Quixote, I think your post was meant to be your opinion. But many living in TV have chosen their homes carefully, having done due diligence, and basing their decisions on what is right for them. I came down to look last May with no preconceived notions about what I may find. I looked at spec homes, pre-owned and lots to build on. I knew the basic model I wanted after touring through many models and resales, and in the end decided to build. It was the right decision for me, but not for everyone. That is the nice thing about living there. Generally people are happy with their choices and glad to be living the lifestyle. I do however have to agree with Jimbo on part of his post. The building codes have changed since they first started building there. For example, the roofing, concrete, etc. Structurally, I think almost all the homes are sound, though. I also stayed in Creekside Landing and found my model home to be quite nice! Didn't notice the siding particularly, but it is concrete underneath which seems the important aspect to me. Just my opinion, not passing judgment...
