What questions do you have? Post them below!
whats gas / rent and land look like
My family wants you to live with us in hawaii alaska realtor
We think we are moving up this spring! Cant wait!
That's exciting! What's bringing you all up here?
Alaska sounds like a lot of fun for a nature lover like me! Would love to visit one day!
Great description on Anchorage. Thanks for sharing.
Can you talk about land around Anchorage? Planning to get a few hundred acres within the next 2 years and would love something not terribly far from Anchorage so I can keep goin back and forth from LA easily.
Realtors in Anchorage are sketchy. Not all of them, but a significant portion of them. Like, half of them. Anchorage is a small town with a realty community to match. This is something that needs addressing in a video (I dare you). We lived in Bear Valley and loved it, but a big reason why we loved it is because we had the means to circumnavigate the Anchorage realtor system.
It sounds like there's a story here. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. What happened?
can you do a video on rural Alaskan communities?
Wasilla next please
An ugly reality. Mostly one big strip mall full of folks on the edge of society and middle-class blue and white-collar people looking to save a dime to support a lifestyle of a nice large home in a crappy area.
Hi Jamin, speaking of earthquakes, did you feel the one shortly before 3:30 am this morning? I was wide awake when it happened too! I live in Eagle River and it shook pretty good here - enough to open the top drawer of my nightstand. My son told me it shook his tv so loud that it woke him up....lol.
Where can I go for berry picking and when? I definitely would love to do that! I just moved here in August this year and jumped right into work at my new job so I am still trying to find out all there is to do in Alaska when I have time.
Good to hear from you, Shannon. Indeed I did feel it! I believe there were 3 big shakes but I only woke up for two. The best place for berry picking is south fork. You have to hike a few miles, but the payoff is worth it.
@@alaska_realtor awesome, noted ✅ 👌 Thank you!
So, my questions is how much does it actually cost to move up there? Like moving your stuff, animals, and what is the best way to move up there?
How much stuff do you have and what method of transporting your stuff up here do you have?
A one bedroom apartment full, a dog, a cat. We have two cars and have done research in the travel options and think that driving would be best because of our cat. So we were thinking of driving up and shipping on car and a container of our apartment
@@michaelacox7009 that may very well be your best option. The last folks I just had drive through Canada said that they waited at the border for 4 hours but it was fairly easy as long as you follow all of their directions.
How about covering some of the Basher neighborhood area?
Not a bad idea. Are you thinking of a market update or just talking about it in general?
@@alaska_realtor Area in general. Internet options, trash service, does the city plow, reasons why it is a good/bad option for someone to purchase there, etc.
Is that Mountain Photoshoped or that is the Mtn above the city
Nope, no photoshop just another day in Anchorage :)
You previously mentioned living in TX for a few years, where the cloudy days are all day with no sun light coming through. Is this the case in anchorage also on cloudy days? Thank you for your feedback
We get a few cloudy days here and there, but no more as regular as, say, Seattle. Does that help?
@@alaska_realtor Thanks, I mostly just wondered if the sun generally peeks through on cloudy days (like it does in CO) or if it is more like TX and the Midwest where it is cloudy with lots of thick layers of clouds and the sun never cuts through them.
I have looked at a few general to Alaska charts on this but I’m not seeing anything specific to Anchorage. Maybe your local weather man can give some fun statistical charts on the topic.
It’s up to you and I mean no disrespect I just like to brain storm and learn everything.
I live in hawaii come live with me dude I got good friends and a lot of family in hawaii
I found Hawaii is no better, at least on Oahu. The west half of the island between the tourist resorts and North Shore is mostly Polynesian and Portuguese natives that hate everything and everybody that’s not one of them.
@@jondstewart not entirely true dude I'm from hawaii and I'm german decent nobody gives me problems or is hatefull the people are very peaceful and happy and nice. Any wy happy holidays and merry Christmas from hawaii
U need to learn to talk faster sir . It’s very boring listening to you .
