To Avocado......….

As DeWilson so nicely said.

Historically, selling this unit is consistent with the Developer's master plan (all generations, not just the current family members). They have done this with several restaurants, The Villages Transportation and The Villages Entertaiment and The wonderful Furniture Store.



They start companies/services to support The Villages, get it up and going (and yes, make money) and then sell it off. This allows them to focus on their core business.......Development.


Good Business Model.

P.S. Many of us don't trust or like the POA.
