Villagerjack I agree real estate is all about demand and The Village Developer does a tremendous job of marketing The Villages. If or when there is "buildout", prices could go down a bit because of demand but I doubt they will plummet. Some think prices of resales will go up but that is not the trend in other retirement communities that have built out. Of course, there is no place like The Villages so who really knows---most of us will have "passed" by build out anyway---a sobering thought.
