Welcome to The Villages. ...AND...The "WAY" I LIKE "GRENADIER" is Baked in Butter smothered in crushed Ritz Crackers. GRENADIER...Its what's for dinner.

Welcome! Lots of new, happy things await!

mrsanborn, congrats and here's hoping all goes as planned. We're right behind you... we'll be moving to Ansley Path in TG.

Welcome
 

Congratulations to all TG Villagers! Thought Sanibel group was jumping but you are great with high exciting decibels too. Already a first social get together! In addition to a monthly social, FYI, we started a garage party on Friday. Someone wanting to host a garage party, puts out an agreed upon sign on the front lawn. One brings one's own lawn chair and drinks. The host only offers the outside garage space. It doesn't happen every Friday but whenever some one wants to do it. Quick way to getting to know more neighbors. We already did a few times amongst our immediate neighbors at Pennecamp, a relative new Village. I do realize you don't want 180 neighbors descending on your garage either :mornincoffee::mornincoffee:

Wow!
 

Sounds like Tamarind Grove is hopping! We bought a lot in TB on Carriage Hill Way, didn't start to build yet, have to sell our home in the islands yet, just got back from there, real estate is s-l-o-w, so little disappointed I can't start building yet. Can't wait to start, hoping it will be soon. :pray:

Keep the faith, it WILL happen. There's an awfully nice bunch of new neighbors here, waiting to welcome you home!

Hang in there, DebbieB. It only takes one to sell.

We are going to be looking at Tamarind Grove this weekend and we are originally from Baltimore, Maryland -- hope to meet you --
Helen Schuster

We moved to Tamarind Grove from the Baltimore area on July 5th, it was Harford County to be exact. We're in the courtyard villas in Southern Star villas. Our neighborhood is a little quiet because several villas were bought by snow birds who aren't here right now. Just got back from the community pool, that's a good place to meet a lot of the neighbors.

Hi Helen LCSW . . . . My husband and I moved into our Tamarind Grove home on Montbrook Place in late June and we love it here. I'm a Baltimore native, but lived in North Carolina for 20 years before moving here. I really miss the great seafood (especially the steamed crabs). Looking forward to meeting you. Stop by and say hello if you have time (2354 Montbrook Pl)

Just moved in
 

You will be wellcome.
We just moved in ...first people on the block...
Nice place...but very humid...

Welcome

Hi, We live on Highbanks Ct. in Tamarind Grove, been here three months and loving it!

Chuck & Cathy

Dividing Creek Path
 

We recently bought a lot ( #47 ) at the end of Dividing Creek Path. I see there are quite a few lots already sold and some being built on. Anyone out there building on Dividing Creek Path ???

minyardc & Groundhog40, we just finished our house at the end of Ansley Path in TG. We're counting the days until mid-October when we will become frogs. See ya at the pool!

We bought a lot on Dividing Creek Path in late July. We are meeting with the design center in to weeks. We are building a designer home and it should be completed by mid november. We would like to sell our house in NJ before we move in full time. Our house in NJ is up for sale now. We are ready for the next chapter of our life to begin in TV. See you soon.:smiley:

Good luck selling your house! We are doing the same in VA. Can't wait to get to TV! See you soon!

When you take pictures next month I'd like to see some, please. I'm at the end of Tamarind Grove Run. This link may help you.

Look Out Here We Come
 

Also looking forward to life in Tamarind Grove. Sold home in Pittsburgh in June. To The Villages in July to buy a home. Remote close today on a Lily on Bachman Path. Hope to be moving in less than a month. Enjoyed the neighborhood rec center and people we met in July. Susan & Pat Hanley:highfive:

Congrats, pittspat! We have a Sun Kissed at the east end of Ansley pat. Will move around mid-October. See ya at the pool!

Jim, I see 3 houses on left side of tamarid Grove rd under construction by the map at the intersection of TG rd and DCP. Let me know which lot is yours and I will make it a point to take pictures for you. I am on the other end of Dividing creek path near Helen st (I think).

Thanks for the offer. I'm second to last lot at the end of TG Run and on the east side (right side) of the street as it ends at DCP. Good luck with all your plans.

Hi New Residents--Husband & I are looking to build early Feb/2012--still trying to sell our home in the Poconos, Pa--not easy--wish you luck. We are on Southwood Dr. You might be near us. We are so worried house won't sell.
Arlene & Wayne King

First, understand you are not alone. Many of us from all points of the compass are doing the same thing;Praying for folks to view our homes for sale. It will happen when it does and one of the things you can do wrong is price it without taking about a thirty percent loss.

You can make up your loss over the years with the current value at TV. You're getting two things here at TV, your buying your last house and a new life style at the same time. The people already here, having gone through what we are now, are our support group and their fees are very reasonable to say the least, just satisfaction for having helped someone like them.

It will be good, and if you have to turn your lot back in that deposit will just go to another neighborhood and maybe that was part of His plan all along. Hang in there, and keep your head up. Welcome!

Lots
 

Jim,

Your home better sell! I don't want to let mine go if I have to follow you to another Village. :)

I like being called " A Grover! "

Can't wait till next July when I can learn how to relax and slow down!

Herv

Hi Barb,

We just moved down here from Michigan and are building on Kate Hill Street in Tamarind Grove. Our move in date is October 31st. Hope to meet you soon.

Penny & Curt Schellenberg

My brother and sister-in-law from Colorado just moved into their Iris on Lowell St the beginning of Aug. Lots of empty lots on their street, but it is building up quickly. We sent them weekly pics of their house being built, and now they are getting to watch (with fascination) the speed of others being built.
They have met many of their neighbors who are building.

I think TG is sold out except for spec homes
 

We Just got home today. We will be closing Dec 5th on our designer home in TG. We were there in the end of July and there were only a few homes started. I would guess that it is 2/3 built or being built now. What a difference! Can't wait to be an official Frog and grover.:a040:

Grove not sold out
 

My mistake I see there are 11 lots and many speck homes avaliable in Tamarind Grove . sorry for the miss information.

One less available, we just bought in Cottonwood! See you folks soon:a040:

Yeah! Congratulations to you! :) We are your neighbors in the Montbrook Villas.

Welcome neighbor.

Lots
 

Where did u find the list of available lots??

This is the link for 'The Grove'

http://www.thevillages.com/newslette...e-model176.htm

There will be more spec homes for sale in there in about one month as well. Good luck.

And we're your neighbors on Littlestone Terrace in Cottonwood....see you in October!

Geri & Chuck looking forward to seeing you again....

George

I'll see you soon. We will be on Lowell Terrace. Hope you're loving the lifestyle.

A Big Step In The Right Direction
 

WE DID IT!!! We signed our contract today and got our closing date of Dec. 8. We will be on Bachman Path and starting the next stage of our metamorphosis from tadpoles to frogs. We will be moving in early Jan, unless we sell our house sooner and have to close earlier than we want. We will make other arrangements if we have to. We will not miss outran sale. Our house has only been on the market for three weeks and have had 10 showings. No offers, but we are confident that there will be a sale in time. Houses in our area are moving in 30 - 45 days. (Please extra fingers and toes crossed for us). We are very excited to get to TV and "get busy". We will be there soon!!!
B&BTexas

All fingers and toes crossed! Good luck...see you soon!

She missed the monthly meeting. What did she miss? Is it different in the CYVs?

B&BTexas - Best of luck in selling your house and moving to TV. Where in Texas are you located? I just got back from a 2 day business trip to Houston - 100 degrees one day, 102 degrees the next day. Whoo was that hotttt! :wave:
