The advice to rent is the best advice you are getting in this thread.
Take your time.
Do not get caught up in the sense of urgency that often is an immediate motivator when it comes to sales -- sales of any kind. But with buying a house, it is especially and obviously of top importance to think things through. Look before you leap. Visit. Rent. Try to experience all the things you think you would want to do if you owned in TV.
In addition to the price, the location, the model and all that other surface stuff, I strongly advise you to get the feel of the place. "Feel" is an intangible. When it comes to choosing where you want to live, getting the feel first is something that can get skipped. How does TV 2021 feel to you? Do you think you would like the fit?
I can tell you that since we bought, as snowbirds, in 2013, after visiting and renting since 2007, the feel has changed. Some of that is due to the enormous growth of TV and what that is doing to the ratios of people to things they want to do. And there are other things that contribute to the feel of the place, too.
Bottom line: Get the feel.
