    Do any of the builders build hurricane proof homes? It'll be a shame when a cat 5 levels that place. That's the one thing that makes me hesitant to move to FL.

  • @thomtillier
    @thomtillierАй бұрын

    Hurricanes are a risk for sure. Im from the midwest and Tornados are a bigger risk in my opinion because you dont know theyre coming. With the Miami Dade Hurricane build requirements, all the homes being built are stronger and more resilient to hurricanes and even come with hurricane shutters(even though you will probably never use them) Also Impact glass is nice and helps calm the nerves. Keep in mind, if you buy a home near the water, the risk is higher, prices are higher etc... If you buy a home more inland, you significantly reduce the risk.

    Actually working on a new video regarding this. It is confusing in FishHawk, but here is the breakdown. FishHawk Ranch and it's amenities are for FishHawk Ranch only. Fishhawk Ranch WEST - has their own pool and "Lake House" community center. Fish Hawk Trails (yes two words for Fish Hawk) is a totally separate development and has no access, also Channing Park that neighbors Fishhawk Ranch has their own. Everyone within FishHawk Ranch has access to FishHawk Ranch's 4 amenity centers. Starling Club, Osprey Club, Aquatic Center and Hawk Park. Hope this helps!! If you need anything, I'm here.

    Selling the Bright Future Program is 👎👎👎👎👎 The program has stipulations that do not include GED earners and requires students to earn a certain GPA and SAT/ACT Scores. Also, it is also a lottery program. NO guarantee that a student will get the scholarship. I left Lakeland because of lack opportunities, lack of diversity and the poor education system. We live in NY now and our teen gets a full ride to any state college/university (including schools at Cornell University) with a GED and no ACT/SAT scores needed through the Excelsior Scholarship. Florida Southern College is a PRIVATE school with literally no connections for employment.

  • @livingintampatv
    @livingintampatv4 ай бұрын

    Hi!! I just noticed this... sorry. Yes, you are right, does not include GED and the student has to get good grades, good test scores and also community volunteer hours, but if you do all of that, you are GUARANTEEd the scholarship. Not a lottery process. I appreciate the feedback, and I did move to Florida for this program, so I did extensive research.

  • @made432
    @made4324 ай бұрын

    it is still not worth it to be honest. Why go through all that volunteer hours and extra work to potentially get a state funded scholarship to attend a subpar college in Lakeland FL. The only colleges worth it in Florida is UF and FIU because of their connections and academics. No the scholarship is not guaranteed; it is even stated on the Florida state website. The excelsior scholarship in NY gives a full ride to students on top of TAP (state aid) and Pell Grants. NYS has top schools and top employers. The only requirements is the parents make less than 125k a year and the student works in NY state for the amount of years of scholarship. Which is fine because they are far more opportunities and high paying jobs in NY than down south. My teen has interned at two top Fortune 500 companies and will graduate with no debt from SUNY Stonybrook within the engineering department. Mind you, he is a GED recipient with no SAT/ACT scores nor did he volunteer for the scholarship.
