We came that year, a patio villa started at $180,000. I still have the original paperwork from the homes for sale then somewhere in a file.

We chose to wait, plus couldn’t get a new home anyway. Our friend bought in 07, sold in 2008 for loss, after upgrading the kitchen, baths, and lanai.

We came back in 2010 bought exact home different village for $118,000.
