I guess life was much simpler when my wife and I did our lifestyle visit in 21 years ago in 2003. We spent a week in a villa near the Lopez country club, drove around in a rented car, visited used homes and model homes, and after The Villages agent took us to the "new area" south of 466, decided on a lot in the village now called Bonny Brook. No houses existed south of 466 at the time because TV only sold a dream. They started building spec houses on one of the Palmer golf courses a few months after we moved in (March of 2004).
The point of this post is that purchasing a home doesn't really need to be as complicated as some people have said. Just come on down and check the place out for a week. If you like what you see, buy it. We live in the same house originally had built, made a few improvements over the years, learned to play golf, joined a couple of pool (billiard) leagues, took line dancing lessons, etc., etc. We are happy as a bug in a rug!
