We looked around the Villages for two years before renting for the winter. We worked with independent realtors and FSBO leads. For those two years we were on the record with Holly Knowles of Property of the Villages. We looked at 40-50 homes with Holly and not once was there any pressure. When we narrowed down exactly what we wanted, she called us about a new release one morning. We were on the golf course, left after the second hole and looked at our dream home that afternoon and purchased it with 2 months left on our rental.

Thanks to Holly, we had the first shot at this new home that was the first one nearly completed in the neighborhood and on the block we wanted. Subsequently met at least three other couples that wanted the house. There was a little tension when we met a couple at the front door who insisted they were promised the house and had been on the list for a year. We explained that we worked with Holly for two years and that seemed to smooth the ruffled feathers. Very professional and easy to work with. We liked the fact that there was never any pressure to buy and always pleasant and accommodating when looking at listings.
