But to be fair, I owned a designer home with exactly the same problems. Our lanai viewed four other neighboring lanais. We saw them, heard them, knew what was going on in their lives. Even landscaping only somewhat minimized the problems.
So go with the home design that appeals to you.
Just remember to work with two realtors, if you are considering a pre-owned home.
Villagers Agents will want to sell you a new property in the new section. They will not show you any properties listed by MLS.
MLS Realtors cannot show you any properties listed by The Villages.
The two systems are totally independent of each other.
Good luck! Lots of decisions, it’s worth it
