That's false because the MLS Realtors cannot sell Villages' listed homes. The Villages will not cooperate with MLS Realtors, i.e., they will not pay them!

Years ago that was not the case. The Villages were MLS Realtors and then they got greedy and wanted the entire commission for themselves. They withdrew from the NAR (National Assn. of Realtors) and subsequently, do not have to abide by their Code of Ethics.
