I love this. I will say commute downtown is usually 18-24 minutes not 35 minutes. With bad traffic I would say 25-35. I do live right off of exit 100 so access to expressway is easy. Universal is about 35 minutes Disney is 45-50 minutes.
Yep! Live in Lake Mary and love it! Everything is within and hour from our home! Beaches! Disney and the Sanford Orlando Airport is only 7 miles away! Love it!
@@kenpozek I've been living here my whole life and love it. I always advise my clients who are new to the area and aren't gung ho about the attractions to strongly consider living in the Lake Mary area. Even Longwood and parts of Sanford have strongly improved
Yeah Lake Mary it’s nice. I thought he was going to show colonial plaza in Heathrow which is very nice and convenient too regarding all the basic, like groceries, restaurants, entertainment, banks etc. Nice video though.
Great videos as always. Lake Mary is indeed an awesome town to live in and it's great for families. The retail corridor along Rinehart gives you very easy access to pretty much all the national retail chains without the congestion.
Great job, Ken! I lived in LM for years after being displaced by the tornado 25 years ago today. We lived at the Country Garden apartments in Winter Garden and had only been there less than 2 months. Ours was the decimated building next to the lake. I live in New England now, but miss LM very much and really enjoyed your episode. I get back there every so often as my daughter resides in Altamonte Springs. If I ever decide to move back there, I will most definitely look you up! I love your energy. xo
Great video. Seems kind of like Winter Haven or Lakeland? A self-contained town but drive-able to the parks on weekends? I would love to see a Lakeland video.
Unfortunately, here is nothing to do. The only mall nearby is almost dead. All has been turned into hospitals and doctors offices. No bookstores, no pet shops and no parks. The schools are not as they use to be. There are no pieces of land to build a house.
I love Lake Mary, but we don't have any more space for more people is no space for more construction either. The traffic in W Lake Mary blvd is insane always! Peaceful, but expensive.
Hey Ken I have been trading in the markets for 15 years I work part time retail jobs and my wife works full time retail on and off. my house is paid off( est 600 000) and i have no bills what is a good spot for retail turnover
Wish it wasn't a winn dixie.. they should of put in a trader Joe's.. then Lake Mary would be more of a hit, but traffic around there would become insane.
Why you can’t talk about schools as a real estate agent? If a real state agent supposed to be an expert about an area, people will ask about crime and schools in the area. Real state agents do not want to talk about it. I find it weird that some information should be avoided. I still have not gotten a straight answer from a real state agent about why they can’t talk about it. Can anyone shed some light on this? I know how to get the answers about crime, just look at the crime stats. I know how to look up the school’s academic performances. I just don’t understand why that subject is such a bad thing to ask a realtor? It is like playing stairway to haven in a music store.
Because saying “this area is safe” or “these schools are good” or “this area has a lot of families” is subjective and could be construed as steering, which is illegal. So we can provide data about the general area, but we can’t give an opinion on schools, safety, familial, or racial questions.
Terrible! No representation of Colonial Town Plaza? Where neighbors have gathered for decades at Dexters, The Vineyard, Liam's and Amura, Ruth Chris and the Westin's Don Schula, that is where the Real Residents of Lake Mary have been going for 25 years + The AMC theater and Coldstone and Menchies for ice cream after the movies. You left out Peach Valley and Stonewood. Honestly, there is nothing downtown except 4th Street Grill which is mediocre. I have built 3 homes here and know it very well- I feel you left out the best of everything in Lake Mary- I grew up here so I know most of our neighbors who own these establishments - Corona Cigars have been there at least 20 years, not to mention the great bike trail behind Peach Valley which we all love.....
I still prefer Hallandale Beach Florida more it’s a beautiful city with a growing communities and businesses and a good nightlife.🙌🏻☀️

Exit 100? Don't you mean 98 or 101A B C?
Yep! Live in Lake Mary and love it! Everything is within and hour from our home! Beaches! Disney and the Sanford Orlando Airport is only 7 miles away! Love it!
I’m so glad we ended up in Lake Mary! It has a smaller town feel with everything you need close by. Great video!
So glad to hear you love it!
YES FINALLY A LAKE MARY VIDEO! BEST SUBURB OF ORLANDO!
It’s pretty amazing. Draws me in every time I go

@@noahreyes5241 Everything you need is right along Lake Mary Blvd lol its so convenient

Hi Ken!
Lake Mary does look beautiful and very peaceful.
Excellent video as always 👍🏻
Thanks for giving props to that side of town. you always hear about Lake Nona, Wintergarden and that side of town . really enjoyed the video
Really need to do more on the east side. Lots coming for sure
Why in the world should real estate agents not discuss schools? That’s a main driver for buyers. Ridiculous PC nonsense.

Great video Lake Mary has a lot to offer.
Another banger by the Pozek gang
Wow!!!
Lake Mary is awesome. i had to buy in Sanford; little more affordable yet so close to everything.
Love it! Let's not forget that we also have Sanford Orlando Airport close by....
No flights outta there
Great vids, my wife and I always watch your content when it drops.
Can you do a video on Minneola and Hills of Minneola project?
Thanks, Justin! Definitely on the list. So many people looking in those areas. Thanks for the suggestion!
I love to give your videos a thumbs up as soon as the page loads 👍
Hey! Thanks for the 👍🏼
Stop by Dexter’s Lake Mary! That place is awesome!
I will! Thanks for the tip!
Your videos are really good, I have subscribed to your channel, thank you for your great effort to inform others...
Well hey! Thank you
Great Video Ken! Thanks 👍
Thanks Jack!
I installed the underground electrical lines in Steeple Chase and Griffin Park.
They seem to work well!
Lake Mary is ok but Hallandale Beach Florida just got more to and growing businesses and communities.
Great video. Seems kind of like Winter Haven or Lakeland? A self-contained town but drive-able to the parks on weekends? I would love to see a Lakeland video.
Price for griffin park?? Love your videos. Very helpful. We are trying to find something 200-250😳😳😳
Townhomes $300K and up. Houses are selling for &450K and up
you should try that new Mexican restaurant on daniels rd Aztec, its a good one
Unfortunately, here is nothing to do. The only mall nearby is almost dead. All has been turned into hospitals and doctors offices. No bookstores, no pet shops and no parks. The schools are not as they use to be. There are no pieces of land to build a house.
What do you think of Alaqua or Alaqua Lakes are homes still available
Love it! Lots of rehab needed most times tho
Excellent video. So informative. Are you planning on doing one for Tampa?
One day we’ll expand to Tampa. Not yet :)
Ken, what do you do in Windermere? There's nothing here
I love Lake Mary, but we don't have any more space for more people is no space for more construction either. The traffic in W Lake Mary blvd is insane always! Peaceful, but expensive.
Hey Ken I have been trading in the markets for 15 years I work part time retail jobs and my wife works full time retail on and off. my house is paid off( est 600 000) and i have no bills what is a good spot for retail turnover
people have told me just to live near Disney that the area has high turnover
Couldnt believe this...I live in lake Mary...which winndixie shopping center are you referring to? (Intnl?)
Looks like the one located on International Pkwy
They put in a Winn Dixie on wheelhouse and lake Mary Blvd. Thats where griffin park is located.
Wish it wasn't a winn dixie.. they should of put in a trader Joe's.. then Lake Mary would be more of a hit, but traffic around there would become insane.
It seems like none of these supposed " high end " homes offer privacy. Here in the Northeast, high end homes are often on large wooded lots.

People discovered our town and now it’s not as good.
