You have to pay for a newspaper to find out what’s going on you have to pay for a service for tee time reservations, many of the house contractors the villages have an equity stake in, etc.
Yes, a buyer must do their own research and not expect someone to look after their personal interest. (They will be disappointed!) Or hire a professional who will do it for them. If you don’t look into it, don’t be surprised you bought swamp land, or high risk sink hole area etc. Caveat emptor.

As to fees for tee time, newspaper etc my first response is that services are never free. Who works for nothing? Of course you have to pay for them one way or another. ‘There is no such thing as a free lunch.’
