why visit before moving?
#3
We visited 5 times before moving, the last visit for a month. Then my wife, son and I voted yay or nay to stay, we were only moving if it was unanimous. It was and here we are 8 years later. No regrets, as we all quickly adapted. Strange as it sounds, I think coming from the Midwest helped (Chicago area), along with a decade of experience in Japan...it was a very natural transition...for whatever reason.

If I could do it over I'd probably rent for at least half a year before buying, and maybe not buy at all (only because it would be cool to have the flexibility to move around to different parts of the island).

Best of luck to you in making the move!
