A big measuring stick is the time you've spent in TV. If it's only that day trip, I'll bet my socks that within a week of buying that beautiful Bonita you'll find a better home or deal right in your own neighborhood. The advice to "take your time" is huge. Things are not going to change that dramatically in the short term. TV is such a beautiful, exciting place that your vision doesn't really clear until you've spent weeks here.
It's not that you're going to be unhappy with the Bonita, or that you might have saved a little money by catching just the right place at the right moment. There are thousands here who bought after a very short visit and are happy as clams. But by asking if this is the Right Time, you seem like the more deliberate type who needs to look at all sides of the decision very carefully.
So come on back, immerse yourself and talk to lots of folks about where they live and why they like it. I live in a courtyard villa on Nancy Lopez that is miles from where you are looking. It is the most fabulous mid-priced home in all of TV! It's my paradise on earth.
