For several reasons. First, a lot of used homes have already had work done like landscaping, paint, upgrades, etc... where new homes, although you can pick what YOU like, you would need to pay additional to have such work done. Also, used homes have had some, if not all of their bond paid, which may be attractive to buyers. Location is another consideration. If one likes a specific area more than the newer sections, that can play a roll in buying. Most of your bigger stores, Kohl's, Sam's, Bed, Bath & Beyond, etc... are all at the northern end of TV's and very little is at the southern end. I also see in my every day travels, it appears the southern end is a bit of a younger crowd. Makes sense! Believe me, there is no lack of homes for sale in TV's, both new and pre-owned. But if you find one you like, you need to move rather quickly because it won't be available for long.
