I have seen a number of very attractive NEWER re-sales at remarkably affordable prices and with some or all of the bond paid to boot!
If and when you are ready, I believe you will find the home that's right for you.
The salesperson was planting a seed to motivate you.

I will agree with you on that about the agent's motivation about home prices going up 30% in the next 3 years. Just wondering my friend and I were discussing resale homes already showing up in the new villages south of
466A (Charlotte and Fernandina). What is The Villages' rule about re-selling new construction -- an owner can't sell within 1 year of closing, or an owner can sell within the first year but not for more than the price the owner paid The Villages for his or her home?
