This girls knows nothing! GDC development has been there over 40 years. I have been going there to shoot, ride dirt bikes, jeeping and drone flying for 30yrs Without a problem. Newbies are out of control and got it shut down because of drunk deaths, weekly emergency rescues, brush fires etc. Was a true redneck country club.
I've noticed over the course of the last fifteen years or so that there seems to have more houses crop up on the edge of the compound that it seems that it'll eventually become just memory for us and that it'll just be enjoyed through RU-vid videos.
I live on NW Palm Bay for more that 30 years, all around have city waters until went you cross Jupiter and get to S W, then you are not getting city water.
Some investors in sw Florida are already underwater and fragile homeowners with big debt are on the edge. Employment is rising and wages here are not ratio’d to the house prices. Even in new homes, they are still too expensive, except for northerners who want to buy which had dwindled tremendously. We are also in recession if not officially.
Right behind 14th street in cocoa beach on the A1A there’s a little body of water behind the houses that are across the houses on the Indian river there’s manatee every morning relaxing
@@glennthomason141 We haven't! I have food allergies, so I can't eat out. I have to live vicariously through Josh. I don't believe he's eaten there. Is it good?
Me and my wife visited Palm Bay a month ago. Was our first Florida trip. We did not want to return home to PA. So after our trip we made the decision to move there! Right now we’re selling off anything we don’t need and throwing out junk we’ve collected over the years to make the move easier. We plan to let our 3 kids finish out the school year then try to sell our house and and buy there starting June. My wife has a friend in Palm Bay and we loved it there so I’ll keep you in mind to use as our Realitor. Thank you for the video. Biggest concern for use is to move to an area not as prone to get smacked so hard by hurricanes, and make sure we’re in an area not known for flooding.
Palm Bay is beautiful! You will love living here, especially when your old neighbors are complaining about shoveling snow come winter time! Anywhere in Florida is prone to hurricanes, but historically speaking, Brevard County gets hit far less than other areas. Storms are usually tropical storms and not hurricanes by the time they get here. NASA decided to set up shop here for a reason! Palm Bay also tends to have less damage, due to it being inland. This also means your homeowners insurance rates won't be as high as they would be closer to the beach! I would be happy to guide you through your move when the time comes. Feel free to reach out any time if you have questions about the area! 321-345-1540 is my direct line. Thanks for watching!
We live about 5 miles just north of "the compound" here in Palm Bay. Daily everything from guys racing motorcycles and cars out there, gun shooting , camping, drifting in cars, guys flying and running r'c (remote controlled toys to drones flying around. Always a group of "dope heads" out there and some setting things on fire. Dead bodies dumped out there and the ocassional cops driving thru. Fun for me to go out there when I'm having a boring Sunday and see what antics are going on there. !
It is definitely an interesting place! It is beautiful and peaceful out there if you happen by during a time where no one is riding dirt bikes or ATVs. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
@@TheShupeRealtors I was an active real estate agent in Orlando for 31 years. 25 years of that I brokered my own office. Been living in Palm Bay for 9 years now. Born in Tampa in 1959. Florida remains a great place to smartly invest in real estate.
Hello! We live here, too. It is the unfortunate truth. With its rapid growth, the City of Palm Bay is struggling to keep up with its infrastructure and overall appearance. Hopefully, they are able to catch up with the growth! Thank you for watching!
Only idiots would live in Florida. Can't get insurance, can't get a mortgage, crime through the roof, schools suck, hurricanes, sink holes, toxic waste ponds, and a governor who's a lunatic.
@ThePolarbear1956 We have a great (I guess it's not so great) microphone that malfunctioned and recorded 15 minutes of silence. Gotta' love technology! I, unfortunately, had to use the audio straight from the camera. It's better than nothing! 🤷♀️ Thanks for watching!
NOT in a HOA community with inflated housing prices with a nothing shopping center. Lousy diner, rude race trigger workers at Publix, an abortion clinic rents an office, board of health violations at Beef O Brady's have flying insects in the kitchen, raw food stored improperly, food in contact with slime, mold like substances Aug 16, 2024, and a gas station that gets held up a lot, it's putting lipstick on a pig. It's still Palm Bay no matter what, drugs, murder, sex offenders, and over inflated prices for what it is. Avoid ALL of Palm Bay is the answer. Pick a better town to sell real estate in and Melbourne isn't it. Now you have corruption, especially West Melbourne redeck zone. There is no "best" area. Roads are still in disrepair, repaired roads are already showing cracks and crushed shoulders. In 2016 you could get a house in Palm Bay for $35k, what makes people pay $250,000 for it today? There is no merit for Palm Bay to cost that much, it's like a flat West Virginia with much higher taxes and crime. Put up ADT signs and cameras, or expect to get broken into repeatedly. I've been here since 1984, have been robbed 3 times, once by James Phillip Barnes, look up that guy. Plaza massacre by William Bryan Cruse, dead bodies dismembered and scattered in the Palm Bay Compound, two "Christian" boys dealing in drugs executed one Christmas night doing things not so Christian. Schools that are woke, suspend kids for saying "him" and "her." When they/them becomes a school policy to brainwash kids that twisted perversion is OK, it's time to go.
@deborahstraight8466 I really enjoyed diving into this matter. We continue to meet with the city for updates and I'll always post when there are new developments to share! Thank you for watching!
My aunt lives in Palm Bay; buckskin street, and I went there for the first time. I wish I could afford to leave south Florida and move there right now! White picket fence on every yard and huge yard space! The houses are not close to each other, and when I tell u it feels like paradise 🫠
@NastassiaJuanita You're not alone in feeling like that. There are so many folks moving from south Florida to Palm Bay for affordability and more quiet. Thank you for watching! 😊
We have to look at the root of the problem intead of trimming the bush. Political corruption has ruined Miami. Every opportunist, with a briefcase full of cash, is cherished and allowed to do whatever he or she wants: from grotesque annual festivities, to full scale developments only multi millionaires can afford. The average 9 to 5 person has been ignored and pushed aside, so the middle class is disappearing, either you are filthy rich or miserably poor. I have never witnessed so much dirty money flowing rampant around one city before. So obvious it is pathetic. Let me repeat this: Local politicians serving the interest of those who bring them money, And they couldn't care less about those who voted for them. I left Miami a while back never to look back again. North of West Palm Beach you can still breathe some clean air.
HOA dues in Heron Bay cover maintenance to the heated pool, tennis and basketball courts, playground, gym, and common area maintenance. Let us know if you have any other questions!
Why would you want to get rid of the compound! It’s a place for us locals to get away from all the new people coming in! The people that you and others like you keep bringing people to Brevard!
We are already seeing this happen. There is a neighborhood where homes were around $180,000 before the pandemic created real estate insanity. Homes of the same exact floor plan shot up to $315,000 and even $360,000! These same homes are selling for around $280,000 now. Some of these homeowners will never recoup those costs unless something crazy happens again. It's really a tough transition for home sellers who are realizing they overspent a few years ago. Thank you for watching!
As long as NY money keeps pouring into the region, no one’s equity is going anywhere. The market has corrected back to sanity from where it was, that’s all.
Where do you think the market is headed as we enter the second half of the year? Do you think prices will continue to ease or do you think they'll go up again?
