I lived in new port Richie for four years at which my spouse died and I had to return to New York. Since then, I’ve been getting my finances fixed and plan to return to Florida some day depending what COVID does next. Thank you for the drive around movie, it shows just how big a place you’re living in. At this time, I live in a manufactured home in Saratoga Springs, New York. Last winter we had more than four feet of actual snow on the ground! Most decks and shrubs were almost missing! If I can figure out how to send that picture in this letter, I will.

    The lot rents are almost always much higher in the over 55 parks, mainly because they usually offer far more amenities for the retired folks than regular developments. That big golf course, the swimming pool, etc, all cost a lot of money to run. if you're not interested in golfing or swimming or other outside the home activities a park like this is not for you. You'd be paying for things you'd never take advantage of.

    @Damnit Bobby You sound like a park owner. When one spouse dies, the other has to sell and go live with one of their kids because they can't afford the park rent and other bills with one social security check. That happens frequently in Florida. The park is beautiful and I would have no problem living in a mobile home, buttttttttt the park rent is absolutely outrageous. It's cheaper to buy a stick built home and pay cheap taxes on your house then to pay $750.00-$850.00 a month on park rent. The park owners are millionaires because of it. One more thing, you can keep the alligators and the rest of the wild life and BUGS. Forgot the SNAKES!!!!!!!!

At that age in our lives, we're not looking to make a profit, but are wanting the best quality of life we can get for the time we will have left on this Earth. We're taking the steps now to ensure we can afford the lot rent, or taxes if we buy land owned.

    I remember some years ago a gator dragged an old lady into a pond tossed up and down like a rag doll then took her under. Gone. True fact.

    Hi guys. Thanks for a wonderful video. My wife and I are considering this community. Question- what is main difference or advantage of leasing or owning your land? Thank you

    Never lease, NEVER. Go into a co-op or condominium association park where you own your land. In a rental park the land can be sold out from underneath you.

    Hi Chuck, Thank you for the tour around your community, my husband and I throughly enjoyed it. We are seriously considering moving to such a place, and your video gave us an insight into life at a 55+ community. Could you possibly give us an estimate of monthly fees? Sincerely, John & Janice Sullivan
