We were advised not to discount looking at pre-owned homes and it turned out to be great advice! Many have a lot of upgrades already done, inside and outside so if you like them, you are $$$$ ahead! Ours was totally upgraded so all we had to do was move in. It was only 3 or 4 years old, so barely used and in a great location in Pinellas. That being said, I too would recommend doing a lifestyle visit or renting for a month or two to get a feel for the different areas to help you figure out what is most important to you. The Villages is building tons of houses each month so it doesn't seem like they will run out of new housing any time soon.
