Re: Ranch? Villa?
Hi Boomer, you likely know this as well as I do from research.
The smallest ranches seem to run about $25K more than the smallest patio villas, though both about the same square footage. So utilities should be about the same but insurance proportionally higher.
Ranch homes have grass which is why I'm inclined to the villas, also I've always had big yards and dogs and the fence privacy is appealing on the small Florida lots. Though I'd sure like a 2 car garage I think I'll forego it and downsize a bit.
To me , I'll visit both when making a final call but it will be more emotional than financial.
