Things have evolved and the southern inventory bubble is moving south. Looks like 70+ new home closings on the board this week, that's over $30 million in revenue the first week of 2024.

After several years of living in the south, required daily travel became a nuisance that we no longer wanted. Our life is much easier and relaxed now that we have returned to the northern area of the Villages. If you don't mind driving to places one hour away, I am glad you are happy. To each their own. We are fortunate to live in a community with many options.
BTW: If I wanted to drive to Orlando Regional from the northern section, it is merely a 15 minute longer drive. So, what is your point? New construction homes are 15 minutes closer to Orlando? That doesn't sound like a big incentive to buy new construction.
