I was just looking at the "new" Pre-owned listings. The list prices do seem to be moving upward.

The fact that ads do not disclose the amount of the bond makes it very hard to do price comparisons. Particularly in the newer areas, the amount of the bond can be quite substantial.

On the other end of the spectrum. . .
On the other end of the spectrum, there is a one bedroom patio villa just north of 466, probably in foreclosure (REO/bank owned) for $90K. The house was listed in March, and the price has been reduced twice since then. From the photos it looks like it needs some work, but for those of you who are handy or know a handy person...

How much is the bond? Without that, the price is understated.

I've seen it....it is expanded and enclosed nicely on at least 2, possibly 3 sides. It's not your typical patio villa, on this nice corner lot close to Lake Sumter Landing.
And it is labeled "Pending". It's a great location. |

The sale is pending but that doesn't mean they got their asking price. It is indeed an expanded unit with a premium lot. It s also partially furnished and the bond is paid. I love patio villas, but I couldn't see paying $193,000 for a patio villa when there are so many other choices in the Villages for that kind of money.

If you really want to see sticker shock there is a new 1,778 sq ft courtyard villa, golf front with a pool in Gilchrist being offered at $440K.

It's expanded? What was it before? A closet?

Oh, never mind, it's none of my business and I shouldn't be curious. Sorry for the post.

This home is now $444K since The Villages is no longer giving any discounts. I went to see this home and it is really nice. Golf course view and pool plus a really nice layout. It's located in The Village of Gilchrist. Wish I could afford it but I am still really happy with my courtyard villa in Haciendas at Mission Hills.

A house sells for what someone is willing to pay for it. I've looked at some of the new open houses in recent days and I thought they were "overpriced" but obviously others didn't and were willing to pay the asking price. Developer does not negotiate on the price of a new home. Only in The Villages!
