's 88 degrees outside. ?

But that doesn't mean we don't love fall.

We just do it Florida-style.

If you've spent any time around Tampa Bay lately, you've probably heard a lot about Wesley Chapel, Florida. What was once a quieter area north of Tampa has grown into a community filled with new neighborhoods, restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and plenty of things to do.

The things people end up loving most are usually the little things.

One question I love asking buyers is, "What will make this place feel like home?"

The answers are almost never, "The countertops."

Instead, I hear things like...

"I can picture my family having dinner here."

The best homes are the ones where you can picture ordinary Tuesday evenings just as easily as holiday celebrations.
