Default Re: Home Hunting Advice Needed

- where to stay while there?
- cost of housing- going up or coming down like the rest of the country?
- homeowners insurance- has it gone up dramatically like the coastal areas of FL?

A lot of folks like to stay in the life style preview :http://www.thevillages.com/youreinvi...ureinvited.htm

Cost is generally going down - see recent threads on this

Insurance - we pay about $650 for a 1750 SF home with $500K Liab., Hurricane ($500 deductable), Wind and sink hole coverage. It has gone up $100 in the last three years.
