Disney Adults Living in Orlando

[@star_platinum2821]

horizon west you can sneak right in the back of disney through the short cuts , you can leave your house at 9:00 and be in the park at 9:30

[@tombangalter5924]

Orlando is so much more than Disney. It's a giant perk, but being a pass holder now is different than it was pre-covid. It's not as spontaneous ( especially with Genie +, more crowds and price increases). I wouldn't discourage anyone, but evaluate your situation and lifestyle.

[@thundercat8601]

I’m so excited to get our vacation house built next year in Horizon West (Del Webb Oasis). There’s nothing I want to do more in retirement than wander around theme parks without a blistering scheduled agenda.

[@offtodisney7660]

We were going to buy there. I took a look round the show homes a couple of weeks back and discovered they had gone up by almost $300k since they started sending out information. A decent spec now is the sharp end of $800k without a pool!

[@kenpozek]

Nothing like not having to rush through because you know you’ll be back next week

[@JIMFED63]

My wife and I just recently purchased in Clermont. Ridgeview development and we are moving from Massachusetts to Florida so we can go to Disney !

[@kenpozek]

Congrats and welcome!

[@Mr.Shawn034]

I think most people picture “Disney Adults” as spending their evenings riding rides and eating popcorn. For my fiancé and I we enjoy just walking around the Parks and eating at a sit-down restaurant.

[@kenpozek]

Agree! That’s our vibe too

[@BobTuskey]

Yes, and Disney Adults are given an underserved negative stereotype as well. My wife and I are courteous, helpful and stay out of the way of other guests. We leave tables and benches cleaner than when we arrived. We usually walk on the edges of the pathways and streets. We don't walk through queues and don't bother those who chose to do just this without consideration. We are polite in difficult circumstances and wonderful to the cast members ( of which my wife is now one.) We retired here two years ago and love it. The experience changes once you are local with an AP and we wouldn't have it any other way. Love your videos Ken, keep up the great work. We know it takes a team.

[@WaterBug46]

Absolutely agree. Once one becomes an AP holding local the vibe changes completely. A nice leisurely walk and dinner, or an early pre rope drop stroll with snacks and home before lunch. No hurries or agenda. I wish every park goer could experience a no drama day.

[@johenny1870]

Can you recommend neighborhoods with the best schools? We are leaning in Montessori schools but open to public schools as well.

[@JoyleiaJo]

LOL My little one couldn't stop laughing! 💋

[@adrianparedes1413]

Come on over to Rosemont! The development got through the appeals process and is now in the permitting stage. Take the 429 straight to the mouse and a bigger ROI on your future home asset.

[@robertwalker9670]

I'm definitely starting look to buy in Windermere, Dr Phillips, or celebration in feburary

[@dwightk.schruteiii8454]

I think you need to make a lengthy video expanding on the “things to do”. That monorail crawl was a genius idea but I like many others aren’t the type to know of things to do (introverted).

[@kenpozek]

Creating a long form blog post with instructions soon :)

[@dwightk.schruteiii8454]

@@kenpozek nice! Keep me updated!

[@jadanmoore1205]

Got code that’s in Orlando Florida

[@MyBackyardScience]

I agree! I don't think I would ever be bored in the Orlando area! 😀 👍

[@kathymarks1004]

Why does it seem that the areas of Altamonte Springs, Winter Park, Longwood and Apopka are rarely mentioned in real estate videos? Any particular reason? 😊

[@kenpozek]

I talk about them on my lives all the time! They’re just a bit too far if you’re moving here specifically for the theme parks. I LOVE the areas you mentioned tho

[@kathymarks1004]

@@kenpozek I guess I need to look back on some of your older videos. 🤪

[@inthegame26]

Life is awesome in the Orlando area but traffic is brutal on every Highway just about all the time.

[@kenpozek]

I4 is brutal. The toll roads are rarely bad. Local side streets and highways can be rough for sure.

[@TimMacy]

Thank you for making this video for me.

[@kenpozek]

You’re welcome. See you soon

[@Mr.Matt.Hutchinson]

Is there a link to subscribe to the Orlando Real newsletter? You mentioned it in the video, but I didn't see a link on the website. Thanks.

[@kenpozek]

If you visit theorlandoreal.com and click on any of the articles it’ll prompt you if you want to sign up for the newsletter. Your comment made me realize it needs to be more prominent on the homepage. So thank you 🙏🏼

[@WaterBug46]

I’m a 5 gen native and have APs to the big three. I get it.

[@kenpozek]

Pretty fun life 🥳

[@Curious_Skeptic]

Proud disney adult. Did my time w six kids. Lol

[@kenpozek]

Same!

[@MiamiCoffee2023]

GM Coffee Ken! ☕️☕️ 😀

[@kenpozek]

Morning!

[@lisalee4517]

Have you ever done a video for people specifically moving south for the winter? We plan to buy a vacation home but one thing I wonder about is if there are property management companies that can check on your home when you are states away part of the year? We would be looking for a single family home so no apartment/condos.

[@kenpozek]

Yep! There’s companies like total care that’ll do a vacant home check as often as you need. Many of my snowbirds end up using cameras and security to keep an eye on things while they’re gone.

[@Boris-xx7dw]

We do go as annual pass holders for Disney and universal , but I’m evaluating Disney as I’m getting burnt out with it as mentioned, but we are getting pretty fed up with the constant price increases and getting less for the increase ,the latest increase of $15 each to use a fast pass/lightning three times , we was actually told by a cast member it’s not worth it and I agree , especially if you are a family of four , that’s going to work out really expensive. As for areas we are in windermere, we wouldn’t consider living anywhere south of the 192 .

[@austinhedgren5659]

Do you recommend any realtors for brevard county??

[@tonypapas9854]

It will never happen, but "Adult Only" days at Theme Parks would sell out in seconds. Even when young I was annoyed by other families and their screaming children......LMFAO.

[@kenpozek]

😆🤣😆

[@candieliza]

I’m a Disney Adult in Winter Garden lol

[@kenpozek]

Hahah hey neighbor!

[@RobertAndriano]

We're close to retirement and bought a place in Reunion. Awesome golf, restaurants, close to Disney. Please don't publicize ! 🤣🤣

[@kenpozek]

Hahah just trying to get your home values to stay up!

[@RobertAndriano]

@@kenpozek Much appreciated. It's the thought that counts.... But as long as I don't sell, I don't care what the home values are. In fact, it might be better if they get cheaper so I buy something bigger. No?

[@kenpozek]

True true! Could always turn the original one into a rental

[@EpcotResterHouse]

Ken.........you completely skipped Hunter's Creek........

[@toddcribbs6844]

By the way my name is Todd Cribbs and my home theme park is Busch Gardens Tampa Bay so I don't go to Walt Disney World I'm not sorry about that

[@toddcribbs6844]

No I'm not at Disney adult they lost my status a long time ago don't ever use that term again when it comes to me can't put me in that process anymore

[@GenesRapture]

Anyone can go to Disney-like theme parks. It’s nonsense that people make fun and laugh at people like that. There are adults in their 40s and above who play computer games. I applaud adults who can go and enjoy theme parks without the kids. Why shouldn’t they?

[@kenpozek]

They totally should! Not sure if you watched the video, but this was a negative thing :)

[@m.f.r.5827]

I used to but now Disney is garbage

[@tomperkins4965]

They need to get life outside of toxic fandoms and they need to go to the doctors to clean their toxic minds & grow ups
