And Susan, if you don’t already know, in the Villages you need to work with 2 different real estate agents, one from the Villages real estate, and one from a “regular” real estate company such as ReMax or whoever. The Villages real estate does NOT co-broke, so if you are only working with them, you are only seeing their new construction and only homes they have listed. A ReMax or whoever agent can show you all the other homes available that the Villages agent can’t. And there are many. As a real estate agent myself, I fully support agent loyalty, but in FL agents work as “Transaction Brokers” They do not represent either the buyer or seller, they only facilitate the transaction. No fiduciary responsibility. So make sure you check both sides of availability.
