This has been a most interesting thread. I have looked at TV homes on line for several years, and often thought I could see myself living in this house. When I go to The Villages, I try to visit as many open houses as I can in my price range so I get an idea of neighborhoods, room sizes, distance to shopping, etc.

One MLS agent has posted a few videos on YouTube of him touring homes a customer is interested in. Apparently she was shopping for TV homes from a distance. In the videos, he also included the surrounding neighborhood homes and the distance from the back of one house to Buena Vista Blvd. and the back of another house to Belvedere Blvd.

Thank you for starting this thread, Tomcat!
