Welcome to The Villages - is a very beautiful place to live! Especially if you are golfers. If not there is still so many things to do and enjoy your calendar will be full!
We've been renting out three properties here in TV for the last 4 years, with the 1st two years handled by Down Home Properties which were a total disaster from day one!. But honestly none of the Property Managers around TV are worth the money including The Villages who are probably the best except very expensive and difficult to deal with.
The last two years we switched all of our Rentals to Long Term Leases, manage the process ourselves, and regret not managing them ourselves from the beginning.
There are a number of websites avail to you to find good renters (Zillow is very good) and there are at least 3 others.
