I agree with you on the guest policy , but we will have to agree to disagree on your above statement. I have no problem with people 50 to 54 being able to buy in TV. This is how it is with all 55+ communities. 80% must have one member 55 or older. I was told that TV policy is that you need to be at least 50 so you will role over into the 55+ fairly quickly. (Although I cant imagine the number below 55 is even 5%.)
Second I see rentals as a boost to TV. It brings future buyers here and it actually makes things less crowded. People that buy a second property as a rental still pay their amenity fees 12 months a year even if they are only able to rent it out 5 months a year. So you have more homes built, more amenity fees paid, but those living in the home may only use the facilities 50 % of the year. I would equate not liking rentals to not liking snowbirds.
But again I like your ideas about guests not using our facilities.
