July Newsletter 2025

A Message from the Miami Chapter

As we welcome July, we want to thank each of you for your continued support and engagement with our association. Your active participation is what keeps our chapter thriving, and June offered some excellent opportunities to connect, learn, and lead.

We’d like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who joined us for the Property Tax Power Hour with the Miami-Dade Tax Collector Honorable Dariel Fernandez and Florida State Representative Tom Fabricio. The discussion provided timely and important insights into property tax policies and legislative updates that directly impact our industry and our clients.

Also in June, several of our board members represented the Miami Chapter at the FAMP Quarterly Meeting in Orlando. It was a productive gathering of industry professionals from across the state, focused on collaboration, advocacy, and planning for the future of mortgage professionals in Florida.

We’re excited to carry this energy into July and look forward to seeing you at our upcoming events. As always, your involvement is the key to our continued success.

Warm regards,

Your Miami FAMP Board Members

Property Valuation & Policy: Insights from Miami Dade Property Appraiser Tomas Regalado

We were honored to host the Miami-Dade County Tax Collector, Honorable Dariel Fernandez, along with Florida State Representative Tom Fabricio, for an exclusive Property Tax Power Hour with our members. This impactful session shed light on the property tax collection process, current legislative developments, and key issues affecting property owners and professionals across our region.

This was a unique opportunity to engage with influential public officials and deepen our understanding of how taxation policy intersects with homeownership, real estate, and mortgage lending. Events like this reflect our ongoing commitment to providing timely, relevant programming that empowers our members with knowledge and influence.

Thank you to our sponsors Trimavin and Kind Lending.
