Anyone Moved to Florida?
Has anyone moved to Florida from out of state? I am 23 years old, and have been looking to move to South Florida someday. The market seems to be very nice right now if you are looking to buy a home!
My aunt and uncle have a few condos in Naples Florida. I really love the area, pretty quiet not to much to do, yet very nice and pretty beaches. Although prices are pretty high lol. I would love to live in Port Royal though!
So I was looking at Punta Gorda, Cape Coral and such. Pretty much south west Florida. I can't afford to be right on the water, yet I do not want to be far far away.
So those of you that have moved to Florida, how was it? How was finding a job, and the whole relocation process?
It seems like right now you can not pass up all these short sales and such. Prices of $350k 2 years ago and now selling for $125 and lower. Crazy 3 car garages and such. Not looking for anything crazy, just a starter home for a 23 year old and girl. Nice area and a home to work with would be great! Yet like I said even for 125k it seems you can get some hella deals.
Not really in a hurry, still need to save some money but these homes are nice for the money!
Thanks in advance!

Ha Yeah one hell of an ice storm. Just got the S out for the first time today. Yeah I make sure I go to FL at least twice a year. I am a banker right now, not sure what I want to do for sure though.
