Heres my list after owning a home in Fla for 12 years.. Get ready to play musical chairs with Insurance companies.. You will need to re-shop your home owners policy ATLEAST every 2 or 3 years to maintain a decent rate.... The speed limit is just a recommendation. Nobody abides by it.. Its either 10-15MPH below or 100 MPH ++ Also get used to having to deal with different "Attitudes" ..Being a "Mid Westerner " I have noticed quite a few things that are "normal" to some and outrageous to others.. Watch out for Northeasterners as alot..Not all... tend to be very aggressive/rude. In my observations.. generally speaking when there is drama/argument/fight.. There is generally 1 person involved either from New York/New Jersey OR BOSTON.. Just what I have noticed... OH Yeah.. I almost forgot...You need a "permit" to breathe, blink, crap or just about anything that has to do with changing your property..No State sales tax..They get $$$ thru permit fees..lol...Just my .02...
In Florida rains,but sometimes it's only for an hour or 2, the tax exception, even if you don't have the house as a you primer residence, as a senior is a 25% in you property, taxes I live in Palm Coast, 25 minutes,from St Augustine & 25, from Daytona, it's not bad at all, comparing, Chicago,New Yor,California, ( high crime,very expensive to live) but ,today's, is a crazy world, & many states are suffering the consequences of higher cost of living, & inflation & security!
Something I noticed in my visits to Florida and specially women from other states need to really be aware of and nobody talks about this is "the gorgeous, hot women" that live there, specially coming from Colombia and Venezuela. I've never seen so many in one place
Hey Katrin, great video! Thanks for sharing. I was curious about your advice....If you had to choose between Boca or Naples for (Beaches, nice neighborhoods, restaurants, single professionals) which would you pick personally to live in?
Oh boy, I probably would choose Naples on the West Coast because I prefer this side. But Boca is also great and if you are single and younger, you may prefer Boca (avg age about 48 vs 65 in Naples). But why not visit both places and get a feel assuming you have not been there yet?
If someone is moving to Florida, remember to leave any leftist policies you have supported that ruined where you are leaving. And our tropical weather is tough to get used too but once you do. It's great.
@@halcyonoutlander2105 asinine. Such a blatant diversion of facts and reality. You have leftists milking the system in all states. The reality is Republicans work more and pay more for these welfare systems than the left.
@@madusonkeeper who cares that you find my comment offensive? You could have skipped over it. But I offended you with facts. Then you deserved it. Because leftism is just asinine mental illness.
I came from STL. Some winters nothing, others ice storms that were horrible. Some summers not enough heat to warm the pools, others so hot the pools were like hot tubs. The 2 deadliest tornadoes ever recorded were in Missouri. But the salaries versus the cost of living were excellent. When I went to check on home owners insurance in Florida it was equivalent to Missouri. I said how's that, they said Missouri is the tornado state. I love Florida but the job thing, hell no.
Florida is unlike any other place in America.

If you're going to come to Florida you better have enough money to stay out of the Heat and away from the elements or even enough money so you don't have to work because to be around so many different cultures and diversified mentalities will make one take on habits in life whether it is materialism or substance abuse to make up for the lack of life that is actually here. While the rapper Pitbull is the ambassador of Miami and much of South Florida and its politicians condone Thug activity and Corruption, many old people in their family still feel like they dominate this place even though they never come out of their houses hardly or the bubble they live in.

If you have a job here someone else will come along that fits the criteria of the ego and mentality of your supervisor and you will be replaced if you don't do drugs with them or play the game of corruption for personal selfish reasons as this place is a Badland where everybody is out for themselves pretty much. Keep in mind that people don't have to weather through the seasons here so it's a very Shifty transient place where people can change their clothes in a gas station and emerge as a different person like women do when they prostitute around here even though they look like they could be in a penthouse Ballroom one minute and on the street corner in Pompano on Dixie Highway the next. ..... and want a place like Pompano Beach it's certainly beautiful there is more of a percentage of it that is disgusting and rundown and vagrant. The fire ants fleas and termites and roaches here are as bad as the hurricane season's that every year we have to deal with and scramble to remedy in competition with everything else that is aimed to oppress down here.

Fire ants, pythons, crocodiles, iguanas agressive chickens in key west! Hurricanes!!! Im afraid of Florida;))
Also, if buying a condo….get one on the top floor……much less bugs from creeping along the ground.
good point...and no footsteps above you...
I appreciate your input. I did not know about the love bugs and the impact they can have on paint.
I am glad you got value out of it. Yeah, they can be a real pain in the butt :).
I love Wisconsin. The change of seasons.
I enjoy vacationing in it but do prefer the 2 FL seasons. But yes, the fall up North is beautiful.
Wow! These are some great tips. The lovebugs and the flood insurance parts I wasn't aware of at all. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊

Me too ✋️
I live in South East Georgia not far from the Florida line and we have love bugs at the same time and tropical weather like you described
Lovebugs were not too bad this year where I live in Sarasota...how about for you all?

Are any of the good pest control companies using natural products, or is everything with toxic to humans chemicals?
Hi there, there are many natural pest control companies in FL. Where I live...we have plenty to choose from.
(1:35) Washing a car with a sponge will also damage its paint.
Agree
When driving in our summer-rain, DO NOT keep driving with your emergency flashers on.
It will cause accidents, and is illegal. Thank you.
What exactly does homestead exemption mean ?
It is a tax exemption of up to $50k, but one needs to apply for it and other criteria need to be met.
Does it mean you have to live on a working farm or is by acreage ?
