I stayed in the Villages last summer for a week on one of there specials. Absolutely loved it.

Looking to rent this July for a month and while there, will be looking at houses.
I would appreciate any do's and don'ts or recommendations. I am 62 and my wife is 58.
I am retired, she has another 4 years of work before retiring.

I couldn't move there full time till then; but I intend to go down about 4 months a year, a month to 6 weeks at a clip

Would like info on houses - frame vs cement pros and cons
Info on keeping up the lawn while I m not here.
Are there any hidden costs besides mortage taxes insurance?
Any info would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
