Does AirBNB actually work in FORT WAYNE?
Hi sir how can I contact you do you have Instagram
My wife (who used to live in Fort Wayne) and I are considering moving to the city in a few years. This ballpark is a big reason why!
@@virginiavet68 I love it! I’m actually an agent and would love to help you guys or at least answer any questions you may have. I’ve helped many folks move here and left and relocated back myself. 260.267.8559, jacob@mcafeehomegroup.com.
This video is the perfect blend of entertainment and education.
That’s the goal!
Margaritas look super fire 🔥 the video to 💯
Appreciate you checking out the video! And yea all the margs were 👌
LaMargarita on Calhoun has fantastic Margaritas and the food is great too.
We had the Cadillac marg in our first margarita video a few years ago. Great spot!
I loved this fun video! We loved house 3. I agree with the wood being nice to see come back. Always enjoy your videos
Wow thank you! Really appreciate you taking the time to watch and share that. I’m hoping to work in more real estate than I have in the past
🤮 Over $1m in fort wayne Indiana? That's absurd.
The times they are a-changin
New houses look nice, but I’ve always loved the charm of Fort Wayne’s historic homes!
They don’t build them like they used to that’s for sure
I wish someone would incorporate The Old Fort and build off that. I thought they were going to incorporate the railroad into the plan? But i guess they want they same brown and beige buildings any the other city has.
That I cannot speak to. The plans have been very fluid. I still think the city’s best days are to come!
The original SweetWater location on Bass Rd was just a warehouse an we had to make boxes out of boxes to ship things, and always a bag of candy an a card in the boxes!~ Worked there for a week for a temp job place. Back when I worked for FedEx Ground, I asked the driver who used a box truck to take the stuff back an come back again for a 2nd load for SweetWater, why not use a Semi trailer instead so less trips, 2 weeks later they started using a semi trailer!~
Oh nice! They’ve come a long way for sure. Thanks for checking out the video
This is our absolute favorite ball park!
Such a fun and friendly place for all ages!
Dickys 21 tap my favorite wings. Big and hearty wings. Great flavors. Whiskey River and Carolina gold the best ever.
I will add it to the list! Appreciate you checking out the video
rise n roll #1
They’re hard to beat!
@jakeinfortwayne btw jake was just wondering what areas to avoid, for real estate in fort wayne? like the bad areas.
@@Topdisbong let’s chat when you’re free 260.267.8559
@jakeinfortwayne yup called ans left a message
Now u do have the Buffalo Wings & Ribs card right, thats for getting points well sorta.
What I am still confused about as all hell, why not used the old Omni-Source land offa Clinton for the new jail, so they will not need to transport far an it stays inside FT Wayne vs where they want to put it!~
That’s above my pay grade. But thanks for checking out the video!
The stoplight on Stellhorn should be removed, it is UNFAIR to anyone driving to need to stop for ppl wanting out of that addition, Goeglein road deals with the traffic, so should this addition!~ The worse one is the 3 way stop on old Maysville rd, all because some dumbass kid didn't pay attention to traffic an was killed those were put up, an it was the kids fault!~
I have had Peanuts wings and I will say that Buffalo Wings & Ribs beats them!~
Wings and ribs was in part 1. So good!
Hibachi Express by Kroger's is damn good, it beats Hopsings by leaps n bounds and I am nit picky when it comes to my food, Won the owner is a nice guy behind the counter!~ If you DO NOT mind the countless TRAIN horns all night long!~ Sadly New Haven is also stuck giving tax $$ to Fort Wayne and we do not get anything for it unless it is needed!~ I grew up close to New Haven in the 80's an live in it currently, and I miss the Barbershop that was right by the Post Office, he retired a few yrs ago because of great clips!~ I Absofreakingly HATE the new look of the way out of New Haven, those morons took a once great roadway and made it look horrible by the river an it was WAY WAY WAY overdue like 10+ yrs overdue!~
I need to check out Hibachi Express it sounds like!
@@jakeinfortwayne It is closed on Mondays an opens at 11am.
My only Hole in One was at Cherry Hill on 15
Nice! I’m still seeking my first 😩
how much does it cost approximately
$950k was list price. Sellers ended up staying. It’s likely worth more now
The city that has no bike lanes anywhere. Shared use paths are glorified sidewalks which are terrible for serious cyclists.
Yea they’ve got some work to do. But course of action would be make your concerns heard by your local representative and city council!
Go to St Vincent de Paul and St. Patrick in fort wayne
Thanks for watching! I was a St Vincent parishioner many moons ago. I haven’t done a St Patrick but I’ll keep it in mind for a part 2
Yea st Patrick’s is located on S. Harrison St.
Another great one! I should be out there making videos. always jealous of how smooth these look.
Wow thanks man! We put a lot of effort to them
I think They're called Flats lmao
Yea I blanked! Haha. I never claimed to be the brightest. I messed that part up in the first wing video too.
I haven't been to any of those. They have all been recommended many times. There is just so much competition in this space in fort wayne.
There really is and all 3 are good. Pikes Pub is def a hole in the wall and everyone was smoking inside, but the smoked wings had a distinct flavor I love. Peanuts was the most recommended in the comments though.
@@jakeinfortwayne it's funny that we're on a taco video and you responded with a wing answer. 🤣
@@JCrozier1 welp… all 3 of these are excellent too! Haha
@@jakeinfortwayne no worries. I totally figured it out.
Do you still believe that airbnb is a good investment in 2024?
I think it can be if done properly. The competition is much stronger and the 1-2 bedroom options are way over saturated. Just go in knowing it’s very hands on and challenging at times. When I started I was literally the only one with professional photos and all new furniture, now there’s dozens. I would make sure you have a plan B in case it doesn’t go how you want (run numbers for long term rentals, or buy at a discount so you can sell without a loss). The best bet is to buy a big house (5+ bedrooms) that can sleep large groups (weddings, funerals, etc). They save on hotels and there’s very few options for them. The returns are better. 260.267.8559 if you ever want to chat!
The video starts perfectly… peanuts the best!
Erica is way more fun than me 😂
I did not like the Summit grill...the pork had a funny taste. Try the Clyde Club Room. Delicious
I liked Summit but it did have a distinct flavor. I’ll check out Clyde!
Aslan Passage has some really cool custom homes worth making a video on. Rock Dove out SW off Illinois is really cool too with more front porch style custom homes.
I did a Whisper Rock video last year (connected to Aslan). But you’re right, great hood
Seems like a nice place to live ! Is it walkable at all or pretty car dependent ?
Fort Wayne in general is car dependent. Downtown is starting to develop to a point where that will change. But for now a car is almost a must.
@@jakeinfortwayne Too bad, I hope one day it'll be more walkable!
@@Obeu it’s trending that way. Just going to take time.
Mo's on Goshen are the best!
I was sleeping on em… but not anymore!
Tacos look platinum as well
All 3 spots were 🔥
Yeah hell yeah lets go. I miss fw so much pops its ridiculous
Some say it’s the pinnacle of modern civilization
Idk what's more fort wayne, the gas station tacos (which are amazing 10/10) or coaching a basketball game after 🤣
Ha! Ngl it was rough coaching 5th grade girls bball after all that
Fort Wayne has changed so much. I used to come by the river fishing.
It’s totally different, but the best is yet to come!
Let me guess the one offa Coliseum before they shut the way there off when they built the hotel across from the Memorial Coliseum? That is where alot of ppl used to fish.
My dream house❤
It’s a beaut!
You need to try el Paraiso on Hessen Cassel!
I’ll check it out! I do have a taco part 2 video coming next week
One of Ours downtown has been promenade park for decades 🤔
Thanks for watching
Exciting for sure
Agreed! Thanks for checking out the video
Pretty nice video clip of reuse of an old school apartment building in the Fort..🙌🏼👍👏🏼🏢📸
Thanks sir! 💪
Hopefully the down town keeps thriving to attract younger people to fill these buildings.
Agreed, although downsizers/retirees are moving dt too! One of my clients who’s a widow just sold her home of 30 years and moved downtown. Lots of cool things happening!
They need to revitalize the other sections as well.
@@CenterPorchNP meaning other parts of town? That is happening as well. But all good things take time!
Why does the graffiti look Russian?
@@TrueStory1827 I barely read English so that’s above my pay grade
Hi
👋
Bueno. Practicar, pollo em pa nada
😂 gracias!
Thanks for the videos I really appreciate can you write prices
Thanks for watching! I’m hesitant on the prices bc they may change and set false expectations for the customers. It also dates the video. I do appreciate you sharing the suggestion though.
Thanks for your time to answer my question I look forward to watch your next video
Nice shit pops you gotta hit more 🔥 food spots big W
Thanks man! Appreciate the kind words and you checking out the video. Got a taco part 2 in the works currently. I’ll keep going
They all looked delicious! Being new to Fort Wayne would you consider doing a video on eat in Chinese food?
Hey Leslie! Yes I definitely have considered it. I will add it to the list I promise. Will just need a little time. Hope you’re loving our great city!
@@jakeinfortwayne love it and attending weathering the Fort tomorrow. Great city!
@@leslieMClass80 love it! Lots more fun on the way when it warms up a bit too
Trion in New Haven....amazing Cuban! Great review and look forward to some golfing videos this spring/summer.
Never been there but I’ll check it out! I’ve been battling serious back issues and haven’t golfed since first week of July 😩. Hoping to get healthy soon so I can get back out there!
OKAY SO WE HAVE ONE YEAR THAT WE CAME TO LIVE TO FORTWAYNE FROM CALIFORNIA AND WE NEED GOOD MEXICAN AND BBQ PLACES PLEASE
Well you came to the right page! For tacos I like Tequila best, but it’s higher end. For authentic check out Los Pacos Tacos on Pontiac St. BBQ I like Lucille’s and Ziffles. I have a taco part 2 video coming soon. Would love to have you as a subscriber because we have more Fort Wayne local content coming!
Maaaaan I miss caliente. They had the best cuban ever.
Caliente was indeed 🔥. Have you been to Laz’s though?
Had it once or twice when they were on State Street. Damn shame. Really hope they bring it back!
@@jdl8780 check out Laz’s! I think you’ll be impressed
Excellent. Glad to help inspire this one. They all 3 looked great!
Right on man you definitely did!
