    I don't think this is a very honest representation of Port Charlotte or Sunseekers resort.
    A lot of your pics are from Punta Gorda n not PC.
    That mall you show is all but deserted.

      Going there to make more video shoots of stores, but I think Sunseekers will bring more work and economy to SWFL. Plus a lot of local moving from that area any way because of the flood insurance

      @@alek.petrov.realtor The deserted mall that's not safe, the resort that's been a dumpster fire from day one, and the fact that much of your footage isn't even PC, its PG.
      PC isn't bad, but it's kind of a nothing town/city. There's no downtown, no shopping district, few restaurants that are worth the money and small lots. It's a strange place, really. Been here for years. Like I said, not bad, but not good. You go on and on about the restaurants, outdoor activities, shopping and stuff like that. It's opinion, or sales pitch, but the people that live here actually say they miss the things that you say are in abundance here.

    Hopefully the Sunseeker brings some improvements to that end of PC, it needs the help. They're also like a lot of Florida towns, no real downtown but more of a long strip along a main route. In PC's case it's Rte. 41.

    I was born and raised in Port Charlotte. I remember when 41 was just 2 lanes north and south. The mall seen better days in the early 90s to early 2000s. Hurricanes are common. It will take years of redevelopment to really say pc is a great place to live and sunseeker is the start of that. No real beach. There are many better places in SW Florida to move to also worse.
    I live the Venice and Englewood beach vibe. Sarasota is more expensive but has more to do and is not that touristy. So to move to pc from another state or county or city is to say where i can't from was very bad. I like southern North Port its quiet for the most part and Coco Plum has most of the shops i need to go to along with a sprinkle of good eats. Just north of west villiages where there are alot more shops restaurants and housing along with a baseball stadium.

    I lived in Port Charlotte for 5 years and I lived on a canal and had rats, all the canal homes have huge rats, thry find their way in, these homes were built in the 1960s and they're the same houses that are there now, 2011 i bought one for $43,000, now that same house is 250,000...rip off, rats were there when i moved in and when i sold it! Trap houses where u least expect it, lots of druggies in pc.

    I’m sorry have you ever actually lived in Port Charlotte? You’re showing photos of Punta Gorda and Rotonda both of which are adjacent towns. Your claiming a mall filled with Mold and structural damage that has 7 stores in it is a highlight of the area. Golfers will tell you they go to Venice or Englewood. There aren’t good courses in Port Charlotte. I get your trying to sell homes but dude don’t give people fake information.
