Yes, the Bonita was a new home, on Juneberry Ave in (I think) Poinciana Village. The price at under $170K seemed good, and the cheapest used Bonita was $187.5K (not furnished, bond not paid), located in Liberty Park.
It may be that owners are not willing to sell their pre-owned homes for a loss, assuming that new home prices have dropped. But that is only my humble opinion.
I agree with Boomer's sleep factor, it something is going to disrupt my sleep, it is probably not worth doing.
The salesman also noted that renting a home would bring in something between $7K to $10K in net yearly income.
Lots to think about.
