We would use outside realtors, villages realtor or for sale by owners, as we are not afraid of a by owner listing. By not allowing for sale signs in the yard that pretty much cuts out the FSBO's. I never thought a sign here or there was much of a distraction for the beauty of the Villages at all, especially seeing there are not many homes for sale at all there. Just my opinion of someone looking to buy.
They allow signs in windows for home sales by owners. You often have to go around by golf cart to see these. I also know some Villagers who post their homes for sale on Craigs List for the Ocala area.
