Your looking at all the angles,, and not letting the taste of the koolade cloud your judgement. If you think of the amount of money you have to tie up to have a place here for part time use it makes NO SENSE at all, unless you have more money than you can spend, or need a tax write off to make it quasi rental property. If you find the correct rental unit you can come here many many years before you even come close to making a dent in the amount of funds to make a prudent investment. You must figure maintenance on the home (due to the rain folks are learning they must paint brand new homes so they dont leak), golf cart expenses (cart maintenance is worse then keeping a car running). The utilities with tenants is like giving them a blank check they set the thermostats at times so cold you can hang meat in the house (it is not there money). Take good hard look before you buy if your not full time here. You say there are many that to do it? Just go to a casino to see this many other delusional folks who ignore the facts
