Default I just finished talking to a representative from The Villages marketing

department to get some clarification.
The age requirement is that one of the individuals buying a "new" home must be 55 years of age.

If both are younger than 55, each case is reviewed separately. As one can imagine there could be a single individual, or a couple or either with children.
The cut off on the age of the children allowed to live permanently is 18 or younger.

They said there is no magic number like 20% non 55.....

Regarding new....the home owner does in fact have the authority to sell to some one under 55. The best example is a couple in their 40's....the only requirement is the live and abide by the rules/restrictions of TV.

It sounds to me while there are "guidelines".....exceptions to the guidelines are handled on an individual basis.

So with the above minimal information one can interpolate, extrapolate or smell the next step.

Good luck
