My wife and I visited Citrus Springs Fl in July 2023. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at how clean, upscale it seemed for central Florida and the plethora of amenities for the residence. Everything just felt really beautiful and yes there are million dollar homes there too. It felt safe and I would love to camp there one day.

I've got a country retreat in Citrus County not far from Citrus Springs. It's nice to get away from Tampa Bay now and then, but it doesn't take long to get bored in Citrus County. I can't even get high-speed internet where I'm at and my neighbors are paying something like $160 a month for satellite internet. If you need to go to a hospital, I hope you can take the time to go to Ocala because I've heard too many bad things about the hospital in Inverness. Unless you are in one of the cities, emergency services might take a while to get to you. Since it's a place to get away from it all, it seems to be a haven for people who want to get away from it all for the wrong reasons. As for restaurants, I like Stumpknockers on the river, Oscar Penn's in Inverness and the Front Porch Restaurant in Dunnellon.

Hello Ryan, Thanks for your time in making this video. I noticed that the house under construction in the video has no power. I didn't see any power poles nearby either. Does the county run the lines after the impact fees are paid ? Thanks , love the videos.

@ryanfowlerFL

7 ай бұрын

You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. It's great that you're observant and curious about the construction process. The absence of power in a house under construction is quite common. Typically, the power lines and connections are installed by the local utility company after the necessary permits are obtained and fees, including impact fees, are paid. The specific process and timing can vary depending on local regulations and the utility company in your area. In many cases, the builder or homeowner will work with the utility company to coordinate the installation of power lines and meters once the construction reaches a certain stage or is nearing completion. It's essential to reach out to your local utility company or the county building department to get precise information on how and when power will be connected to a new construction project. They can provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information for your specific location. Thanks for watching, and I appreciate your support!

I just moved to Citrus Springs from NYC, and while it's a nice city, it's a little too boring for my taste. I'm looking to move more populated areas like Inverness or Ocala. I'm single, so nightlife is important to me.

Citris sounds a smidgen too laid back for us. What areas do you recommend looking into that are a minimum of one hour from the beach- west coast, close to a major airport, about probably a 30 min miles or so away. Somewhere that has resonable property tax rates. Just received our first property tax bill in Charlotte County and found out the rate is 1.17% so our bill was $4,000 on a home we paid 327,000 for. Also wanting an area that is not in a flood zone, with hopefully less Hurricanes than South Florida. Any thoughts of cities to look into.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's true that the relationship between job opportunities, wages, and housing prices can influence the real estate market. However, it's important to note that various factors contribute to housing prices, including supply and demand, interest rates, and local economic conditions. While it's true that affordability is a concern for many, there are still options available for those interested in homeownership. Working with a knowledgeable real estate professional can help you navigate the market, explore financing options, and find properties that align with your budget and preferences. If you have specific questions or concerns about the current real estate market or the home-buying process, feel free to reach out. I'm here to help provide information and guide you through the journey of finding the right home for your needs. You can reach me at RyanFFowler@gmail.com

My realtor told me that if I buy a home in Citrus County, be prepared to have my property taxes triple or quadruple from the original owner. Why??? Citrus County Property Appraiser (CROOKS) resets the Assessed value of the property to Full Market Value (in most cases.) Example- if the previous owner was paying $1000 a year in property taxes, the new owner may see the new property taxes raised to $3500-$4000 per year. Again, this does not happen in all cases, but why take that chance? If you live on a retirement pension, good luck. Stick with Levy county or Marion (Dunnellon is much nicer than any town in Citrus County.) Marion County did not raise my taxes by much when I bought my home years ago. Their annual property tax increases are reasonable, about 5%. Levy county taxes are dirt cheap, and you get acres of land and privacy.

@ryanfowlerFL

Your realtor probably is trying to keep you in their area that they sell in. Doesn’t matter where you buy a home in FL your property taxes will be reassessed and you will be taxed at the assessed value of the property. I encourage you to research property tax rates in Citrus County vs. wherever else you’d like to buy. I would bet that Citrus County’s tax rate is less than wherever else you’re looking. It is definitely less than Marion County.

I was really scared as I am moving to Citrus Springs 🤣 I am moving there to be an hour from my family and I absolutely love the quiet rural life.

Most "ok" places are only open Wen to Sat. 5) You want to work in the back office of a nice company. 6) You hate 4 way stops and 35 speed zones. 7) You like to visit a beach that is not a NYC block long. "Looking at you fort Island!" 8) You want to meet a young nice Christian girl at church. They are mostly retired... 9) You want to do online dating. Slim pickings out here! 10) You like Mexican food but not Los Magueyes. They have a monopoly out here! 11) You do not like having the sheriff blowing up your phone every time there is a storm. This SOB does not care what time of night it is! 12) You do not like scallops nor the people who flood this area every season. 13) You like being able to travel to your house after a storm. That SOB who likes to blow up your phone also likes blocking off entire roads in and out of crystal river! 14) You like being in the woods alone. The day you build you might be alone but NOT FOR LONG! 15) You do not want more churches than gas stations. 16) You do not want a sunpass to get to Tampa.
