Flor de Cuba surprised her followers by revealing that she is about to achieve one of her biggest goals since emigrating to the United States: buying a house in Miami valued at around one million dollars.

In a video shared on her social media, the influencer mentioned that she has just finalized the contract to acquire the property, an important step that comes just a year and three months after arriving in the country. As she explained, this achievement comes shortly after having also purchased her first rental property in Punta Cana, an investment she made just a few weeks ago.

Flor remembered that her beginnings in the United States were not easy. “I arrived in this country with 200 dollars,” she recounted, explaining that she even had to take the bus and sleep on mattresses on the floor while starting her new life. “The day I said goodbye to my children in Cuba, I promised them that this sacrifice would be worth it and that I would change their future forever,” she stated.

The influencer also clarified that all her income currently comes from social media, the platform through which she has built her personal project. During her process of buying a house, she explained that some people questioned how she could do it without having two years of tax history in the United States yet.

In response to those doubts, he assured that the purchase is based not on his taxes but on the income reflected in his bank account, and that his real estate agent found a way for him to complete the transaction.

Flor de Cuba also announced that her followers will be able to accompany her in the process, as she will share content about her search for a future home in Miami. “I’m tired of throwing my money away on rent. It’s time to build my own legacy,” she said.

The video has generated numerous reactions on social media, where many followers congratulate her and highlight her story of overcoming challenges. “You are a Cuban pride,” “You are a role model,” and “May God continue to bless your achievements” are some of the messages that are repeated among the comments.
