Actually, we were involved in a transactional broker purchase 2 years ago here in The Villages which didn't turn out well. Apparently in Florida, transactional brokers are allowed (representing both buyer and seller in the same transaction) and the broker does not even have to have either party (buyer or seller) sign a statement to that effect in Florida, unlike other states where we have successfully done transactional broker transactions.
Just watch out when you get a broker--some are definitely better than others!
