At that time we plan on buying a larger home to be our forever home in paradise. From my rather short time being a homeowner in TV I have come to the conclusion that it really doesn't matter what home you live in, you are blessed to be in such a beautiful and wonderful and fun community.
Welcome to TOTV Bwint7,
We are in the same boat as you. Both my wife and I are educators who live 2 hours away, Melbourne Beach, who bought a patio villa here to be our "fun home". My wife calls it her "happy place". In a couple years when we retire, we will probably sell both homes and buy a larger one here. Don't know though. I truly love the home we are in.
