We bought our 1st Villages home in 2003 and still had to work for 2 years in NY. We put the home in The Villages unfurnished rental program, not expecting much. It ended up being rented for 20 out of the 24 months. ( once for 8 mths, once for 6, and a few month by month) At that time they didn't have many unfurnished homes in the program, so we did great. At the time, the homes were placed on a rotational list. When a person needed an unfurnished home, whoever was next on the list got it. Our was a ranch home. I would think their estimate is pretty accurate because they know how many homes are now in the progam and what the demand is. Many people need an unfurnished while their new home is being built Good luck.
