In a way, you have proven my point. If you are making more profit on pre-owned houses, then the buyers may have been better off buying a new house. But, in my opinion, most retired buyers are not interested in making a profit. They want to buy a hassle-free house where they can live and enjoy their retirement. A new house is a safer way to go, and The Villages has plenty of them.
