Since you are only an hour away from The Villages, I would suggest you take a few days (driving back and forth each day should not be a problem) and look at pre-owned homes first with a Villages Properties agent and then with a Multiple Listing Agent - since neither can show both properties.
Using both, you can see the best there is to offer. Pre-owned is the way to go. You can negotiate on price, no new construction going on around, no nickle and diming on upgrade options, much lower bond and mature landscaping.
