When I purchase a home in TV it will be a pre-owned home and one of the criteria will be low or no bond. I have looked at hundreds of listings over the last year and it seems to me that one can purchase a home with a very low or paid-off bond that is comparable in every way to one with a substantial bond balance for a comparable price, less the cost of the bond. I have always purchased pre-owned homes (15 and counting) over the years as I feel I can get more for my money, landscaping, add-ons, and with TVs bond situation, I feel it is even more compelling to buy used.
