You need to do your own research. I'm sure things are different in Florida. We currently have a block home. Our previous home had vinyl siding and the siding was 40 years old. Rain, snow gloom of night for 40 years it was not cracked etc.
Able to stand up to winds etc. The building code was changed about 2011 where a home need to be designed to stand up to higher winds. Others mentioned a roof blowing off a block home.
On a more recently built home the code demands the roof be better secured. For people who have added stuff like a solar pool heater, solar collector, dish antenna-I wonder about the effect-the liability etc.

If you want to work with an agent that won't tell you which is better and will show you only what you want to see contact Beth Pope, great lady, great agent.
