My husband and I have a deposit on a lot in the Village of St. James. We may be in a position to build sooner than later and have plane tickets to fly to Florida Sept 15 - Oct 1. We have rented a home in TV and thought we would be able to take advantage of the 4% discount being offered for building north of 466a. It was our understanding if you were one of the first 200 people ready to make a commitment to build and commit to meet with the design team by September 30th, you would qualify for a 4% discount. WRONG!!!
Our sales representative just informed me that we can't get an appointment with the Design Team during our two week stay the end of September, since the are booked. This is very disappointing to us, because everything we have read and understood, was that the process of building a house in the Villages was easy and fun. Suddenly, the Friendliest Town is not feeling very friendly to me. My DH said that we will just keep our plans and if things are meant to be they will work out. If not, we will just wait and build in April of next year.
It is just very disappointing to me, but I guess the Villages is a business first and the Friendliest Town second.

Welcome to St James. Our designer hs in St James is almost done. We close in early sept. We have heard of the design team but never had an appointment or met with anyone on the "design team". I think they were to busy. We went many times through many many models picking out everything from siding, roofing,floors, counters etc etc with only our sales rep and other times with(well that is another subject but with no design team). Assuming prior to booking flights and renting a hs for two weeks you were told you could be one of the 200,
then the next step is simple.... Your sales rep does the same thing as ours did for us. IF not I suggest you get another rep pronto. Ours was awesome
