Does anyone know how many sales people TV has on their staff?

Quick Story ~ The night before we where going to take a 800 miles trip up north to visit family I discovered my car needed to have a serpentine belt replaced & other minor repairs. I contacted Julia Powell Fleming our real estate agent with The Villages Real Estate. She was at a Justin Timberlake Concert in Orlando. She contacted me and set up a repair for us in the morning so we could leave on our trip. She did a great job finding us our new home and has continued to assist us after the closing. She is competent, honest, reliable and we consider her a friend. If you are thinking of buying or selling a home in The Villages I would give her a call.

Jim McLaughlin was our rep both times, but we did the leg work. He is a nice, ethical man and a grown up villager.


He and Patti are great ambassadors for The Villages.

I would highly recommend Crystal Adams and her husband, Glenn Adams. Crystal specializes is new-build homes and her husband specializes in pre-owns in TV. What a great team they are!

And to answer a previously asked question....yes, you certainly can request an agent you would like.

We used Jason Kranz. Treats you like family !!!

Most Villages real estate salespeople are good, as you can see by the above recommendations. I am a former realtor and I would higHly recommend Tony Trussler. Tony is low-key but very thorough and delight to deal with. If you want to explore MLS listings for pre-owned homes I would highly recommend Lyle Gant. Lyle is a TOTV poster and a great guy and has a terrific website. I would love to see one of these gentlemen rewarded for the many hours they have spent with, and for us, with ,as yet, no results. (Through no fault. Of theirs)

Our realtor was Kathy Actis. I would highly recommend her. She did everything that she could to make sure that we got the house that we wanted in 2008. And I still get a birthday card from her every year.

We will use Debra when the time comes to leave NY.

We have used Debra Parks for both selling and purchasing. As a former realtor, I can vouch for the fact that she is a true professional.

About 250. They are not technically on staff. They are independent contractors.

Nanette Tolleson was our sales representative. No pressure whatsoever. She spent considerable time with us on several trips to TV. She always gave us thoughtful advise.

Chris Hallmark was phenomenal! He made all of our dreams come true. We gave him a laundry list of things we were looking for and he found the ideal spot for us. He's a no pressure rep and listens to ALL of your needs and believe me we challenged him. Thank you, thank you, thank you Chris!

Priscilla Hart was our sales rep, really great!!

[rosygail]

Sara Godleski found us exactly what we wanted....before we even knew what we wanted!

.....this thread originated in 2009 so some of the reps may not be the same.

Our Rep Jack Skelly ( the best) no longer takes new clients. We have had him several years and he was the only one who would customize your home back in the hey days of Hadley, Duvall when they mostly sold ready built homes. Of course now no longer customized available.
