That agent should have been reported to the Florida Real Estate Commission.
Overall I have found that Villages' agents list a property for a higher price so that if the house does not sell within a reasonable amount of time, they can make a price change and reduce it.
From what I understand, you have no leeway in the amount of time for the term of the listing if you list with the Villages.
I believe the minimum is six months and if you re unhappy with the service you are getting (or rather, the lack of service), it's too bad.
MLS Realtors have the luxury of making changes in the listing contract, but not so with Villages' contracts.

The agent did take the offer. But I'm sure it was something like "here is an offer that I'm sure you won'
t want to accept" She contacted me a couple of weeks later and said it was not accepted.
