Depends on what lifestyle you are looking for and how soon you want it. If you place a value on long nature walking trails then buy in the new build-area. If you are planning on full time residency right away and don't want to wait for a full menu of amenities, then look in the northern sections. If you want to be able to do just about anything via golf cart and don't want to wait for development/connectivity, avoid Fenny. If you place a great value in Championship golf that you can easily get to in your golf cart, avoid the new build out areas. I have no doubt that the new build out areas will eventually be spectacular, but there is clearly not an emphasis in Championship golf but instead different amenity options geared toward the next generation of retires. Since we place a high value on Championship golf and being able to do just about anything we want via our golf cart, the new build out areas are not for us. And we only have a finite amount of active years left, so we certainly don't want to wait. That's why we bought in the Lake Sumter/Spanish Springs area.
