Before you go for your preview stay (or post view) check with your realtor. We did the same thing as you. We were to come down for a preview stay at the cottages at Lake Sumter Landing at a cost of $100/night to us. In the mean time we found a house we fell in love with on TV web site and put a purchase agreement on it before we came down for our preview stay. Our realtor informed us that now that we were technically owners now we were not intidled to stay at the cottages and or the preview visit and when we come to close we would have to find a hotel. My wife and I were a little disheartened to say the least since we were never down for the preview before and you hear from others who were wined and dined by TV before purchasing a home there. We still love our house and the lifestyle but that one incident sure left us with a bitter taste before we even got there.
