The street in Creekside Landing that they sold quickly was probably about 2 years old (?) and had been used for Lifestyle Previews, were all furnished like models (professionally decorated).

I think in general, if they were comparable to most other villas in regular villa neighborhoods, they sold for about $20-40,000 more than a typical new villa? Someone can correct me here, if they know for sure. I believe they are all vinyl, albeit a wider vinyl, and since they have different color exteriors, shutters, etc. they are not so cookie-cutter looking.

However, the plus seemed to be the location. The "cabanas" (what they called them in Buttonwood or the other village out that way whose name escapes me at this senior moment, took quite a while to sell out.
