The older homes were being taken out at a furious pace and it has virtually stopped comparatively speaking. There are a few new ones scattered around. I predict that one day The Villages will be back in the furious pace of the replacement of some of the Manufactured homes over here but until then it will give the smaller flippers a chance. Everyone Loves their own Village and I sure do Love mine over here in The Hysterical District! |

One of the great things about the new homes in the Historic section is that it is the only place I know of in the Villages where you can buy a new home with no bond. I was told that the Villages donates the old manufactured homes to those in need when they so a tear down and rebuild. |

Having played Silver Lake a couple of times and talking with some of the resident golfers, I got the feeling that they are happier with their plot in life than other areas. I was also impressed to see how many long time friends are there.

Off subject, the other day I saw a show about a guy from Chicago who turned his entire basement level into anything he could think of to do with the CUBS. He put Mega Bucks into it and it was beautiful. Just saying. Thought of you and many other friends from Chicago. I'll probably build a new home rite where I am now or on my street. Or a CYV close to The Historic Section. Time will tell. |

Historic
Back in December I started a thread about an observation I made that the removal and replacement of mobiles on the historic side appeared to be slowing. Kansasr sent this reply:
"When we inquired a while back, we were told there was a moratorium on buying more lots there, in part because they were having trouble keeping up with the demand for services down in the new southern sections. Looking at the Lake Co Property Appraisers data, it would appear the The Villages last purchase of there was 8/8/18." I hope this isn't true and if it is I hope the moratorium is a short lived one. |

We're in the historic section, and yes, new homes are popping up like mushrooms over here. And they all appear to be "stick built"...no new manufactured homes. We feel it is raising the value of all property over here on our side of the bridge. Some of the older homes, particularly the single-wides, are too far gone to be used elsewhere and would probably not pass any kind of safety inspection. But, I did hear somewhere that some have been re-purposed, but I don't know if that's true. It's exciting to see the new homes going up over here.

I bought my cottage home in the Village of St. James 7 years ago. The Villages of St. James, Buttonwood and Tamarand Grove all have cottages sections.

New Homes across 441
Does anyone know if the pricing is such that there would be a draw to buy in that area?
Clearly, the surrounding homes are of a lower value. Are the new "cottage" homes selling significantly less per square foot? |

Nice thought, but not true, you cannot live in a manufactured home in Florida, if it was manufactured before the early 1990s, and moved. You can live in old ones if they remain where they were originally placed. |

Insurance is difficult to get on modular homes, they don’t even cover water damage inside. Loved living there for five years.
