That is what happened to me on my lifestyle visit back in 2009. The Villages agent steered me to new houses only, showing me just a couple already built spec homes. Even after I repeatedly requested he show me resales he evaded doing so even once. He told me if I spotted one driving around to call him. LOL! Why should I do all the work and he get a commission? Plus I would want info on a house before viewing it, not just a driveby. I changed to another Villages agent and also engaged a Realtor on MLS.
