Thank-you for the great advice! My best friend is actually 74 years old. She looks and acts much younger. I've always enjoyed older people's company. It would be nice to live around people my age. We could all grow older together and make awesome memories. I bet some of the older neighborhoods are really close for that reason. My concern with purchasing new is that I can't have a buyer's agent to protect my interests. And, the whole bond issue scares me, because it adds so much money to the purchase and I wonder if I'll ever get that back if I decide to sell. And, not getting granite counters, color choices in inside paint and floor options forces me to pay even more money. Plus, I would like to make the Lanai into a Florida Room so the dogs can have a doggy door. I really like the idea of having a fence, as most of the places I have lived everyone had a fence. It gives privacy, keeps my dogs out of other's yards and makes me feel more secure.
