In April we purchased an At Ease model in Tamarind Grove. It was used as a model home but was not furnished except for all appliances.
We're moving in at the end of June and couldn't be happier. They were just starting to sell the models in that neighborhood and had just reduced the price about $8,000 when we were there so we jumped on it. There is no negotiating on price but we were quite happy with the deal we got. There were some things we didn't realize until after we paid our deposit. We bought a 2 car plus golf cart garage home, but there were no garage door openers. (We hadn't paid for them and TV offered to install two 1/2 horsepower openers for $950. We passed on that offer and are using Ryan O'Cull to install the same ones for $500.) We're also having two solar attic fans and gutters installed the week we move in.
Most, if not all, of the homes on our street were also models . . . some furnished, some not.
