A few years ago, before the housing bubble, a Villager of my acquaintance listed her house for sale with a Villages agent as she was purchasing another home in The Villages. To say she was disappointed with its lack of being shown is a grievous understatement. It was very difficult for her to carry two house for several months. According to her The Villages put next to no effort to market her home. She pleaded with them to try to show it but to little avail. The listing finally expired and she listed it with an MLS Realtor who did sell her home in a short period of time.
