Just purchased...But
 

Kinda corncerned, just purchased a new build in Orange Blossom and received our closing package from The Villages. It states that we are only allowed 1 dog, we were very clear and told our sales agent that we have 2 Dogs. We did not know that we are only allowed 1 Dog. Is this going to be a problem?

I don't know if you are getting the accurate information but you should have been given a copy of deed restrictions for the district you are in at time sale offer were done. I know of several people coming into the villages with two or more dogs. I'm only familiar with a rule you may only replace a specific number.

Just to cover yourself, call your agent and ask her why she let you purchase your home when she knew you had two dogs and the restrictions said only one.
Make a written note of the call (date, time and what she said).

Also, you should have been made aware of the restrictions and given a copy to look over before you ever signed a contract.
Obviously you weren't given a copy or even told beforehand.

Our agent knew we had three dogs and we never had a problem.
Good luck and don't worry about it; just be aware in the event something comes up.

FORGETABOUIT! Must have been a misprint. You will be just fine and you will love it here and so will Muffy & Biff...Woof.

Maybe she is one of us that believes in following the rules. Why would you encourage someone to not do so by telling them to forget about it?

We have 3 dogs, but one may not be with us by the end of the year. I asked the sales person about the number allowed. He stated they go by the county regulations. I read about Sumter County and the document stated any amount over six, needs a kennel license. LOL we are good. I think Lake and Marion were at a 2 limit. I am glad about limits.

"Obviously you weren't given a copy or even told beforehand."

Seriously? How do you come to that conclusion? They said they read in their closing package they were allowed only one dog.

Well said.

Ladydog........ Enjoy. Don't call your agent. All is well. This place is doggie friendly, but don't let them doo-doo without picking it up or someone will be upset and post on here.

I don't have a dog. I really love them. Don't worry and don't let anyone tell you different. YOU are gonna love it here.

One fish two fish!

Yes.

At one time I thought you were just another pretty face, Don.

I wish life was that easy to just say forgetaboutit. Somebody will complain, you know they will.

is that one dog poop or two dog poops ????????

Most people won't give one poop!

I believe the accepted rule is you can move in with what you have, but as they pass, you must abide by the deed restriction. Whether that is written or not, I have not seen any instance where it was a problem.
