[QUOTE=tekcormn;925342]Where/how can I get a liast of all properties in or near The Villages with the BOND paid or NO BOND and no CDD's ?

I am in MN and want to retire there.

Also need to rent a place somewhere reasonable until I find what I want with a flexible lease - not a one year lease. Apartment, Townhome or house, whatever I can find and afford.

Need a place near the end of this year.[/QUOTE
Do not limit your home search to bond free homes.
If you are buying new you will have a bond.Add the bond to the selling price to get the true price.Preowned may or may not have a bond.If you are looking at a home with a bond just add the bond to the selling price to get the true price.
I would not rule out a preowned just because it has a bond.Compare the true price of a home with a bond with the selling price of a bond free home.
The few real estate agents I talked to claim that paying off the bond does not increase the selling price enough to justify paying off the bond.Don't forget you can offer less than the asking price on a preowned.
First decide on the home style you want,manufactured,patio,courtyard,ranch/cottage,designer,premier
Next ,Location,location,location.All locations in TV are great.You decide the location best for you.Pick a location that is near the activities you will be doing.
