@@williefrazier8469 I’m not sure if they’re adding new stores but they’re definitely re-doing one of the parking structures over there and change the parking lot on the north side too
@@davidestick9936 That's how it ends up happening too. I used to do the same thing. I was detailing cars in the middle of winter like now, looking out the window daydreaming of palm trees and the beach and here I am
This TOUR video is very helpful as you have a complete conversation about the situation in a single neighborhood.... like Crime rate, Good spot, Price range, Parking info, Buy/rent, HOA fee, ....tricks, complaints, local jokes, gossips, recommendations plus some history. You can create a series of videos for each neighborhood in the Miami beach !! then all people will love to check out your series before moving here. Plus I like that you share the best spot in your opinion from a sightseeing perspective !!!
I hope at least some of that comes through in the visual and audio of this video. I'm really happy to share it with you and hopefully brighten up your day even if it's just a little bit 😊
Your walking tours are absolutely the BEST ones! Great commentary & everything. I love how you notice trees, plants, iguanas, etc along your routes. It's all so good! Makes us feel like we're right there actually hanging out walking with you! Love it!
Thanks Linda! I like to pay attention to my surroundings as much as I can during these walks and just react. If you feel like you're there with me, then I must be doing it right!
My daughter is graduating this May with her masters in speech and language pathology . God bless her and all of our graduates at every level . Anyway , she plays the walking tours in the background too . Low volume of course . It’s beautiful and helps our brains make feel better chemical according to her .💚🧡💙💛
Stumbled on your page randomly when I couldn’t sleep and just want to tell you how much I enjoy them. Just got back from a trip to Miami Beach and these walking tours make me feel like I’m there. I definitely am looking to relocate soon and you really are helping me narrow my choices. You have great things to say and have a soft, soothing voice that sometimes when I can’t sleep I put on your walking tours 😉. New subscriber for sure! Keep these up. Hugs from NYC.
Amazing walk 🧡 thanks again for the company too ! I like the walk about a precisely because I’m not alone . My dad and I traveled together . We walked and talked and this is good . 💙
It really is the Beverly hills of Miami...thank you Michael for the beautiful tour...I hope more tour are coming in the future ... appreciate it.. Sunshine State rules....😎🌞
A house tour in the gated community at 12:30 sounds good plus the narration is awesome. I've seen other walking tours videos in Miami with no narration and like you said it makes the video boring.
Thank you Dan! Its good to know that! When I made the first walking tour, I was getting mixed results and feedback, but now after doing several it looks like they're here to staty
I’ve watched quite a few videos of that other channel that shows the boats going in and out. Some pretty crazy stuff, both in terms of the boats themselves (multi-million $ yachts) and in terms of the folly of taking some of the small boats out in rough weather. But you can learn a lot too; like matching the speed of the boat to the movement of the swells. Great stuff, but after you’ve seen 20 such videos you’ve seen it all.
Another great walking tour!! I ❤️ these! Your voice and narration make it so educational and enjoyable to watch. When I need an escape I watch these! Love your walking tours of Miami. Can you please do more of South Beach? 🙏
You're welcome Rob! Its actually one of my favorite type of videos to make as it give me chance to just walk through the area and enjoy it and share it with you😎
This is such a great video, Michael! Thank you for making it. I had requested it if you, and you delivered. Shows you care about the people who watch your channel. You really listen. Anyway, I had always wanted to see Bal Harbour this way. I appreciate your taking the time to walk us through the area and share info with us, as you walked. I don’t like those videos where people walk, but don’t add any commentary. A missed opportunity to share history and other information on their part.
Im not in that income bracket, but I stayed at a 5 star hotel in Bal Harbor...back in the 90s. Its amazing. 94 degrees in Miami does not feel like 94 degrees in Philadelphia. I need to return...for good.
Also if Mike doesnt mind, there is a channel called Haulover Boats which broadcasts from the inlet everyday and is live sometimes. Im actually surprised they werent there in this video filming
New subscriber here! I love your neighborhood videos. I’m seriously considering a move to Miami and your videos are very helpful. Please tour Coconut Grove, Belle Meade and Coral Gables as well. Keep up the good work!
My dad and I always bring up the the time back in the early 70's when we went out on our boat and how choppy it was going under the Haulover Brdige. It was one of my scariest rides in our boat ever, and my dad didn't admit it back then but he was scared out of his mind also, and will admit that now.. It is supposedly the most dangerous inlet in Fl. but has the most boat traffic in the United States.
Is the beach in front of the big buildings public access there? Never thought about bal harbour, but after this walking tour, it looks more interesting. I haven’t been to bal Harbour shops in probably 8 years! It’s always nice to walk around there. Cool video, thanks!
Yes it is public and you can park right in that area under the bridge no problem and go to the beach. I would definitely consider living in Bal Harbour 👌 it’s a fantastic area and really not so expensive for the quality of life there
I live in NYC & I finally convinced my bf to move to Florida with me in the next few years. I’m over snow ! Florida is so beautiful, I’ve been twice. Do you mind doing some videos on Tampa bay ? I’m gravitating towards Tampa
There are probably too many to name in a comment but a couple I would say is the gulf waters tend to be not as nice as the Atlantic waters. Also, most of the west coast is geared towards retirees, whereas that is less the case on the east coast. I did some vids a while back showing the different oceanfront condos for sale on both coasts, I recommend watching those videos to see what both sides have to offer 👍
Looks like South Orange County CA, took a walk through Bal Harbour in February of 2020. Nice area, one of the things I like about Floriduh is that the sky is always blue. Everything is so bright, colors are really vibrant. Unlike SoCal where we have days when smog is so strong it’s like fog. Bruh yes do Sunny Isles and finish the bid like here on the pier on a sunny bright day 😊😊😊
It seems like that’s down in the keys so that probably won’t happen anytime soon as there’s so much for me to cover right in this area but maybe eventually
Hey Branden I don't have a video on that topic. In general though you're usually have to pay cash for the place you can obtain financing for usually 40 to 50% down
Thanks! I haven’t considered that but I think it’s better to do it like this because the quality will be much higher. If I do them live it’s going to be a low quality mobile stream
They don't exist. To get into a house in Bal Habour you're looking at $3 million! And there are never that many for sale, since there are not too many Houses to begin with
Not sure if anyone answered the question. I live in a co op in NYC. We get financing here. This unit I live in was 479k. Def can’t pay for that cash lol
I can’t remember it’s been a while since I published this but I remember the question about the co-op financing. I have heard that you can get financing for in NYC but for some reason here in Florida most lenders won’t touch them
@@MichaelBordenaro yes, that’s what you said in the video. You were curious about NYC and said Miami area doesn’t like to finance so you gotta buy cash. Here in NY the banks lend money for co ops. Never been an issue as far as I know
@@UrbanBDKNY bro I see you everywhere!!! Did you move to Florida yet? I did 🥳🥳🥳 tomorrow will mark one month since I’ve been living in sunny beautiful Miami🥳🥳🥳🥳

@@MichaelBordenaro oh OK thanks are going to do a video on coconut Grove and Miami shore and Pinecrest neighborhood
Hi from Long Island. We loved Carpaccio when we had lunch the last time we visited. Great for people watching too.
Hello Andrew! Yes we love it too, great for everything, food people watching, the service is great, highly recommend 👌
I love the soothing, meditative sound of the ocean that plays nonstop down there. Miami Beach is such a therapeutic experience
Yes the ocean is a very soothing sound. Its good to just stop and listen to it sometimes
@@MichaelBordenaro absolutely bro, I already envision myself taking sunrise and sunset walks doing just that

Love the walking tours. Great idea. Nicely done, holds one attention yet not too long.
Thanks Clover! I will continue to do them. My next one should be out next week👌

Great video, videos like this are my favorite when you walk and narrate. Thanks Mike.

I didnt know much about Bal Harbour it looks really great. Thank you Michael
It is great one of my favorites in the area for sure!
I live in Michigan. Love your videos. Extremely informative. I’m thinking of buying in area.
Thanks OV! Glad I could give you some local insight
Wishing I was there right now as I'm buried in 2 ft of snow in New Jersey FML ☹️
I hear you Paul, I remember that feeling well!
Just beautiful.
Yes it is!
Great video man
Thank you!!
Worth Avenue Palm Beach is the Rodeo Drive of Florida lol
I have to visit that one day
Wow! I really loved the place! Florida is such a nice place! Thank you so much for sharing this! :)
I love it too! Bal Harbour is one of my favorite spots down in Miami. Glad you enjoyed 😀
Bal Harbour, sunny island, aventura, coconut grove, bricklle and coral gables.
The best most gorgeous areas of Miami

Great walking tour video Michael! I knew you would do this after the Surfside one! Looked like a beautiful day for walking in Bal Harbour! 😎🌞👏🏾
Thanks Ralphie! Yes I am going to cover my immediate area before going further and further away. Still lots to see around here 👌

Thank you 😀 That is so nice to hear, and yes the next one will be again in south beach👍
Great video. In the next one for Bal Harbour, can you walk down the east side of Collins and show the fountains in front of the condos?
I might do that, glad you enjoyed!
Thinking about moving here
Its a great little slice of Miami, without the madness
Mic sounds great! I wasn’t sure if it was a voice over because there wasn’t any wind noise.
Thank you Lindsey yes it is an excellent microphone. By far the best one I have used for the iPhone
Thank you Michael 👍🏻. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into bringing these walking tours to us. I enjoy every one of them
You're welcome Rob! Its actually one of my favorite type of videos to make as it give me chance to just walk through the area and enjoy it and share it with you😎
Great video
Thanks Criss!
Great video. I know you live on the beach, but if you can do a walking tour of Miami (Coral Cables, Coconut Grove) Brickell as well. Thank You
Thank you Hector, eventually I will make it to all those places👌 So much to shoot 😀
Wow, and we have snow and ice. Lol 32 degrees in the D.C. Area. The main reason I want to relocate.
I know that feeling very well. This is the time of year when Florida starts sounding like paradise
Very Cool.

Those big beautiful trees are always great until the hurricane comes through😏
Totally! Some of them do go down sadly
Also if Mike doesnt mind, there is a channel called Haulover Boats which broadcasts from the inlet everyday and is live sometimes. Im actually surprised they werent there in this video filming

Right on! I know that feeling well. I havent been to Tampa in a bit, but hopefully later this year I plan on getting around to more areas in FL 👍
Great. Do a fund raiser and get yourself a 360 camera and a drone for beautiful shots
Love your vids. Keep it up.
Thanks a lot I certainly will!
That was a great video.
Thanks Mark!
Hi Michael! We are looking to relocate from N. Calif to FL. Can you tell me the pros & cons of living on the gulf vs Atlantic side of FL?

Thank you very much big dreams just like the name of your channel that’s what I have😀
I’m moving to Boca Raton though I plan to live down in Bal Harbour in the long run.
Nice! Both places are great so Boca will be a good warm up for you 😉
You seem to want to stay in Florida I hope you don’t leave because of the hurricane

Hey Branden I don't have a video on that topic. In general though you're usually have to pay cash for the place you can obtain financing for usually 40 to 50% down
will you be doing sunny isles?
I will eventually if I keep doing these tours. For a while they were doing well and now not so much. Trying to just make videos that move the needle
Awesome video as always. Btw, have you ever thought about doing one of these walking tours live?
Thanks! I haven’t considered that but I think it’s better to do it like this because the quality will be much higher. If I do them live it’s going to be a low quality mobile stream
nice video, this is nice good
wow nice video and nice place. But my wallet can't afford to live there yet.
Maybe one day you will afford it
Show some SFR sample homes below 250k for sale in that area if they exist. Coops are a disaster to invest in for rentals.
They don't exist. To get into a house in Bal Habour you're looking at $3 million! And there are never that many for sale, since there are not too many Houses to begin with
