2A — Hot-Humid

Typical housing stock: 1990s–2010s (suburban growth boom) — Concrete block single-family, newer stucco, planned communities

Orlando shares Tampa's lightning risk and hurricane exposure. The sandy soil means different foundation dynamics than clay — sinkholes are the primary concern. Year-round A/C and persistent humidity make mold prevention a constant task. Afternoon thunderstorms are nearly daily in summer.

Local labor market: Orlando labor rates are near national average. Florida licensing requirements apply. Post-hurricane demand spikes affect the entire Central Florida market.

Seasonal maintenance tip Install surge protection for lightning. Run bathroom exhaust fans during and after showers. Hurricane prep by June 1.
