This is another good, informative, video of our local region. Your presentation, style is clear and well delivered. Yes, Nanaimo is definitely my choice here. Oh look, here I am again at 2:00...ie: the old geezer out on my daily 12K run along the harbour-front. Keep on making the vids 👍
Great video and so informative as we've been wondering about the Cowichan Valley as our next home. Thank you Scott for the endless valuable information!
@@Nanaimore thank you in advance, I am spoiled to so many super nice cities and towns to buy/live a property on the island soon this year! Such as Nanaimo; Port Alberni; Ladysmith; Duncan; Sannich...but not Victoria which I can't afford...
Soon I'll do a video about a 3-hour loop that takes you from Duncan to Lake Cowichan, Lake Cowichan to Port Renfrew on the west coast, down to Sooke, and back to Duncan. It's a fantastic day trip with SO MANY stops along the way.
I'm considering relocating from Winnipeg to Vancouver Island but in my price range I'm finding lots of "manufactured homes" aka mobile homes. I'm also finding lots of "age restrictions". I'm guessing these are popular with seniors. Is there anything else I should be aware of as someone who's never lived in a mobile home or BC? Do mobile homes have septic tanks etc? And how's the temperature indoors in one of these things? Or would I be better off looking at condos?
Mobile homes are depreciating assets and can be difficult to get insurance on if the unit is over 25 years old. I would highly recommend a condo over a mobile home.
The traffic going through Duncan is what really ruins the City for me. Living near Maple Bay is fantastic. The surrounding rural areas of Duncan are very nice as well.
