Hello Max, I believe we exchanged posts back in May. We sold our home in Bel Air in 18 hours and closed on June 29th and closed on our new courtyard villa here on July 5th. It took us about a month to get settled. A big part of the blame belongs to Mayflower since they didn't deliver our household goods until July 24th. The good news is they gave us a $2000 refund for being so late. I guess I should of known better since they helped move the Colts out of Baltimore.

We live in Tamarind Grove and at first I regretted being so far from Lake Sumter Landing and Spanish Springs, but once you learn your way around it's not so bad. I played golf at Mallory today and only took less than 15 minutes by cart, last week at Havana and it was even lesser. Saturday we went to Spanish Springs for the car show and only took about 25 minutes. So don't eliminate Buttonwood, Tamarind Grove or St. James just because they are a little far south. They will also be that much closer to the new square when it's built.
