Congratulations Coop63.

Great choice! You will be super happy building there, building new and picking your model and appointments. Beckylou152 is absolutely correct. TV does any amazing job of developing and creating areas for a superb experience. We have been coming to TV for 2 years. Looking for the right model/lot. Patience is absolutely essential if you are looking for something that fits your goals and desires. They have enough land to build for the next 20 years so dont jump at the first lot. When we started looking, they were still building homes in Richmond!!!!!!! Look at it now. If you look at the pattern, every town square has gotten better. Eastport will be amazing. Yes, new builds are "less" expensive than pre-owned. You need to deal with construction for the next two years but you will be rewarded nicely for it. My friends purchased in Lake Denham just 30 days ago. Same home now in Moultrie Creek is going for 40k more!!! Moultrie Creek will be a PRIME location because of how close it is to Eastport. Find the model you like first. Stretch it all that you can, and add the most garages you can. Build it to the appointments of your choice from the start and move in super happy. Taxes are not based on purchase price. Counties tax on the assessed value of the land mostly and then on the "building" by square footage. Once you pick a model, go searching for the perfect lot. In my opinion, and of course my taste, find a premium lot. Water, golf, preserve etc. That is what locks in your appreciation not even considering your day to day view!!!!!

Exciting times! I too still work and decided to move here pre Retirement full time. This is the place to be. Eastport will be the premiere fun square. Let's enjoy! Good luck and congratulations again!
