Still, I guess there are a vast number of Purchasers who prefer to buy new.
Or who can be persuaded that new is what they really want.
I have been exposed to two Villages agents who were involved with us personally. The first was scheduled for vacation the second day we were here and she was very helpful but not directing us at all. She showed us the things we said we were interested in. Golf, art, and we had to ASK her to show us homes.. The second who eventually shared the commission with the first also was very helpful, savvy, and not pushy. AT ALL. Some people like to be guided, we like to have information and make our own decisions. Jim McLaughlin has since become our friend. He and Patti helped us find two lovely homes here and were professional in every way. We asked to look at resales the second time but decided we liked a certain model and are glad we built. The first home was a newly built spec home in Hadley. We so enjoyed it too.

I have heard of many people who asked to be reassigned to another agent because they didn't click with the first. Never heard of a problem doing that at all.
