I have sold a home with The Villages.
We used Debra Park, a professional and awesome Sales Rep.
When I wanted to reduce our price, she wouldn't let me.
She assured me it would sell within a month at the listed price, and it did.
VLS definitely doesn't require a year's listing contract.

Bonanza, I beg to disagree.
There are two real estate systems in The Villages, MLS and VLS (Villages Listing System).
VLS has the advantage of an onsite sales office, trolley tours, open houses advertised daily in the Daily Sun, etc.
It's my understanding that VLS sells MORE listings than all of the companies on MLS combined.
