The lounge chair couldn't find work.
The dining table had to go on a diet.
The chair rail, railed.
The French Provincial chair needed a translator.

Anyone notice there are no open houses in Pine Ridge today? Could all the recently released new homes be sold already? Didn't they originally say that the new Fruitland Park area would be sold out by the end of 2015?

There are open houses today in LaBelle, Dunedin, Charlotte and Alden Bungalows, so don't think a holiday week-end has anything to do with it.

We live down the street in Labelle North. It is only ten minutes up Morse to LSL and twelve minutes to Brownwood going across Hillsborough....yes, LOCATION! LOCATION...we love it!

Colony Plaza is 3 minutes by car!

By car or by golf cart (not the colony comment, the LSL and Brownwood parts.)?

I drove by there a few days ago. It looks like it is a long, long way from anything. I was also thinking that if one were to buy there now, you'd be putting up with construction dust for the next six to twelve months.

I also find it odd that they are starting at the furthest point out and building inward. I would think that it would be easier to sell homes that are close to anything. I wouldn't want to live where there is mile of undeveloped dirt between myself and the next house.

A wise man will back himself out of a situation rather than box himself in. The new residents may not let the developer leave once they find out how long it's gonna take to get anywhere. [emoji33]
A wise buyer in this area will check a flood plain map, lots of low lying areas subject to flooding. Right now they are building in the hills, further to the west it gets a little wet.

I would hope the new residents would check distances and flood plain BEFORE they purchase if they are that wise man/woman.
