Interest rates are relevant. If a future Village resident’s current home is unsaleable due to high interest rates or the prices on said home sinks, decision to move may be postponed or voided. Who knows how the current financial mess will shake out. We now have many additional residents in the US purchasing limited products which can also fuel inflation. There are many factors to be considered.
