Just returned home to Hawaii after several days visiting TV. This was our fourth visit (had 3 previous LSVs). We rented a home through TVPM. All went well. Home was nice and clean with a beautiful view of a large pond and golf course (street name was Inner Circle). After looking at homes for several years we finally decided on an Ivy model. Needed an extra large lot on a golf course because of the GC garage, bump outs, stretches through the middle, lanai and room for a 22' deep bird cage. Our sales agent found the lot we needed so we placed the deposit on it. First available design appointment is in late December. Earliest construction start is sometime in March 2013. I found none of the limitations on construction that have been mentioned on previous post. We ask to delete one of the four bedrooms to make a super large MBR closet and enlarge the remaining two bedrooms, no problem. We asked to move the washer, dryer, and deep sink into the garage, no problem. Our sales agent even provided a plot drawing of how the house would fit on the lot and a drawing of the altered floor plan we requested, all in one day. Finding the extra large lot allows us to get a designer instead of a premier and save on the bond cost. The lot is on Amherst Way on the Bonifay GC. So far, everything we have asked to change has been approved. I can only hope that continues through the design appointment. Our sales agent is Jeannie Ulmer. Since I have only dealt with her, I cannot evaluate how other agents compare but I do believe your sales agent, and their working relationship with management, has a lot to do with how many changes you are allowed to make. Every facet of our dealings with TV has been professional, competent and customer friendly. Nothing negative to report to this point. I will continue to post as we progress through the system.
