Any advice would be much appreciated.

We purchased with the same timeframe. We purchased furnished so we didn't have to worry about the furniture. We only rent Jan-March to offset some of the expenses & less wear & tear on the house. We talked to The Villages Homewatch (didn't hire them) & they supplied us with a list of items that would be required. We fulfilled most of the list. Renting Jan-March is relatively easy. The other months are a bit tougher. Good Luck on whatever you decide.
