We have found ourselves in a situation that has not been resolved (and could be resolved without any cost to TV) because we did not read the fine print and weren't properly advised of the financial implications and certain restrictions in the documents.
Read and understand ANYTHING you sign and you won't find yourself in the stressful situation that we now find ourselves in. What should have been a joyful experience has turned out otherwise.
Once again there are insinuations that the developer or their agents have acted unethically. The agent is not responsible for verbally reading the entire contract to buyers. There is no "fine print" it is all there. If you are not experienced in buying real estate-Read.
I never knew until beginning to follow TOTV that so many 55+ people were so naive. The OPs advice to read a contract is good. the inuendo is not good
