I am pretty sure that The Villages pays for all advertisements for homes for The Villages. Maybe the reps pay for the other ads that kind of promote themselves. I don't know....


Jim says there is no incentive to push either. He and his wife Patti are their own best customers. I ran into them a couple of weeks ago in front of the sales center in Brownwood. They just closed on their sixth home. (All of them homes, not investment properties.) I bet they haven't been able to find all of their Christmas tree decorations for YEARS with all of that moving from one house to another..

Jim did NOT sell the house we moved from. We did. Easy Peasy.
FYI: someone edited out a question on your original post.
