The Villages does what is required by law. This is not their “first rodeo” and they have lawyers to make sure they do what is required by Florida law. That said, if you think more should be disclosed to buyers of property, regarding flood and sinkhole potential, then you should contact your Legislators and Governor to get laws changed in Florida. Understand up front the changes will not come easy. Regardless, due diligence when purchasing property is always the best thing to do.
