So, what impact to your resale value happens every time you go on social media and bash, in your opinion supposed problems south of 44?
Go back and read some of the posts and thread titles and tell me that has no impact when an Internet search is done.
So many false statements........

There is a 4th square planned and maybe a 5th. The growth south will happen for a few years before it is announced. The current name for the square is Disneyland. It will be renamed and golf cart accessible.

It looks like the 4th square will be going in down by the turnpike on rte 470 near the family area. This is probably years away from being built. Check out Goldwingnut videos to keep you informed of upcoming things. His drone videos are wonderful and very informational

So what you will get south of 44 is still up in the air until the legal dust settles,

3gen Dev changes north of 466 are very different than what can be done between 466 and 44 and way different than south of 44.
Villagers N of 466 "own" their Amenities which requires the Dev to obtain permission to use the amenities. The farther south in TV the less the Dev gave up control for. So purchase a beautiful golf front home next to a del owned feature, pay your bond and premium price, and if the Dev decides to take away the course or the feature, you have no recourse. V2PW.com isn't a bunch of angry old people, as a matter of fact just the opposite. We are however ensuring that the Dev and the governing city and county ensure due diligence as they hear the proposals for change if use.

I'm not sure you are referring to me making "false statements". As far as I know, the statements I have made regarding the homes south of 44 are very much true. I pretty much just make comments about the fact that the 441/27 corridor of retail stores, restaurants and medical facilities are too far for me to even consider living that far south. I do understand, however, that shopping and restaurants are not very important to many people.

I also make comments to the effect that traveling in a golf cart from south of 44 to the town squares up north would be much too far for me to even consider going by golf cart. Brownwood is actually doable but those villages that are very far south would be out of the question for me to travel in a golf cart.

I make comments that I'm concerned about the influx of more and more people in our town squares and restaurants just as a matter of the rapid growth of The Villages. I surely hope there will be another corridor just like 441/27 so all those folks from the southern end do not go there.

These are my feelings and I honestly don't think of them as "false statements". Actually, they are my opinions. I'm sure not everyone feels as I do so there is that.

Good news that there will be a 4th town square. Bad news it will be so many years away.

[Rodneysblue]

I heard from my barber who heard from his sister....
that it will be located next to the new Costco. 🤣🤪

I heard that probably 3 yrs. ago!

We have been there and are looking to move from north to south. Why? Because it is a reimagined lifestyle model that offers a more flexible retirement lifestyle. North is like a very large mobile home retirement community from the 1970’s. South is more urbanized, more active and we think better designed for the next generations of retirees. The current Villages model where you buy a cookie cutter lifestyle and then fit your life into it is redundant and tiresome. The new vision offers better neighborhood designs and more opportunities to live retirement “your way”. It is the future, embrace it.

We are already going there. As well as Colony Plaza and the area around Lowe’s on 466A. I don’t know where in the south there will be room for another large scale commercial development unless they turn 301 into another 441/27. Or maybe Rt 44. In any event, we like to go out 441 past the Hwy 27 and 441 split. It is easier to get to than going up north on 441/27.

Coleman and Sumterville will be the next commercial corridor, tons of commercial land. Also I would expect Leesburg to add more commercial enterprises as they have a ton of land that will be next to TV. There have been a lot of commercial parcels along Warm Springs where the small older homes are located that have been sold for commercial development, a gas station with mini-mart is going in at the intersection of 301 and Warm Springs and there there is the commercial land owned by the villages east of the Turnpike off Warm Springs. Lots more available that I didn't mention including the west side of 501.
