Most pre-owned Villages homes do not stay on the market long.
If pre-owned homes stay on the market long here, it is because they are overpriced, smelly or have really out of date fixtures or are dirty. Homes sell quickly here. Very quickly here in The Villages.

We have friends who sold their house, themselves (FSBO) in less than a week recently. I will admit it showed beautifully both inside and out.

I agree! I sold my designer in five weeks and my girlfriend sold her courtyard villa in one day!

The Courtyard Villa we bought never even hit the market. We heard from some neighbors that they may be putting it on the market, because of illness in the family. We approached them and they said they were considering it. We looked at it, wrote an offer the next day and left with them - two weeks later they accepted our offer and we closed two weeks after that.

How about this title, "take care of your home, price it right and you can sell within two weeks".

Many people want to move to TV. Many will buy pre-owned homes. If you want your home to be one of the ones that somebody buys, you simply have to do the things that need to be done. Make it nice, and reasonably priced for what it is, and where it is.
Just "being in The Villages" by itself will not necessarily sell. There are literally hundreds of homes on the market every day. Nobody needs to jump on a house that is poorly presented, poorly maintained, or overpriced. |

Exactly. Price it right and your house will sell. Overpriced homes will sit.

I bought my home from the owner as he was putting the sign in the window. His ad didn't come out until the next day.

We were looking for a CYV, we picked 3 ranked them in the order as 1,2 and 3. In a matter of days they were all sold. We did however luckout with one of our choices the original buyers were unable to complete the deal so we purchased it in June. We got everything we wanted in the villa and in the location we wanted it in.

I was expecting Dad's house to sell quickly but not this quickly. House listed Monday first open house yesterday. House sold full price, cash sale by 7 p.m.. All the work I put in this last month paid off. At least I have a little breathing room to get rid of things and get Dad moved and settled.

Did I miss something here? The article clearly states, “pre-owned homes DO NOT stay on market long”. The respondent implies they do. Honestly, pay attention people.

They say that the price of a house should make the seller feel he got slightly too little and the buyer feel he/she slightly overpaid. Seems to me that having it on the market for a couple of weeks before it sells means that the price was right - and having it sell in a day means it was underpriced.
