Antlaf, there is nothing wrong with your question. I imagine you are carefully weighing your options and just want some opinions or additional thoughts you have not considered from current residents of TV.
Along with Irma and her wrath....some things to consider:
Will your wife be happy as a "single" in TV; will she be open to joining activities and events "going solo?"
Does absence make the heart grow fonder or more suspicious (what is my spouse doing with all of their alone time?) in your relationship?
Do your plans include your eventual retirement and move to TV in the coming years?
Can your budget easily afford the cost and upkeep of two homes? Interest rates are low...perhaps now is the best time to buy?
How will you handle travel to and from TV? accessible? cost?

I think it is intelligent to gather as many opinions as possible and then make your final decision with your wife. Personally, I own a home in TV and love it.
