I love Florida. It has been great to me in the 7 years i've been here. Came here as a homeless heroin addict trying to turn my life around, met my wife, had our child and we just bought a house in Venice 5 minutes from the beach.
There's no other place I'd rather be. Coming here literally saved my life.
Thank you for the video it was very helpful. I’m making my move this summer from Chicago and I’ve been searching for a video like this. Thank you so much
Thanks You! Your Video Was So Helpful
We Are Planning To Move To Florida
From The West Coast.
FW5 thank you providing an overview of the intial finances needed when planning to move to Florida. Enjoy your weekend!
Awesome video! A lot of great information Thanks Guys! 🌴 🌞
I agree with all the numbers, I went through it all in my planning and you guys have nailed it! 😎😎😎
Thanks Cheryl! 😎😜
Yes, the forgettables is very important and something we did not plan for when we moved to Georgia from Florida. You'd be suprised how fast even things you need add up. So we made sure to add it when we moved back to Florida several years later. We always have to by new curtains because the old ones never fit the new place. We have had to by blinds as well.
Thanks for sharing this helpful info
Amazing video! Really put things into perspective for us lol🥴
Can you make a video on finding a place to live in Florida for cheeper prices please!! I’m struggling to find a place!
Same here! So desperate to move there
Amen!
325 Lubdel ave south
Great video guys!
I just arrived to florida and i'm so glad we left north California!! Thank you guys for pushing me and my family forward and answering every question I've had thru these videos! FWF CANGED MY LIFE
You’re so welcome! Glad you made it here safe! 😎🌴
Please just don’t bring your California politics down here. I was born and raised in Florida keep Florida a red state.
@@joelbeaver1093 the politics are why I'm leaving cali so don't worry
@@nolangamer9192 cool man welcome
I wasn’t trying to be a jerk. It’s just I see what’s going on in a lot of blue states and the way they vote ( democrat). And then when your states are literally burning then the people there start fleeing to other states and believe me not all but a lot of them continue to vote the same way from where they came from and it just boggles my mind.
Such helpful info!! ☀️☀️☀️
Great content FW5 very informative 🌴☀️🍊
Thank you for this video. I've been going crazy looking for videos like these to give me numbers to work with. I'm moving to Orlando from NYC. I'm still looking for an apartment though. I know it's going to cost a little less because it's only me whose moving so it's going to be a 1 bed and bath apartment utilities included with 1 car.
Great info and tips guys. I moved to south Florida in august. Rents here for a a 3/2 are over 3k also I did 2 16ft pods from pack rat and it cost me $5500. It’s a good option if you want to take you time loading and unloading l
Welcome! How are you liking Florida so far, and what part of south fl did you move to?
You guys, Javlogs, and Life Of Steph have been such a major help. Thankyou so much
I
We got rid of most of our stuff, packed the rest into a UHaul U Box for about $1500, sent it to Panana City Beach where it is stored for $90 a month until our house is ready.
Lindsey you look pretty! Love your sweater! Can't wait for your mom vlogs!
Awww you’re so sweet! Thank you so much!
Just moved here as well. Really enjoy your videos. Keep Them coming.
Welcome, and thank you so much!
@@FloridaWithFive yea been here for 4 days now just north of Orlando and so far it's great. Will be even better once the move is finally done. Came from northeast
Moving can be quite expensive. Thankfully I don't have to deal with that stuff since I'm going to be living on my own and all im bringing is my suitcases. I will have to buy furniture tho and I will be commuting either by train or plane so I have it easier than most people. Moving even as a young single person is cumbersome at least I will be prepared, and I'm only a few states north of Florida.
I have the same sweatshirt. Love Target! Great video!!
Gotta love Target!! Thank you! 😊
I can’t wait to do the math when we’re over and done with our move. I have to compare it with everything you have in these videos. My biggest plus is it’s just me and my hubby. And our dog ❤️
Great videos Were preparing to move in 5 yrs I hope from Ill Well keep watching you guys keep up great videos
Perfect timeline. Real Estate will be back to normal in 2027, it may even take a turn and be a buyers market. Good luck and you're in the right place!
Thank you! We’re happy you’re part of our CZcams family!
Moving to Tampa by July, of this year. I heard that using Amtrack does shipping also. Have you use it before or know about it?
All I'm bringing is my clothes and a few stuff things which they all can fit in my damn car. And I can drive it straight through, I have driven to New Orleans from DC before 4 times. Drove to Florida once. I probably gonna have it real cheap saving thousands and thousands of dollars. It's a big blessing in not being married and being alone in these times.
I’m just starting to mentally prepare myself for moving to FL from NC… But I really can’t do anything just yet because my lease isn’t up until Dec 22…thanks for sharing this really put things in perspective..
NC is so much better the weather is nice and the food is better
@@glyniscoleman4813 NC is ok although we get some colder weather during winter months, but not like Bmore or NYC…my goal is for warmer yr long 1. Of my reason is I’m getting older and I had an ACL replacement… with cooler weather my knees tends to ache…
The 2020 version of this video was literally our financial roadmap to moving to Florida.
If you rent a uhal you can also tow your car as an option
One big cost for us being a Disney family and the parks being 50 percent of the reason we wanted to be here is annual passes and park money which is roughly 1800 per person for annual passes. We go to the parks to grab a ride, snack and get in some walking 2-4 times a week. Which also reminds me that the car registration in florida for a Disney family also includes a Disney license plate which is a nice perk. Makes you feel less bad about spending that registration money lol. Quick money savings note from the north east if you’re coming from NY the uhaul costs can be reduced if you drive to Virginia or Pennsylvania to pick up the truck, it can save about 1200 big ones. You guys are great love your videos ! Really helped my move.
Sooo.... Would that be a good idea to buy the annual pass, get your plate, then your registration?
We did everything the same week once we arrived. Need the new license for the resident passes and you need to register and return your old state plates in a short time frame. Everyone’s budget is different so at a minimum license and registration costs will be needed quickly upon arrival which I think was 65 for the license and between 200-400 per vehicle provided you come from a state with higher sales tax if not you pay the difference of the sales tax for your vehicle too. I think all in all moving, tags, license, rental costs if you aren’t buying right away and passes for the fam and incidentals were about 25k all in for a family of 4 So budget according to you expectations and enjoy !
So most places require you to have a job in Florida before you can rent or buy a place in Florida.
So what do we do? I guess Live in a hotel until we find a job? That adds up the cost for moving to Florida.
I work at a plant for Volvo but there aren't any Volvo plants in Florida. So I'll be looking for jobs.
I love your grateful dead shirt
what area would be good for a single parent to move to that is on a budget but needing a safe neighborhood!
26 ft from Vegas to Florida in September is 5400 average… I gotta deal and got it down to 4K just worried gas is going to stay this high
If you have 2 cars you could pay for a car mover, rent a u haul and tow the other vehicle.
We’ve moved across the pacific to Hawaii, then coast to coast.
The biggest advice is take an inventory of everything you think you want to take….and try to destroy the sunk cost fallacy as well as emotional attachment.
Donate the things you don’t need….sell some stuff. Then just bring the things you truly need.
The smartest thing is to scorch the earth. Ship the family heirlooms but move down with nothing.
Think of a person who spends 15k to move items that most likely can be purchased new after the move.
Just get into a minimalist mind set before the move.
I think the only thing that is a necessity is mattresses and clothes. Fit it all in a small pod and just buy what you need when you get there.
I love the opening song to your videos - who does that song
I do! 😜
@@FloridaWithFive amazing I was searching trying to find it on ITUNES 🤣
I agree. The intro song is the best. Love it.
Wait did you say you moved back to Wisconsin from Florida? Why? If you don’t mind me asking? We are moving to Florida from Kenosha Wisconsin
I laughed loud as hell when you assumed we are moving from the same distance as you than say wisconsin lol. I'm in gb rn and been wanting to move back to FL for years
Lol! Small world, isn’t it?! What is holding you back from moving to Florida?
@@FloridaWithFive atm money. Im saving 10 k to move back after next summer and sell my home
Hi guys now I need your honest opinion on this. So we are going to be in the Clearwater area around March 1st with my husband's new job and everyone has said if all possible to rent starting off until we can get out and explore neighborhoods and schools, etc..So, my question is would you think staying in our camper would be a good idea for the 1st 2 months 🤔?! We just have one child (6 yrs old) our camper is newer and about 33 ft. It's gonna be tight quarters but thought it might work for a couple months instead of selling it now?! Plz give me your thoughts. I was thinking of homeschooling my daughter for the last 2 months of her school year instead of switching this late in the year?! Also, I was so excited about moving to Florida and now that we get closer to the date my anxiety is off the hook with all the things that could go wrong 🙉😅is this normal 😅. This cost of living is crazy right now! It's scary to me! Thank u so much for taking the time to answer 💗 my questions it means a whole lot 🥳
We love the idea of living in the camper for a couple short months rather than finding a short term rental! Also, at your daughters age, we don’t really see a downside to homeschooling for the first couple of months-especially if you are living in the camper!
The anxiety is normal! Make sure to catch Lindsey’s new segment she is going to do starting next Friday. She will be going live around lunchtime to talk with the ladies! 😊
Let us know if you have any other questions! Also, if you need a realtor in the Clearwater area, please send us a message on Facebook/Instagram or an email! We know great realtors throughout the state and can get you connected!
Amazing video. Would $20,000-$25,000 be good enough to have to move to a 2 bedroom apartment for my wife and I?
Yes! We still recommend having jobs lined up though!
No it isn’t, Florida with five is BSing you. Unless you want to live up at the Florida Georgia border or the swamp land, your not getting ANY bedroom apartment for anything less then 40,000 a year. And it’s only getting more expensive as people continue to move here.
@@tylerkriesel8590 im 3 months late to this comment, but the commenter above you was asking if that amount is enough for the INITIAL move in to the apartment. Not yearly income.
Post office box if you need it $60 for 3 months
Wow for the cost of moving your furniture I would just sell what I have and move less and buy new down there might break even….. planning on moving within 18 months. Still have not found an area we prefer however in the search for jobs and housing
Yeah, I didn’t move with a moving truck so I threw away my bed and left my couch with my parents. I was sad about departing with those things, along with most of my clothes, but more excited about moving to Florida.
The problem with not moving with your furniture is that lately it’s been taking months to get your furniture delivered after buying new…depending on where you’re buying from. We moved some of our furniture like our bed and our couch.
I literally only have a TV to with me lol i guess I won't need to have that much money. I was thinking about 5 to 6k would be enough for me to start off
Did I hear you guys moved back to WI??
We did, but now we are back in Florida.
Just from living here for a couple weeks now I’ve realized that Florida’s one of those states where cost of living can be very cheap but also very expensive depending on where you are in it! And as for moving, I threw away and left back a lot of my stuff with my parents, took a plane, and paid $850 to get my car transported here from Texas. I then stayed in an Airbnb for a couple weeks but now am in a cheap motel.
What areas are you looking to stay in?
Need a job in Florida before being accepted to rent or buy a place. So I guess motels are the way to go until we find jobs. What motel are you staying at that is cheap?
@@TheDisBeat Sorry just saw the replies. And my friends who had moved here already moved to Deltona which is east of Orlando, so closer to there.
@@caseyjc5 oh awesome. We are looking everywhere online then coming down to visit the areas we have interest in
Do Air bnbs allow.cats
With a 20f U-Haul do you need CDL.
No you do not
Just came back from Florida and if you don’t have a pool or a working AC you will be miserable during the spring / summer lol 😂 also drivers LOVE to either tailgate the sh*t out of you or cut you off. often. The customer service is pretty good at restaurants. Say good bye to CALI freeway traffic though! Most of the time the freeways or highways are moving! But there’s a catch! You have to pay tolls!! Big change for Californians as that sh*t is hardly seen here. Oh and good luck finding any food trucks or tacos , burritos Mexican food in general for my fellow Californians. Also I saw no Vons or Ralph’s stores. They have this weird place named Publix lol . This is downtown Orlando I’m talking about
In what part of Florida you guys are located?
Clermont
Here’s a shocker for you!….moving a 3 bedroom house from the Portland Oregon area to Ocala area, was quoted at $31000…. And this is NOT full service,this is YOU pack,they load and unload…$31,000…
Please stop the bell when giving prices. Was listening and couldn’t hear the dollar amounts because the bell is too loud. Thank you so much!
Otherwise thanks for the info!
Did you say you moved back to Wisconsin from Florida and then back to Florida again?
Yea that is correct!
Any company please
Definitely considering moving there from Hampton Roads areas of Virginia I’m so sick of Virginia.
Did I hear correctly that a 3 bedroom house can be rented in clermont for $2k per month? Thanks for the great video. You are a tremendous help!!
Yes but they go quick!
You’re welcome!
I’d be renting with one car! Yikes I need about $1200
Wow so expensive. Is it really worth living there? Seems you have to be rich
I’m single bachelor not a whole family…
We flu to Florida
@Kailey Anderson. I hope you feel better 🙂
I like how they make 2000 for a 3 bed house seem like robbery when I'm paying 2000 for a 1 bed apartment and that's robbing the landlord hahaha
I’m A family of 7 😭 lol
Why did you guys move back to Wisconsin? Didn't like Florida
No rental info, buying info much better. Why waste money on rentals? Rembrr there are eight people, 2Adts and 6 children. 150 p/n for a hotel is too high. Reduce cost by a minimum of 30% for a family of 3-4. 16K is absurd.
