We did 2 Lifestyle previews and looked at lots of homes. We looked at new and resale and FSBO's with both VLS and MLS. We decided on the model we wanted and the village we wanted. But did not buy on either preview. When back home we saw a listing we really liked and made an offer that did not come together. After doing lots and lots of research, building spread sheets, developing a way to determine best value, we picked about 15 homes and flew back down. We bought a home In Poinciana and got it set up just the way we wanted. Well wouldn't you know, once we had that, the exact home we originally wanted in the village we wanted came on the market. So we are now selling the first home in Poinciana, a beautiful designer with a great lot, perfect layout and lots of upgrades. And currently the best value in the Villages, at least using my apples to apples way of comparison. And in September we are closing on the new home in Sunset Pointe, on a golf course, with a pool and is the one we really wanted in the first place. So looks like we may own 3 homes for a while. Will see. If we do than will probably just rent one for the winter and back on the market in the spring. But as my investment lessons have always taught me, buy when everyone else wants to sell and sell when everyone else is buying. So for my thinking right now is the best time possible to be buying. So if I end up with 3 homes, still the best place to currently invest. Plenty of time to sell later. The market will become hot again. Just a matter of time.
