Whether it’s through the relatable stories, the heartfelt moments, or the laughs that brighten my day, your podcast always feels like a breath of fresh air. So sorry to hear about your brother-in-law my prayers go out to him and his family for a speedy recovery.

My thoughts on unaffordable it maybe for many because of HOA and homeowners insurance all depends on your finances. There is plenty of retirees that have a pension and investments and social security which is a great income. I feel the cost of living all equals out.

In fact.. in 55 + communities, there is always a huge turn over in homes.. and it comes in waves, as the owners reach an age where they want or need less house and maintenance.. here on Amelia Island we do not have inventory, since we have one very small 55+ community. To your point.. too many people came to Florida "Thinking" it was cheap to live... it is not, and why should Florida be cheap? We live in Paradise. Have all new roads and bridges, the best Beaches in America. great weather. we bike, boat, fish, kayak, walk the beach, garden, 12 months a year!

@@caroleelder4836 I would partially agree. The affordability challenge at this point in time is "premium" applied to home prices (not including HOA, CDD, Bonds, etc) in the Villages. This "premium" is +$40/sqft more then the equivalent homes in surrounding communities including other +55. This amounts to $40k for every 1,000 sqft of house. This is an additional uplift of +$20/sqft from the prior "premium" the Villages realized before COVID. Do not forget that other associated costs are derived from the purchase price (i.e. property tax, insurance rates & premiums, etc) not to mention mortgage interest and potential mortgage insurance. Until home prices come back to historical appreciation trends the "Villages Lifestyle Tax" will be significant. For example, the median home size in the Villages is 1,600 sqft. This means your "one-time Lifestyle Tax" is $64,000 with an annual reoccurring fee (i.e. from increased associated costs) in the neighborhood of $1,000 annually. I will not go too far down the path of how this impacts one's retirement plan, but I will advice people to spend some time and effort assessing how this will impact your plan. I ran the number through my plan and was very surprised at the long-term costs. Remember your retirement will be hopefully +20 years. Of course all of this will continue to add fodder to the debate "is it really worth it" which is purely subjective.

the media has really jumped on the Florida insurance rates.. It's basically part of their "Florida bad" disinfo... Our insurance on a 1.5 million dollar home in NY was $5,800 per year. our coastal Florida home of 2.5 million is $7,100 per year. This is for a 5000 SF home on each... Rates are not inflated, they are related to home replacement costs and environmental factors.

I don't know what it is about your podcast that keeps us coming back and we've been watching from day one. There's something comforting in hearing about the reality of your lives in the Villages, the good, the bad and never ugly. Thanks for your efforts in allowing your audience into your lives and sharing your experiences. Have you ever thought about doing a walking video through some of the different villages in the Villages? We watch a live stream where a young man walks though the streets of Manhattan and other places. That's what gave me the idea. And you'd be getting some exercise at the same time.

You are the Kelly and Mark of The Villages! 👩‍❤️‍👨 If you remember, you inspired me to look for a golf cart community in my own state of Hawaii, and I found it! I have a golf cart and secure my little six pound doggy in a doggy car seat, more of a cube, from Amazon. It was only $20. It came with straps, a harness clip and a zippered compartment in the front where I put the leash, dog bags and a collapsible water dish. If you have a small dog, I can recommend this product. And Tom, sending you heartfelt best wishes as you navigate this challenging time. 🙏🏼

In the Chicago area most people are happy for 45 degree temperatures from December through February. 2 days ago when I took my doggie out at 7 am it was 5 degrees outside...it was a brief outing. Fortunately the Chicago area has just had about an inch of snow since mid-November, so we have been fortunate in that regard.

If anyone in TV lives near a golf course or natural area and has young children or pets be on a constant lookout for coyotes. In my city Phoenix children have been bitten and many dogs and cats have been attacked and some eaten by coyotes. Coyotes can jump or scramble over backyard fences to get at pets or children. At night I have seen them travel 29:52 29:52 at least 3 blocks in neighborhoods from the open area they stay in during the day.

Hello Jerry we also had homeowners insurance from The Villages. Our insurance was $1900 and went up to $2300. We are in the Village of Woodbury and only been here 14 months. We shopped around and got our Homeowners insurance through KIN for a little over $1600. Our house is 3 bedrooms and 2 baths but not as big as yours. 1400 sq ft. KIN did have to send out someone out to inspect the roof and check the inside.

The chill map has nothing to do with people. It's published by the Univ. of Florida for Gardeners to use in selecting plants. Fruit trees need a min. amount of temperatures at 45 degrees or below to set fruit. Hence, you should look at the "chill hours" a tree requires to set fruit along with your planting zone (9B in The Villages) the Chill map is the chill hours for the entire season. for example.. UF along with UGA have developed fruit trees like apples and peaches that require less chill hours. Look for "low Chill" fruit trees before planting.. the 500 Chill hours sounds like a lot.. but in fact it's about 3 hours of temps below 45 degrees a season.. all of these hours are at night, between dec. and feb. nothing to do with our average daytime temperatures.

Very nice show. When you talked about seats and restraints in golf carts it reminded me of an old car I used to have. I had a 1972 Olds Cutlass with a vinyl bench seat in the front. I called it the COD seat. It stood for come over dear when you turned right. Karla would slide into me if her seatbelt was loose on that slippery vinyl. It was black and it was always good for a rear end frying when it got hot out. The meatloaf sandwich was good at Havana.

There is a real estate agent I have been following for about 4 years now on KZbin. Each week she gives an update on homes listed on the MLS in The Villages. In early 2022, that number would be 60 or so homes. Then towards the end of 2022 the number of homes for sale started a steady increase. Now in December 2024 there are approximately 540 preowned Villages homes listed on the MLS. That does not include new & preowned homes listed by Properties of The Villages. I now have a Villages MLS agent sending me listings of homes in my price range & in the locations in The Villages I specified. Right now there are about 55 homes in that category. I hope the buyer's market holds out until July, 2025 as I hope to have sold my townhouse in suburban Chicago by then.

Hoping homeowner's insurance on a patio villa will be not be more than $1,500 per year. As Florida does not have a state income tax, that will help to offset the increase I will pay in homeowner's insurance. In Illinois we pay 4.95% state income tax.

BTW, we own our home but we're actively looking in SE Georgia, just across the sate line, for a home. Florida has priced us out of our own home. I wish out state gov would focus on us residents rather than national politics. We're in major Doo-Doo crisis mode and people are beginning to wake up to the serious nature of our problems.

@@MexicoBeachFloridaLiving SW Ga here..45 minutes from Tallahassee. $1900 for 2500 sq ft house, $1000 for 2 cars liability insurance. It’s near several small towns with usual shopping but nearest large hospital is in Talla. About an hour+ from beaches but quiet low crime area. Job opportunities limited but for retirees I would think it’s a good choice. Not particularly golf cart or bike friendly but nature walks abundant. If selling my 3 br 21/2 bath home on 2 acres would sell under $170,000.

I believe Linda is upset at Jerry often. There is no way Linda ever said anything sour that required an apology. She is sweet as pecan pie.

There are alot of homes for sale in The Villages. Due to high insurance, taxes and GOOD healthcare prevents a move for us. We stayed a month and did love our time but have to make good choices. To be fair, insurance is up all over the state of Florida.

Geico tried to almost double my auto premium even though I had no violations..accidents..claims ever with them... So a friend said to call State Farm and they gave me full insurance at the old Geico price and have been with them for 2 yrs now and they don't raise it up a bunch every year like Geico did...

Jerry & Linda Hello! I watched the insurance rate show but missed any reasons why they might be higher in the Villages. I’ll be moving there shortly but wonder if the roof composition of asphalt versus cement tie downed tiles is the reason? I have impact windows, doors and cement tile roof, 1508 sq ft house 25 miles from the ocean, and pay $1000 yearly. The quality of construction is a sticking point for me as is the high cost of the homes.

There should be a law in the Village that all dogs must be seat belted or tethered in a golf cart! Speaking of Golf carts you forgot to mention insurance on Golf carts!

My house insurance for the next year went up to nearly $3800. It is a designer around 1900 sq. ft. but the roof will be 15 years old and many insurance companies won't cover us. My property tax was $5800. I thought California was expensive but I think Florida is catching up.

Wow...your homeowners insurance is 1/2 of mine on the Treasure Coast in Florida!!! Does yours include the homestead deduction? Also we live in a golf club community and my husband broke a window; HOA told him it was the homeowner's responsibility (like you said, because they bought a house on a golf course) but hubby's a good guy and paid for it anyway.

I'm so glad I retired in a great state, that WAS NOT FLORIDA. Must suck to live in Florida. I really dodged a bullet in my retirement. I also live in a private community and our roads are private so golf carts are common. We have an 18 hole championship golf course, a big lake for my jet ski, riding trails, and indoor and outdoor pools. Only downside. The HOA fees are $245 each month. What a rip off.

Just an FYI: If a golfer breaks a window in your house while golfing, the golfer is generally considered liable for the damage as they are responsible for the consequences of their shot, especially if it was deemed a negligent or unreasonable play; however, the specifics of who is liable can vary depending on local laws and the circumstances of the situation. I generally order a Cuban sandwich if it’s offered on the menu. Occasionally, they are a bit spicy. Not my preference. Did I ever mention, Hoosier pie is a specialty of mine. I’m so sorry about your sister’s husband. I wish him only good things.
