We came down on Sept 2009, drank gallons of Kool-aid, ( very delicious ), and bought a lot (Saint Charles, Foggy Brook Loop) and speced out a Lily. Came back in August 2010 (drank several more gallons of Kool-aid, still very delicious) and fell madly in love with a Holly. Made the 20% downpayment and our Holly in under construction as we speak. The pad has been poured and the block work will probably be done this week. What we love the most about The Villages are the people who live there, such as our thoughtful neighbors, three doors down, Walt and Janet, who are feeding us pictures of the house construction as it becomes our new home.
Can you take more good news? Are you sure? Well here it comes. Our house has been on the market 210 days here in Kentucky after 15 showings, and we have our first offer. The lady loves our house and it looks very hopeful. Stay tuned. Hopefully we have this beautiful home in Kentucky sold.
I only have a downpayment in paradise, so I guess we are only tadpoles, but we hope to be official frogs on Oct. 8th when we close.
God bless to all TVers. Age wrinkles the skin. Inactivity wrinkles the soul. STAY ACTIVE.
