Question 5 • FL-2100310-United States History

Which explains why houses were sitting empty at the end of Florida’s land boom?

Answer
A
There was a lack of buyers for the many developments.
B
There was a surplus of buyers for the many developments.
C
Most houses were not for sale and were taken off the market.
D
House sales were stopped due to poor construction.

Explanation

During Florida’s land boom, developers built many homes and subdivisions in expectation of continued demand. When the boom ended, buyers were no longer plentiful enough to purchase all the properties, so houses remained empty. This matches the choice that there was a lack of buyers for the many developments.
