Housing in TV - how many times have you moved?
 

A Realtor here told me that the average Villager moves three times. I found that hard to believe ... until I did it myself! I was positive I was settled in for the long haul, but then a house across the street from my sister came on the market, and things changed.

Have you moved since you've been here and if so, what prompted the change? House too small, too large, neighborhood issues?

i thought the average was 2.5....we are at 2....bigger house

Twice. Second house was Bigger with nicer finishes

Once in 1st. Year. Started with bigger house to skip house 2 and 3.
Two neighbors did build across the street from their first house to be on the golf course

moved in once; have no desire to trade in our neighborhood for anything else. and a larger house means more stuff to get in our way. we like the simplicity of our 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car home. and packing and un-packing is a real pain in the ***!

Move here in 2001 and am still in the same abode. I have no desire to upgrade or downgrade.

Three times. Villa to an interior lot designer to a designer with a view in seven years.

I live in the home I purchased in 2006 because I have this thing about becoming attached to my homes, cars, clothes, golf clubs,

attached to.....
 

and your spouse? and pet(s)?:024:

Bought two and a Hal years ago in Piedmont & now building in Gilchrist

5 times total in 5 years

owned courtyard villa, premier and designer

rented courtyard villa and designer

Why? - very, very long story.

I heard the same thing when we first moved here and wondered why on earth anyone would move 2-3 times while living here. Now I know and can sum it all up in one word "life"

We started in 2007 with a two bedroom CYV. Since we are only in TV six months a year, we thought a small CYV would do. But we didn't realize we'd be getting a lot of visitors! We moved in 2010 to a larger home (same Village) with a huge garage which accommodates Fireboy's hobby - the garage is full of E Flyers. In 2010, we actually moved twice, because we also sold our home in Canada and bought another one on a lake.

We love our home and our Village (Belevedere). But I think another move is a future possibility. I've always enjoyed the challenges of moving, renovating and redecorating.

You couldn't pay me to move. Too much work - I'd rather spend the time with my friends and keeping busy with all the activities here.

Wow that's a self-serving statement wonder how the realtor defines äverage villager"? I don't trade my crs that often. In fact I drove my van for 11 years before I traded it in. I told the car dealer that this was my last car purchased he laughed until I cited mortality stats given my age and my past record of running my cars to the ground. I mean as an investment cars are a depleting asset:spoken:

So looks like about 1.67 times is the average for TOTV members who chose to answer. We're dragging down the totals! :laugh:
