Others, especially those going for a retirement visa, are probably not interested in paying rent while waiting for a house they paid for to be built. CCC was fortunate in his timing, having to move from one paradise, Bethlehem, PA, to another. He could have paid less rent for a one bedroom in Christmas City, but he never contacted me. He was willing to give up Musikfest, Coca Cola Park and the Iron Pigs, and now Phantoms hockey just started in Allentown.
He must of also been willing to give up the wonderful Bethlehem winters as well. The sacrifices some people make.
