Default Downsizing

Your decision depends on your lifestyle, full time vs seasonal resident, plans for free time party-hardy or homebody who likes gardening, etc.. We were among the unfortunates who looked in 2004 but did not buy unti 2005-l 2006 period. We wanted a premiere but found that the prices about doubled and then at those prices they were telling you what you were going to get. So we listed what we wanted in a house and what we intended to pay resulting in purchase of a designer 3/2. Based on my lifestyle, etc sorry that we didn't purchase premiere because it will cost us substantial to add the addition we desire and with that we are limited. If we were seasonal residents or even if we traveled more might think differently? I also wish I had known about Harbor Hills as the homes there offer so much more for the same or lower prices. We could move to another house I suppose but I won't take the loss. Good luck in your search.
