I would rent until I was ready to move full time.
A great benefit to renting is that you could pick different Villages and types of home to get a feel for each. You could even move each month if you wanted to. I think the ability to learn about TV first hand before you buy is the key. Also, you do not know what may happen in your life to make that final move to TV unrealiztic and then you would have to sell the house.
I do not think the decision is a financial one for you, but rather a lifestyle decision. Forget the dollars when making up your mind.
