But we already have a nice house, so we just dont want to trade one nice house & move for another nice house..It really is the community and the closeness to activities we like is our main reasons we want to relocate. I have had homes in 2 golf communities before & I got looks like WHAT, You dont golf ?. I just dont think my back & knees could take it..I digress. We watch videos everyday to see all the Rec centers & squares to find what we really like.. Sumter Landing seems to have mature trees and landscaping, the quick food, drinks and small shops, the evening dance music & festivals that interest us. So with the development moving south, after our first visit- when its hot, and we are agree with ourselves that is where we want to be- we will start looking for homes just a little south of Sumter Landing maybe in the Virginia Trace or Sunset Pointe areas. Then a winter 2nd visit when it is crowded possible to look around again or buy a home. Wherever we end up.... The beaches & fishing are my hidden agendas for moving..and if I remember my visit to Orlando.... y'all have cleaner air.

Lifestyle visits are geared for new construction. They have very little incentive to show you the established mature areas. In fact their agents can only sell properties they list. If you have an interest in buying a re-sell you will need to get an MLS agent involved.
