If we had known the vast number of investment income properties in The Villages for short term rent, we would not have invested in buying our retirement home here. Each street has at least 2 short term rental properties. One never gets to know their neighbors. Face it, short term renters abuse our community and amenities, due to lack of vested interest. Sure, folks like to rent before considering to buy.. however, isn’t that what The Villages Lifestyle Program is for? We do not truly live in a Retirement Community. We do however live in a Vacation Club Community.
