It is just so lovely. We've met so many absolutely wonderful people along the way. Our neighbors in the entire villa sub-section couldn't be any more welcoming and friendly. I haven't come across one disgruntled soul in all of TV except on ToTV, What is it about anonymity that brings out the worst in people? Well, wait, let me restate. What is it about anonymous social media platforms and emergency departments that bring out the worst in people? One does not compare to the other, yet there they are.

Ha! We did the same! But we paid in advance for two months to search the neighborhoods, get a better feel for the place... I was sold on our first visit (Thanksgiving 2019), visiting friends. But SWMBO was quite sure, so we compromised and decided on an extended stay for her to be sure...
I spent that 13 months (between our fist visit and our extended stay) showing her listing after listing, driving her absolutely insane!
We arrived Christmas Eve, looked at just over a dozen homes and found one the first week of January. We made an offer, went back and forth for a day or three and they accepted our first counter.
We closed in late February, a 10 days before our rental ended...
As to your last point, you nailed it... Anonymity... People will act much differently if you don't know who they are.
Personally, I've always used my real name on Forums... I've got noting to hide...
