Its kinda sad to watch if you move to T V thinking the lifestyle will equal making long term friendships. Once your here you figure out real fast you have snowbird friends and some year round ones if you are lucky not to be on an ABnB ally. My parent's loop is a ghost town except for the weekly cleaning crew coming in for the ABnBs.
Really? I thought The Villages disallowed realtors from buying homes MANY years ago for this exact reason of the flipping.
