If not part your car or cart in front of their shop. Know this will work,done it myself.

I agree it is all about the contract in writing, but I found when I purchased my current home which was for sale by owner, I employed a real estate atty., fair warning. This does not always protect you I found, as it is not always worth sueing over.
I too was not given the 2 garage door openers, and our dwarf alberta spruce bushes that were planted around the property, disappeared overnight, before the closing the next day. I too was upset, but got over it when I bought new openers, and changed the codes, and put large rocks where the bushes had been.
Give it time, love where you live, and hug your new neighbors.
I personally can't wait until I get to buy in the Villages.

Thanks for the heads up about that Reality company. I'll be needing a good one sometime in the near future. I'm following some friends advice and buying a pre-owned home and a pre-owned electric cart.

You can spot a liar when they use the line : I promise or I wouldn't lie to you , or trust me ; and my favorite : I SWEAR TO GOD ......

We're buying a pre-owned on the 16th and am now thinking about a pre-owned cart as well. Once the finances settle down from the move, then we will look at the cart situation. I was going gas, but now am back to electric. . .go figure. Will probably change my mind many times before DOING IT! We bought through TV and got a certified home, so at least have a year on the major applicances, etc.

It is sad to have such problems when you are making such a large investment. My Mom always trusted someone until they gave her reason not to. However, her philosophy was back when a "contract" was just a hand shake. A person's word was their bond.

Thanks to all of you for your advise. Gracie, I love your idea but the entire courtyard was covered with those Junipers. It cost me $804 to remove them and that was the best estimate. They are gone now. I just wanted to make everyone aware of how Realty Executives operates. I have an email from them promising the garage door openers and I may just file a complaint on that issue but I'm pretty done with it. Just didn't want anyone else getting treated as poorly as we did. We love it here and the courtyard looks great now. Thanks for the welcome.
