My dilemma is if it sells, the buyer wants to take possession of our house before Thanksgiving. That would put us up at the villages in December. I really don't want to pay $2500 or more a month to rent there for 3 - 6 months. I know it gets cheaper in the spring. Joe just wants to buy something right away, but I would like to take my time and not feel any pressure to get it done in a week. I keep saying this is a good problem, this is a good problem. Anyone have any ideas?
Trust me on my own experience... RENT! Take your time. rent a small villa and don't rush it. if you buy a home in a hurry I promise you you'll end up finding a home later you wish you could buy. RENT for 3-6 monts and enjoy finding your dream home.
