Default Re: 58 Villages?

We came down two years ago and never left!!! We bought as they were building our place and moved in one month later!!!

First thing you need to decide is how many bedrooms/baths you REALLY need.
Next, do you have a dog that is used to a yard of their own?
Do you want brand new or pre-owned and make a list of pro and con on both.
Only previously owned are available in the villages north of 466 and there are only
new ones in the newest villages.
Decide how much you want to spend and stick to it!!!!
We only looked at Tall Trees because of its' location.
We only looked at courtyard villas as they are the ONLY homes allowed to have full fences.
We wanted two bedrooms/baths only.
Wanted a FULL yard for our dog.

So, we purchased a villa on a corner lot in Cherry Vale Villas.

I will warn you.....when you buy, and you WILL buy, don't plan to bring all your furniture with you. If I had it to do over again, I would bring only those pieces that I absolutely LOVED and HAD to have. Furnishing a place here is totally different than what we did up North.

I wish you the best of luck. Hope you fall in love with TV as much as we did. We got settled in; sold our RV an determined never to travel from here as it has everything we want!!! Of course, family does come to see us, particularly in the Winter.

We are full time residents or FROGS. We are here until we croak!!!
