If you don't get your loan by the closing date that they set, you are fined $250 per day for each day that you are late.
Unless I was paying cash, it will be a resale for me if I ever buy another home here.
In addition, many of the resales have the bond paid off. This is not small matter sometimes adding $25,000 and up to the cost of your home.

After eight months on the market I finally sold my beautiful Gardenia for $27,000 less than listing price. Owned it for 13 years and put over $30,000 in updates. Took a real loss and would never use the Villages Agents for anything again..nothing but problems and all they want to do is sell the new homes with their huge bonds.
