A lot of experiences have to do with the real estate PERSON you deal with. I would not list with the villages because their focus is on selling new properties.
The Villages sells just about as many re-sale homes as all of the MLS companies combined. I'm not saying which way is better but numbers don't lie. Picking the right agent is more important than which way you go. With MLS agents there are top listers and top sellers if listing to sell I think you know which ranking to go with.
