I applaud all who have taken the time to really research and get their "real" feelings down before purchasing. I came on a Lifestyle visit in July '08 with another widow and we had a blast. I decided to rent for three months in Jan.'09 to see how it would be to live there alone. I purchased a house in three weeks without selling my home in NY (although I had an offer that fell through before closing in TV). Right after purchasing my TV house I had a medical emergency and had to fly back to NY for surgery. While I was recuperating, my home in NY sold and now I had no options - TV was going to be my new home. I moved in May '09 and my cold feet are still a little chilly! Remember for me its different - I'm not a couple. I know I will love living in TV but I think the cold feet part takes some time to get through. I bought a designer home at a great discounted price - I love it but had alot of second thoughts when I first moved in because its so big. My point is: take your time and really figure out whats good for you - nothings "written in granite" but its so much better if you come with a clear head and know for the most part what kind of house you want. The lifestyle in TV cannot be found anywhere else and its great but I'm sure others have had to take time to adjust to the change as I have. I'm putting on the "defroster" for my cold feet as I write this!!!
