Thats my opinion, most residents won't admit because they are more or less stuck here, so naturally they will come up with the good, like no snow, well then no skiing either.

Lyle Gant has sales statistics on his website.

It doesn't say how long sales have been slow, but shouldn't sales be higher in January and February when more people are visiting? This doesn't bode well for the Fruitland Park section, where bare-bones designers are supposed to start at $500,000.

Yes, it's 466A! The highway is Lake County responsibility and the bridge Sumter County. Neither have anything to do with sales In TV IMHO.

I find the discussion regarding sales interesting but not unusual. As a development enters deeper into the final phase it's only natural for sales to slow a bit over time. By anybody's imagination, sales are still very very good. The marketing strategy of selling TV is exceeded by no one. :thumbup:

I'll agree only as far as you may be able to get a bigger house for the money but not even half the HOME you get here! :D

Bogey, First I didn't say I made a mistake, I said you can get a house nearby for halve
the price you would pay for in the villages, As far as the advantages you have the same advantages as a resident except golf and the centers,

I'm not knocking the villages just saying the truth and not making it out better than what it is. Lijke I said anything neg. about the villages the same answers , well I don't have to shovel snow, no kidding, you can't ski either. It's a nice place here but being honest there is a lot of problems here, with driving and the attitude of some people.

Beechie--- you couldn't agree on what, is your nose out of joint , because I mentioned
you can get twice the home for price wise as you would in the villages.

It doesn't bother I chose to live where I want.

so I'll say it again.

You can get twice the house nearby than you will get in the villages.

But I still like it here,I like it here, I like it here

has nothing to do witj prices elsewhere
