Also, how was your experience with building?

The answer was given to you by the Village's rep - you can only pick from what the Villages builds. They are the contractor, on their lots, on their terms, on their schedule. That applies to new builds. You can buy a pre-owned and remodel it with your own contractor providing appropriate building permits and ARC approval which basically enforces a bunch of rules related to your house exterior and landscaping. What you do to the inside is your choice. There is a color pallet covenant here and you must play by those rules for the exterior of your house new or used. It may differ neighborhood to neighborhood especially Villas. Some Villa neighborhoods every unit is the same color.
