Default I Am Finally a Villager

Hi,

I have been lurking on this site for a few months as I was planning my move here. Well, it finally happened, and now I am in the process of doing all the work associated with moving. I have not even been here a week, but it already feels like home. Previous posts on TOTV have helped me pick home and auto insurance, look for some furniture, shop for a golf car, etc.

Thanks to all who have posted useful information for newbies.

Welcome!!! I wish my journey was only a few months. I started looking at TV 15 years ago............in my 40's. Stuck with the same Broker, what a trooper!! We just built this year and closed in September. I didn't quite meet the age requirements, but they gave me a waiver. Enjoy the process.

Welcome. We have our house but are not there yet. Save a place for us at the square.
