Once you are informed about the difference between the two, you'll be prepared to make a decision that fits your needs.
Good Luck and Welcome to The Villages. You'll love it here.
When I tried to do that, I found that most of the so called "agents" I asked either did not know the answer, or worse, they pretended they did and they got it totally wrong. You really need to do your own research online. Insurance agents are just salespeople. They do not represent the insurance company and they will not put anything in writing.
