Didn't do their homework
We researched and looked at other retirement communities before buying here. We're coming up on 3 years. We moved to a new neighborhood,have made great friends,have a great time. We've met and seen on here of people who aren't happy. They claim they didn't know this or that, to many people and crowded ( true in the winter it's busy). My taxes are cheaper,my utilities are cheaper,my insurance is cheaper,food I find about the same. I don't pay state income tax so our pention goes further, all our bars,resteraunts,movie theathers, my doctors etc. are within 5 miles of my house, I only need the car for off property chores.I can take a shuttle to the airport anytime I need to.As for the house construction and price you can deff get a bigger house for a cheaper price elsewhere but you'll be coming to TV for a lot of your entertainment. I still think they build a darn good home for what we pay for them. They do use roof trusses and OSB instead of plywood but so are a lot of other builders today. All I can say is ask questions on TOTV and do your homework. One thing I did find more then up north was mr car registration which was a 1 shot deal. Good luck and don't worry about the small stuff.
