Shopping For A House In Orlando Florida!

[@smsaly]

A mud room is where the washer dryer would be connected to the garage. The screened in porch area is also called a lanai. I did like the concrete wall around the pool at the 2nd house. But those kitchen cabinets!! YUCK! Definitely shows the house age! That definitely needs an upgrade! Location! Location! Location! That's what you're paying for on the 2nd house. Good luck JoJo!

[@jray9661]

I would love to move to Orlando so much and raise my family there. It’s so beautiful and so many things to do. Literally paradise.

[@CharlieSerena]

The thing over the stove is a water facet to fill pots

[@JoJosWorld]

Thank you 😂

[@zanetherealtor]

Much appreciated hahaha

[@eringage5641]

Great video! In the first house, the thing above the stove is a pot filler! It lets you fill pots with water on the stove instead of carrying it back and forth from the sink.

[@JoJosWorld]

House hunting - JoJo edition lol, should we do another one?!

[@chriscanavan7434]

Yeesss definitely

[@jeffgrube9448]

That 'contraption' was a pot filler. Its a cold water faucet for filling pots, like for boiling pasta.

[@DaisyWorld]

this video was so much fun and so different! I wanna see more

[@JohnSmith-dk8nq]

Bro! I would go with the second one! that pool area for tops the third house! Yes, its outdated, but you can fix that. Zayne is right about the third one though, tear down that wall, itll look so much better.

[@michellevantongeren7806]

Jojo the thing over the stove is a pot filler. It is to put water so you don’t have to water from the sink.

[@Lovesapuzzle]

That contraption is a water faucet commonly called a pot filler.

[@mikepco4434]

Find a fixer upper in celebration. Great buys.

[@amandabryant1716]

House 3 for sure. The thing above the stove in the first house is a pot filler. It’s really helpful if the sink is far away from the stove so you don’t have to carry big heavy pots of water around.

[@FairyChild_For_Freedom-Justice]

No but the second house Kristen I mean a lot of updating and I know Orlando they used the gray pipes that have been outlawed so check those pipes in that house. It's hard to get homeowners insurance with that gray piping so you'll have to do immediate upgrade on Plumbing not mention that kitchen total and redo

[@GeradTroje]

The thing in the kitchen allows you to fill your pots with water without having to lug it back and forth from the sink. You can just pull that thing over the pot and turn it on to fill it up. then slide it back out of the way for storage.

[@susanmajor2049]

Beautiful home! The gadget over the stove is a Pot Filler. You put your pot under it to fill your pots with water. This prevents you from having to carry a pot full of water across the kitchen.

[@MikkiandtheMouse]

Happy house hunting, this was fun. The thing above the stove is a pot filler, basically it's a water faucet above the stove to fill your pots with water without having to transfer them from the sink.

[@JamesDally]

When I had to make a 'home' decision some time ago, I wound up buying into a mobile home park. I owned the M.H. and could do what I wanted with it (within reason) and the price was VERY reasonable! The downside: paying the space rent to the landlord. That park had a clubhouse, pool table room, swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi tub for 10, and lots of green areas. I eventually sold it for MUCH more than I paid and moved to another state. So, just for the heck of it, I'd suggest looking at some mobile homes; you'll be surprised how efficient they are and well laid out with enough room to feel comfortable. Look at the double wide units to start; maybe a triple wide as well. Peace JoJo, you'll get there.

[@dazzlingdizney9335]

I always love watching realtor walkthroughs. It’s even more fun with Jojo.

[@suziq4565]

Keep in mind Jo-Jo…you keep saying “I don’t have kids so I don’t need that twin bedroom”. But you do need a home office, so you probably need at LEAST a 2 bedroom. And wouldn’t it be nice to have a guest bedroom so that family & friends can come stay with you?

[@treyatl2006]

Love this video. I think it’s smart to buy a home. It will pay off in the long run. Also, don’t discard the homes that may not be updated. You can always renovate a kitchen and make it your own. It would also be great content for your video. Also, this current market allows you to negotiate the sales price and maybe even contribution to closing cost. Good luck

[@russelledgington6540]

Vista Lake neightborhood is welcoming off of Lee Vista Blvd.

[@adaespinosa4672]

Wow! I really loved how Zayne explains everything about housing and definitely considering him to be my future Realtor. God Bless him and many more success for him. He is very good and self explanatory on every topic. Love it!!

[@SunPrincipe]

Also you can renovate the kitchen or bedrooms. Don't shop based on furniture or interior design. Think of the space as a blank canvas. Create what you want. Even if you renovate one room at a time over a couple of years you can slowly make any house your own signature Style.

[@pamelacaspersen1344]

Beautiful house, the fixture over the cooktop is a pot filler. Very convenient to have water at the cooktop.

[@kimkrentcil4581]

came to see if someone responded- they def don't cook

[@MJD123]

Favorite moments: “But I don’t own any kids” 🤣 and “As a single guy… well… I mean… kinda…” 🤣🤣 This was interesting to see. Zayne seems like a good guy to have on your side for it! Good luck!!

[@ellstonwalkinginthecoolwit9467]

love the first! house

[@leosgrl88]

The tool in the kitchen over the oven is a pot filler. When you need to fill up a big pot with water for pasta, that is what you use it for.

[@bomadfoodandtravel6425]

Yes. Do more home search videos.

[@JoJosWorld]

I had fun hahahaha

[@deanatrabucco7553]

16:09 “for the kids I don’t own”. Cracked me up!!!!!!!

[@LadyJamers]

I was thinking that Dr. Phillips with proximity to everything and whole that kitchen did need an over haul, it, to me is the perfect house to live out your life. I love watching HGTV’s house hunters. Good luck with all your house hunting and thank you Zane for showing us everything.

[@zanetherealtor]

Of course! HGTV Jojo style 😉

[@thomashard5452]

THIS WAS FUN! Do more like this!

[@allireynolds1430]

I love that your sharing this experience with us! Based on my experience in buying a home near the Walt Disney World area, you want to look at polk county. It's a lot more affordable and you can find some amazing properties with ridiculous amenities that you can't get for a good price in Shaq's old hood. Check out Balmoral resort in Haines City, Championsgate and most definitely Reunion. They have ridiculous houses for a lot less than what you would expect and remember the HOA is an expense you have to pay the entire time you own the home so vet them. Make sure you can do what you want with your property when you want to. I'm assuming you will have a neon sign in your front yard stating that it's JoJos playhouse. Not all HOAs will find that appealing. Good luck with your house hunt!

[@libbyhawkins4328]

That last house, it's a sun room, not a mud room LOL

[@Mr.AllStar23]

Man this is awesome I even learned somethings in this vlog appreciate the info Zane !!! And honestly , if I was going house hunting in orlando I would go with the third house I mean its affordable and easy to split payments down the middle if you're bringing on roommates not only that its right in the mix of all the theme parks , food areas , grocery stores , & gas stations for those who have to fill up excessively.. I mean plus the house itself is very spacious and has a real nice home vibe to it that you can create into your own. And its in a nice chill relaxed neighborhood which is a major plus if your about community and living in an environment where you and your kids and roommates will be safe!!!

[@MollyFitzBrown]

Looking around is fun for sure! I’d recommend that you start small (since you’re a “single person” haha) but if you’re serious, talk to a bank about a mortgage and they’ll tell you everything you would need to know about $ to put down and what your future payments would be so you know your exact price range to keep searching in :)

[@TripNWithRed]

We love your channel JoJo. You have certainly been successful here on KZbin and will continue to grow. Don't be in a huge hurry to purchase a home though without a large down-payment to bring the payment way down. A home requires a lot of time maintaining the yard, damage from Hurricanes, etc. Your channel and all of the social media platforms require tons of your time so is a house good right now? I'd definitely suggest a gated community. You don't want random people showing up to your home.

[@JoJosWorld]

Thank you! Will do!

[@hlipps11]

I see your points and they’re valid, but I have a different viewpoint. You don’t actually need a large down payment to purchase a house. Assuming JoJo qualifies for a conventional loan, the program allows only 3% down. However, Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) would be applied, meaning JoJo would have an additional cost added to his monthly mortgage payment to protect the lender if he stopped making payments (defaulted). Once you’ve reached 20 percent equity - either through paying down your loan balance over time or through rising home values - you can contact your loan servicer about removing PMI from your mortgage. Paying an apartment complex is the worst financial decision you could make if you are financially responsible. In Orlando, you can find homes that have cheaper monthly “rent” (mortgage payment) than what he’s paying at his current apartment. If he had a friend move in, he could split his mortgage payment and his friend would pay him his “rent”. So, instead of paying an apartment complex the roommate pays JoJo. Literally his friend is helping him pay down is mortgage, but has a place to live.. it’s a win-win! Also, I have a house in Orlando. The yard work is very manageable, my house didn’t experience any issues during the hurricane, and there’s no problems. If JoJo decides to buy a house, he should start small and work his way up. Sure, it may not be in Windermere or Doctor Philips, but he has options. I would never rent an apartment in my life ever again. But also, stay away from condos and townhomes.. the HOA fees are ridiculous in Orlando.

[@Jthebucket]

Good luck dude! I started watching the Chanel on your first wish cruise. Since then, your content has always made me happy. You deserve a great house! Continue doing good in life and making other lives brighter!

[@JoJosWorld]

You're the best!

[@Elyse1997]

I have always loved looking at model homes and seeing what is new. I wasn't looking when I found my house actually! I saw a model that I liked, found out it was in my price range and a lot had just opened up! Have fun looking and try to figure out what you like, Don't like, etc. It will help when you are ready to sign the documents. :)

[@goldenpups1958]

I loved in Williamsburg with my three WALT DISNEY World Cast Member friends back in 1982. I loved it. I lived there and worked for The Mouse from 1982-1985. Then moved closer to Greater Orlando.

[@LSUmom]

Happy house hunting, JoJo! There's definitely a learning curve with so much to know when purchasing a home. Take your time, and you'll know when it's the right house for you. 🏡 Great vlog! I loved seeing the houses!

[@JoJosWorld]

Haha glad you enjoyed!

[@lovestodive1879]

I'm retired and would love to move to Orlando, hubby, however is not retired so there is that. When we were looking for a house we did the following: Hubby told me it would be a year before he had what he wanted to put down saved, he told me his max budget, we decided our must haves and our nice to haves. I looked for a year, only open houses (he also didn't want a realtor and I used to work for a real estate company). While I did look at houses in our max budget, I didn't seriously consider any unless they were $10,000 below the budget. After the year, I narrowed it down and took him to see two or three. We got our house $40,000 below the budget he set.

[@TennileJames]

Minor correction. That is not a mud room but a sunroom or a Florida room. A mud room small space usually off the garage which is now being renamed to a drop zone.

[@paul_and_ashley]

Hope you find one you love! Good luck with the house hunting JoJo!

[@OmegaBahn]

The last house is very very viable. The wall structure can be decorated in a manner that will work to your style.

[@JoJosWorld]

I agree!

[@sandyb.5287]

3 bedrooms for 1 person is not bad….1 room an office the other a guest bedroom for friends and family… last house a perfect size… a good investment. You might want to rethink going in with someone though could lead to problems in the future…buy for yourself and maybe see if your friend would want to just rent a room out on a short term…

[@juliamaxwell7744]

Great in-site about Orlando area home hunting. Thank you JoJo! I like the second home because of the privacy pool. You can upgrade your appliances & cabinets at some point. Zane, Another Insta follower here!

[@WADER966]

I liked that one the best because of the privacy around the pool as well. I see equity. Look at the upgrades you could do over time and increase the value of the home. Yeah it is out dated now but think of what it could be.

[@marymahar8446]

Enclosed pool and deck was Definitely a Plus. Chose cabinets you like in the future. Might be a good home for Kyle and Casey. 😊 Number 3 Definitely was nice for the price and upgrades. That 'mudroom' could be a kick ass patio. Plus, cats would love it too!

[@stephaniepolson3503]

The second house was great, just needed updates to the kitchen and bathrooms. I can understand not wanting to deal with that especially since this would be your first place on your own. The furniture gave it that "retro" look which threw you off (which BTW was NOT professionally staged and was probably staged by the previous owner) some new modern pieces would a loooong way. The pool area was awesome.

[@gustavosuarez3096]

Best thing you can do is to get pre-approved on a home loan. That way you know how much your budget is. Also, 8nclude the homeowners insurance to the monthly payment via an escrow account. They will offer it when you are in talks with the bank. Also, keep an eye on the home loan rates. Anything under 3.25% is awesome

[@jessicaclark4922]

[@marymahar8446]

Did you and Kyle share property info?

[@BAFarls]

Jojo, I would say that you and Kyle and Dan like being room mates. I would say either you or Kyle buy a house. And that price point $550K and down payment of 20-25K I say buy a house, 3 bedroom home perfect. Keep the home in one person’s name. Then have room mates pay you rent. You realize Kyle and Dan’s rent help off set price pay of your mortgage. Older home needing renovations. Remodeling slowly in time. But a retro fixer upper.

[@tkzapp]

I would LOVE to move to Orlando! The homes there are so cheap compared to the housing market in Ontario, Canada! I don't even think there are half decent houses under $600000. Have fun house hunting and make sure to bring us along!🏠🏠 Zane, you just got a new follower on Instagram 😀

[@brianstevens802]

Great vlog idea. That 1st house was incredible but way outside my price range & too big. The 2nd house & that pool area was 🔥 but the price 😳. The 3rd is getting there the floors look great & I love that mud room. Plan ahead JoJo, you'll need space to start a family - 3 bedrooms is not that big when you think about kids & the need for your office 😃

[@SunPrincipe]

Jojo that is a faucet over the stove to fill big pots with water. It's a nice convenience.

[@stevilkinevil2205]

Don't get stuck with a home not yet anyways. You are basing buying a house because of Disney. Disney is starting to ban vlogging recently with space mountain it's just a matter of time. Save your money house prices are high. Your realtor didn't even know that was a water faucet over of the stove. House prices are way to high in the end you are going to get screwed!

Congrats my guy on your new house hunting journey and more importantly good luck. Btw that "contraption" that was on top of the stove is a pot filler for water.

[@SamanthaFl]

Dr. Phillips is all about location. Its literally in between Disney and Universal Studios. Great neighborhood. That second house is perfect for a easy refurb. The third house is close to the parks but the neighborhood is just okay. The first house is nice and pricey but that's Windermere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@kellyj.azania4371]

Obviously, I love the million dollar house best. But that's also a lot to have to keep clean. 3rd house I could totally see moving into without a doubt. 2nd house, you could make it a fixer upper bur that could take more time than you want. To me, the bonus is the pool. However it's not a deal breaker

1st house: I could move into your home and cook for the crew. I'm almost retired and can work remotely anywhere! 2nd house I like the 3/3 bedroom bathroom because it's easier to have roommates but the kitchen is too small for me so I won't live with you there. 3rd home is nicer than 2nd home so I'd go for it. Be sure to put at least 20% down payment.

[@Pravin_Yeshua_BTC]

Location Location Location 🌴 I hope you get a nice home Jo Jo. You deserve it. We got a new construction in Clermont & we love it here 17-19mins from MK. Windermere, Winter Garden, Dr Phillips are nice too. Just don’t get too much house so you can continue enjoying Disney life , traveling, & ordering Take out 😂 You don’t want a huge chunk of your income being all sucked into a mortgage. Get a fixed rate Not Adjustable, & being within 20 mins of Disney is awesome. Kyle is house hunting too. Y’all could consider doing it together & enjoying those sweet sweet property value increases. The market will tank temporarily because of rate hikes but that just allows y’all to get it at a discount. ☺️
