Agreed! 😂 We're talking about lifestyle

Thanks for watching! 😊

You got that right! 😊

Everyone take note!

@@maestroinitiative4509 This is a very generalized and ignorant comment.

@Gati1313 you wish it was ignorant, but the states facts are what they are... 🤡 Clown...your asz is publicizing. A state that has historically and to this date deprived anyone who has caught a case their.... Check your education before you call me out fool

You publicizing a state for people of non-color, so just say that ..

Beautiful area! We hope you enjoy for many years to come!! 😊

You made the right choice! 😊

You’re welcome, we’re happy to share the truth! 😂

@jimp3878 We mention this in many of our videos! However, it really depends on your location and whether your home is Gold Fortified or not. On average, a new Gold Fortified home will cost around $1,500 a year, while a non-Gold Fortified home could be about double that. As for flood insurance, it’s only required if you choose a home in a flood plain, which isn’t very common unless you’re on or near the water.

@ thank you for taking the time to respond. I appreciate your expertise

@@jimp3878 of course! Let us know when you're ready to start and we'll get to work!! 😊

We get this request almost daily 😂

We wanted to highlight some of the most popular areas connected to Mobile to give you a better idea of why it’s such an amazing central location. 😉

We'll be ready to help when you hear the good news!

That's true, but not everyone prioritizes good schools so it really depends on their individual needs.

Who in there right mind does not prioritize good schools? Also super schools help real estate values!

Thanks for watching! We'll be here when you need us 😉

& we cant wait!

@@meganstevens3318Ho ins depends on a lot of different factors.. It'll depend on the home’s location, age, condition, updates, etc. Properties in flood zones or high-risk areas will obviously require additional coverage, raising premiums, no matter which area you're in and updated features like a new roof, plumbing, electrical and HVAC will reduce costs. Then you have gold fortified homes or homes with Silver or Bronze standards that'll significantly lower premiums due to their storm resilience. Even details like water heater placement, like in the attic impact rates by reducing water damage risks. Ultimately, insurance costs are shaped by the home’s specific risk profile and its ability to withstand potential hazards. If you want to learn more, reach out anytime!

@LivingInLowerAlabama thanks for the video, my wife and I are planning on moving to Alabama's south in a couple of years and Foley is also on our list for being close to the beach but still affordable.

We've got this: ua-cam.com/video/SMkz-ToJ6CE/v-deo.html

@@LarryGene-f9ithat's the thumbnail 😂 😂 😂

Thank you so much! Gglad you’re enjoying Ono, it’s such a peaceful and beautiful place to call home. I hear you about Florida..the nonstop hustle and heat can definitely wear you out. Getting some cooler weather and a slower pace is one of the best parts of living here. Welcome to the Gulf Coast life! It really is something special 😊

Happy to help! ❤️

You’re not alone in feeling that way. Foley has definitely grown a lot over the past decade, and with growth comes more traffic and a busier vibe. That said, it’s great that there are still smaller, quieter towns nearby, like Spanish Fort, Daphne, Loxley, Robertsdale, and Theodore, where you can find that small-town charm. Each of these areas has its own unique feel, so it’s nice to have options depending on what you’re looking for. Change isn’t always easy, but I like to think it’s a sign of the area’s popularity and appeal!

HNY! I wouldn't move here based on our public transportation. There are many things going for us but that isn't one of them

Great observation! Baldwin County often gets a lot of attention in our videos because so many people are drawn to its small-town charm, coastal living, and unique communities. We all know Mobile is the powerhouse nearby, with incredible history, culture, and opportunities. It’s our hub that connects to so many great surrounding areas, which is part of what makes it such a valuable location. Thanks for watching! 😊

Stay where you're at. Tony loves it there, if you want to make everything racist you're definitely a liberal, so stay in whatever liberal area you're from.

Amen to that.​@@cmart7773

I've noticed that larger cities often seem more divisive and hateful compared to here in Alabama. People here are welcoming and friendly but they value the way things are and aren't particularly open to outsiders wanting to change it. Honestly, I can't blame em..we’ve got a really good thing goin here!

Off-beach Gulf Shores apartments rent for $1,800-$3,000/month with prices around $200K-$350K. They offer steady demand, lower costs, and about 6-8% ROI.

Can't argue with that! Thanks for watching 😊

To some, absolutely! But... It's all about perspective and how you choose to see the beauty in front of you. We on the other hand love it here!!

@@farrelllambeth1707 okay

Thanks for the rant, definitely entertaining! You’re not wrong about a few things, but let’s pump the brakes a bit. The I-10 Bayway project? could be a mess in the making, but that’s what happens when people actually want to move here. You also never know! What if it works out and is a great success?! Either way, growth comes with headaches and traffic’s one of them, but at least we’re not sitting on I-275 in Tampa wondering if we’ll age a decade before we move a mile. As for sewage overflows, come on.. how often do you really see that? It is not like the streets are turning into brown lagoons. If it's a concern, reaching out to the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation is a good start and will probably do more than venting in UA-cam comments. And hurricanes? That is just coastal living! Most of us prep ahead and laugh at the chaos of last minute panic Kmart shoppers (it's been awhile since we've seen one of those). It's just part of the charm around here! Now taxes and tolls, yeah we are not fans either!! But... after living in Illinois this is a walk in the park. Montgomery may keep us on our toes, but Baldwin County delivers where it matters most n that's great communities, natural beauty and a lifestyle that is tough to beat! Bottom line: Baldwin County isn’t perfect, but for those of us who love it, it’s worth dealing with these small quirks. Personally, I think @miconn69 loves it here and is just trying to scare off potential newcomers to keep the charm intact! Well played, my friend, well played! 👏😂

LOL, you caught me on a bad day, BUT.... If you live here, I highly recommend that you follow Mobile Baykeeper. They are a great organization that tracks contaminants like wastewater and sewage spills into the Bay. While yes, I'll agree that the streets are not flowing with brown lagoons, I would highly recommend scraping the brown stuff off any fish caught in Mobile Bay before eating it. That's just me. As a member of a citizens advocate group for government accountability, there have been attempts to address the issue of the overwhelming of critical infrastructure due to overgrowth in the county. I have personally tried addressing this with my county commissioner and he stated that they would not be addressing sewage overflows with the municipalities because it could damage the working relationship between the county and the citt utilities in question. They pretty much just look the other way and hope it will eventually improve. You mention the differences between living here and living in Illinois. Well of course Baldwin County is a better place to live. Just because you are used to the high taxes and tolls up there doesnt mean we want them down here though. I do love Baldwin County and I hate seeing what has happened to it with the unbridaled growth. I've been here most of my life. I went school here and I raised a family here. My children are raising my grandchildren here and one day they will inherit land that was settled and homesteaded by their great-great-great grandparents (who now rest in a family cemetary 1/4 mile from our home). I know that growth is inevitable, but too much too fast is not good for the infrastructure or environment. ✌️😉

If things are truly as bad as you claim, why haven’t you moved? Calling us liars simply because we share our opinions seems unnecessary. Bless your heart..

@@LivingInLowerAlabama I never said AL was bad, just not for everyone. AL real estate is going up, and no one appreciates that. I am 68, have lived in AL my whole life and have seen people come and go, mostly because they will never really fit in. Now, Alabama locals are gracious up to a point but dont really want people moving to their towns especially if they are hardcore liberal, mostly because of the past several years of dealing with rude people and real estate agents. We will proudly wave the Trump signs.

Bless your heart! ❤️

@@FrankD71864 Amen! Say it again for people in the back 😂

Avoid Mobile city. Live in Baldwin County. Fairhope , Gulf Shores, Orange Beach. Mobile has terrible school system which affects property values.

I would!

You'd be surprised by how many people call us on a weekly basis and had no idea we have beaches 😂

I'm from Jersey, the cats out the bag lol

Thanks bud!

Very true!

@@millisapedersen-edinarealty378 thanks Millisa! 😉

We love your comment and perspective! It’s clear you have a lot of insight into the housing situation here. We also moved here as blue-collar workers back in 2016 and bought a house right away. Since then, we’ve moved several times, and we don’t make excuses for our situation. If we want something, we simply adapt and change what we need to do to achieve it. That being said, you're right-many average people tend to settle for mediocrity and come up with excuses. However, those who are willing to work hard can definitely make things happen. We've actually helped several construction and retail workers find homes here, thanks to the affordable prices and low interest rates available. It’s important to remember that homeownership is achievable with the right mindset and resources. Taking the initiative to explore different financing options, understanding the local market, and being open to various neighborhoods can make a significant difference. By seeking support from the top relocation team in ALL of Lower Alabama, who understands the needs of blue-collar workers, you can gain valuable insights and guidance too. Ultimately, it's all about determination and finding the right opportunities!

@@LivingInLowerAlabamathat’s just realtor speak to sell homes. It’s not based in reality.

​@@mimig123 The reality is affordability can be a real challenge in Foley. However compared to big cities like LA, NY, CHI... Foley still offers more accessible homeownership opportunities. Rising prices show growth, but they also point to the need for more affordable housing options. There are programs for first-time buyers and developments for all budgets that can help. Ask us about them or watch more of our videos...we’re happy to share info and help, even if we don’t work together! We’re not here to sell you anything, just to share what we know. Foley should be a place where everyone can thrive and that’s what we’re working toward. A little positivity goes a long way!

Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching and your support, JAY!!

Yes, of course! Lower Alabama is incredibly dog friendly with lots of activities, pet-friendly beaches (not all of them), and people who love dogs as much as we do. We have no kill shelters like the Baldwin County Humane Society and others dedicated to animal welfare. Daphne just built a brand new $4 million shelter with modern amenities, plenty of space for dogs and cats and outdoor play areas. It's a fantastic addition to the community. We’re happy to do a phone consultation anytime, even if your home isn’t under contract yet. Just set up a time through calendly.com/yourrealestatefam and we'll go over all your options. Looking forward to chatting!

Thanks for watching! We're here for you 😉

January on the Alabama Gulf Coast is an excellent time to visit the beach. The comfortable temperature and fewer crowds make it the ultimate vacation destination, plus plenty of things to do. The monthly average temperature is 50.5°, with daily highs near 57.5° and lows near 43.5°, and the water temperature averages 55°. www.gulfshores.com/plan/weather#:~:text=The%20average%20temperature%20in%20Gulf%20Shores%20%26%20Orange%20Beach%20is%2068.6,as%20cold%20as%2050%C2%B0
