Lots of answers but I agree that a Villa up north would be your best option for lower prices. Try to stay in Sumter county as the taxes are so much lower than other areas. Taxes are the one thing I hate about living in Marion County. In Sumter the taxes for a designer home can be around $2000 but in Marion County a Villa is now over $6000. They tell you that taxes are higher but no way did I expect it to be over 3x higher.
