Moving to Fort Myers Florida | Our Story

Moving to Fort Myers Florida... our story. We are originally from the midwest... Indiana in fact. We moved to Fort Myers Florida for many reasons and some would be the obvious ones. The weather? Yes... the winters are much more tolerable in southwest Florida! But, like most people the weather wasn't the only reason we moved to Fort Myers. Florida has many cool places to live and we considered several but tell you why we ended up deciding on Fort Myers in the end. We've been happy with our decision so far and look forward to telling you about it in this video! If you're thinking of moving to Fort Myers Florida in the future perhaps our story can help you.

Sorry you moved to and built a house in Fort
Meyers, hope you and your family are okay after hurricane Ian.

Just went to prospect the area a couple weeks ago, and I wished the realtors here on YT that talk about this area were more objective in their review. There is no question there are some nice areas and beaches, but there is also some rather sketchy parts in Fort Myers with a lot of Central America and Mexico migrants jaywalking around, mean-mugging you like you don't belong there, etc., like a 'mini Mexico' is the only way I can describe it. And I know because I have lived in that part of the world.
Outside of Fort Myers it's predominantly rural living, lots of the properties there looked like junkyards, and most of the properties being built/for sale right now are not hooked up to municipal services, mostly well and septic, no sidewalks, street lighting, etc. Unless you live in an HOA or gated community/buy in a high-dollar ritzy area, that's what you can actually expect from this place...

I don't know about that weather and you have no mountains

[Wapap]

Unless you want oppressive heat and humidity why

[phucked]

One thing I have noticed is the huge influx of ppl, traffic and crime. We have been here 12 years. It has changed immensely, Now it is expensive, Our home has gone up 104% since buying. I drove yesterday (Sunday). Traffic was maddening. I wish the infrastructure was here to accommodate all the new ppl. Roads weren't designed for this load. Oh well, we'll deal with it.

[efglez]

Worse place t raise children... com on and be honest... have you changed your mind yet? This are is a crap shoot.

[moodyfishing]

Is there a country side to fort meyers like 15 minute drive to hunting spots, fishing and woods, state forests?

[thanksmank]

We moved here about 9 months ago. Now we are totally broke, both my wife and I full time jobs, it's crazy. I hope 🤞 you guys do well.

Love fort Myers. My parents relocated there years ago when I was a kid. Two of my daughters where born in fort Myers and I still have family in fort Myers. Living in ct with wife and dog planning to try and be a snow bird for a few yrs so I plan on spending six months a yr down south looking to go back to fort Myers so I really appreciate the videos any information can help. Thanks again

[didequen]

Yeah, you are moving here because you are real estate agent. That said all.

[JoeHill-Champion]

I relocated from the NorthEast in New Jersey and man the weather is better here then anywhere else in the United States all year! My story follows around the same path i came here or the East Coast of Florida every year twice and sometimes 3 times a year so when i was ready and back from being over seas working as a military contractor i chose to come here and boy did i pick the right time and the right spot cause now a place i bought for 180k seven years ago and a condo for 90k now are worth 640k and 260k so weve been thinking of selling and buying another house! I hope all has been good for you guys since Ian nailed us too!

[danieldesimonedanny]

Too busy and too much crime for my taste. I'm a little north in what I call a flyover county. In 2003 I bought a condo in Punta Gorda Isles and sold it when I bought my home in 2014 in Charlotte county. Good luck & enjoy.

[joehalliday]

Do you know about the gated communities in Ft. Myers such as The Forest?

[andyznuff]

Apologies to you, but damn, timing is everything.
So sorry.

[ashland]

The best move I ever made was leaving Indiana and relocating here in fort myers ❤️

[HamRadioLiveShow]

Nice video. We’re taking care of my older brother who has stage four cancer and is now on hospice. We will have a very difficult time continuing to live in our home after he passes away.

Would you consider Fort Myers to be a place where a person can purchase a new house in the $350, 000 range?

[Filipecaos]

how is it for jobs in terms for hospitality? im a waiter but have some manager exp
and would like to move to fort myers or even close by like port charlotte, punta gorda etc... what are the best recomendations for a single guy?

[JJthename]

Left Ft Myers in 2011.
Best move I ever did.
Looks even better after Ian.
It will take years to clean up that mess.
When it comes back and it will..
only the very affluent will be able to afford it.

[dlekander]

Curious...What is the housing comparison between buying in Tea South Dakota versus Ft Myers? Also is Ft Myers family friendly? What are the schools like mainly high schools?
