Don't let anyone talk you out of a golf course and water view. We have lived in our designer championship golf course front home with a beautiful water view now for 24 years. Homes built in 2001 have the hurricane clips. Every day that we open our blinds/curtains we are still in awe of the view.
Every single day. Most of our neighbors on our side of the street have sold only when they moved to assisted living or passed away. Homes on our side very rarely go up for sale and sell immediately in the $600,000 plus range.
Buy what you love the first time and there's no need to ever move.
By the way, construction quality on the Designer and Premier homes built in the early 2000's, is far superior to newer homes, we have friends who moved here and bought new down south, they have lots of problems due to poorer build quality. Have a structural engineer do your home inspection either way. You will never regret having a beautiful golf front/water view, but you will regret not having one everytime you open your windows and see your neighbors house directly behind you.
