Cool A quick real estate question

To All in TV -

What is the market there like now? I was through a couple of years ago and it, like most of FL was overheated. Has TV's market died down a bit - are there a lot of houses on the market?

Tkret...I left...b/c....IDK...but it was a bad decision. I am freezing, sneezing, and throwing a temper tamtrum. My house will be on the market Thursday, and sold by Friday...I hope...b/c I have to get back to the bubble soon or I don't know what will become of me.
Evidently, the other Blondie left so I was able to slip out of the md and go straight to Blondie.

Default Whisper1........

Welcome to the forum, Whisper1 Since I'm currently in s/Oregon and not in TV I don't know first-hand about the r/e market there, but if you click on The Villages home page, you can look at all the new homes and resale homes for sale, and their prices. I believe there are many bargains out there at the current time.

Unfortunately, I'm out of the market and don't know when I'll be back in. I'm too stubborn to lose money - I bought my Oregon Dream home 3 years ago at the height of the real estate boom and here I am -- STUCK -- bad timing, didn't see it coming, yadda-yadda-yadda

So, I hang out at TOTV and pretend I'm there

Well, dropping the "md" part is a good sign that you'll be a Villager before too long. Sorry that you left before my arrival but it'll be nice to see you around New Year's.
Do you think Pat is behaving herself on the cruise..... I THINK NOT!

My new wife is also concerned about this place trying to be too social and match making So we'll just enjoy each other and mayve be helpful to a neighbor or two.

Default single wannabee will be down in January

Hi,

I want to see what TV is all about and I am coming down in January. So I would like to get together with some singles...for fun, company, and some dancing. I am just putting my toes in the water to see if I would like to spend some more time in Florida.

Do what I did and what most of our group has done: give us a heads-up prior to your arrival and we will meet you in Lake Sumter Landing. The first night I arrived, not knowing anyone, 10 great people met me and we spent a fabulous evening and 4 more days/evenings besides. We're waiting for YOU, now.

Thanks, I will do that. It will help me. I see you bought a place and like it. I am staying with the person you gave me a lead on through your computer site. I will be down a few days before her and I have never met her...she sounds nice. Can't wait to meet everyone.

I am a chompng at the bit single wanna be and can't wait till my house sells so I can move to the Villages. My house has been on the market three months which isn't really long in todays market. Have had alot of showings and one offer but the people really couldn't afford the house. I am lowering the price and hoping it will sell soon so I can come down and buy my dream Bonita in the Villages. Can't wait to meet all of you!!!!
