Ned Murray, associate director of the Jorge M. Pérez Metropolitan Center at Florida International University, said the eviction pace would be higher if not for lingering rental aid from federal COVID relief dollars.
“Los alquileres en Miami-Dade aumentaron un 34 % interanual (2020-2021) y continúan encareciéndose en 2022, mientras los salarios han incrementado alrededor de un 3% durante este tiempo”, indicó Edward Murray, director asociado de Investigación del Centro.
According to Florida International University's Dr. Edward Murray, an expert on housing market issues, adding to these pressures is the trend of investment companies sometimes buying up entire neighborhoods, driving up housing prices. Home purchases by big investors has skyrocketed in Florida, Murray said.
