My thoughts are that when the building is done in TV that our home prices will rise considerably. The reason is that I believe most people find TV by way of current residents. Both my parents and my in-laws are moving to TV this month. My brother will not be far behind. When there are no longer any new homes (supply) , the only way to buy in TV will be a preowned. This may be a double edge sword though as our real estate taxes increase as home values do.

There are not many places like TV. I am young at 54. I believe that most of my generation will greatly seek out ACTIVE retirement areas. Who has more activities than TV? It is also a lot cheaper to live here in Florida than in Maryland where I was from. Home prices are MUCH cheaper, no state income tax, and no snow.
