When it feels like the cost of just about everything is rising, it’s only natural to wonder what that means for the housing market. Some people are even questioning whether more homeowners will struggle to make their mortgage payments, ultimately leading to a wave of foreclosures. And recent data showing foreclosure filings have increased is only feeding into this fear. But don’t let that scare you.If you put the latest data into context, it’s clear there’s no reason to think this is a repeat of the last housing crash.This Isn’t Like 2008While it’s true that foreclosure filings ticked up in...

MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Monday night’s 138-83 NBA playoff loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers: – Eventually there will be more context to this moment and this season. – Eventually there will be more context to Erik Spoelstra referring to all his team had to endure during the regular season, references that clearly went beyond losses. – Eventually there will be candor about, even at 37-45, a roster maxing out what was available with those two play-in wins. – And eventually most should come to appreciate how missing the lottery actually was beneficial, since it means...

MIAMI – In the end, cold, hard realities caught up to the Miami Heat, their season ending with Monday night’s 138-83 thrashing at the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers at Kaseya Center. The reality of a 37-45 team attempting to win a playoff series against a team that finished 27 games ahead of the standings. The reality of postseason life in the void of Jimmy Butler, who, despite his Heat shenanigans, finds himself in the thick of the Western Conference playoff race with the Golden State Warriors. The reality that a team led by Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo can only go so far with a marginal...

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Inter Miami lost its first MLS game of the season Sunday with Lionel Messi watching from a private box as FC Dallas scored three unanswered goals in the second half for a 4-3 victory. Inter Miami squandered a two-goal advantage and slipped to 5-1-3, with 18 points. Inter Miami lost at Vancouver in the first leg of its CONCACAF Champions Cup semifinal round on Thursday. Messi played all 90 minutes of Miami’s 2-0 loss. With the teams playing the second leg in Miami on Wednesday, the 37-year-old Messi playing Sunday seemed unlikely. Pedrinho scored the go-ahead...

UF QB Graham Mertz the biggest surprise among 7 Gators drafted

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on April 27, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Florida Gators, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports.

GAINESVILLE — Quarterback Graham Mertz was one of the nation’s top quarterback recruits when he signed with Wisconsin, but a longshot to get drafted by the time he left Florida. The Houston Texans decided to give the 24-year-old an opportunity to prove himself, selecting him during the sixth round of the NFL draft with the No. 197 overall pick. After UF failed to produce a draft pick during the first three rounds for the first time since 2012 and just the third instance since 1990 (’92, ’93), Mertz was among seven Gators to have their name called during the draft’s third day (Rounds 4-7)....

MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins had eight selections in this year’s NFL draft and they used five of them on defense, and three of those on nose tackles beginning with Michigan nose tackle/defensive tackle Kenneth Grant. There’s reason to question why the Dolphins didn’t draft a cornerback in the first three rounds but they did get defensive help early. Here’s a look at the Dolphins’ 2025 draft class: DT/NT Kenneth Grant, Michigan, first round (No. 13) Grant (6 foot 4, 331 pounds) is a physical run-stopper who fills a need and will be expected to be a Day One starter. He’ll line up on...
