What about seniors who have no interest in golf? Developers are hung up on the concept that everyone is from the same mold and like golf.

First thing I noticed about these communities : They have so much space between houses. Much more than what I've seen in other communities.

OMG! These are ridiculously high for seniors on fixed income.

Enjoy you two together so much! Your mother/ son dynamic is so truly heartwarming. The hug he gave you midway through the video just got me... ❤️. To he information here has been so helpful for my new search! Thank you!

Mom did a good job raising the young man! He is a cutie!!

I've been enjoying your videos and appreciate this one that shows you don't need a fortune to live in a nice community.

I’d love to see more videos like this of more affordable options. I’m a retired teacher and my husband will be a retire pastor. Living in church patronage’s leaves us high and dry when it comes to available equity. Eventually we will need a home for retirement. We’d love to move to Florida and the 55+ communities have so much to offer. I’ve heard that there are some really nice ones that even have manufactured homes that are attractive options.

Love it. Penbrooke Fairways is my Favorite, although it's the More expensive of the 3, although NOT expensive. It has a Workout Room and has so much to offer. Trees, Love! Gated, Very Good!!

This is beautiful especially the houses and there's so much to do and I love how you hugged your mom show us mobile home love y'all 💖🤗

Thank you for the video on reasonably priced homes. Not all seniors have $350K+ to purchase a home. We were in the military and moved 8 times in 20 years, and could never build enough equity to afford to buy in a retirement home community. It would be nice if you did more videos on homes that were in the low to mid $100K price range. Home prices are inflated right now, so we will have to wait until the market adjusts again.

It’s shocking how high homes are now. It’s a serious issue. Most Young families and seniors can’t afford it.

Thank you, this was a really good video, a lot of good intel.!......

Would like to have seen all the types of homes in the community-tiny home,manufactured home etc

Love this video! So nice to see more affordable options for 55+. Thanks.....keep the great info coming!😎

Some folks don't care about golf or clubhouses. No fences! UGH FENCES MAKE GREAT NEIGHBORS! 😉

Very good video,so much info.Will look forward to more locations..Thankyou much.

Liked this video and subscribed.. I am in the central Florida area. Show some communities here as well.

The ping pong game was the best!! LOL! love your channel!

the two of you are so lucky to work together. Mom is cool and Jay Michael is learning fast from a real pro.

Interesting...Keep up the good work.

Just subscribed to your channel!! 😊

I think that Palm Cay seemed to be the most neighborly and reasonably priced for the features offered.Even though the first one you visited and showed with your mother was extremely nice and just a bit higher priced but it also was a little nicer area and gated.Thank you for showing these communities,because this is making it much easier for my husband and I which will be coming from California so we are trying to find just the right spot to retire and with all your hard work and due diligence it makes our job so much easier,so again THANK YOU !

Great video again. I had no idea that communities in that price range existed. Thank you for showing us we have options. Who is doing the video editing? You are putting some time into these videos. The background music is perfectly timed and for me, really adds to create a different feeling for each property. Great camera work for headshots, rule of thirds, transitions, slow and fast motion and the Mavic 2 makes it all so magic. A joy to watch, keep it rollin! Thanks

You two are great together. Very articulate and both quite attractive! Helpful information as well.

I wish more places had community gardens. We have golf and tennis here where I am at but I don't play either. Also it would be nice to have a place to store a kayak or very small boat to enjoy the Florida waters that are everywhere.

My favorite of this group is Pembrooke Fairways. A few reasons- smaller lots, they cut the grass and location close to the villages. Great job! Thanks!

Pennbrooke Fairways homes looks great especially for someone like me since I live in NYC but wanting a house for a long winter months to get away as a snowbird. Also, HOA includes internet and having the lawn mowed, it's much better deal than the Villages. I'm not into golfing or socializing with other gizzards so it's a perfect for me. I know your website and once I visit the area, I'll contact you to be my agent. It'll be all cash deal for fast closing sometime next year when I call quits to the rat race. Love your videos.

Very cool vid! Thanks to you and your Mom and Russ! We will be emailing you and calling the office for more information. Looking forward to relocating into a clean area of safety, tranquility, peace, quiet, and beautiful surroundings with friendly people!

I really like palmclay no. 1 choice and spruce creek no. 2 choice very nice ty for sharing

Here in Newport News, VA my HOA only covers the pool, gym, meeting room, and ground & exterior maintenance for about $200+ a month, everything else comes out of my pocket. It would be nice if cable and internet were included because Verizon FiOS is outrageous like another car payment. The communities you showed are very nice and would have no problem living there, just have to wait another year when I'm old enough to meet minimum requirements.

Great video! super well done!

Hi, nice video. I was just wondering if you could do a video of lower priced homes/communities, perhaps w Mobile Homes in 55+ types locations, plz? Thx

Great info, thanks! I'm debating Villages or not at this point, leaning to outside it now.

Hi! I'm watching from Scotland. We don't have places like this. We don't have the acreage...or the weather!! I'd love to live in any of them 😍

All really lovely. I would have liked to to see more of the inside of houses, but must difficult if they are occupied.

Great information thanks

As soon as Mom leaves Micheal gets distracted by horseshoes and the piano! Well done!

Thank you so much for sharing these videos. When I reach out to various 55+ communities in Florida I get the following email saying under Oregon Real Estate Agency law they are unable to provide me with any information. Is that common? Seems unfair!

I really liked Palm Cay. I would like to find a community that has smaller homes, low HOA, central FL or north

Excellent video! Thank you. What date were these proced on? That would be vital info to your video....

Nice LOVE the drone

This is from 3 months ago so wondering how different the home prices are since all the hyperinflation in homes

Love all 3 communities, and agree that it seems like if you golf Pembrook is a strong choice. Did the other two include the lawn maintenance in the HOA fees? Didn't hear you mention it, and since you said it in the 1st community, should cover it in all. Maybe the reason the 2nd and 3rd didn't have any houses on the market is because the folks have definitely found their happy place. I didn't notice any fence lines in any of the communities, are they allowed? What about any pet restrictions? I did notice a German Shepherd being walked, do they allow tie outs if not fences? For dog lovers, that something to mention also. 6our videos do give me something to talk to the wife about, she's leaning towards Arizona, but the housing seems more affordable in Florida, if we could stand the humidity 😀

Great piano playing.

Hello , Very very Nice! Thank you

Great finds . More please. Further south if you can.

I think 1st was best but most expensive. 2nd was second best based on amenities, but third had maybe nicer surroundings. Overall, I'd say 2nd represented by far the best value for money and also had a guard on the gate. But, if you're going to then have to pay for golf course fees/membership, the first one becomes by far the best value.

You don't have to pay for the golf unless you play and there are usually lots of other stuff to do. And you can also start a group if you want.😁

I needed to see this vid.... we are looking for the best place to live out retirement.

Nice video, wish you were in my area! Just a suggestion... In your intro, please say what city/state these communities are in. People who watch KZfaq on their TV's have no idea unless they go to the computer and look you up (me for example).

Great video lots of information how much do the taxes and interest rates range on these houses

I think I’d like this community for us. I’m concerned though for old homes built on a slab with old plumbing.

Do you know of any reasonably priced 55+ with RV parking at the home? This would be a great video to do. The videos are well done. Excellent production quality!

Pennbroook Fairways does not include golf membership in the $217. There are several membership types for golf. Also When you buy a home there it includes ownership of a portiion of the properties, so while you don't own the land directly under your home, you are a member owner of the property. (hence only $217/mo for HOA fee)

Can you suggest a monthly condo rental in Florida walking distance to shops and restaurants with a pool and short drive to the beach? Looking for February 2023 .

No fenced-in back yards for my baby Chihuahua. HOA is great. House prise is also appealing.

Well done. Here in sun city grand in surprise az. Hoa 's go up too much and also required to pay off- grounds clubhouse major complex, tennis courts etc.etc area not gated . In other words these places you are showing are better deal for same age construction. If you ever show multi floor condo places warn about water leaks from floors above. Have dealt with one too many extremely damaging insurance claims. Were moving.

Wow thank you for the review. I’m not sure how long or if my wife and I can relocate. I’d love to move yesterday, but realistically I would have to sell my home here in New York City. Although that would not really be a problem. The real problem I have is with my wife’s job. She was working from home about 60 % of the time before the Pandemic. Now for the past two years she has been working from home 100% of the time. Her job has not as of yet given her permission to work from far away IE: Tennessee. I am already retired I am about to be 58 years old and my wife is 51 years old. Also her parents live with us and I must buy with them in mind also. So there you have it I am playing a waiting game. I will contact you as soon as this is resolved; I want out of NYC so bad I can taste it.

sounds good wanna take a look.

Can you guys some videos about "On Top of The World" retirement community it seems to be really had to find info that is up to date if anything. Thank you.

Love it.

Quick question: What about lease price? Thank you!

What's the difference between a Villa and Single Family when looking at HOA fees? Does single family = a condo or duplex??

Do you have any senior apartments near Jacksonville,Fl? I don’t want to move back there but we’re getting older and need to be closer to family. I also have a daughter in LaBelle either one

Love them all, could live in anyone of these communities, but would like to know if I could put up an antenna nothing to large as I'm a ham opetator.

Dont care about all these pools and golf courses. Just a nice house and yard affordable near Sac, Rancho or Folsom CA. Lot rents keep rising and hardly any available on market.

Love the dynamic with Mother and Son... I am just researching the possibility of the 55+ communities. Does it mean you pay your 175K (approx) then your 100monthly for the property and that's it or is there a lease for the land charge on top of it? I am confused.

Thanks for this great video, love the energy and information. Enjoyed the ping-pong, horseshoes and piano! Best wishes from 🇬🇧 UK. Keep up the great work 👍.

First time watching your channel, great information. But could not finish your video, too much of the rapid zooming. But thumbs up on the drone shots.

You forgot to mention that Leesburg has the 5th highest crime rate in the state

I am an avid boater can you show a community that has boat storage and fees associated?

Awwww ;D Sweet relationship between you and mom

Those places are certainly affordable but a bit old and 55+ does not show Pembrook. Can u put list the places you visit in the description

How about some of the mobile home parks in Lake County. A few have monthly fees as low as $25/35 per month.

I just found your sight. Will you be going to North Port Charlotte, Punta Gorta, or North Fjt. Meyers?

$175,000 plus lots rents/fees of another $500 a month or more is not cheap. You must all be in much larger incomes than I am!

Pembrook was the best, do you have anything a little closer to hospitals or to town

How close are these to hospitals, and the main downtown areas?

So it's "low hundreds" for rent and then 217.00 for the monthly HOA fees? Is it possible to buy your home and then pay the HOA fees?

Interested in ROC with little to no HOA such as Hammock Estates in Sebring....are there any other places like this? Hammock is way over pricing their homes that are 40+ yrs old its ridiculous

How well everything is arranged. America is a country for people.

Great Video. I caught that Pembroke cuts grass. Did Not catch whether the other two also cut grass or not. Would be important to me. Please let me know. Thanks.

How do find info online ? Searching now for one year possible moving - near villages not inside 😎

Did I miss the "why" part of this "Why are these communities so cheap?" video? It's amazing that they are, but I was curious WHY?, because even places like the Villages are really cheap compared to the rest of the country 55+ communities at least in my area and they are no where near as nice as these

Thankyou for a very informative video. How much are the tiny houses?

Do you have vids on rentals,??? Houses, senior apts or condos????

Nice arial, land level, and house interior videos. Please add lot sizes to house SF and prices. I like the country. So those postage stamp size lots are not for me.

Damn!! Expensive!! My home cost 64,000 for 1000 sq ft. Lot rent 780 includes water trash sewer lawn care snow removal maintenance and HOA fees along with all the amenities. Pool, dog park, fishing pond, craft room, work shop, gym exercise room, clubhouse, card rooms, billiards room, movie theater, 5 miles of walking trails. Many many activities including men's club and women's club.

Very good video. Would love to see oak run when you have a chance.

I liked the first community the best.

Hello. I am a baby senior, 55.5 and I have always related to people almost twice my age as long as I can remember. Do you know of any retirement homes that boast about the newly seniors and a community for them? I would like to live the remainder of my days enjoying 'resort like' amenities everyday. :)

Hi! Do you have info on homes in Myrtle Beach 55+ communities?

Hi, I like Pembrooke community better than the 2 but I've noticed from all of those communities there are no Asian living in the 3 communities. I'm from the Maryland originally from Philippines who looking for a retirement place to live. By the way, is it ground rent?

can you do this in the area of Melbourne?

Any updates on available homes in any of these communities? What about pets? Thanks

Pro...alll 3 communities seem affordable. Con...where were all the people? There were a few people at Pennbrooke Fairways. Not many out and about at the other 2. Are these communities full of snowbirds, and from May through November are pretty empty?

We are looking for a active community 55+. Can you suggest one that has bigger garages space for my Husband that has a few classic cars he likes to work on.Thank you. We will be visiting end of June and would love to be able to see some community.

Please review Oak Run for us. Thanks!

What time of day was this video taken? The amenities aren't being used.

You 2 are great on camera.....very natural.....I bet you will gain a lot of customers from these.....
