Thank you, Dr WOB, jr., that is a good idea. It is also nice to see that there are Beatlemaniacs in TV!

COCOMO, we went through the exact same reasoning process as you are now several months ago. ( your post sounded like you were talking with us!). We did buy on the "historic" side, on a golf course, and we absolutely love it! There were already three additional structures on our home, and though it's a bit dated in decor, it's spacious and comfortable and in excellent condition! I love having mature landscaping, and neighbors on both sides who are original owners and live here full time. Everyone is so friendly, it's so easy to meet nice people here. We love every part of TV that we have seen, but this part just felt comfortable and homey to us. There are some really nice places up for sale right now. Good luck to you, and hope to see you here soon!

Maybe because Zillow does not record property deeds nor even send the paperwork for filing to the County? That is done by the folks who conduct the property closing. And it is then up to the County office to "record" the sale and update their records.

I dont know wher Zillow pulls from - but - my guess would be from when/where the realtor who held the property for sale pulls it from the Multiple Listing Service where it was advertised; so as to make room for a new property to be listed for sale.

Properties of The Villages doesn't belong to MLS. Even if they did, I don't know that MLS has the exact selling price.

I don't believe the 20 land parcel was offered thru the villages sales group.

Do you have another idea that answers the questions "...why isn't the information shown on Zillow found anywhere on Lake County's website? What is the source that Zillow is pulling from and why can't we access it??

The villages realtor website "properties of the Villages" does not belong to any Board of Realtors which operate the MLS. Thus homes on there site would show only in there concept VLS that as far as my knowledge is not public. .

The MLS "Multiple Listing Service" will show any "paid member of there particular countys "board of realtors" all the information as soon as the listing agent enters the information into the MLS. How soon that information becomes public knowledge, I'm not exactly sure.

Zillow and Trulia must have some sort of agreement with the Boards to access there information..

BUT.....did "it" really sell? Did "it" sell to TheVillages,inc???? Who cares WHO sold it? Who bought it, IF "it" was sold????? Who owned it before it was sold IF it was sold.

When I close a house, All the paper work, and if you have any been a buyer you know how much there is gets brought to my office for the office staff to handle.

The county gets the owner information in a timely manor, BUT not faster than I can go into the MLS and change the statis of my listing.

440 Tarrson is in the city of Lady Lake so the building permit will be issued by the City of Lady Lake not Lake County. Permits for Lady Lake can not be viewed on the internet. The city has issued a permit to remove the existing structure but no permit has been issued for a new structure as of 7/8//14.

I live not far from 440 Tarrson and I ride by there quite often on my bicycle. Yesterday that home was pretty much completely gone and they were just finishing up the debris removal.

If you can't see building permits online for Lady Lake, how did you know a permit had been issued to tear it down?

Although we have never lived in a mobile/trailer/modular before, my husband and I were considering purchasing in the "historic" section. Although, I must admit it does makes me giggle every time I think of a 80's era mobile/trailer/modular as "historic" :1rotfl:

Our reasoning was that we could upgrade the unit to our taste and have, what seems to me, a nicer lot with the opportunity for a water or golf course view. Even after the rehab, we will be spending considerably less than the "newer" sections. many of which also need some updating.

It is not that we cannot afford a new(er) home, it is just value for the dollar. I would like us to be able to retire sooner than later as some health problems have popped up...

I would appreciate some honest opinions from others on the forum if there is a flaw in our thought process. Some comments on this forum made this section seem, well, less than desirable. I believed myself to be comfortable with the thought of living on the historic side, but, now I will be honest, I do not want to find ourselves a social pariah because of our neighborhood choice.

COCOMO, I am only a TV wannabee (hopefully someday a TV resident). I have been renting a manufactured home in the Village of Silver Lake since Saturday. The house has been fully upgraded, and it is adorable. I would buy this house in a minute. In fact the reason I rented on the Historical Side this time was to see how I liked living in this area, and I really like living here, especially the mature landscaping. This is my sixth time renting in The Villages, and I have liked all areas I have rented in The Villages. Just my two cents.
