My dad always told to to get a lot while I was young. I just didn’t realize he was talking about real estate.

We have enough golf here anyway...........and we actually need more variety for stores..........not many play golf everyday or enough to have more

Really?

I’m not sure this is accurate. The developer did get behind when they were trying to satisfy the demand for homes. I expect they will get back to their formula for the number of holes of golf per home.

It’s much easier now than in the past when we were looking. We are doing a new build with no issues, went pretty smooth. Wait time was 5 months for us.

The sales reps are not REALTORS. People use the term like it is a generic term. But they are called sales representatives. I agree a Buyer can only have one sales rep that you’re working with at a time.

Realtor® is Trademarked, "made up word". If you pay your dues to the National Association of Realtors, you get to use it.

Escalator, trampoline, & aspirin were once Trademarked and soon "Realtor" will go the same route and become a generic word.

In 2019 Lowlands was the last executive course opened. The next executive course will not open till 2024 at the earliest. In that 5 year time period approximately 20,000 homes will have been built.

If you draw an East to West line from Palmetto/Sweetgum to Volusia/Escambia, there is a huge void of executive courses (going south) till you get to those south of the Turnpike. That void will forever be present for those south of 44.

It is as many things are - it depends on your luck at the time. My agent said he caught the traffic lights perfectly to make it to his computer and we got our first choice the first time. There were eight others behind us. IMHO, pick an agent who takes it seriously. It can be the most luck you will have. Our designer was terrible and delayed our build which caused us to get the horrible first run of the new cabinets and all the millwork we had selected got substituted for pieced together and nicked crap. When you build, you will not have any real control in the finished home. And yes, after closing warranty will send subs and product manufacturers to your home for countless hours on your time and it still might not be as good as you expected. Good luck!

One can only have one VLS agent, however if there is a husband and wife, you kind of have 2

Plenty of golf coming very soon. Anyone looking to purchase a lot in the south will have lots to do once they are settled in. In fact, we have never had trouble getting a tee time. We moved down here three years ago from the northern end and have never regretted it for one second. The coming entertainment area is going to be amazing. Get in now before the property values skyrocket even more than they already have.

I have others the tell me I should use multiple agents all trying to reserve my lot(s) at the minute they are released to increase my odds of getting that I want. Does anyone know the correct and best way to accomplish this? Thanks in advance for your help and opinions.

Is there a price list for the different types and locations for lots? Golf Course, water etc?

Buying a lot in the Villages.

You can’t buy a lot for CYV. They are spec homes only. So what you see is what you get.

Lots that you chose to build a designer hits the market @ 0800 on the day they are released. Your agent will know 24 hours in advance as what lots are available. Only they can tell you what the cost will be
