Doesn't everyone pay the same? Thanks in advance for the info and advice. Excited to see all the Villages offers!

Villages realtors only have access to the houses that home owners list with them. You would be limiting yourself if you don't use MLS. You're not the one paying the fee; the home owner is. $500 is untrue. I pay $173.50. When I first moved in 6 years ago, fee was $149. Extremely normal increase!
