Age Requirements
 
Ok, another one for the experts. . .

I understand that a home must be occupied by someone 55+. Does that mean that I can not purchase before I am 55? Could I purchase before hand and then not move in until I am 55?

How strict are they on this requirement?

Thanks,

Tim

The requirement to qualify as an "age restricted community" is that at least 80% of homes must be occupied by someone 55 or older. My understanding is that far more than 80% of homes meet this requirement, and therefore persons under 55 are not excluded. No one under the age of 19 may reside in TV for more than 30 days per year, but otherwise, if you got the money honey, they got the homes.

So I could buy and move in before I'm 55?

Move on In
 
:) Yes, you can move in any time you'd like.

Question (probably a dumb one)....the under 19...30 days..am I correct in assuming that this means a particular individual..not various grandchildren visiting for a week each. (not that I'm anticipating this, just checking...heck, that's why I'm moving 1200 miles away) :p...just kidding

Trish,
It does mean one particular individual. Various grandchildren can visit for a week each-- and I hope they do and you enjoy them all!

anyone of any age (over 18) can be resale homes in the villages. Just cant have children living with them. No age restrictions on buying resales.

As an addition to your grandchildren question.......does anyone really count the number of days each grandchild visits???? If so, how do they manage to do that? Thank you in advance.

Also, we never knew that the resales could be purchased by anyone of any age. We did know about the 80% law. So a young couple in their twenties could buy a resale? A couple in their thirties and forties? But, what if they have children later? The baby gets evicted?????????

You better believe eviction will occur and it should and probably a few fines along the way. We moved here to get away from crying/screaming kids. I love the fact that the number of days kids can visit is limited to 30 per year.

Funny. How would they go about taking the baby away from the parents?
First of all, they probably should not allow people under the 55 to purchase if they are of child rearing age.........

I cannot believe TV has the "power" to evict a baby born to someone who bought a resale.

Does anyone know for sure??

Really....who counts the days of each grandchild's visit so that they know when the 30 days timeframe has expired. I'm serious. Thanks.......

The visitor must have a guest pass to use any facility (pool etc.), and they are issued in 30 day increments.
