Thanks--i have the webcam URL to checkout progress. I also know who owns FP and who is developing it. I'm an investor in the senior housing industry. I've just heard nothing but good things about Freedom Pointe, but those have all been from people that you would expect to say nothing but good things. I know that there are about 70,000 people living in the villages, with 90,000 expected by the time Freedom Pointe opens. Since there are 249 units, that would mean that the owners would need only 1 in every 361 Villages residents to sign-up during the next 18 months. It seems like they should be have deposits for all 249 units, plus a waiting list, since the Villages is age-restricted, right? That begs the question--is it so pricey that the number of potential residents is really only a small fraction of Villages residents--or is the real estate market getting worse and therefore people are worried about being able to sell their house? It seems like if it were a slam dunk best thing since sliced bread, they would have 100% of the units with deposits already. Would love any feedback--much appreciated.
