Advice on buying
We have been looking off and on for 2 years really. We had to sell our other vacation home first which we just did last November. We were intent on building a home with pool but could never find the right lot, etc. Lo and behold, over the past 6 months, we decided to start looking at preowned homes so we worked with both a TV realtor and MLS realtor. As everyone else said, it is best to work with both because they have two different inventories and they both have some great homes.
Two weeks ago we came down to look at an MLS home with a pool and at the last minute, decided to look at a similar home with a Villages realtor. Both were great but we found a great deal with the TV realtor home. If we had built the same home it would have cost us close to $100k more so all's well that ends well...we hope...still working on the financing. Cross your fingers. I never say we truly bought a home until we have the keys in our hot little hands.
