Designer home... about $22,000 or $23,000

We have been hearing some ridiculous prices and had a friend who is interested in looking there.

We bought on Silk Tree Road but have to sell our Miami home before we start construction. We are planning to visit the weekend of September 18 --anyone going to be there then? Would live to meet you!

Perhaps the $ you heard was for a permier home? I think those bonds can run about double?

We closed on our house in Hunters Creek on Friday and we are renting for a few months to make a decision. Sanibel looks lovely, does anyone know when the next village will start to sell lots?

What about more shopping along 466A? any news on that?

speaking of the bond....I have been "encouraging" my husband that we should buy a pre owned home with the bond at least partially paid! But I think he likes the new ones........

We wanted a new one... but there are pros and cons to both!

I hope this ends up on the right page --keeps going somewhere else -- we bought on Silk Tree Road but have to sell our home in Miami before we can start construction. We will be visiting again on the weekend of September 17. If anyone is going to be around we'd love to meet you.

Just put a reserve on a lot in Sanibel......now I'm really getting nervous. Someone said there were a lot of Illinois folks in Sanibel.....we are from Sterling, IL originally,but we've been living in Hunters Creek Orlando for 11 years.
