We Did It !!
 

We put a contract on a new furnished patio villa in the Sawgrass Villas section in the Village of St James on Groundhog Day (2-2-12). We close on 2-22-12 and are very excited. This was our third visit over the past three years and we couldn't go back to Maryland without making a purchase. We will be seasonal residents for now. We have made great use of this forum to educate ourselves and have found it to be an invaluable resource. It almost seems like we know many of the frequent posters. I would like to thank all the posters for their frank and honest comments about life in The Villages.

Well, now you can begin to advise other newbies! :a040:

So glad you've made the plunge.

Radioman -

Congrats on the villa. My wife and I moved full time to The Villages from Silver Spring (Colesville Rd & New Hampshire Ave) about 2 1/2 years ago. You will not regret one day of your decision.

Congratulations... the best is yet to come!

:wave: Radioman,

Congratulations and welcome! You are in for the time of your life.

:a040::beer3::a040:

Happy New Home! :)

Congrats- and with a furnished home all you'll have to do is pack up your clothes and come on down ready to have fun! Welcome.

Congrats fellow St James resident. Hope it's not long before you will be frogs.

Well now, aren't you just the cat's pajamas!!

Good for you. I hope you enjoy every day of a thousand years here with us.

Remember what St. Peter said.

Hooray
 

I'm hoping to be right behind you in the line to build. It's an amazing place, isn't it?

Congrats Radioman,

My husband and I closed August 11. We also live at St James. We are part timer from Burtonsville MD.

Hope to meet soon. Next trip in March. Can't wait!!

Radioman, Congratulations on your purchase in the Village of St. James. May your days in The Villages all be great ones! :wave:

Welcome to The Villages and congratulations on your purchase. This forum proved to be a valuable tool for us long before our purchase and, because of its members, it continues to be a great source of information.

We closed and moved in Wednesday. Even though the patio villa was furnished, we have been running all over getting necessities. It has been fun, but we have hit the sack early after busy days. Again, this forum has been invaluable to us in every decision we have made.

Hit the road running, ended up hitting the bed early!
 

I have to agree about hitting the sack early after running around. When we were there a few weeks ago, and after meeting with the designers on the house (which was exhausting but fun) we had about 1 1/2 days to hit the furniture stores. At about 4 o'clock, we were so tired. Couldn't wait until bedtime. It takes a lot out of you. We realized we weren't 30 anymore. Enjoy your new home!

See You in March
 

Its SOLD the closing is Wed. We will be frogs soon and you will see activity in our Alhambra Home
