If you have expensive furniture that you love, really love...consider bring it. We did and are glad we did. Moving would have cost $10,000 from Michigan and no way would we find Navaho furniture in TV for that. We are not into the teal and turquoise stuff either.
We ordered some living room furniture and waited 3-4 months. Patio furniture took longer. We were blessed with the artistic furniture from our tiny home up north and enjoyed waiting for the rest.

The supply chain was broken during the pandemic. Be ready for a long wait unless you shop for things in stock. I would ship a few key items down if they are special or high quality and can work with the coastal feel down here. That way it will feel like home when you get here.. and while you wait for the rest of the furniture.

We were told to sell everything too, and are glad for the 20% we brought down. We regret selling all of the tools.
