Default Welcome to The Villages!

We too are building in Moultrie Creek. Last year was our first year here and no complaints. The only area for improvement is space. Everyone I’ve spoken with has mentioned something similar. If your budget can afford it, I suggest golf cart extension, garage extension, lanai extension, and home extensions. Think of it as an investment. Your home value will only go up and if your house offers those key extensions will pay off in more space and value.
Good luck,
Pete

We are new to the villages and I am not retired yet so getting the house we want is more desirable. Also, it's the excitement of 2 new communities right by us. It is my understanding that we will see appreciation in home value given the early stage of development. We can build a nicer home for less then some of the new builds listed in the Village of Dabney (for example). The appreciation would cover us against a potential real-estate mistake. We understand the bond.

We are bought in on the active lifestyle promise the Villages has to offer. We have taken the tour and spent a couple days exploring. My wife and I love it.

I would greatly appreciate feedback on any of the topics I mentioned. Looking for tips, advice or any other helpful hints. Thanks in advance.
