Did you get your own MLS realtor to assist you or did you deal only with The Villages sales representatives? It seems to me that dealing only with The Villages sales representatives (even if the person assisting you isn't the one who is listed as the rep for the home being sold) is risky. In that case is anyone really looking out for the buyers best interest? Would love to know other peoples experiences. If you've bought new homes your input would be appreciated too.
Thank you.

We went with one particular Villages sales agent recommended by a friend. She was frequently in touch. We narrowed down our search to about 5 models and a location that would be suitable. Our house up north sold very quickly and we had to move quickly. We followed the market online like crazy. Ended up buying sight unseen because we couldn’t get down here! WE found the house...she didn’t. No regrets!
