Since you r in fla so much why not move there. Add up the costs of going there 5-6 times a year, that will pay for your insurance. I couldn’t stand the heat or hurricane scares . But really if you are always on fla, just move there
I so appreciate you and Jess for all your videos.. I have end stage lung cancer so to watch and be able to see different places and smile is such a blessing! Thank you both for all you do! ❤
Smart Danno, I absolutely HATE my HOA. I would advise folks to consider carefully before buying if they want to deal with folks whose greatest job is walking the neighborhood being "Meddling Martha's!" RUN as far and as fast as you can in the other direction!!!!!!
Tell Jess that I love seeing her, she adds so much to the videos in her own way. I hope you both have a wonderful trip and a safe trip to Florida. Don't buy into an HOA, it can be a nightmare! As a plus, older homes are built better than the new ones!
I take care of rental homes and want nothing in the yards....because everyone is happier that way. Meanwhile my tenants get to live far better than I do....my yard is a disaster most of the time and the house is going to tip over on me one day. So I'm with you.....stay clear of the HOA places.
Lol my dads house in Massachusetts has turkeys walking around in the forest they were cool to watch. And at our house in NH we had lots of deer they were beautiful to see. I'm hoping you both get the home you want see if you tonight .
Our experience with an HOA was not positive. If you get controlling people on the board, they don't just manage the basics, they MICROMANAGE to the nth degree. Plus, we often had to shovel our own snow anyway. And I agree with others here saying don't do 2 story if you can. Best of luck!
Watch your zoning laws if you want freedom to do your own thing.I have a modular home on a basement.I love my basement,it helps cool the house in the summer,and maintains heat in the winter.If you do a modular,make sure you buy from the top 3 companies for good quality.Don't give up.Develop a relationship with a banker,and see what you qualify for.Look for special programs you may qualify for.
Considering we travel a lot… We LOVE your travel videos!! That’s what we watch for!! Love you guys! We don’t always comment but we always watch your videos together!
Danno unless you have 20 % down payment and can get a low finance price and don't include your insurance in the price it's a rip off . Your need a fix price as well . Make sure you can afford whatever you buy and make sure you have a back up plan incase one gets disabled or sick and make sure you set down and plan out all your bills and and have a back up emergency plan for roof repairs and appliances and toilets and hot water heaters . All these things go bad . Being a homeowner isn't all that . When you buy your stuck there no matter when you find out that you don't like your neighbors you cant pack up and move .
i am 66….. bought my little house on my own 22 years ago….. i was forced into retirement at age 60 and totally not prepared- i am handicap and surely didn’t expect that!!! now i am stuck-- im drowning in debt in this economy, cant afford to fix up my house and its falling down around my ears….. expect and plan for the unexpected.
WILD TURKEYS, Danno! We have them here in KY. It is cool. YES, get a basement.We don't have them much here, (too rocky) and I am sorry that none were available when I needed to buy.
I’m a big fan of “Adventures with Danno!!” Been watching you & Jess on RUclips for at least 3yrs!! Before I go grocery shopping I ALWAYS check your latest videos out!! I may not ‘comment’ a lot but I always watch your channel!! Happy House Hunting!!♥️♥️
JESSICA, she works hard. And she is so smart about these things. I love how she lightens up th video . I miss when Jessica isn't in the video. Thank you for all your help and support with the channel. Bless you, Jessica. You as well Danno.
I wish you the best when it comes to finding the perfect home. One that will grow with you and meet all your needs present and future. Love to see you on the road also as it makes you both so happy.
Danno and Jess you only overpay if when you sell you sell for less than you bought for, or less than you owe, my point is it is subjective in many ways. EDIT: i bought 2 lots in N. Florida in Interlachen for less than 10K combined a couple years ago, ive added power to it, piece by piece building it up, i love Florida too.
When you get ready to plant trees after you find your new home, shop in the fall to see what the leaves look like before you buy to plant in the spring 😉 wishing you two the very best! Much love, Kim ~ Moore, OK
I mentioned it before, but, the most recent travel videos were solid. I can tell that you put thought and plan into them. What sets you two apart from some other creators out there... You both are actually interesting to listen to. I Will stick with you no matter what, if you feel led in a particular direction for the channel.. go all in and after it. I believe your events, cooking, travel, walks bring joy viewers, there are plenty of people like me who are looking for travel videos. I actually found you years ago when I was searching Disney videos. I don't think you were even doing grocery stores. Sending encouragement and watching from my new home in Northwest North Dakota/Montana boarder.
Dan & Jessica Frankly I absolutely 100% LOVE your vacation videos. So fun and absolutely 💯 love it when Jessica is in the videos. They are my favorite ❤ Thank you for showing us all the grocery prices. Keeping us informed and allowing us to be a part of your lives. ❤
Danno & Jess, I support whatever you post ❤ even if it's a store not in my area. Whenever you can enter home/condo/property ownership, over time it will really pay off 😊 Years ago in 70s I thought it was overprice to pay $171,000 for my beach house. I sold it in the 90s for quite a bit and now with a bit more remodeling it sold last for $4.5 million here in southern CA... Happy to hear you ❤ your RUclips work Danno 😊 I've coached all my grandkids to choose a career that they can enjoy all the ups and downs but still look forward to everyday 😊 I fell in ❤ with my job 52 years ago and own the business so I will never have to retire until I can no longer function 😊
You and Jess are sweethearts. All of your videos are interesting and fun. You ARE blessed. I also enjoy watching the love you guys have for one another. I can tell that you enjoy and love making your videos too. Keep them coming. 😊❤
I was happy to hear you say: this is your channel and you'll do what you want. There's a lot of people that try to tell others, how to run their channel or pages. I really enjoy the travel videos, I think those are my favorite.
Do not buy a 2 story a ranch is better as we age stairs or disabilities that might arise cause steps and stairs hard to deal with ! Also make sure to have a carport or garage the snow and ice is harder to deal with as we age !! If the house you find doesn’t have one you can buy a carport pretty cheap they deliver and put it up for you , it’s free standing and works great as a place to sit out under with a picnic table or lawn chairs for cook outs also and isn’t enclosed so you get cover snd air circulation with a carport that you don’t get with a garage ! Just depends on what y’all want !! I’ve been watching since you only had about 1,000 viewers , I always watch but don’t always comment but do hit the 👍!! You know it might be more manageable for y’all to buy a small piece of land. Out if the city and buy a new double wide mobile home to put on it and get your septic and water well or hook up to city utilities , it’s an option that would cost you at lot less , and you could still have a basement put in under the Mobil home if you had a slab poured and set the Mobil home down on the slab !!
I really enjoy your grocery store and rant videos, but I am very much with you. I desperately need a break from it. I really liked the Tennessee videos and am very much looking forward to your Florida videos!!! Whatever parts of it you would like to share I am super grateful for 😊
People missed the boat on buying in FL, my sons home in Sarasota they purchased a few mths before they married in Dec 2019, its only 1400 sq ft but had a hot tub and nice brick enclosed patio with a high screen, nice garage with lots of built in storage cabinets, they paid $249,000. Today, a neighbor sold their house for $495,000.
I have lived in 12 States now. West to Central to South to Southeast. The past 7 months I entailed the I-40 cluster in Nashville traffic with an hour commute to work. We ended up buying our place in a State I have only visited. It came down to Wyoming/Montana/North Dakota for us. We are now moved up here in Northwest North Dakota near Montana Boarder. it is like night and day from Nashville and TN in general for alot of reasons. It is so peaceful here. But, everyone has different likes and needs, so I say do what is best for you. I went from an hour commute to work in Nash traffic... to now it only takes me about 10 minutes to get to the hospital for work now. So excited to hear about you and Jess going after Your dream... !
When you buy land and/or a house in an unrestricted area please be aware of the way the water flows after it rains. How and where does the water flow and travel during and after it rains. This is very important and present a serious problem.
Hi there Dan and Jess. Good luck finding your house, that's the most important and stressful thing you'll ever do. Gosh, I'm so glad we don't have those "HOAs?" We don't have that across the pond. They sure got those houses up quickly, but goodness knows when they do it, I can't see any workers. Here they do everything in batches, but we build with bricks.❤❤👵🏴🌹🌹🌹
HOAs are necessary here for condos and townhouses because most people have no respect for others. If they really damage their home, it affects the safety and integrity of the rest of the homes. (These things are N OT built like old British rowhouses,or many in our older cities.
@tonette6592 We have ASBOs for that. Unfortunately, now here, up to 25% of new builds must be sold to social housing so you could pay good money to have bad neighbours. I have wonderful neighbours a mix of all ages up to 93. I live on an estate in a terraced house ( row). Having been very ill this year, they have been wonderful. I am lucky. I had to start from scratch at over 50 with no money, but I did it. I think you will love your own home, so I wish you both all the luck to achieve your dreams
We’ve been married 33 years and have lived in apartments, rented condos, and owned homes. We have always said we’d never live in an HOA, and other than the condo rentals, we haven’t. But we’ve found the downside to NOT being in an HOA. We live in a nice area and pay $6K in property taxes each year. Our neighbors have decided to turn their backyard into a junkyard, and there’s nothing we can do about it. They have a literal bathtub in their yard. They have a giant utility spool sitting out there. They have a 9-foot-tall pile of wood that resembles a teepee outside their fire pit. They have construction materials stacked on every side of the house, just sitting there. If we were in an HOA, we’d have recourse. Instead, we get to look at it every day. Not trying to be a wet blanket, but just wanted to throw a word of caution out there that it’s not always a terrible thing to have an HOA. We kinda wish we were in one now. 🤦🏼♀️
If you are in a Condo/Townhouse, HOAs make sure that your 'structural integrity' is maintained; if someone wrecks their place, they wreck yours. It is unfortunate that HOAs are becoming just bullies. "Cutting Grass" is a big deal when you have a lot of common space. We had a pool and tennis cou rts that needed to be maintained, as well. M With single-family dwellings, I don't see why you want an HOA pushing you around. I asked on Facebook in the neighborhood site for people to please stop speeding around the corner and up our street, because I am one house off the highway and I nearly get rear-ended and t-boned coming out all the time. I was turned in to the zoning commission , a man I knew years ago and who found no problem, and saw how I was trying to keep my trees and shrubs trimmed so that we cou ld see.(We do have lots of trees; we had an empty lot between us and the state highway for a number of years and they put a liquor store across the street. We needed noise control and privacy.
I Love all your videos!!! We all feel connected with your videos. I never comment openly usually just to other watchers. I have watched for a long time I didnt understand the subscribing and liking and how that was your income. You helped me through Covid( Nurse) and then contracting Meningitis. I am very thankful for you and Jessica and the Danno family.
I live in FL and have been here for 25 years. I’m leaving next year because the cost of living here has gotten out of control. I’m blessed to WFH and looking at northern Alabama or Tennessee.
Hey Danno, as you know, i bought a condo two years ago, paid in the high 80"s, they are now going for in the 130's, so i know what you are talking about housing prices. I love it when jess is able to join you in the vidoes, it's always fun. God bless you two, and take care.
We sold my mom's house in Michigan for 3x what we were offered 3 years ago. The city was bigger nazis than an HOA. Maybe you guys could go west on vacation out west sometime. You could visit us. 😀
Yes! Aside from HOA’s it is VERY important to read over the whole local code regulations. It is amazing what they can randomly slip in there at a board meeting vote.
Donna have you ever checked into the home Depot, Menards, Lowes etc, my husband and I checked them out. The sell houses you buy and put on your land. May be a thing you may want to do. I bet buying a lot and builders would still be cheaper than the going prices today
Hey Danno & Jess! Thank you for all you do. A favor? When you show a B1G1 deal, orB2G2... could you please tell the price? Like, I'll go in to get Diet Pepsi 12pks, Buy 2 get one free, then get there to find the price of one is $8.99... or something crazy. Thank you again, so much!
If you give up being a city-slicker and move to the country, you can save a lot of money! We are 1 hour from Lexington KY. 3000 sq.ft. 2 acres. We paid $84,000 in 2016.
Hey Danno Remember it’s an Election Year. Prices will come down so the powers that be can claim results but in November prices will go back up and most likely higher. Be extremely cautious about buying ‘site unseen’ Some miles from my home was the city dump, and had been for over 20 years. Recently it was filled in, developed, and use to build 400-500 thousand dollar homes. Most were sold to people who lived out of town. During the Summer the smell from the old Dump is overpowering. These poor home buyers have no opportunity for a resolution. It’s buyer be ware. You will find YOUR HOME that is a good fit for you and Jess. It’s out there just waiting for the two of you. Good luck and God Bless.
Love your videos ! Keep doing what you love & you will have a good life ! As for Florida - we looked into it & no way. Insurance for car,house, & taxes, food is tripled the cost than in Ohio … decided to vaca instead when we want to. They’re having huge flood issues everywhere. One of our main concerns were - what if something were to happen to one of us - could we live on one income in Florida 🤷♀️ it would be hard
I love all the content! ❤ we bought a 2 story home on 10 almost 1 acres 2 years ago... waay over paid yeah... but garden room, have my own milk cow and her heifer, chickens for meat and eggs. A turkey. Away from the burbs we were living in. Check homes down there! Maybe north fl .. my sister lives about and hr south of valdosta ga.
Hope you all can find your dream house! I agree no HOA!!! You have to be able to do what you want on your own property. I still want to get a horse! We have chickens and turkeys, 3 dogs and 8 cats! No one telling us what we can and cannot do! We love it out in the country! Hubby drives an hour to work, but he loves the drive! Listening to the radio and enjoying the drive. We are near Port Huron in Michigan. Hold out for a place you know is right for you and you will know it! My hubby just stumbled upon our house. We refinanced during covid so it was pretty simple. Stick with it, stay on the computer looking all the time! Good luck you two! Hi to Jess! Also, we see wild turkeys and deer (which we come close to hitting all the time!) we are surrounded by water. We had to sell my in-laws beautiful home in the Villages in Florida. She passed, he has dementia. Anyway sorry to write a long comment! Good video!
I agree with you as to no HOA. But if you do that make sure you have a little land between you and your neighbors in case you dont like what they do. The one good thing about a HOA is to stop neighbors from doing weird stuff.
You also got to watch areas with no zoning.Our friends lived in a rural town of about 2,000.Their area was down gravel road.A few homes tucked into woods called painted acres for what it looked like in fall.Who would of thought a completion dirt bike track with go in across the street with PA systems,campers,noise and dust.They literally had to leave their country home on weekends to talk.They came home to inches of dirt track dirt on everything.Nightmare for about 5 years till it closed.
I agree with you on the house prices. I started looking closely at the price of the houses I've been interested in. I followed the price 2020 thru now and they were almost at double currently. I live in North Central Indiana. Yes prices are being cut 5, 10 thousand but that compared to dbl. Yeah no I think will see ppl just want to get out of them and come way down. You all are so frugal waiting an stacking your cash. Your patience is remarkable! I wish you all the best! We see turkeys and deer a lot. Pretty cool video today, thx!
As someone who lives in California $250,000 sounds pretty darn great! I agree No on the HOA what a nightmare to deal with. The right house will come along and when it does you will be ready.
![[DOKKAN BATTLE] Worldwide Campaign Announcement Video Part 2!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/JpT5Voak6WA/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm with you and Jess about not wanting to be told what to do and not what to do. Stay away from HOA's!
Don't get a 2 story, as you age, you will regret it 😊
You will regret it. You can always add on. Get basement cool in summer safe in tornados
Stop travel for a year save every cent you won’t regret it.
Since you r in fla so much why not move there. Add up the costs of going there 5-6 times a year, that will pay for your insurance. I couldn’t stand the heat or hurricane scares . But really if you are always on fla, just move there
We have friends I Ormond beach 4 blocks from beach insurance is 5000 a year. Just went up 2000. No HOA.
,@@bobbissell2910,and visiting Disney almost every time they go down.
I so appreciate you and Jess for all your videos.. I have end stage lung cancer so to watch and be able to see different places and smile is such a blessing! Thank you both for all you do! ❤
Prayers ❤
God bless you. 🙏
Will pray for you 🙏🏼
🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@TeresaDMouth thank you
Smart Danno, I absolutely HATE my HOA. I would advise folks to consider carefully before buying if they want to deal with folks whose greatest job is walking the neighborhood being "Meddling Martha's!" RUN as far and as fast as you can in the other direction!!!!!!
Agree!!!
When I bought my house 4 years ago, no HOA was my top priority as well. Best wishes on the house hunt.
an HOA is the scum of the earth in my humble opinion
Basements. YES!!! Couldn't live without mine!
Danno-You're so sweet to make sure Jess has everything she wants!
Lived in a HOA………. NEVER, NEVER AGAIN
Diehard fan here! You post it, I'll watch and enjoy! Thanks danno!
Tell Jess that I love seeing her, she adds so much to the videos in her own way. I hope you both have a wonderful trip and a safe trip to Florida. Don't buy into an HOA, it can be a nightmare! As a plus, older homes are built better than the new ones!
Second the not getting a second story. All on one level.
GM ☕️. Good things come to those who don’t give up. 🏠
I take care of rental homes and want nothing in the yards....because everyone is happier that way. Meanwhile my tenants get to live far better than I do....my yard is a disaster most of the time and the house is going to tip over on me one day.
So I'm with you.....stay clear of the HOA places.
If I didn’t laugh, I’d cry. Yes, laughter is healing and life sustaining. Looking forward to the videos y’all will be making. 😊
Happy house hunting! Wishing you guys the best of luck!
Don't go HOA, to many restrictions. Loved your vacation videos. Dahlonega, GA.
Townships have restrictions also, so there will still be dos & don'ts.
I enjoy ALL of your videos. Owning your own house is a life changing accomplishment.
Lol my dads house in Massachusetts has turkeys walking around in the forest they were cool to watch. And at our house in NH we had lots of deer they were beautiful to see. I'm hoping you both get the home you want see if you tonight .
Our experience with an HOA was not positive. If you get controlling people on the board, they don't just manage the basics, they MICROMANAGE to the nth degree. Plus, we often had to shovel our own snow anyway. And I agree with others here saying don't do 2 story if you can. Best of luck!

Make sure you can afford whatever you buy and make sure you have a back up plan incase one gets disabled or sick and make sure you set down and plan out all your bills and and have a back up emergency plan for roof repairs and appliances and toilets and hot water heaters . All these things go bad . Being a homeowner isn't all that .
When you buy your stuck there no matter when you find out that you don't like your neighbors you cant pack up and move .
Great advice! I'm almost 60 and I wish someone would have said this to us. Home repairs are expensive, especially plumbing.
i am 66….. bought my little house on my own 22 years ago….. i was forced into retirement at age 60 and totally not prepared- i am handicap and surely didn’t expect that!!! now i am stuck-- im drowning in debt in this economy, cant afford to fix up my house and its falling down around my ears….. expect and plan for the unexpected.
True,just retired.First it was termites,new commode,hot water heater,needed driveway drain and finally did that.Always something needs repaired.
You two are the perfect couple! Hope you find a beautiful home to share your lives in soon.
Your plans is going in the right directions.
Property tax and homeowners insurance are out of control in Florida. Georgia has beaches and mountains.
I would say a ranch style house with minimum 2 acres so Jess can have a nice flower garden ❤😊.
WILD TURKEYS, Danno! We have them here in KY. It is cool.
YES, get a basement.We don't have them much here, (too rocky) and I am sorry that none were available when I needed to buy.
I love these types of videos. I agree with you! It's nice to get a break from the high grocery prices and enjoy nature 🙂
I’m a big fan of “Adventures with Danno!!” Been watching you & Jess on RUclips for at least 3yrs!! Before I go grocery shopping I ALWAYS check your latest videos out!! I may not ‘comment’ a lot but I always watch your channel!! Happy House Hunting!!♥️♥️
Enjoyed so much traveling with you to pigeon forge. Keep going, I do enjoy your channel . Greetings from overseas in Germany
I love listening to you talk about Jessica. You have a wonderful relationship.
Thanks for taking us on vacation with you!
JESSICA, she works hard. And she is so smart about these things. I love how she lightens up th video . I miss when Jessica isn't in the video. Thank you for all your help and support with the channel. Bless you, Jessica. You as well Danno.
Awesome walk and talk. Loved the wild turkeys ❤ they are probably confused by the changes in their home situation ❤. ❤😂
Best regards to both you and Jess. House hunting can be fun and exhausting. When you know, you know...the home of your dreams awaits.
I just love ya'll. Even when you have bad news, you put a positive, hopeful spin on it.
I wish you the best when it comes to finding the perfect home. One that will grow with you and meet all your needs present and future. Love to see you on the road also as it makes you both so happy.
Good morning Danno!! I’ll watch whatever you (and Jess) put together. 😊 Those are wild turkeys. We have them all over our neighborhood too.
Best wishes for a house in an area where you and Jess will be happy and content. You both deserve this ❤
Danno and Jess you only overpay if when you sell you sell for less than you bought for, or less than you owe, my point is it is subjective in many ways.
EDIT: i bought 2 lots in N. Florida in Interlachen for less than 10K combined a couple years ago, ive added power to it, piece by piece building it up, i love Florida too.
Hi neighbor, I live in Melrose Florida ❤
Looking forward for your Florida trip next month and I enjoy all of your videos Danno and Jesse.
Danno you and Jessica should checkout out Knoxville Tennessee its a beautiful place to live and have a home .Love your videos
When you get ready to plant trees after you find your new home, shop in the fall to see what the leaves look like before you buy to plant in the spring 😉 wishing you two the very best! Much love, Kim ~ Moore, OK
I mentioned it before, but, the most recent travel videos were solid.
I can tell that you put thought and plan into them.
What sets you two apart from some other creators out there... You both are actually interesting to listen to.
I Will stick with you no matter what, if you feel led in a particular direction for the channel.. go all in and after it. I believe your events, cooking, travel, walks bring joy viewers, there are plenty of people like me who are looking for travel videos.

Thank you for showing us all the grocery prices. Keeping us informed and allowing us to be a part of your lives.
❤
I grew up in Ohio, lived most of my adult life in southern US states. Moved back to OH 6 years ago to be with family and have zero regrets.
I think come 2025 , you will have luck 😊
Danno & Jess, I support whatever you post ❤ even if it's a store not in my area. Whenever you can enter home/condo/property ownership, over time it will really pay off 😊 Years ago in 70s I thought it was overprice to pay $171,000 for my beach house.

Looking forward to your adventures in Florida, Danno and Jess
I enjoy all your videos! I appreciate what you guys do!

Thank you two for sharing your adventures! ☺️ No need to explain anything to the ‘negative Nancy’s’ out there who are just unhappy people!
Or the Karen 's thinking they're king of the world
We love “coming” with you and Jess on your travels! Keep it up! Danno, thank you for keeping us up to date with prices etc! Jess keep smiling!!❤❤
ooooohhhhhhh those houses are so close together!
Homeowners insurance in Florida is insanely expensive
Hi there Dan and Jess. Good luck finding your house, that's the most important and stressful thing you'll ever do. Gosh, I'm so glad we don't have those "HOAs?" We don't have that across the pond. They sure got those houses up quickly, but goodness knows when they do it, I can't see any workers. Here they do everything in batches, but we build with bricks.❤❤👵🏴🌹🌹🌹
HOAs are necessary here for condos and townhouses because most people have no respect for others. If they really damage their home, it affects the safety and integrity of the rest of the homes. (These things are N OT built like old British rowhouses,or many in our older cities.
@tonette6592 We have ASBOs for that. Unfortunately, now here, up to 25% of new builds must be sold to social housing so you could pay good money to have bad neighbours. I have wonderful neighbours a mix of all ages up to 93. I live on an estate in a terraced house ( row). Having been very ill this year, they have been wonderful. I am lucky. I had to start from scratch at over 50 with no money, but I did it. I think you will love your own home, so I wish you both all the luck to achieve your dreams
Danno your videos are a sweet enjoyable HAPPY ESCAPE from all the ugly evil junk . Jess and you cheer me up 🎉❤
In the south we don't have basements. We have crawl spaces.
I live in the south east and have a basement. I would never live in a house without one because of tornadoes
@@annjames1837me too. My house is on a hill, most the houses below me are on slabs or crawl space. Hill is the trick.
Get yourself an early Thanksgiving dinner my friend.
Ignore the haters always!! Keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻 God Bless you 🙏🏼
2 story +utilitys =$$$$$. Good luck
Good walk and talk. And it looks like a lovely day, you can see the nice breeze flowing through the trees and shrubs.
We’ve been married 33 years and have lived in apartments, rented condos, and owned homes. We have always said we’d never live in an HOA, and other than the condo rentals, we haven’t.
But we’ve found the downside to NOT being in an HOA. We live in a nice area and pay $6K in property taxes each year. Our neighbors have decided to turn their backyard into a junkyard, and there’s nothing we can do about it. They have a literal bathtub in their yard. They have a giant utility spool sitting out there. They have a 9-foot-tall pile of wood that resembles a teepee outside their fire pit. They have construction materials stacked on every side of the house, just sitting there. If we were in an HOA, we’d have recourse. Instead, we get to look at it every day.
Not trying to be a wet blanket, but just wanted to throw a word of caution out there that it’s not always a terrible thing to have an HOA. We kinda wish we were in one now. 🤦🏼♀️
If you are in a Condo/Townhouse, HOAs make sure that your 'structural integrity' is maintained; if someone wrecks their place, they wreck yours.
It is unfortunate that HOAs are becoming just bullies. "Cutting Grass" is a big deal when you have a lot of common space. We had a pool and tennis cou rts that needed to be maintained, as well. M
With single-family dwellings, I don't see why you want an HOA pushing you around. I asked on Facebook in the neighborhood site for people to please stop speeding around the corner and up our street, because I am one house off the highway and I nearly get rear-ended and t-boned coming out all the time. I was turned in to the zoning commission , a man I knew years ago and who found no problem, and saw how I was trying to keep my trees and shrubs trimmed so that we cou ld see.(We do have lots of trees; we had an empty lot between us and the state highway for a number of years and they put a liquor store across the street. We needed noise control and privacy.
I Love all your videos!!! We all feel connected with your videos. I never comment openly usually just to other watchers. I have watched for a long time I didnt understand the subscribing and liking and how that was your income. You helped me through Covid( Nurse) and then contracting Meningitis. I am very thankful for you and Jessica and the Danno family.
Good luck on your house search. Definitely stay away from HOAs.
I live in FL and have been here for 25 years. I’m leaving next year because the cost of living here has gotten out of control. I’m blessed to WFH and looking at northern Alabama or Tennessee.
Also, Sanford Airport in Florida has Allegiant Airlines and you can fly "very cheap" with them. I have used them several times.
I love this video. Thank you for the video. God bless x👍👍😃❤️🙏
Hey Danno, as you know, i bought a condo two years ago, paid in the high 80"s, they are now going for in the 130's, so i know what you are talking about housing prices. I love it when jess is able to join you in the vidoes, it's always fun. God bless you two, and take care.
We sold my mom's house in Michigan for 3x what we were offered 3 years ago. The city was bigger nazis than an HOA.
Maybe you guys could go west on vacation out west sometime. You could visit us. 😀
Yes! Aside from HOA’s it is VERY important to read over the whole local code regulations. It is amazing what they can randomly slip in there at a board meeting vote.
Donna have you ever checked into the home Depot, Menards, Lowes etc, my husband and I checked them out. The sell houses you buy and put on your land. May be a thing you may want to do. I bet buying a lot and builders would still be cheaper than the going prices today
Hey Danno & Jess! Thank you for all you do. A favor? When you show a B1G1 deal, orB2G2... could you please tell the price? Like, I'll go in to get Diet Pepsi 12pks, Buy 2 get one free, then get there to find the price of one is $8.99... or something crazy. Thank you again, so much!
Hey Danno y’all need to check out the Lakeland fl area great place to live and central to everything and lots to do but we don’t have basements lol
You and jess are awesome and i look forward to your videos everyday.
If you give up being a city-slicker and move to the country, you can save a lot of money! We are 1 hour from Lexington KY. 3000 sq.ft. 2 acres. We paid $84,000 in 2016.
Just keep looking and save every penny. Start small. Fix it up. Sell it for more to make some on it. You can always go bigger later.
Hey Danno
Remember it’s an Election Year. Prices will come down so the powers that be can claim results but in November prices will go back up and most likely higher.
Be extremely cautious about buying ‘site unseen’ Some miles from my home was the city dump, and had been for over 20 years. Recently it was filled in, developed, and use to build 400-500 thousand dollar homes. Most were sold to people who lived out of town. During the Summer the smell from the old Dump is overpowering. These poor home buyers have no opportunity for a resolution. It’s buyer be ware. You will find YOUR HOME that is a good fit for you and Jess. It’s out there just waiting for the two of you. Good luck and God Bless.
Love your videos ! Keep doing what you love & you will have a good life ! As for Florida - we looked into it & no way. Insurance for car,house, & taxes, food is tripled the cost than in Ohio … decided to vaca instead when we want to. They’re having huge flood issues everywhere.
One of our main concerns were - what if something were to happen to one of us - could we live on one income in Florida 🤷♀️ it would be hard
I can't wait to go to Florida with you guys! 😁
I love all the content! ❤ we bought a 2 story home on 10 almost 1 acres 2 years ago... waay over paid yeah... but garden room, have my own milk cow and her heifer, chickens for meat and eggs. A turkey. Away from the burbs we were living in.
Check homes down there! Maybe north fl .. my sister lives about and hr south of valdosta ga.
Jess is absolutely right. Stay well away from buying off plan. The economy is teetering on an edge and is definitely not worth the risk.
Hope you all can find your dream house! I agree no HOA!!! You have to be able to do what you want on your own property. I still want to get a horse! We have chickens and turkeys, 3 dogs and 8 cats! No one telling us what we can and cannot do! We love it out in the country! Hubby drives an hour to work, but he loves the drive! Listening to the radio and enjoying the drive. We are near Port Huron in Michigan. Hold out for a place you know is right for you and you will know it! My hubby just stumbled upon our house. We refinanced during covid so it was pretty simple. Stick with it, stay on the computer looking all the time! Good luck you two! Hi to Jess! Also, we see wild turkeys and deer (which we come close to hitting all the time!) we are surrounded by water. We had to sell my in-laws beautiful home in the Villages in Florida. She passed, he has dementia. Anyway sorry to write a long comment! Good video!
I agree with you as to no HOA. But if you do that make sure you have a little land between you and your neighbors in case you dont like what they do. The one good thing about a HOA is to stop neighbors from doing weird stuff.
Enjoy. Thanks for reminding me. I left my coffee at home😊 to far to turn back.
You also got to watch areas with no zoning.Our friends lived in a rural town of about 2,000.Their area was down gravel road.A few homes tucked into woods called painted acres for what it looked like in fall.Who would of thought a completion dirt bike track with go in across the street with PA systems,campers,noise and dust.They literally had to leave their country home on weekends to talk.They came home to inches of dirt track dirt on everything.Nightmare for about 5 years till it closed.
I love all of your videos. 👏❤️ it’s a different adventure every day which I love
I agree with you on the house prices. I started looking closely at the price of the houses I've been interested in. I followed the price 2020 thru now and they were almost at double currently. I live in North Central Indiana. Yes prices are being cut 5, 10 thousand but that compared to dbl. Yeah no I think will see ppl just want to get out of them and come way down. You all are so frugal waiting an stacking your cash. Your patience is remarkable! I wish you all the best! We see turkeys and deer a lot. Pretty cool video today, thx!
buying and selling is so overwhelming! I'm in the process also, UGH!
land!!!!!no close neighbors....that's #1 on my list
We are too. Tough market atm. Maybe it will improve soon 🤞
FL is a nice place to visit. House insurance is through the roof in FL. And forget about decent medical care.
I live in perry, fl
.its in the nw. I hate the summers here. But, its awesome in the winter😊
As someone who lives in California $250,000 sounds pretty darn great! I agree No on the HOA what a nightmare to deal with. The right house will come along and when it does you will be ready.
Thanks for the walk and talk
Good luck house hunting
Very smart with No HOA
Life changes everyday
The beaches have the humps New York City have that on there beaches in the City.
