Florida dudes, step on in ! *house hunting*

Hey man! Do you have a real estate agent yet?? Being in NYC since there’s since an intense NY/FL connection I have a TON of contacts in Florida all across the state. Plus outside of being in the business, I ALWAYS recommend a buyer’s agent - you’d never divorce your spouse using the same attorney. Buying real estate is the same way. I own four investment properties across Ohio, PA, and SC - used buyers agents on all of them even as an agent myself. Especially if you do decide on Tampa, I’m close with one of the top agents in the area. DM me and let me know man. Hoping the search goes great for you!

Take a Florida map and draw a line from Fort Myers to Port St Lucie, don't go further south than the line.

Born and Raised in Miami and went to high school in the Clearwater area. I love Pinellas county and hope to be able to raise a family there after I finish my Master's degree.

*edit*
No state income tax baby!
Get ready to see the stupid "Flogrown" stickers

Lake Tarpon, lots of very nice communities on the Lake. Cobb's Landing on the West, Lansbrook on the East (those are community names, the cities that lie on the Lake are Palm Harbor and Tarpon Springs).

Also, look in to Odessa, FL. Little bit east of Clearwater, homes with land and lots of lakes.

my desired areas: st petersburg/clearwater/new port richey maybe bradenton

Do yourself a favor if you haven't spent time on both coasts and do that. Weather mostly comes in from the west.
If you are certian you want the west coast the next question is how much congestion do you want? Central west coast is very congested.

I won't be living there. Traffic won't bother me. I'm used to CA traffic, which is basically Satan's layer....

I want: warm weather, blue waters, somewhat close to disneyland for the kids, and Tampa is good option because I can hop on a cruise. I believe Central/West is the area for this. I have been to Orlando/Miami/ft Lauderdale.

They have a drag strip.

The NMRA is always there, the spring break shootout. Other than that, I got nothing.

Oh, and FL = disney WORLD.

Yes. I live 15 min from Bradenton (since 2006) and my wife lived in West Bradenton for 35 years. Her parents still live there in the same house she grew up in.

It’s big enough there’s good parts and not so good parts. But it’s hard to beat for location.

St Pete still gets my vote, we walk the neighborhoods there every morning while on vacation looking at houses for sale. The place we stay is right on Gulf BLVD.

House is near Clearwater/Belleair beach. A new chapter in my life. However I hope this is a great investment decision for my family. I can't wait !
