Ummm.

I think every villager thinks their village is the hot spot.

Everything is selling pretty fast these days.

A new village is fun and a lot of activities happen at first and then you settle in to just....lovely stuff.

Most new people think the squares are important to live near, but after a year or two most people don't go to the squares much. They socialize with the friends they have made and play games with them or just go out to eat with them. The squares have kind of boutique shopping opportunities. General needs for shopping right now are along 466 and 441/27 but 466A and down around 44 will soon be catching up.

If they are on the market here for a long time right now then there is an issue. Smoking, not well presented or over priced.

I would rather live right between Lake Sumter and Spanish Springs. Oh wait, I do! Nevermind.

Thank you everyone for your input! We want to find a courtyard villa or something close to Sumter Landing in or near Virginia Trace or Caroline and just can't seem to find anything. We are looking up to $210,000 and ready to buy. If we can't find something near Sumter then plan B is new construction in Collier near Brownwood. We are from Wisconsin and Cheesheads (go pack go) and would love to find something very soon! So any information you can give is awesome!! If you know of anyone selling please let us know. Nanci
