Villa advice needed
Coming soon and want to purchase a 3BR Courtyard Villa retiring FT Sept. and moving to TV. Heard CV for single person not best choice as neighborhoods mostly snowbirds and empty so less community feel and not as safe. Any thoughts if this is true? |

If it was me, I would only buy a courtyard villa if it was my second home. If your going to live her year around then buy a house. That's my two cents. 12 Buying Tips For THE VILLAGES in FLORIDA - YouTube

Any special reason(s) you want a courtyard villa? Do you want new or pre-owned? Any certain part of the villages best for you?

thanks for your thoughts. I will be first time home owner so wanted smaller place with little to no yard care and big outside person so like privacy walls. But like I said concerned about neighborhood being empty. I will be in areas close to LSL

Our villa neighborhood is about forty percent full time. Never felt the security issue regarding occupancy and we’ve been here five years. I too prefer the CYV, for privacy and ease of maintenance. Good luck.

Keep checking courtyard villas in Pennecamp, Altamont Villas. Lots of full-timers and very active neighborhood. Nice mix of singles and couples.

thanks Madelaine. I am social and plan on joining clubs, ultra beginner line dance, pickleball, go to pool etc and sure I will meet people and make new friends. My concern for the villas was not so much being friends with neighbors but concern was for the safety of having others around. Security wise

Many full time residents in my neighborhood so never a shortage of nice, friendly neighbors for me. The location is great - close to shopping, restaurants and Lake Sumter. Good luck in your search!

The Verandas are larger than the CYV’s, have a fenced yard for privacy. Not near LSL if you are walking, 20 minutes by Auto, Golf Cart won’t be available VOSO is connected.

Not to confuse you but that is something to think about. We see houses now in Bridgeport for 550 K, 700 K, it serms they were over 900K and up, three years ago. Lots of places for sale and for rent. We are shopping, so to speak. Will lose some real money here, so it seems. |
