Properties of The Villages focuses on new construction. Pre-owned is secondary. They have fewer listings, but they tend to close them more quickly on average than MLS companies.
There are more MLS listings than there are VLS listings, but they tend to take longer to sell and often have price reductions before they go into pending status.
Totally anecdotal, but I've seen two homes in my area that were initially listed with MLS, that remained unsold for many months. Both of them eventually switched to VLS, and the properties sold after only a couple-three months once Properties of The Villages re-listed under their own company.
