Just for curiosity, I went on the HPM web site, typed in furnished rentals for 11/1/2018 to 11/8/2018, and 82 rentals are listed as available located all over The Villages.

So if HPM is owned by the developer, then the developer is also profiting from the short term rental market in The Villages. That is probably not new news to most of you.

I am not sure who owns HPM, regardless, there is no deed restriction on short term rentals, just on rentals of any length to people who are sharing space in the home with the homeowner.

There is very little in The Villages that the developer doesn't profit from. They either own, or have a stake in many, many business in TV. If the developer can profit from short term rentals, why shouldn't the residents?
