I think the best thing potential buyers can do is rent for several months. Except for the high season (Jan - March) there should be plenty of places available for a reasonable rent. That gives you plenty of time to look, meet people, and to really experience TV.

Our experience was that the things I was sure I wanted when we started looking became not so important. For me, I was absolutely positive I wanted volume ceilings, had to have them. But then I would find that I would look at a place, leave, and not have noticed whether or not it had volume ceilings. (Duh!) In the end, the things that mattered to us (everyone is different) were location and privacy. Our hot tub under the stars, priceless!
