Rumor About Morse Family Selling
 
I heard a rumor that the Morse family "sold The Villages" and are moving away. Is any part of that true?

Bill-n-Brillo 08-30-2011 08:42 PM

What's the source of the rumor? Any other info that came along with it?

Bill :)

angiefox10 08-30-2011 08:44 PM

Nothing in the news.

KARENNN 08-30-2011 09:09 PM

I heard it from a friend of someone who works in one of the business offices in The Villages that it happened about a month ago. The details were sketchy though, so I wanted to try to find out more.
Her job deals with the commercial businesses in TV, so maybe they just sold commercial property??

Carla B 08-30-2011 09:20 PM

Well, I hope they didn't sell our house and lot from under us!

KARENNN 08-30-2011 09:22 PM

:laugh: No, I don't think we need to worry about that

I wondered why "WARREN BUFFET" was seen going up to the Morse Family "secret" private relaxation station at Lake Sumter Landing. It is located above............:evil6:.must not reveal............:icon_wink:

tpop1 08-31-2011 06:58 AM

Its true
 
The Morses' did sell....to me.

Yes I bought The Villages!!!!:laugh:

We will be changing the name to "Tpop1 Land"

Watch here for changes that will be exciting to hear (for me; if not for you) ;)

Hang on the ride gets wild from here.

It's all true, Trump has brought a majority interest in the villages. Rumor has it that chain link fences will be placed around every lot, and pink Flamingoes in every front yard. Also a large section of the village will be converted into low income housing.

When the doughnut hole goes up for sale, you will know tv is done growing.

Pturner 08-31-2011 08:43 AM

You guys have it all wrong. It was Steve Jobs who bought TV. Didn't you see his retirement announcement, plus the articles about how he was going to re-invent... TV.

Sheesh, can't anybody around here put two and two together. :laugh:

P.S., just imagine how much easier it will be making tee time reservations once there's an app for that. What to buy or sell a TV home? See how crowded a restaurant is? Stream entertainment from the squares? Find a pickle ball partner? See which rec center has the next aerobics class? Open the gates with your phone? Apps for that!

Ok....i am the smart one....my answer is 4, but it does not include the bond.
Trump....not a chance...no hair stylists in TV would know how to get the hair right.

Jobs....absolutely....I am a wannabe and would look forward to living in an iVilla.

No one else has the courage to say it, but I will! A Mexican cartel has boughten TV and they're moving it lock, stock and barrel to Tijuana! Olé!

Could be!

Is Tijuana in Texas?

eweissenbach 08-31-2011 10:37 AM

Enough of this nonsense! I am the one buying The Villages. It is not a done deal as yet however, as I am waiting on a huge inheritance from a relative in Nigeria. The money should arrive any day now, as I have given the authorities my Social Security number, my bank card pin, and a check for $20,000 to take care of the transfer fees. When I get my money I will own you all! :evil6::evil6::evil6:

No private person owns real estate in the United States. We all just have a contract with the government to rent.. the rent is called real estate taxes. If you do not pay your rent, you get kicked out.

The Villager II 08-31-2011 11:08 AM

I hope they never let it go. I am happy with everything they have done in the settlement.:a040:

graciegirl 08-31-2011 11:34 AM

Did you hear the rumor that they were going to become Democrats?

no, no reduce the revenue and magically the programs will continue.

rubicon 08-31-2011 02:07 PM

I have it on good authority that the Morses leaked this false information because they felt under appreciated and ignored and wanted residents to recognize how much they (Morses) would be missed if they sold. :1rotfl:
