Had we taken our $$$ to On Top of The World in Ocala we could have bought a home one and half the times the size of our CYV, with an extra bedroom and a large 2 car garage not the 1.5 size we have now. The key to buy here was location, location, location. OTOW is a nice place but isn’t the Villages. Like my realtor friend used to say there’s a butt for every seat. Guess some butts ( I’ll refrain from using another term) have the extra cash and can afford a million dollar home.

I looked at OTOW and couldn't get past the rental of the property and the higher monthly fee and you are correct. Its NOTHING like here.
The house in question in this thread must be priced where it is for some reason. I don't think The Villages are normally too far off from what they ask to what they get?? There must be a reason thats valid and hasn't been uncovered by the staff on TOTV'S but I can tell you one thing for certain, it will sell. Maybe at a reduced price but there is a buyer for every home.
I really like the idea of doing your homework on prices and studying the area you are interested in so there is no buyers regret. The other thing is when you are schooling yourself with the prices you can strike like a Viper when you see the correct house and have Zero Buyers Remorse. Good job to the OP in uncovering this home that seems to be a Blip, price-wise!
