My sister and I bought in the Villages , Duval,and closed on January 11, 2007. We came back in March and May to buy furniture, fans, and stock a complete household. We live in Hamburg, New York and are still working. We plan on retiring in August of 2008, God willing, and will probably be "Snow Birds" for a few years. I have heard about the vinyl siding problem with Duval homes, so I plan on having it inspected before the year is up. We are coming back for a week in October, then count the days to retirement. Any Duval residents having problems with the vinyl siding? Is the Village Property Management helping to fix these problems? I am curious. Janet and Carol
