Annabelle - my hubby and I were going through the same decision making process that you are going through about two years ago. We couldn't afford to keep two houses, but we didn't know if we wanted to keep the house in Michigan near our daughter and grandchildren and rent in Florida during the winter months. Or buy in Florida and rent in Michigan during the summer months. We are soooo glad that we decided to sell the house in Michigan and move here full time. (And our summer expedition up to Michigan will probably be for only a couple of weeks instead!) We were bored at our house in Michigan. Everyone around us was working and there was nothing to do. We maybe got to see the grandkids on the weekend if the daughter didn't have something better to do! We were becoming couch potatos! Not here!!!! Our calendar is so full.....we have never been this busy just playing. Now we see the grandkids every week on Skype, and then we can go back to our fun!
