We "rented" for a few years until we decided to buy. Bought a Villa and we were "seasonal residents" for a time. We noticed that people there were not very friendly towards us until they found out that we owned the home we were in and did not rent it.
We sold that home within a year after that. That was not what we were looking for.
All of us have to realize if it wasn't for the whatever you want to call the non owners, we would not have the restaurants, retailers, golf courses, pools, etc. I could go on and on. All of us know what we have here is so unique and irreplaceable.
Probably safe to say we have been in their situation at one time or another when we first came here. Go back in memory of the residents that were understanding and helpful to us and try to be that way in our travels here when it starts to "heat up".
Too early to be on the pulpit............
