We moved into our new CYV in Tamarind Grove in July 2011, the entire villa community sold out in about 4 months and we were one of the last to move in. The home next door was sold the same time but we didn't meet the neighbors until about three months later. They were both 7 years from retirement and we would see them every three months when they traveled down from Connecticut. They bought a 2 BR Marathon model that was furnished, it was a display model.

When they came they always did some improvement. Last time was a $10,000 landscaping job from Mansfield. Another time it was to get glass in their front door, another was to buy a golf cart and a TV. Last week they came and decided a 2 BR wasn't big enough. They listed their home for sale with the Villages RE and bought a new CYV 3 BR Arlington in Sanibel. Before they left they had a buyer and sold their old home. So in one week they bought and sold a CYV.
