Downeaster....How is that reveling to you? To me, I am surprised at how small the number is. The Villages now has almost 50,000 homes, so it's just over 1%. The Villages themselves have over 300 rental units for lifestyle previews and winter rentals with the new location opening in February. I am sure not all the rentals are available on that site, but it is the largest one. With this type of community, I would guess that many people buy and rent for a few years before moving there so I guess I would have expected numbers closer to 5000 then 500. Probably if all rental markets were known it would be higher then the 550, but doubt it is any more then double. So still only 2% of the market. Still seems low.
