He highlights the hidden costs of moving, including high homeowners insurance and community-specific risks. The video also compares cities like Naples, Fort Myers, and Cape Coral, helping viewers match their priorities with the right location. It ends with advice for potential movers and a teaser for a follow-up video on costly mistakes buyers make in Babcock Ranch.
