Hello! My husband and will will most likely retire in about 4 years. We had the same thought about purchasing a house (back in 2007). We did not know if we could rent if full time (which is more difficult) or just rent for 3-4 months for the snow birds. For that we needed to furnish the place and we did so and after renting for 3 months in 2008, the financial crisis came, prices of properties dropped considerably. But somehow we were lucky and found a renter in 2009 that stayed the Jan-March period, asked us to extend till April and, since then has been renting our place from Nov-May. He loves it, we love it too. It helps us to offset costs, we are able to spend summer time and enjoy vacation there and prices are now back to what they were back in 2008, which is good for all of us. Good luck on what you choose. We looooove TV and I am happy we alerady found our city, our house and hopefully will be there to enjoy it for many years to come! Best,
