Why I dislike Cape Coral,, Rising Canals during Hurricanes, Water Rats that come out of those canals, also Huge lizards also live in those canals, there are also scorpions, Rattle snakes and huge spiders you will encounter, this place is a nightmare, stay away

I'm 6 houses from the river in Buccaneer Bay near Tarpon point. You can keep those long rides to open water.

I am interested please send me address

Great video, always great info!Heard rumblings of development on the 3 empty corners at Pine Island rd. & Burnt Store, do you know what that might be? Can’t find any info on the city site.

Thank you for this! We live in Clearwater, 5 miles from the beach, in a mobile home. Our area is way too expensive to buy a home, 600 sq ft "fixer upper" is 250K here, no where near the coast. We were flooded the very first time by Debbie and lost at least 5K of stuff, including heirlooms. Milton did us in. Of course we had to evacuate and came home to a war zone. Roofs, florida rooms, hurricane shutters were gone. Our shutter was 4 streets away. Our deck railing was almost falling off, we lost shutters, siding, part of the roof etc. We are devastated, my car is totaled.

20-25 minutes to open water sucks.

always waiting for your market update, thanks

Thank you Dustin for the monthly report. It is helpful to see what is happening in the Cape Coral market

Building starts in the NW Cape Coral are insane! It's like a prairie dog town!

great vids, keep them coming, though a question. I keep hearing about how the insurance and now some mortgage institutions are now using the newer climate assessments to raise rates, even deny. Are we all now going to have to check this before buying? Looking at it, darn thing is ever changing.

It took you over 2-!/2 minutes to get to the point> God I hate salesmen

I live in Cape Coral too and my house is okay

Thank you for this video. I plan on moving to Cape Coral in retirement (about 3 years). This video was very informative to see what it's like before, during and after a hurricane. Glad you and your family are safe and that you received minimal damage. God Bless!

Did you say 13 ft above sea level? Hell no. How about 35 Feet.

Great report as usual! Thank you for your informative videos!

All Cape Coral homes are concrete block homes.

Homes built after 2005 are better built because of the hurricane regulations. Poured walls and roofs being connected to the foundation are better for storm winds.

Dustin, don't mislead folks, Flood Insurance is mandated by Florida law for every home either now or in the next 3 years.

Great video Dustin

Thank you for the new information about Cape Coral. requirement. Love it. Wishing you well.

No price, as usual.

I am staying at an Airbnb Jan 15-30th 2025 do you think the area will be rebuilt by then? Beaches? Are they okay. Not sure if I should cancel

Can’t imagine living in those conditions. We’ve been so Blessed .

Thank God that you survived this terrible Hurricane 🌀. I thought that the way you shared your experience, and how you prepare for an incoming storm, was very thorough, and really informative. I also thought you have a beautiful family. Your children are really adorable 😍 😊best wishes to you and your family. God bless.

Your house is very low to the water, so at some point you can expect to be flooded. I'd be getting some polyethylene and some flexseal and sprayfoam and sandbags to wrap the house. I've seen it done and it works. Be prepared.

COOL VIDEO

No thank you

After 18 yrs in SWFL we have left for higher ground. I think the difference between hurricanes from 1990's and back, is they were typically wind damage events......our hurricanes now are also creating more dangerous surge & flooding as climate warming brings higher sea levels and more moisture.

We use Water Medic too. I had the strap on for Ian and the cabinet still blew apart. I now use two straps. The one water Medic gave us for over the top and another one I wrap around the middle. We also called LCEC and had them install a surge protector on our meter. Since then we haven't lost another modem or computer board on our appliances.

Nicely done sharing your personal experience, not only riding out the storm, but the prep before and reflection on the aftermath 👍🏻

I stayed up in the NW Cape. Quick silver lake. Scary for sure. We lost power around 10PM too.

My first hurricane occurred 5 months after i moved here, Hurricane Ian. Like Dustin said not to minimize what anyone else may have gone through with Helene and Milton, but here in Mid Cape, i didnt even lose power with either one. It flickered during Milton but that was it. Hurricane Ian was awful. It hit and we were back to the stone age. No Water, No Electric, No Gas, No Restaurants, No Groceries for atleast a week. It killed everything, all the trees and even the grass went brown, I had never experienced anything like that, true natural disaster. So these two were nothing in comparison from my pov.

Great perspective of going through something like this! Thank you for the video documentation.

Your cheapest gulf access home made me think of a question about financing and required insurance. Lets say you buy a home on a lot in which the lot itself was worth the entire asking price of the property. Would the mortgage company then require you to maintain homeowner's insurance on the house since even if it burned down or was washed away, all the equity is in the land anyway? Have you had any experience with this, Dustin?

and thank you so much for also including highest off water sale!!!!

Thank you so much for including lowest gulf access home!!! :)

Thanks for the info... very exciting! Do you have any idea about what's planned for the RE development on the square of land that was recently cleared on the north side of NW 16th Terrace? Thanks!

do you have any sailboat lots? …are all these houses “ slab on grade?”. or any up on posts , keys style ?

Great info- a smart investor once said don’t buy something because its cheap- cheap crap is still crap…..with the flooding and insurance situation prices have to fall by more than 50% for the risk reward to be worthwhile

After spending so much time looking for waterfront Gulf-access homes, there seems to a missing element for my case; boat max size, depth, height (cross canal bridges) for a desired 40+ft day/weekend sport yacht. I'm taking a bit off from looking due to these frustrations, and feelings of getting my time wasted.

Very informative! Always enjoy your market reports

Great video

House construction in the NW has accelerated in the NW section, it's like prarie dogs have moved in there are do many septic humps. MAke sure you require a septic hump, you NEED that extra 8' of elevation.

I am considering putting my house on Airbnb when I’m not there. Is there a lot of demand for Airbnb in Cape Coral ?

Hallandale Beach Florida and Hollywood Florida is better.

I prefer Hallandale beach Florida beautiful city good beaches and restaurants and growing businesses and communities, and good night life, it’s more land for development and future growth.❤️☀️

1000 car washes and 1 Famous Footwear, basically Payless. No real clothing stores either, Kohl’s, Burlington, Ross and TJ Maxx and about 15 Goodwills. Driving into to Cape on Cape Coral bridge looks like Lebanon or North Korea. No treelined sidewalks to make walking and biking bearable except Kismet, North Del Prado and Veterans. No mans land. Put those wide sidewalks on Sahara Barbara and South Del Prado and on our Parkways

Glad to hear your family is safe and homes in your neighborhood did not flood. My family is safe, and only have a couple pieces of vinyl siding to slap back in place. Power just came back on 10 minutes ago!

Stay safe, and I'll be praying for you guys.
