The Florida law 509.032 mentions law, ordinance, or regulation but does not mention deed restriction. This likely means it would not invalidate a Villages deed restriction (but that would be up to a court to decide).

No one has yet cited a case ruling against renting in the Villages.

Thank you for doing some research and providing links but I'm still feeling pretty good about my understanding of things.
I'm confused about the whole issue, but then again I have no specific real estate or restrictive covenant knowledge, so this may be a stupid question: Isn't TV primarily zoned for single family residences, so how does 6 unrelated individuals fall into that category? Does zoning only apply to the owner and not to whomever they rent to? Isn't there some sort of remedy for this?

Which leads to the question of what's next. Section 8 housing???? Halfway houses? Homeless shelters??? Bronx style high rise tenements? Are we primarily a 55+ retirement community or a 1 week vacation destination and flop house for illegal aliens?
