And I use asking price and selling price. However selling price I am delayed for about 60 days in getting the information. But take it to the bank that homes prices in TV are moving in a positive direction. Also the gap between asking price and selling price for the resale market is starting to close.

We just purchased a home and will make settlement in January. I was doing something similar. I began tracking asking/selling prices from the listings offered through "The Villages Properties."
I agree that the gap is closing. The Zillow site is also showing the Village Homes on the rise. Although I am grateful for the recovery, I sympathize with anyone who is still having trouble selling their properties elsewhere! Good luck to all.
