Another great video! Thanks for all your hard work.

[@tnek6591]

You are very welcome and thank you for taking the time to say that. We appreciate it very much.

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

Just coming here now from today's posted video. I missed this one last week.

[@lauralampe1664]

Lovely House of The Week...good location as the Village of Rio Grande is close to Spanish Springs. The food at Artman's Smokehouse looked delicious.

[@tnek6591]

The food was absolutely delicious

[@johnandjaneadventures]

Artman’s looks awesome. BBQ. Sauce always finds white clothing!

[@tnek6591]

You are absolutely right

[@johngafford1302]

Agree with y’all on Artman’s! Delish. Wonderful to be back “home” with you and cameraman! ❤️👏 Can’t wait to sell our place and you help us find our new home. I can’t explain it, but I play my best golf in the Villages. Never thought I’d ever break 90 again, but I did here! Hopefully your schedule will allow us to be together our last few days here. Need to introduce y’all to playing Skip Bo! Fun, fun game! Great video production Cameraman! Glad to see your channel growing (not that I didn’t expect it)! 👏👏👏💪🥰

[@tnek6591]

Thank you very much John. Cameraman said you are playing some good golf. You have us intrigued with Skip Bo.

[@ChynnaBlue1]

Thank you for including the model of the home in your information! I am always checking The Villages' web page and looking at models and floorplans, so when I see you list that information, it's easy for me to envision the inside floorplan. Your house of the week is beautiful! I need to stay where I am for 5 more years, but I'll recommend you if anyone I know is interested in moving sooner.

[@tnek6591]

Thank you very much. If you ever need any other information please get in touch, I am always happy to help. Jana

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

I think Jerry and Linda have mentioned Artman's BBQ favorably. I don't think I've noticed that Cameraman is a vegetarian. Is he a Pescatarian? All of the meals look DELISH! Looks like there's plenty of room for a pool on the HOTW. 🏊‍♂ Love to know which furnishings are included. Thanks for another great video, Jana and Cameraman.

[@tnek6591]

You are correct , Cameraman is a pescatarian. He usually says vegetarian to avoid confusion. I will email you a list of what is not staying

[@victoriachanel2493]

Gold Wingnut is awesome, beautiful home you shown, that'll be gone in no time, it's priced properly ❤

[@tnek6591]

Thank you, I think so too. Thank you for taking the time to comment, it’s always appreciated.

[@SippsShanandT]

I was just looking at that listing on the MLS last night in Rio Grande. It's the prettiest house on the market in that price range. Very tasteful renovations! We are looking to buy in about 6 months, but if I had everything lined up now, I'd definitely be interested in that one! Love your show...keep up the good work! 👍

[@tnek6591]

Thank you. Please give me a call when you are ready. Also, reach out if you any questions, I will be happy to help. Jana

[@judycherry9074]

Can't wait to try Artman's. Those ribs look so good!

[@tnek6591]

The best I have had in Florida

[@beachbum6351]

That one will sell quick!

[@tnek6591]

Thank you. I think it will too.

[@stevenwilburn235]

Thank you Jana and Cameraman. Really enjoy your shows.

[@tnek6591]

You are very welcome Steve. Thank you.

[@johnkeller8277]

We played Heron golf course on Tuesday, it was in great shape.

[@tnek6591]

Yes. We enjoyed it too.

[@DisMindy5767]

Looks like you need to bring a Tide stick to BBQ places. Rivera drive is so nice it'll sell very quickly.

[@tnek6591]

Thank you and good idea about the tide stick

[@Pete-rs4yz]

'What I get for my money is my favorite segment. Why wouldn't anyone want to know what houses are selling for, even though comparable sales have so many possible variables. Number two piqued my interest.

[@tnek6591]

Glad you enjoy that segment. I think it’s really useful too. We are looking at ways to add more information without making it too long or boring. Thank you for commenting we really appreciate it. If you see a house that you liked and want me to look for something similar give me a call, text or email.

[@lauralampe1664]

For the homes featured on What Do I Get For My Money?...all 4 homes sold price was quite a bit less than the listing price. Three of the 4 homes were on the market for quite a while. One home on the market for 270 days...interesting.

[@tnek6591]

The homes have to be priced right from the first day. If not they will possibly be there a long time

[@lauralampe1664]

@tnek6591 so I guess "But the Smith family down the block got $××××××× for their house last year, and our house is more attractive/updated...etc than their house" does not apply in the real estate market of mid-2024?

[@stephaniemoen4631]

Love your home of the week. Is it located in Spanish Springs?

[@tnek6591]

Hi! It’s in Rio Grande which is quite close to Spanish Springs but also easy to get to Lake Sumter Landing.

[@HornshawWoodWorks]

Thank you for the video. I really like a lot of the editing changes you made to your video. With one small concern, in your featured home you changed from a “walk thru” style to a “bounce around the home” style. This is definitely more artistic and efficient, but it left me confused as to the layout/floor plan of the home. I wonder if there is a happy medium somewhere in there…?

[@tnek6591]

Thank you for comment. We agree with you and will do walk through again. We have to try different things from time to time. Some work and some don’t. We are always looking at ways to improve and try and keep the content interesting. Having people comment is very helpful to us and we really appreciate it. Thank you.

[@HornshawWoodWorks]

Thx for your reply. I want to clarify, I liked the new style. But my wife and I were having a hard time visualizing the layout of the home. We like the new editing very much. I was just hoping letting you know might spark an idea for adding something in future videos. Keep up the great work!

[@tnek6591]

Thank you. I think we are doing house of the week tomorrow so we will see what Cameraman comes up with. He definitely agreed with you about the layout not being clear enough, and we appreciate that.
