storage and a big garage helps. The further north in TV the quieter.

We lived in Upper Arlington after college until our move down here. We would be happy to meet you when you are down. The Villages is one of the best decisions we made. Been here 8 years. There is a very active Buckeye Club and we are also members of the OSU alumni association. Just PM.

We wanted some amount of privacy and a small house. We found the perfect corner lot patio villa that was for sale by owner in 2013. LOVE the villa! We sold or gave away almost everything and live VERY simply in the 6 months we are in TV. We like having the flexibility of living in Florida and in Wisconsin. I love snow!

We purchased most of our furniture at the consignment store, Bargains and Treasures (we bought new mattresses). We have a view lot because privacy is important to us. I love the four seasons; well, three of them at least. We spend winters in The Bubble to avoid snow and ice.

We have 2 dogs and Do not want our life to revolve around walking dogs so a CYV was our only option. We wanted privacy and did not want to backup to another house. We found a corner lot with plenty of space and grass. We are so happy with what we found but it really depends on your situation.

So many great suggestions to think about.
I would like to add that we had many of the upgrades built when we built... Our neighbor did not. They built with the the cheapest builder grade on everything in their home. CHEAP!!! CHEAP!!! CHEAP!!!! THEN.... they had people come in and put in EXACTLY what they wanted! The have a top of the line home for probably less than our home and more adds. And you know what... They will only pay taxes on the base price of their home. Smart neighbors. Just something to think about.

Be aware that on new homes there are no negotiations with the developer. The contract for purchase has no contingencies. No financing contingency, no inspection contingency. If you require financing. They do not accept FHA financing or VA financing. They only accept conventional financing.
If you purchase pre owned than all of the above is moot. If you purchase pre owned you will need a MLS Realtor and a Villages realty rep. In the pre owned market The Villages lists about 50 percent and all othe companies list the other 50 percent and they do not cooperate. I am not saying this is good or bad it's just how it is and different than any place I have purchased a property. Last edited by OpusX1; 04-18-2016 at 07:59 AM. |
