Do YOU own or rent or wish you lived here?
 

Rubicon just posed an interesting question on the Village Hosp thread.

We own here. Second home. Now full time.

We own,...live here full time, and I can't think of any place I'd rather live!:MOJE_whot:

CONGRATS

We own (since July)

We live here (since January)

We love it...forever!

We were standing in line at the mobile post office this afternoon outside of SweetBay talking with others also in line. Everyone just loves living here in TV. One women asked if I ever heard about The Pearly Gates...it went something like this (I hope I don't mess it up),

A couple from the Villages dies and they both go up to Heaven.

St. Peter meets them at the Pearly Gates and asks, "And where are you two from?".

The couple replies, "The Villages!".

St. Peter shrugs and says, "You're not going to like it here".

We Own as of Dec.2011 and can't wait to live there full time

LOL....that's cute!

We purchased a home in 2006 and live here fulltime. The best feature of The Villages are its residents. There has only been two, perhaps three people, during that time I have met and cared not to be around...but then I haven't met buggyone in person yet:1rotfl:

We own since 17 January 2012
Will visit in July 2012
Will live there from December 2012 until....

We've owned since early 2009.

This is our only home. We travel extensively in our motor home for four or five months during the Summer and early Fall, but we consider ourselves full-time Villagers. Life is GOOD - without a doubt, we have the best of all worlds.

We own, we live here full time, we love it !

Own
 

Own since Sept 2010. :a040:

Picked out lot in June 2010, built and closed 09/02/2010. :coolsmiley:

Soon as our house in Atlanta sells, we will be full-time FROGS and can't wait. Housing market here in Atlanta STINKS. I can't give this house away and we are trying. :ohdear:

One day at a time....
 

Own.

Today a snowflake.

Who knows what tomorrow may bring?

Snowbird???? Frog????

Wish!!!

Yes to all 3- We own, we rent it out, and we desperately wish we lived there. Counting the time down til we can move in and not rent it out. Until then we can enjoy what everyone else is saying about how great it is and look at the pictures until they are 'dog'eared from our lifestyle visit.

We feel blessed to own here in The Villages and also in Massachusetts. Our plan is to split our time between both places and to always appreciate what we have. As long as I never have to shovel snow again, I'm a happy man.

...

I am not a resident.
I am interested. LSV scheduled in April.
Plan a hotel stay during peak season as I am concerned with congestion.

We came, we saw, we bought, we moved. In our CYV neighborhood we have a combination of full-timers, snowbirds, snowflakes and renters. It has turned out to be the wonderful and eclectic neighborhood that I had hoped to find.

Own

We rent and Thankful for our wonderful friends have a beautiful place! Love it here and hope to get out and about to meet people...Special Thanks to Patty and John for giving us a chance to live the dream..

Snowflake or snowbird
 

We came for lsv in oct 2011 bought in a week went back to CT then back down in Dec will be here until May. Does that make us a flake or a bird? We also are trying to decide about becoming frogs. So much to be grateful for. :a040::a040:

We feel blessed to own here in The Villages (2007), and also to spend summers at our Lake cottage in Canada. Each Fall when we return to The Bubble, we feel a renewed sense of gratitude for the wonderful friends we've made, and we marvel at the beautiful community.

Since you're staying for the winter, that makes you a 'bird.

I am a flake! :ohdear: Heh-heh!

Bill :)

I rent but for the full 12 months. Haven't decided whether I will buy or continue to rent for 2013. It partially depends on if what I want and can afford to buy is on the market come August or Sept of this year. BUT I do know I am definitely a FROG. I'm not moving out of "the Bubble" except in a box.

We started as renters (2009) from Canada,
 

and 3 days later, we decided to buy the CYV we had rented when we were told that it was for sale. It has been one of life's blessing for us to be able to spend Spring and Fall in TV when the weather is sooooo glorious, the people are so friendly and the shopping is so plentiful and varied. If "you" would let us stay longer, we would love to spend winter here too, but for now I don't want to give up Sept. or May weather. And Christmas with the grandkids is always something we look forward to. So snowflaking works for us for now, and TOTV makes it easier to stay in the loop.

We visited in January '12, came back last week and purchased a lot. We'll come back in March to the Design Center and get started building.

We will spend 8-9 months here and 3-4 months back to our other home in Harbor Springs, MI during the summer. We have done this for the seven years we have lived in Orlando so have never experienced a summer in FL.

We have been back in Orlando since Monday and find we are missing The Villages already.

We are renters now, possibly looking to purchase in about one and a half years but not sure, depending on finances.

Bought in 2006 and snowflaked for 2 years. Frogs since 2008. Never regretted a moment of it!

Still wishing and praying. :pray:
