Default We Did It !!

We put a contract on a new furnished patio villa in the Sawgrass Villas section in the Village of St James on Groundhog Day (2-2-12). We close on 2-22-12 and are very excited. This was our third visit over the past three years and we couldn't go back to Maryland without making a purchase. We will be seasonal residents for now. We have made great use of this forum to educate ourselves and have found it to be an invaluable resource. It almost seems like we know many of the frequent posters. I would like to thank all the posters for their frank and honest comments about life in The Villages.

Well, now you can begin to advise other newbies!

So glad you've made the plunge.

Radioman -

Congrats on the villa. My wife and I moved full time to The Villages from Silver Spring (Colesville Rd & New Hampshire Ave) about 2 1/2 years ago. You will not regret one day of your decision.

Congrats- and with a furnished home all you'll have to do is pack up your clothes and come on down ready to have fun! Welcome.
