Do you know a super star Villages Sales Rep?

[Hopeful2]

I'm trying to assist a friend who is looking to build a new home here. Can anyone recommend a super star Villages sales rep - who is on the pulse of things and will work very hard to get their clients what they want?
(I'm sorry to say that I can't recommend the sales rep we had.)

Beth Pope -- she knew what we wanted before we did.

Joann Ives is as food as they get. :-)

You will get responses from almost everyone who thinks theirs is the best, just like they think their village is the best.

We love Jim McLaughlin.

Angela Privett....She was an amazing help to me...It took a while for me to get through the entire process because I had a house to sell in another part of Florida first, etc. She encouraged me and helped me through the process from beginning to end...I could not have done it without her.....:gc::gc:

Rene Webster 352-446-9298. She worked with my brother on his home and on ours. She actually recommended a less expensive home that we were thinking of! See is non-agressive, knowledgeable and understanding!

[CaptJohn]

If you'll do a search on here you'll find dozens of recommendations. How to decide which will be the problem. :laugh:

[Hopeful2]

Do some reps work as a team? Wondering if a "team" is better than an individual rep.

We highly recommend Patricia Minnehan (352-430-8844). She is very responsive, knowledgeable, professional and on top of the job at hand. Unfortunately, We had your experience with our first sales rep. so we understand your feelings. We give Patricia a 10 plus!

Jason Kranz. 352-446-6001 Jason.Kranz@thevillages.com. Our design meeting was complete in a day and a half due to the preparation we were able to do with his guidance. Our designer stated that he assists and prepares all his clients and their design meetings always go smoothly.

[cmfjr]

Yes, LAURIE BRIGGS, 353-217-9066. She showed us several designer homes and as equally easy to work with when we changed to a CYV search! Showed several areas and even helped us located several Unser construction. We found one that had an exceptional yard, both in size that was facing east. She said she would contact once it was released so we returned to WI. she called to keep us updated and then we got the call @ 8 pm on a Sunday night. We talked and while on the phone see emailed us pictures of the tile, cabinets and the counter top! Within an hour we bought the property. We did the financing and closing without being there and she helped to make sure all was done correctly and efficiently. The day moved into the villa, there was a card welcoming us with a couple bottles of wine. Three years later we still keep in touch and visit when she has open houses that we have not seen before. We highly recommend Laurie!

We were very happy with Justin Wilson.

[Wayne Darnell]

Beth Pope was ours and she was the:swear: best

[DianeM]

I was very happy with my agent - Vinny Guarino. He was patient with me during the year it took me to decide to make the move to The Villages.

[indianavette]

Has anybody used "The Twins"?

[Bosoxfan]

Chris Hallmark has been ours for our 2 homes and we couldn't be happier

[villagerjack]

Brian Dees...the best

[eweissenbach]

A vote here for Tony Trussler. Good guy AND a professional.

[crummybuttons]

Beth Pope is the superstar.....She listened to everything on our wants and needs list and never once took us to anything more or less. She's amazing!

Justin Wilson

[geri317]

We had Priscilla Hart for two homes here in the Villages. No pressure, very kind, sensible, helpful.

[PeggyS8]

Jean Truax- she went above and beyond and back- she listened ... She understood- she was knowledgable- she was always a phone call away. She never pushed but was always ready with great suggestions.... I could go on and on... but you get the picture....

[Mamaderby]

Which ever one takes the initiative to answer your post! :pepper2:

Nanette Tolleson is great.

We are big fans of Phil McGuire. We know others who enjoyed working with Phil, as well.

[e-flyer]

Over 200 agents for the Villages, this is going to be a long thread, most folks seem to like the agent they used.

[ugotme]

My vote for Jason Kranz.

He took us around on our schedule - if and when we wanted. But, most of all HE LISTENED !!

After a short while he pretty much had it down to knowing what we wanted and what seemed more important to us. After we went back to our Vila my wife and I talked and made our decision.

LOOK OUT TV - Blame it on Jason !!!!

[Meddick]

I can strongly recommend Julia Powell. She spent a lot of time emailing with us before we arrived for our LSV to understand what we wanted. It paid off - the first spec house we looked at was spot on - it is the one we bought. She then took us around to look at others to 'calibrate' our decision.

The house was not quite finished and she periodically emailed us photos of the progress.

I guess the posts about everyone thinking there agent is the best are true, but I would use Julia again.

Trish Shelton - we really liked working with her.

[echo11]

Any thoughts or feedback on Jim Wallace? Anyone work with him as their Village salesperson?
Thanks!

[mulligan]

I've got to cast another vote for Julia Powell. We put her through the wringer, and found her to be the consummate professional.

Yes, our sakes rep is Lynn Peterson. In January when we were not even serious prospects, he took hours with us andcontinued answering qypuestions by phone and email. He gave us a wealth of "true ad honest" info on TV. He helped us cut cost wherever needed to meet budget. We are under construction now and he still stays in regular contact.
No pressure, knowledgeable, gives-a-darn, helpful .... All around great guy and saes rep! (Do:a040::a040::pepper2: you think we are pleased?)

[TheCollierCpl]

Hi, we have Lynn Peterson. Lynn.Peterson@thevillages.com. We cant say enough good things about him. Honest, knowledgeable, returns calls and emails, goes the extra mile, even has a photographer take pictures of our construction and sends them regularly. He has been very helpful in every respect.
Good luck!

[Rango]

We used Beth Pope. She was recommended by two of our friends bought a house from her. I have a friend who is using her now.

I have no way of knowing if she is the best or not, but she is excellent!!

[SusieDuck]

I would recommend Colleen Wothring. She was awesome and advised us on many items in regards to our purchase. I purchased in Fernandina and have NOT moved down permanently yet. However, Colleen made a point to contact us when we were down in July and actually took us to Tojays for Breakfast. She sold two homes to my friends and I have another couple coming in September to finalize their purchase. Her contact is colleen.wotring@thevillages.com

[chrisdowd]

Carolyn Stebbins was wonderful for us!

[bigallis1]

Judi DiPietro was our agent. 352-396-2609
Was really in tune to our wants and what we could afford.
Always answered our voice mails and texts, even on weekends and holidays and when she was on vacation.

[OCsun]

Another vote for Renee Webster! She listens is patient and looked out for what I wanted more then I did. Sounds crazy but true! 352-446-9298

[graciegirl]

I know a gentle, kind, laid back, one of good character and gentle humor and with the gray hair that earns him respect in my book. He is now living in his fifth home in The Villages and he and his wife Patti are very busy folks who we call friends.

Jim McLaughlin from New Hampshire was our Villages rep for both of our homes here.

Hi Hopeful2,
Did your friend find an agent and purchase a lot yet? If not, she will need to purchase a new (or pre-owned) home as undeveloped lots are no longer being sold in The Villages.

rene is one of the top heavy hitters...she does care about her clients but did seem over extended when we worked with her...and when there were problems we had to handled them on our own..just to busy with selling the next home

[hotpotato]

lynn peterson has helped us buy 3 properties during our stay here in the villages.
He was the first salesperson we met in 2001 and can highly recommend him..No pressure, good advice.

[kittygilchrist]

I probably already said Jim Minnelli, but just in case, Jim Minnelli.
patience of a saint.

Justin Wilson - 352 406-7256

[Finallyfree]

Absolutely, Ron Delk! In conversations with friends they can't believe how above and beyond he went for us. He helped us choose the perfect lot even though we were out of state, made suggestions for the huse that we would never have thought of; and in general made this the best building experience that we have had (and we have had several). We will never move here in the villages because we have everything we wanted, but if I knew someone coming down he is the first person I would have them contact. If looking at a pre owned, then Tom Hutchison would be my suggestion, he and Ron work in a similar fashion. Good luck. You can contact Ron at the villages sales office.

I'm so sorry you had a bad experience. Just to give my background. Since 1972, I have had 2 Brokers' real estate licenses. When I started looking for my own home, I had the worst sales rep. and asked for another I could work better with. I was fortunate to be given Angie Stokes. Since that 1st home, I have purchased 2 more homes through her. So after purchasing 3 homes from her, I'd have to say she's DEFINATELY EXCELLENT. Reach her at 352-408-0722. Tell her Alexandra recommend you.

[Barboza]

Cherry St Clare totally the best, still keeps in touch, nothing too much trouble, has finger on the pulse. Would not hesitate to use her services again.
Use Cherry & you will not be disappointed.
Look forward to being back in our home in the sun next month

Lynn Peterson. He is one of the best there is. Total service! However, there is no more building! All ecs from here on out.

[sharonga]

TOMMY I. worked with us for 6 years!!!!

[ssmith]

I am interested in the answers.

We actually have the best one now JACK SKELLY...he is the oldest and has been there the longest....he even would have let us customize our home back when Hadley was just being built and no other salesman would do that...we sat in several lots and he showed us what we could do and that he would work with us to customize...however....he is semi-retired now...takes no new customers and by the time we can get there may not be working at all...I don't know exactly how old he is but well past his 70'th b-day!!! sooo hopefully we can buy before he totally retires or I will have to decide on another Realtor!!!!

[jrandall]

Another vote for Lynn Peterson. He was terrific!

Norm Long is the best.....bought and sold with him.
