Insurance on our Condo was $1800 a year and that was just "inside the walls" on 1700 sq ft and contents. Flood insurance was so high that the HOA dropped it which means if there was a "water surge" from a hurricane you had no insurance on the lower floors which everybody had to cover. However, if you want to dance you have to pay the fiddler!

However, the best of all worlds is to rent a Condo on the beach for a "beach fix" and still have a home in TV. Something to consider.

Apparently a huge percentage of sales in TV are from other areas of Florida. The range of activities and music in the squares are a big incentive among other things.

Once we arrived and we're looking at homes, many suggested buying outside of TV....which left me puzzled because we came for what is offered here not less..if we wanted less we could have stayed in our beautiful home. We bought into the friendliness and found it and it is up to all of us keep it that way as the majority will rule.

You made the correct decision. Welcome home!
