My cousin winters in Arizona [View all]

and reports that her retirement community is now up to at least 50 homes owned by Canadians that are up for sale. A few weeks ago she was surprised that there were about 5 already on the market. She tells me that in a normal year 5-10 get sold usually because one of the owners has died or because they have health problems that have made it difficult to travel.

Some of the people she's talked to are planning to get new homes in Mexico or Costa Rica.
