I have found the homes in The Villages to be of good quality, and The Villages Warranty Department usually strives to keep their customers happy.

I do not work for The Villages in any way, but I inspect homes in The Villages daily. I also do many one year warranty inspections, and usually find 6-12 or more issues that need to be corrected. Many items are minor, but on occasion I do find issues that are serious, that if left as found could have serious and costly consequences.

A good inspection usually takes at least 3 hours or more, and the attic and roof need to be inspected up close. That means going into the attic and walking on the roof. Many folks just do not know what to look for.

Simply stated, The Villages homes are generally very good quality builds. They do go up fast, and every sub-contractor cannot be watched all day, every day. Sometimes things do get missed or done incorrectly. That is why in my opinion it is wise to have a GOOD warranty inspection done, as it is the last time an issue can be fixed without opening your wallet.

Hope that helps!

Respectfully, Frank D'Angelo, ACI
