I am in the process of purchasing a resale (I close June 5). I looked at both new and resale and fell in love with a little bit older 2 bedroom designer home in the "historic" section of the Villages. The house is in perfect condition (as reinforced by an incredibly good housing inspector)- I don't evenhave to freshen the paint.
Everyone has there own tastes but the fact that I could find a great house, in move-in condition, that had no bond and wonderful landscaping sold me on pre-owned. I am looking forward to spending vacations there and getting to know the neighborhood until I can move in full time in a few years.
