It is also easy to pick out those who either do not understand the economics/dynamics of real estate.
Overpriced? The first home we ever built in the 70's ws less than $50,000....one acre wooded corner lot......brick ranch...2100 square feet.....3 bedrooms...2 baths.....sold it 4 years later for almost $200,000.
Overpriced? No. Worth it? Of course, why would it not be?
If you don't like the price of the homes now....just wait a few years and see what happens. Of course the prices will be up even more!

You are right once again.
It is the same people over and over who have an agenda to be negative.
There are some who are realtors who have not been allowed to sell new homes by the builder. Some are those who live outside The Villages and are envious. Some are very involved with certain groups that start with a P that do not get big donations from the Morse family. It is mostly sour grapes.
And some are just not happy here. This place is for people who like to be involved with people. Some are happier in a more secluded area or somewhat distanced from neighbors. Some people have never had rules about deed restrictions and they don't like being told they can't do this or that.
All homes in our village are less than three years old. Our neighbor across the street sold their home last year and made slightly more than $90,000 more than they paid for it. Lots of you know where we live and you can look it up.
There are a lot of homes on the market right now, more than usual, as they gear up to finish. They are building, building, building. They will all sell and then when there are no more being built...well just wait and see.
We have lived here for eight years and they have been the most fun and least stressful time of our lives.
When you have been on the forum as long as Bille and I have you get to know who says what and why.
When you see a negative post, read back on their posts, most of them will be negative. Some people are NEVER happy.
