The agents in The Villages are NOT Realtors. They cannot belong to the Natl. Assn. of Realtors because they do not belong to any Board of Realtors. They cannot subscribe to the MLS System and do not have to abide to the the Code of Ethics.

BUT....these lovely folks are not
unethical and can be trusted. We used Jim McLaughlin twice. We like him because we don't like someone HOUNDING us. He is a helpful friend and he assisted us with a new built home and building our second one. He and his wife are living in their fifth home in The Villages.
Most of us will say that the sales representatives from The Villages don't PUSH you, they help you. I have dealt with many Realtors over time that were very aggressive. I hate that.
