Seems that the realtor arrangement/lineup in The Villages is more complicated than it should be!
If you are looking for a new home,only agents from The Villages can work with you.
If you are looking at pre-owned you need a MLS agent and a Villager's agent.
I would contact both type of agents and give them your wishlist for a home.
