Another Brit crossing the pond….
Hi Sandy
Great decision.
We bought in 2020 just as covid hit and had to wait 2.5 years before getting to see our home for the first time.
Electric & water no choice.
Broadband & telecoms are EXPENSIVE over here compared to home. If you need internet all the time then you can go with a fixed contract. We have just signed up with Spectrum 300mps for $35 a month. We were using Xfinity pay as you go @ $45 for 30 days. No contract - we just paid when we were here. It was 75mps which was fine for the two of us to run 2 phones, laptops & Smart TV.
TV is mega expensive if the prices quoted by others are correct. We bought a Samsung Smart TV and have free access to UK Sky news, over 100 channels. We signed up to Netflix premium in UK and that works well here.
Tax & insurance is something else to watch out for… eg. How many days your in the US vs UK, not just in one year but over a period of 3+
PM me if you want to know anything else, tips advise etc.
