In 2005 I closed on a Stucco Villa in Poinciana the closing cost were $9,229. I have the paper work in front of me.

My wife and her sister close on Monday 4/19/10 on a Patio Villa in Mangorve Villas in Pennecamp next to the premier homes and surrounded by executive golf courses and Cane Garden Championship great location. Thier total closing cost is $777.82 they are paying $54.00 Amenities fee from 4/19/10 to 5/01/10 Assessments 4/19/10 to 10/01/10, Fire assement $114.75 for a total of $777.82 I have the paper work in front of me.

As you can see the market is different today than it was in 2005.

We looked at both new and used. The 2/2 Patio Villas in Mangorve Villas start at $129,000 I just looked at The Villages websit and the least expensive Patio Villa South of 466 is listed for $139,900 and it is around 4 years old. You could sure upgrade and landscape a Patio Villa and go crazy on $11,000 dollars difference and have a new one. Just our thoughts.
