Approved a set of preliminary plans (we had requested 4 stretches, could only get 3). 80 days from ground breaking to completion. Since we were not in the area, we were sent electronic photos of the process of the build.
What went wrong, we missed getting upgraded carpet, will be doing this shortly. We did not have tile laid on the diagonal (additional cost), in hindsight it probably would look better. there were a few other small items that there was no way to predict until after we lived in the house. Good luck with your project, hope this helps.

Folks this gentleman is one of the most knowledgeable , intelligent and practical of anyone you may have the privilege of meeting here .
You would save yourself a lot of potential pain to listen closely to what he has to say about anything related to becoming a homeowner in The Villages or anywhere else .
He is that very knowledgeable no BS friend that you would hope to meet . I respect him very much .
