Re: WHY SO MANY RESALES LISTED THAT SAY BARELY LIVED IN?
My experience with those that sold their almost new home in my neighborhood was due to the following:
1. One of the couple passed away in the first year of moving to the villages.
2. They had to return to care for a parent.
3. They bought a small house to keep their investment low and then upgraded to a larger home after they were sure of their decision.
4. In some cases that I know about, the company that they retired from went bankrupt and they lost their medical coverage and some of their pension.
5. Some moved here from south Fl. to get away from the hurricanes and many were in their late 70's or early 80's and they had health issues which deteriorated quickly.
6. Lastly, some people lost most of their assets in the stock market downturn and had to sell to reclaim their investment to live on and pay off their expenses.
