The mold on the pavers around their house could grow penicillin. Dead plants and overgrown bushes surround the house.
I know it has been addressed before but I couldn't find the threads. Where can I go within The Villages to get help in possibly improving this property value lowering situation? Thanks!

I would not depend on TV's help exclusively.
If the property is in Sumter County you can file an official, written complaint with the County. They will investigate and will take (legal) action if warranted. Be sure identify health and safety concerns as a result of the conditions.
Don't know about other counties but I suspect they also have codes regarding your valid complaints.
Often these situations require tougher remedies. Make the consequences for the owner more unpleasant than the lack of maintenance.
Hope it gets resolved soon.
