I read somewhere that you were assigned a design person to help with selections, but the realtor has made no mention of that. We have a list of upgrades that we would like to get prices for. Does anyone know if your realtor can give you amounts on those upgrades? We have built 10 homes and always worked with a designer for selections, not the realtor. I realize I will be limited on choice but I am unsure on how this will work. Can anyone who has recently been thru the process shed some light.

We are building a cottage home (Seabreeze) and our Villages rep. told us the following;
* select the design that will fit on your lot with or without golf cart garage
* select cabinets, countertops, flooring, ouside exterior color, appliances, window treatments, ceiling fans, etc.
All options are computerized so you can select/deselect and the price will be altered accordingly. You can visit model centers to see all the selections in person. Each home design has a base price plus the lot which may have a premium added. Our lot did not have a premium such as corner, back-up to designer homes, cul-de-sac or golf course view. You have 12 months to decide to build on your lot, move to another lot or select another style home. Monies will be applied to all except pre-owned porperities. Hope this helps.
