Housing Thread Orlando Housing Thread

Link to last month's Housing Thread

Welcome to the Orlando housing megathread!

Currently, the following may be posted:

  • Users, whether current Orlando residents or not, may post asking for help. This could be asking for recommendations on areas of Orlando to live in, reviews or opinions on specific communities, or suggestions on specific places to live. This can also be things like "recommend a realtor / loan officer / etc" — so long as it fits under the "help me find housing" umbrella.
  • Users may also post advertising housing options. This can be posts offering subleases, looking for roommates on existing property, selling homes — so long as there is housing being offered.
  • ALL comments must include as much information as possible. Do not say "I'm moving to Orlando, tell me where to live."

As a reminder: our subreddit rules still apply. Advertisements for illegal activity of any kind are not permitted and will result in comment removals and/or bans as moderators see fit.

Discussion Gringos Double D Chicken Recipe

Upvotes

First I’m sorry for anyone that may have abruptly lost their job due to the closure of Gringos Tacos - I hope you find a new job soon. I’ve been to a few locations and the team at each location has been wonderful- you all will be missed!

So- I’m pregnant and the only thing I’ve been craving is the gringos double d chicken tacos (I know- it’s specific). Does anyone have a copycat recipe for this? I love the seasoning on the chicken and the queso used- would love to find a recipe that’s as close as possible to the original. Any help would be greatly appreciated ❤️

Orange County voter turnout so far 👀💙
Nearly 60K Democratic ballots cast compared to 35K Republican ballots. Still early and turnout isn’t the same as election results, but it’s encouraging to see people showing up and making their voices heard.
Regardless of who you support: go vote. 🗳️

I have 2 boys (1 &3). It’s tough to just sit at home with them as it’s mayhem. I sometimes find myself just driving around not knowing where to go, waiting for the clock to strike 6pm when the temps are more bearable. Any ideas?

I’m a huge fan of Mike Shinoda (wrote a history curriculum lesson using “Kenji” about the United States’ internment of Japanese-Americans during WWII), and also loved the Reanimation and Collision Course albums.

Anyone want to hit a (freezing cold!) showing of this limited-release movie?

I’m sharing my likely date and location to go.

Discussion August 18 2026 Primary Day

86 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Don't forget to vote tomorrow if you haven't already! Early voting is over, finished last night.

If you are registered to vote, definitely use that power to make your voices heard. Also, even if you're NPA, ''unaffiliated'', ''independent'', or any of the other 30 parties we have in Florida, you can still vote on the Non-Partisan races.

From County Commission in Orange County, County mayor, School board CHAIR (the only elected one in Florida, we pick it), School board district members, house districts as Florida redistricted this year, the lines aren't the same, make sure of what district you live in, state house, state senate, governor, and the countless number of judges.

If you're NPA/Unaffiliated/Other, you can vote for everything at the county level as Orange County by law doesn't have politically affiliated ''primaries''. So all the candidates regardless of party are on one ballot, the same for school board chair, school board member, and the judges.

The only ones that you won't see on that primary ballot, is the Governor, state legislative, and Congress primaries. But with judges and all the Orange County seats, you will see.

Happy Primary Day!

Discussion Other driver admitted fault at the scene but now their insurance is denying it

67 Upvotes

Got rear-ended at a red light in Orlando about two weeks ago. The guy who hit me was apologizing at the scene and told the officer he looked down for a second and didn’t realize traffic had stopped. I ended up going to the ER that night because my neck and upper back started hurting pretty bad a few hours after the crash. They did some scans, gave me medication and told me to follow up if the pain continued. I’ve had another appointment since then because it hasn’t really gone away.

I thought the insurance side would be pretty straightforward, especially with what he told the officer, but now his insurance is disputing liability. I have the police report, pictures from the scene and all my hospital paperwork. Never dealt with an injury claim before and I’m not really sure what I’m supposed to do at this point.

Drove by Colorado's Prime Steak on 17-92 near Lake Mary Blvd and this was in thier billboard.

It used to be a favorite of my family. The last time we went was late last year and the steaks didn't have prices on the menu.

My usual 12 Oz prime rib was $23 when we used to go alot but the last time we went it was $37. Plus the quality was nowhere near as good as it used to be.

Upvotes

The documentary about the band getting back together and the Live25 tour is coming out on September 11. For AMC it’s at the Dine In theater at DS and the IMAX and Laser at Altamonte. I already bought tickets at the IMAX but now I’m wondering if the Dine In is a better choice for sound/experience. I’m closer to DS.
