Any tips or tricks?

Thanks

Lifestyle visits are a great way to get a taste of The Villages. You'll enjoy it.
For me, a one-car garage is a non-starter. That situation might work for some, but I think nearly everyone would recommend something bigger.
There are cottage villas with straight-in driveways and larger garages in the newer areas.
I'd also recommend having a look at the veranda series homes. These homes have fenced-in back yards and you have many floorplans and garage options to choose from.
I agree with the replies that recommend a 2 1/2 car garage. You won't regret having the extra space and it will be an attractive resale feature in the future.
