When judging price fluctuations on houses there are many factors to consider, and some are out of the control of the homeowner.
One of the main things that comes into play are you buying a house as an investment or as a home to live in.
The main difference is buying as an investment you are more aware of the market, when purchasing as a home you do not pay attention to the market as much since you are more committed for the long term.
A good example is to watch a movie titled The Big Short, it will give you a perspective of a home or a house.
I lived here 14 years, and the value of my home is about double, if I had bought this as an investment I would have not kept if 14 years and would been more a tuned year by year of the value.
The Village is different than most communities in what it offers which makes the ups and down of the housing market not compatible to the rest of the country. As long as there is a segment of the population interest in what The Villages is offering there will be more stability.
