Hi all! We currently live in the four corners area, and when our lease is up are hoping to rent a house. Ideally staying within a 30-minute drive of the Disney parks (i.e. avoiding the Davenport area at all costs). Any recommendations for realtors that can help with this, or should we stick with house-finding sites like Zillow, etc.?

Living in Baldwin Park (32814/32825) vs Downtown (32801)?
Moving from Tallahassee to Orlando, the main reason is to be in a big city with a lot of people and events. I’m late 20s and I want to be in a walkable, safe, neighborhood (trails, groceries stores, restaurants, etc). I also want to be near a good night scene but I don’t want to be kept awake every night by loud noises, which is my hesitation with downtown based on Reddit comments. Cost isn’t an issue for these two locations and my job will be downtown.
Which area would be best?

Does anyone have any thoughts and/or experience living in the following apartment complexes within the Maitland area? Trying to narrow down our choices but having a hard time:
1. Maitland Pointe Apartments
2. The Adeline
3. Nine 12 Gateway Apartments
Thanks!

Hey there - I’m currently living at Solaya in the SeaWorld/Williamsburg area and I’ve had honestly one of the worst experiences of my life here dealing with management this past year.
I’ll be moving in April and was wondering if anyone has apartment recommendations in the Disney/SeaWorld/Williamsburg/I-Drive/Universal area that they’ve actually had a good experience at?

Hell! Are there any communities between orlando and Champions Gate that offer individual units(No one above or underneath with private backyard? I had heard of one recently but can't for the life of me find it. As far as i know, it also offered amenities(coffee bar/fitness center/ arcade games) and a club house, but you got a little more privacy. Anything similar would also be appreciated!

Relocating to Orlando for a new job that is HQ in Orlando but will require daily local travel so living IN Orlando isn’t a requirement. I’m a bigger fan of Tampa and the beaches near Tampa. Is there anywhere between Tampa and Orlando that is a good place to live with a small city vibe?

Hi everyone!
My boyfriend and I are looking for a place to rent in Christmas, Bithlo, Wedgefield, Chuluota, Geneva, or the eastern side of Avalon Park; Ideally somewhere that allows for a good commute between his job and my university. I'm a biomedical sciences student, and he is an engineer. We've been together for over three years and are looking for a stable, private rental. We're responsible, clean, and respectful tenants, and we'd love a 1-bedroom, 1-bath but are also open to a spacious studio if it's a good fit. If you have a place available or know of anything that might work us, please feel free to comment or DM me. We'd be happy to answer any questions. Thanks in advance! =]

Hi! What can anyone tell me about the 32819 or 32836 zip codes? Specifically, what are the schools like?
Edit: also what’s up with Davenport? Massive houses, great prices, but it seems the whole neighborhood is for sale.

I have the opportunity to move to the Orlando area for a job. Workplace is on the SW side of 32714 zip code. Looking for housing area recommendations.
We're a DINK(WAD) couple in our mid 30's. We're both high earners (household income over $400k) but low spenders, as we enjoy a simple, quiet life. Desire for a short commute, walkable community or nature access for the dog, and ideally some local restaurants/shops/bars to support nearby. May or may not have kids, so schools would be lower on the priority list, though something to consider. We are also Disney fans, though I know Disney will be ~1 hr drive from workplace. We would likely rent at first and then decide whether to buy or not.

Hey everyone,
My partner and I are considering moving to downtown Orlando from Brickell, Miami. We looked at the Robinson and found it to be OK, but was wondering if people who currently live there have any opinions. We're looking for a 2/2. We mostly value having a place that is quiet. We're open to renting a condo as well, not just from apartment companies. Our budget is from 2000-3000. I know this gets posted every once in a while, but I haven't seen a similar post recently. We appreciate any and all help. Also, we have a very chill standard poodle good girl (60 lbs). Dog tax paid with included pic!

Looking to move east of I-4, south of 408 around SoDo, Delaney Park, etc. What neighborhoods are recommended or not recommended? We're looking for good schools, walking distance to trails/lakes and/or restaurants, and young family neighborhoods. How far south can we go before the bad parts?

Thoughts on Concord rents on Amelia? Is the lower rent price worth it over downtown proper?
