We are new owners but not FT until 2022. This is something we learned when starting to think about getting our own golf cart:
1) The Villages Golf Cart stores are so busy with service requests that they were no longer servicing golf carts that were not purchased at their stores. They simply decided that they needed to take care of their own customers first. I have to agree with them. That convinced us that we will buy from them. 2) If you buy a very good pre-owned and certified golf cart, it will be cheaper but it also comes with only a three year warranty. If you buy new, it may be as much as 2-5k more but you will get brand new, you can order it just as you want and it comes with a five year warranty. That convinced us that we will budget and buy new. 3) If you buy new, it takes about a month to order the cart and have it ready. They will give you a free loaner during that time.

I am a native Floridian, been drinking the water since 1948, still alive.
The expensive palm trees are not natural Florida, look around Fenney recreation center and Fenney Spring, to see natural Florida. Get the lawn service the majority of your neighbors have and you won't hear lawn mowers every day of the week. |

Don’t run out a by all new furniture. Your first selection may not be the best. Our first sofa and matching chairs is now relocated to the Lani. The new set fits main living room space much better.

You already know the answer to this. There are no known electric lawn tools that can handle commercial lawn service without having a fresh battery for every one or two houses serviced.

We are still looking for a good real estate agent. We need both an MLS and a Village rep. Any recommendations?

You are so right and I would be redoing and throwing out right away. Most people whose homes I have visited are very proud of their homes and each is welcoming in it's own way. Most people want their OWN stamp on their homes.

Plants
Remember, the same plants you loved up north probably do not do well here, look for Florida zoned plants.
