several years ago at a Sumter County tax seminar it was mentioned that property in TV would sell for $100,000 per acre....nearby TV $50,000 per acre.

As TV continues to expand the value of the nearby property/farm owners continues to go up and when the price is right there is a sale.

Remember the horse farm/barn/ riding complex on Rainey Trail...route 472....where the village of Bridgeport at Lake Miona SHores is located.

$18,000,000 later no more horse complex, hello TV expansion, good bye wealthy horse farmer.

This scenario will continue to repeat itself until ..........

And this is a good thing as long as TV developers keep the same ratio of amenities to residents as it is today.....and doesn't start to cut back amenities for additional housing sales.
