[quote=Anonymous]1. if on the water, be prepared to replaced outdoor lights and fixtures every 1-2 years, roof every 5-6 years, paint every 2-3 years, and that is WITHOUT hurricane/tropical storms 2. Having to buy everything for a second home really adds up: consider random things like lightbulbs, baby Tylenol for the kids, spices for cooking, batteries etc etc that you collect over the years that you have to buy all at once for a new home. 3. Doing chores/repairs for at least one day a visit 4. You will spend more on entertainment that you would at home, even if you (we) thought you would just cook at home, when you have houseguests (which you will!) you will be entertaining 5. Cost of travel, wear/tear on car[/quote]
