Hi all
I know…I know it’s probably not the best place to look and ask
Wife and I are looking for a place in Florida. Currently live in Wisconsin 🥶. We like the Ft Myers area/Destin/Tampa area but are open to others as well. Preferred close to the water. Looking to make the move within the next year. Shoot me a pm if you have one you would consider selling or know of someone. I am not a realtor.
Thanks much!
Will

I’d rather be in hell with my back broke than live anywhere near Tampa.

No beach access in Ft. Meyers, it rains every day in the summer and it's way south. No mosquitos there because they spray at night.
I spent 9 months working in Fort Walton Beach (across the bridge from Destin) and loved it. Good fishing\hunting and close to IH10 if you want to travel. I was shocked at how cold it got in Fort Walton Beach until I realized it's the same latitude as central Texas where I live. Destin is a tourist town.
I worked in Tampa for 6 months and hated everything about it.

I’m in real estate in Wisconsin and could get the deal done without realtor to save you money.
Thanks much!
Will Dear Will, Being the holder of more than one real-estate title I receive about 25 to 30 calls a week and numerous mailings from sleazebag realtors fishing for new listings. Why is it that your post is worded exactly like those mailings and calls I receive? Jeff

Thanks for all your responses!!! I am not a realtor and quite honestly don’t like to work with them at all. I have went through a few down there and have since stopped viewing through them. I am a landlord and am perfectly capable of drafting a offer myself and getting a deal done. No need for a realtor. Did you have a place you may want to sell in Florida or just concerned that I am a realtor? Thanks much

Will,
Being Florida is the home of Donald Trump and Ron Desantis and you being from Wisconsin and all, they might not let you move here.

Man If I was going to move to Florida
It would be North Florida 100%, somewhere between Okefenokee swap, hugging the Alabama.
Fouck living ‘near the water’. An hour’s drive would be nice enough near the water. Yet back enough to soften property values from the over-hype inflated numbers.
Something near a desolate one traffic light town, where old men sell boiled peanuts and the black folks are friendly. Possibly near an inland lake, Apalachacola bay,maybe near some springs to do some clear water inland kayaking and fishing.
That’s just me. If you want a shîtty condo life, horns honking, spring break foolishness, Florida gone Freaknik, NFL football team jive…that’s all you
