Set your comfortable price range, moving timeline and preferred home style. Separate must-haves from nice-to-haves: bedrooms, stairs, parking, yard space, storage and upkeep.
Visit the home at different times. Check the actual public path entrance, road crossings, nearby activity, outdoor privacy and the trips you will make most often.
Request current documents for the master association and any sub-association. Confirm fees, special assessments, reserves, rental restrictions, renovation approvals and maintenance responsibilities.
A view does not establish access rights. Verify shoreline use, lake programs and golf privileges separately. Consider ball exposure, cart paths and maintenance activity at golf-facing properties.
Review renovation permits and records, inspection findings, major systems, roof and pool condition. Use qualified professionals to investigate property-specific concerns.
Discuss financing, your current home if you need to sell, closing timing and the costs of ownership. Compare the full picture rather than purchase price alone.
