We got a great deal in Labelle that easily offset the additions. ..and are delighted with the updated baths, kitchen, among other things. We bought all our 2 1/2" blinds for $1200 online...best quality. Ours came with under counter lights, roll out shelves, nice flooring. We put in attic stIrs and the attic already had plywood flooring. We're very happy with a new home.

Remember that there is a huge difference between a sinkhole and a catastrophic ground collapse. The catastrophic ground collapse is covered in all policies - the sinkhole is a very gradual sinking of the ground over a period of time. Check with an insurance company for all their conditions of both. |

My suggestion is to wait a little while (except for mandatory things like privacy curtains and ceiling fans) before doing landscape, enclosing porches, etc. Live in the house. Figure out what you like and miss first. I changed my mind on window coverings twice in the first year. I think having a golf cart is important, but you can rent one for a month and then decide what to buy. If you have unlimited funds, then go for it.

Living in LaBelle and the bond on our,house is just under $20,000. Aluminum ladder was 250, blinds 1,000, gutters 500, closets 250. Not bad---we haven't done landscaping yet but don't plan on spending over 2,000.

The bond is high for a new house.
We ended up paying off the bond after a year. Hope we don't end up regretting that! We liked buying a new house and not having to "redo" things we didn't like. I think whether you buy a resale or new you will end up making it a home and be very happy.

We have had our house for 2 yrs. and lived here for almost
A year. Each year we'll do another item. This year will be adding some shade trees and landscaping. It is fun to see the house come together.

Since you may be moving into one of the newer neighborhoods, you might want to travel around some areas in The Villages that are several years old and see if folks have gutters. |

Surprised no one has mentioned all the monthly expense items such as:
Lawn care- cutting, fertilizer, weed control Lanscape trimming, weeding Pest prevention, including termite protection These could add up to $100.00+\- per month I'm sure there could be more... I'm sure you can do some yourself, but who has time for that!!! |

Is there anyway to find out what the bond is/was on a particular home?
