I guess being "soft" is going to be make The Villages just another " all about me" neighborhood.. It's getting old fast.
They do not understand the danger of driving carts at higher speeds. Could care less what renters are doing in their home. And, many see flipping their homes after one year is a sure fire way to make money. In the end, it will probably crash and burn. The real estate market is full of pitfalls. Will they care if it crashes? Probably not. Most live out of state.

I do not understand who is buying these over-priced one and two year old homes. A buyer can purchase a new home for 50 - 100 thousand less and gain equity instead of throwing that money away. To me, it doesn't make sense.

I think homes being built in the Eastport area will slow resales. A smart buyer will see purchasing a home in that area is a better investment. The new square is going to outdo Brownwood in so many ways- 3 Championship golf courses, an expansive lake, and indoor pickleball to name a few.
