My house in Englewood, FL has been up for sale since JULY 2010. Finally left my ex there to get it sold and was able to get myself a little patio villa in TV for a steal and with a little help from my big bro. You betcha, we're all taking a beating in this market but you can get yourself a good deal here and it all evens out in the end. Good luck to you!

Hey 2BNTV! Congratulations! Have you been able to find work in The Villages or are you happily retiring? I've been looking for a job here since April and so far no luck. I am SO SKILLED it's frightening! Where are the jobs???? Good luck in your new home.

I "planted" St. Joseph and my house sold in two months and I now live in TV in Buttonwood.

Still a working wannabee in CT that is waiting for my condo to sell. If I had moved four years ago when the market was still good, I would have needed a job with medical benefits.

IMHO - Unfortunately, there are not many jobs available to skilled people unless you are in the health industry. You may have to consider using transferrable skills to find something. Of course, the pay scale will be reduced.

I'm not good at posting links but I believe there is a "Careers in The Villages" icon on www.thevillages.com web site. There is a Human Resources Department on Main St. by Spanish Springs that is an option.

Good Luck with your job search.

Ex's can seem to have lousy timing and mess with all our good feelings. Good luck with the sale of your house. I'm still in the sorting through 38 years of marriage and 28 of it in this house stuff. Working to get 2500 sq foot of stuff down to fit into a 1500 sq ft house! Not easy emotionally or physically, but I am getting there. I have made a vow to myself....if I ever make it to TV...I WILL NOT save things I am not actively using! I also WILL NOT purchase anything becasue it is on sale and I might need it. Better to pay full price when I need it then pay sale price only to never need it.
