Perfect!!! Thanks ❤
I have heard there are condos in Florida the need millions in structural upgrades due to new laws passed after the condo collapse in Miami. That and hurricanes are why I will never buy property in Florida.
Yep that's happening in Miami especially.

605+100+300+150 = 1155 2866 + 1155 = 4021 still a lot of money.
We pay $1,800.00 PER MONTH for our beach condo’s HOA in Naples.
Your being fleeced, NO! HOA is worth that!
Imagine taking 15 minutes Jesus Christ who cares. ITS OBVIOUSLY NOT CHEAP. STOP BEING POOR
I lived in Naples from 1979-1985 and loved it mostly because I met my husband there, married there, bought my first home there and had our first child there. Because of the way things are now with crowds, heat, high tax snd insurance expenses, over-building and climate change and storms, we will never go back except to visit.
$4000+ a month just for housing? And it goes up from there with ever increasing insurance, property taxes and potential special assessments. For a condo. The median income for retirees is around $47K; the average is around $97K. Factoring in 12% for federal income taxes, the monthly numbers come in at $3400 and $7000, respectively. I believe there will be a “time of reckoning” for FL real estate. No financially responsible person would be comfortable spending this much on housing. It will be interesting to see where the market goes.
Barrett 👋: Just saw something where certain Florida municipalities (for example: North Palm Beach, Sarasota...) now have (1) Vacant house registration fees, and the SOBs charge renewal fees annually too (WTF !?) and; (2) sometimes towns also have graduated property tax rates for "absentee" (snowbird) owners ⁉ Do you see much of this crap where you are ⁉ Its enough to just make me a lifelong renter 😡... All these headaches are starting to make "van life" look attractive (I cant believe I just said that !)....Or, just get a cheap tiny storage place to keep mattress, kitchen stuff, as you "bounce" around to a treadmil-lifestyle of perpetual rentals !?
I know someone in a beautiful Bonita Springs 2 bed/2ba condo that just yesterday was notified they had their HOA raised to 16K a year.. It was previously 12 or 14K ? a year... Granted they have a dual view of ocean and back but to me that is a hideously frightening cost "just for the views".... And, they could also still get hit with a special assessments on top of that 😱 ⁉ I prefer to be in an "in-land" condo like your helpful example shared. 💪 Happy to "drive to the view" if and when I want it😊
If they have a view of the bay and a view of the Gulf their insurance probably went so high for the condominium complex that they had to raise it that much. That's what's happening to people. They would also be at the highest number for flood insurance as well.
@@Connect2Florida You are a GENIUS, I literally just spoke to them and you are exactly correct 💪... They have that "dual view" paradise and indeed it was their insurance as the primary escalation driver for the increased rates... You know your "stuff...' 😉 While I can afford anything but it just goes against my grain to BURN money like that... Rather leave it to my kids...
well, what is the monthly income needed to keep a comfortable life style?
I would guess that is highly factually dependent ? Do you want to eat out at over-priced, show-off restaurants and bars regularly, and pay stupidly high over-priced checks for artery-clogging food ? Pursuing a "look-at-me" lifestyle ? Like many in Naples do 🤣... Or, do you hit a nice grocery store for healthy inexpensive fruits and vegetables ? The re-sale stores in Naples often have Caligula-esque brand new designer clothing for as little as 5-15 dollars due to the rich fools and their buying/discarding habits... What do you consider "comfortable" ?
@@LJ-jq8og living without worries, being able to afford the grocery bills maybe?
@@ms_cheeseandcrackers Well, remember you do have "control" over what you spend... Its just a matter of being "smart" about it... Not always easy but DOABLE... 😊
@@ms_cheeseandcrackers BTW Forget any coastal areas as that is wasting money for the beach... Go inland and save a fortune...
On furniture front: you can often find or get BETTER nicer furniture at the Restore than all the modern crap in hideous taste... You just need to be patient... People in Naples area are so rich/spoiled the stuff they "dump" at the stores is AMAZING...
FYI Re the Studs (interior) insurance issue... My USAA insurance rep warned me to never use/make claims on that insurance, ie., make claims on that for things like theft of laptops, etc. as your rates will go through the roof... (Pun intended...) after that ! Kind of scary how life works, she was adamant about that... I would only want liability insurance for some fraudulent or spastic worker injuries/claims..
🤔 MMMm Barrett... Just think.. If you became a Pastor (good for biz development...) you would be "Pastor Pastor..." 😊
😊 HIT THE LIKE BUTTON 😊
Wow ! Great Topic 💪❤ Thanks 🙏
Glad you liked it!
It’s easy on single family home cost. Just double it! LOL
Noooooo! lol
Southwest Florida is a conservative state because they are the smartest and wealthiest. No one wants four more years of the democratic clowns? They have methodically brought us down. Are you better off now than four years ago? HELL NO.!
If you are talking Trump, then you are talking politics. He is the best President ever.
If Trump straightens out this illegal immigrants problem in Cities.And I believe he wiil,May slow the exit out of those cities.
Self deport.
I lived in Naples 1978-80 I enjoyed living there
lived in and around naples from 1967 to 2018 school, marrige children finally decided to leave after retirement still in florida, but now that the state has turned red, fascist , me me me incharge. well be looking to go elsewhere. my cardiologist had me on some prescription that nearly killed me, seen by new set of meds has taken 6 years to get better glad I moved.
I can't trust anyone who recommends a reverse mortgage for any reason. And if you can't pay cash for a house, a car, or a candy bar, then you can't afford it.
Weird comment. I do not now nor have I ever recommended a reverse mortgage.
TRAFFIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Activasin.home.las.vegas2024.data/1.jan.❤
I moved to Naples from New England almost a decade ago, best move I’ve ever made. Absolutely love it here!
Yes, please trump fans, buy real estate in SW Florida. But don't expect the government to bail you out when your properties become worthless because they are in flood zones and can't be insured. Or when the next monster hurricane comes along and wipes you out. Oh, wait. DeSantis says there is no such thing as climate change. Never mind.
Great videos and info! Home prices are ridiculous. Historically what goes up must come down. Soon as that happens I'm be ready to strike lol
So if I understood you correctly getting Trump elected will cause many sellers to list their homes creating excessive inventory creating a buyer's market, especially in south west Florida.
Did you watch the video? I explained this in detail. We already have too many homes on the market but we had no buyer interest. Now we have sellers listing their homes for the reasons I mentioned. So yes between the already high inventory and now the inventory growing to a number we haven't seen in recent years going back as many as 25 years, Yes it will cause a buyer's market. The good thing is there's actually buyer interest now because there is buyer confidence. Hope that helps.
Stop building on flood zones
Thank you so much for all your work
I'm definitely a conservative, Trump fan, here in Northwest Florida.
Best President ever.
Trump isn’t great but his policies make a lot more sense than Harris’s. FL to boom again at some point!
Has Donny ever fixed anything? I expect his terrible tariff plan will make things worse. Never forget our worse recession occurred during Republican Administrations. Democrats fix thing Republican break them, Check out their track record.
Are you a legal citizen? Were you living in the United States when Donald Trump was President last time? Are you a productive member of society? Probably not or you would know that he is the best president we have ever had.
Unfortunately I think the die has been cast long ago for Florida. Desantis and his legislators have failed miserably with their greed, mismanagement, and corruption. Little will likely change either way at the state level with Trump policy on the federal level for Florida.
I think Conservatives are now the party of “live and let live.” Today’s Conservatives are the Liberals of 30 years ago! If most Floridians vote red it’s because they stay in their own lane, and as long as their neighbors do the same, life will be good. ✌🏻
The only counties in FL that went Democrat were Gadsden, Leon, Alachua, Broward, and Palm Beach. None of those are in southwest Florida.
Depends....if your place got totally destroyed, what would you do?
Why are prices in Estero, Naples, Bonita Springs too high for even new construction? We have been looking and don’t see any great deals yet
Great video ❤Thanks Barrett. Although didn’t vote (a family member passed away and I was out of town) I supported a change in leadership and a different administration. Who knows where the housing market will go. My gut tells me it’s going to be vastly different from state to state( Florida will suffer). I closed on my West Palm Beach home in July and am now renting in a resort style complex which I’m loving. With the proceeds of the sale of my home in an interest baring account, add taxes, insurance and HOA I’m just about breaking even. But the best part is the freedom to get up and move whenever I’d like. I plan on buying another home someday, but right now, I’m just enjoying the freedom.
Do not expect miracles from Trump. He has been handed the biggest leaky bag of sh*t ever dumped on an incoming U.S. president; the fires are burning everywhere and a lot of bad things are already baked in the cake. The U.S. economy is like a supertanker: you can push the helm hard over and ring for full astern, but a change in course will take time. For housing, the prices have to come down. That is the only real 'fix'. When the market corrects, that process will accelerate, and what went up the fastest will come down the hardest. This will be tricky to navigate, but your suggestions thus far are good.
I am an 82 year old Conservative Republican. I should have bought in early 2020 but I didn't. Although I am a Republican, I totally despise Trump. In my opinion, he is horrible for the country and the world. Harris was very bad also, but I believe Trump is worse. Right now we have a one party system, Republican: President, Senate, House, and Supreme Court. Have we been converted into a Communist Country over night?
I love you. You are trustworthy. And you are down to earth and i love your makeup and look.
I wouldn't recommend buying any home in Florida right now. Wait a year if you can. Prices are falling in most major markets here. There is a glut of inventory in SW Florida, and the condo market statewide is depressed. The luxury home market is in freefall. It's a mess.
You are just wrong and foolish for propagating harmful myths.
lol, Naples is Paradise....it's great here. Lost my job over a year ago with immediate job offers, said no thank you as not leaving here. as for healthcare, if you don't like concierge, shop around. It's been so much better here than what we had in MD around Annapolis. And not sure where all the seasonal talk is coming from. Seen how many schools are here? It's pretty fulltime and younger than what people claim. And for cost of living, relative.....it's less here for me from where I moved from.
Love living in Lakeland! Great family centered city.
You need to explain wood frame better. 99.9% of homes are wood frame in FL.
