Default Finally - after 147 showings

Finally a contract (after 147 showings in 21 months) on our Sarasota home that will close on March 15, 2010. Can you imagine the fun of getting your house ready 147 times to be shown? Not to mention the extra low price.
Now the fun....... we plan to rent for 6 months to a year. Have contacted the JD Management rentals, Villages Long Term rental office and "thevillages4rent.com". We have a Schnauzer and a Yorkie, (great dogs, no shedding, a bath once a week and totally housebroken) so that significantly narrows the options with those 3.
Anyone have suggestions for other sources of long term, pet friendly, unfurnished rentals priced around $1200 a month, starting March 1, 2010? Makes me a little nervous of becoming homeless in a few weeks, LOL. On the bright side, it almost seems surreal that the time has come that we can really live and enjoy all the wonderful things The Villages has to offer.
House is getting packed and the movers are ready.
