Think hard about that before you commit.
In a do-over we would have thought harder over what most important and gotten our priorities straight — stayed and come here winter.

We're dealing with that now. We live in Indiana and just bought a home in TV. Our grandkids are 13, 7 and 5 and we see them often as they live pretty close by. My wife isn't ready to leave them behind. We'll be retired by next November and plan on snowbirding until they get a little older, then we'll sell our house here.
We just don't think having 2 houses is sustainable for us longterm.
I don't want 2 homes to take care of and financially for us it doesn't make sense. We do have family and lots of longtime of friends here. So we're thinking after we sell our house here we can come back for a few months and just rent a place.
