Greek,

A resident ID can be issued to (1) anyone on the deed to the house, regardless of where their primary residence might be or (2) anyone whose primary residence is a Villages address, regardless of whether they rent or own the property.

In the case of (usually) longer term rentals, the resident owner can "turn in" his/her resident ID(s) and for a $50 fee have their resident privileges transferred to their renters.

Your situation is still not clear... will you become a permanent FL resident at this home? If so, it's an easy process to get a resident ID for no fee.

There is no such thing as an automatic allowance of 2 IDs per house; basically, resident IDs are issued to those who own the home or those who live there permanently. (the one aberration being the situation where an owner relinquishes his/her ID(s) for renters.

If this is still unclear, I suggest you or the owner call the Villages customer service center and explain your situation. They should be able to explain all your options.
