Work with one of each. The Properties of The Villages sales reps have a reputation of listing pre-owned homes but selling new homes. They do that because they have no competition selling new homes—independent brokers are prohibited from selling new homes in The Villages.

If you’re convinced that all you want is a new home, then you’re fine using a TPoTV rep. But if you want to deal with a realtor who knows and will show you pre-owned properties, deal with an independent.
