I concur with others on here... a 2/2 for $250K ? ? I've seen mobile homes in the area where the villages first began, selling for more than that. Not trying to be like the "snarky" types on social media, but just go to the villages website, or a site like zillow, and type in a 1/1 villa and see what comes up. I think even the 1/1 will come up more than $250K range, but, if you're serious, just keep checking the websites. Could also go the sites of specific RE companies like Remax, Caldwell, etc. and put in the zip area you are seeking. You can do a LOT of research before you even arrive. I can tell you a good friend visited when we first moved into our home. They had no intention of buying anything here. During their visit, they went to see a villa "out of curiosity". It was a 2/2 colony cottage, they bought it with NO forethought or planning. The price was $102K. They rented it out most of the time, they used it themselves as a vaca home, they kept it very nicely but no remodeling with new floors, granite counters, nothing like that. They just sold it in December for $319K !
