50 Things to Think About Before Buying a Home in The Villages, by Parker Sykes

I went back and looked to see if folks already knew of this, but did not find any reference, so I figured I would share. Sorry if this is old news, it was not for me. I also have yet to read the whole thing, but seems to have many of the items hashed out on TOTV.

congratulations to whomever wrote the article on the 50 things. YOu did a wonderful job and gave lots to think about before purchasing!! You listed both pros and cons and I think it will be very useful for those considering purchases in the villages!! Job well done.

I agree...I read it yesterday and found it to be a very good run down of The Villages, both sides, IMO. Kudos to the author.

I looked him up on Sumterpa.

Moved here in 2008 the same as us.

If he reads this, I wish he would post and tell us if he is still happy. I hope so.

Thank you for posting this information. It was interesting and helpful.

When I saw this post I did not want to read it. But I knew I would have to so I am now about half way through the article and I read it with one eye kinda closed, you know when you know you are getting ready to open something or read something or get the bill for something you know is not going to be good, that kind of one eye closed.
So far it is mostly what I have expected and things I have asked and thought about. One area that I may not be up to yet or maybe not in the article is if one of the spouses is not as eager to move there as the other one is, but maybe that is just one of the spouses being in Phase 1 still and the other has moved to or started in Phase 2.
Good article though.

Thanks
