For the first time in 30 plus years, The Villages will have to front the money for the infrastructure when they commence building in Fruitland Park. There will be no bonds attached to these homes for them to use to get reimbursed.

It will be interesting to see if people will be willing to pay $500,000 plus for a designer home.
