Thanks, Angelhug,
Yes. I have been with the same engineering/construction management firm, up here in Wisconsin, for almost 23 years. They have completely ratified my relocation and want me to work for them, full time remote, for as long as I wish. I'm really blessed.
I'll be working through the time it takes to get housekeeping set up, put a new car in the garage, and pay the mortgage to zero.
I have been planning this move for almost a year, already, and will continue to plan, scrimp, and research through the home-buying process....that will start in April, after I've sold up here, and moved into a furnished month-to-month rental, in The Villages. I'll be renting so that I am under minimal pressure to buy quickly. A "motivated buyer" is a disadvantaged buyer.
