No regrets for me, however we originally were completely set on buying a specific home in a different Village. If we had bought that home, I feel like we would have had some regrets.

Pay very close attention on the distance between the home you buy and the amenities that are important to you. The home that we almost bought was very far from the closest adult pool. We go to the adult pool in our village almost everyday when it's nice outside.

Also pay attention to negative things that could affect your enjoyment like being close to a larger body of water which can mean big mosquito issues, or close to a big or noisy roadway. I have some acquaintances that back onto a very busy golf cart path that leads to Brownwood. They hear golf carts buzzing by their lanai around every 30-60 seconds between 7am-9pm everyday.
