Right now it looks like it is about six months to build a house. That's 3 or 4 months after you buy a lot to get a design appointment and 2 or so more for the build. But that timing changes all the time.
Comcast Business offers 1G internet in some places in the Villages; you need a specific location to know for sure. It costs around $300 a month.
If you are going to build, then you are going to have to come down here for the design process and then wait about six months to move in.
There are always lots of resales available though.
As far as closing if you are buying new, The Villages has a tight requirement, but it would be best to talk to a Villages salesperson for all the details of the timing of things.
When we came to the Villages for the first time on a Friday, bought a new, already built, house on Saturday, and moved in a month later. We're still the same house seven years later.
The problem with taking your time is that you can't. Once you see a house or lot that you want if you don't buy it, then it will be gone in a month or maybe a day.
The question you have to answer for yourself is, do you want to move to central Florida or The Villages. A vacation to the area might help you make that decision. If you are sure, then buy it as soon as you are ready.
