Wellen Park, Venice / North Port - What to know about Wellen Park

[@Oglulubell]

That’s why I like Venice. It’s a little more quiet. Not much by way of traffic. No crazy rush hours.

[@buffaloman5042]

I live in this area the county commissioners allowed it to be high density..very sad to see this ranch area that was home to bobcat deer and occasional Florida panther to be paved over..its a huge loss of habitat and will be developed right next to Myakka state forest

[@JonnyNelson-gs9gm]

Wellen Park is located in North Port, Florida.

I follow you, and I own a home in West Bradenton. Just one Funk saying high to another Funk. 👍

[@marimercy14]

I hate HOA'S. Would never buy anywhere with one either. Prefer land with space between houses. Privacy and freedom

[@TroyFunkBroker]

Thank you for sharing - many people feel the same way.

[@KarenHernandez-rm6je]

We recently visited a friend in Venice . Stayed in North Port and loved the Wellen Park farmers market on Sunday morning! Do you have anymore videos on North Port?

[@patschuster9619]

Thank you for all the information. We are moving that way late this year.

Thank you - I would value the opportunity to connect when you are ready :)

You think high $300k's is a deal? That is a lot of money for a 1,400-1,700 sq ft home on postage stamp lot! Another overpriced development! Let's see what happens to all these large developments in the next year plus!

Thanks for your feedback

[@BlackBirdieGolf]

We want to live near wellen park because of the schools and toll brothers community. We can always drive to Sarasota, Tampa, Naples. We just want our dream home in a good school district.

[@scubious]

Prices are still insane!

[@karnevil9959]

Due to the closer proximity to the coast I would imagine the insurance costs to be higher than Lakewood Ranch. Rising insurance costs also spills over to HOA fees.

[@theodoregibbons4615]

I disagree. Given its location, homes are quite pricey.

[@stevewalther2293]

Absolutely no middle class here.

[@diezales7268]

Oh yes ,,just for un brainless people

[@brihanwoolman2217]

Plus HOA, some with CCD tax, don’t forget the homeowners insurance and property taxes.

[@MsForeverpink]

Could you do a Florida Keys video on there market?

[@TroyFunkBroker]

Thank you for your feedback - Yes, I have plans to cover areas all over Florida.

[@stevewalther2293]

The whole town is a nursing home...

[@whattheflorida7159]

​@@stevewalther2293only cause they making it that way. All the old people moved out and all the young people moving here now are all living in streets and woods due to places like this that won't allow people under 55 to live in homes!!!!! Which now after listening to they're idol Yelawolf I'm making mula off of they're mis opportunity 😊 thank God!

[@jazzyflorida3757]

I prefer Lakewood Ranch or even better Parrish closer to Tampa, St Pete, and LWR. Same builders better prices in Parrish

[@TroyFunkBroker]

Thank you for your feedback

[@claudiahansen4938]

Good coverage. Any rumors of Trader Joe's coming to WP?

[@justinriley6012]

Michael ("Get Fit so you don't get Hit") Onello - GREAT TO HEAR from you! Hope you are well? If you ever visit Sarasota again, let's connect. Are you still in Palm Springs? My lady (girlfriend) and I are going to LA & Santa Barbara in the next couple weeks.

@@TroyFunkBroker Yes I am...Rancho Mirage...Look me up when your out this way. Absolutely, if I come down or if I buy a property in FL ....I'll look you up for sure..!

[@DancingQueenie]

45 minutes to Sarasota? They better be making 41 a 10-lane superhighway. Add another 60,000 people (120,000 cars) and nobody gets to Sarasota in under 2 hours.

[@270kenritt]

There are FUNKS all over eastern Penn😄

[@nellyjohnson7316]

Does Wellen Park even have a police department?

[@davidgreely5797]

Yes, police and fire department in a combined building close to downtown Wellen Park.

[@AprilTheAdventureAddict]

North Port Police and Fire/EMS… it’s not its own city.. it’s actually in the city of North Port

[@danieldesimonedanny1827]

For me Sarasota county is a no,no. I'm in a pretty much flyover county. Low crime,low taxes close to the water.
