I think it takes too long to run your errands via golf cart vs car. But as an activity all its own, definitely. Like I did as a 12 year old on my minibike. I'll know when I move there.
Could list the insurance companies I can call for quotes. Looking to biy a designer home in the villages -burrowing owl model
married
Definitely thank you
Is it possible for a hotel visitor located in the villages to get guest passes?
Unfortunately no, you would need to either have a rental for a longer period of time or if you know someone there, they can get you one!
Good video. The maps were very helpful.
Happy to hear it!
Wonderful home.
Your drone person sucks a videoing
Don't forget about HVACs.
Great information! Thanks. Exactly my concern about moving to the villages. What about car insurance? Seeing people in Florida complaining about that too.
Misleading title. When one says New York they think New York City area not Buffalo hillbilly lady
The Villages, entitled carpetbagger boomer parasites,guess what. The locals hate you!
*Thank you so much for explaining these things.* Too many channels never do! Love that you reference the map so we can get a good lay of the land!
My pleasure! feel free to reach out anytime with your questions. I am always happy to help!
Fellow buffalonian here - moving to the villages in January!
The Villages, entitled carpetbagger boomer parasites, guess what. The locals hate you!
Awesome news! You will love it. If you have any questions or need anything, I am always happy to help !
Hi
One of the other Y-T channels on The Villages (Gold Wing Nut channel maybe?) said at least one of the indoor pickle-ball court buildings has stopped construction (some sort of issue, maybe the investors bailed) -- no further work has been done on it for some time now. I hope the building you're talking about isn't that one. -- BR
I do not believe so. They have it on their website that they are opening in 2024 and there as been several new articles about it. thepickleballclub.com/clubs-overview/villages/. that is their website !
Thanks
Manufactured homes have no maintenance fee? Why is this? Who takes care of the common maintenance areas? Thanks.
Yes, for ME it's still the interest rates! Most people disagree, saying "No, it's not the rates it's the high home prices" but for me (running the numbers) if the interest rate were lower then current home prices (in my markets of interests, as not all markets nation-wide or even state-wide are the same) WOULD be affordable, and easily. It's amazing what a 4% difference (3% vs. 7%) makes in one's P&I pay't each month! To me, it's Big Money (that I prefer would go to me into savings, not to the lender). As for home prices, I'm seeing them come down almost daily. Only slowly, true, but homes -- still inflated/over-valued/over-priced -- aren't now AS overpriced as they were 2-3 years ago. Additionally, I'm seeing more supply coming onto the market, mainly new-homes/construction, which should pressure prices downward. And even though current home-owners are still hesitant to sell due to current high rates -- so THEIR homes will continue to remain off-market -- I do expect supply to meet demand (and more) sooner than later...but for now it seems the Developers/Builders are leading the way increasing supply. Still, given the current high rates (for me, even VA Loan rates) I'll continue to be a renter and stay on the sidelines...but spending the time wisely preparing for the mortgage pre-qualification process in order to get the best numbers I can when the time is right for me to buy. Glad so see more homes coming onto the market in The Villages...expecting that to continue for a good while. ;-) -- BR
This is why we keep hateful people out.
What are the average homeowners insurance rates for homes ranging between $300k and $350k??
Trump just lost the Villages support. No one wants a dictator. Even Republicans.
Hello from Buffalo!! Your videos are really great!
Thank you!
You're right" it's almost exactly halfway (distance-wise) between Lake Sumter and Spanish Springs. Great location! 🙂 -- BR
Prices please.
What about premier homes
Does TV make you get a new roof every so may years or is that a thing the actual insurances mandate? Heard need a new one every 10 years but not sure if that’s via TV or the home owners insurance company? Also why does the sewer cost vary every month🤔
So there is a new ruling on that. If it is 15 years or older you might have to. They will have roof expert come out to determine. That is done through insurance though, not the villages itself! If you have any other questions feel free to reach out anytime at (352) 390-4800
can you please tell why isto no dive board where pool are!!!!!!
I am going to guess insurance reasons. Probably a liability
You noted your nick-names for Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter- but left out your nick-name for the newest southern section.
I call that no mans land! There just isn't as much built there yet. They do have a new square coming though !
What if I'm not quite 55 years old yet,,,
Hi! They do allow a certain amount of people to be under 55 or if you significant other is 55 , that is allowed as well!
@@LovingLifeInTheVillagesFL thanks doll,,,
Is there a way to search by bond paid off?
Hey there! North of 466, most of bonds are paid off. Checking the bond status on The Villages bond site is a great tip for prospective buyers. Feel free to call me anytime at 352-390-4800 and I’ll happily help answer any other questions!
Can't wait to try that Butterfish dish!
Its the best !
What’s your favorite color? Are you Single? 😉
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯
What is popular for one is a nightmare for others. The Villages has many choices to choose from. Everyone can find what they like.
So paying cash for a home we still have to dole out $1200 a month?
can u send link to the relocation guide pls?
Hi, here's the link to the Relocation Guide to The Villages, FL. Let me know if you have any questions, I'm here to help! bit.ly/3RNzbkc
I live in the villages and from what I understand there is no gated community. Anybody can get in just go through the visitor side and hit the button.
Yes but they have cameras that take a photo of each license plate when entering and exiting.
Yes that is correct,Villages is made of public roads. They can’t keep the public out. Lived there 7 years,she must be a realtor.No matter where you go there’s traffic.
Good information clear and honest. Thanks
First
I hope you don't let the 2 disrespectful, ignorant and classless fools (Special Needs?) below discourage you. Thanks for the information you give in all your videos about The Villages (TV). TV is one of 3 locations I will be looking at in ~2 years when I'm fully prepared (financially-speaking) to buy a property, and am working on that goal now. Thanks, -- BR
I think we are actually up to 115 pools and almost 300 pickleball courts and almost 800 holes of golf!! And with the Eastport area and south- that will add dozens and dozens of pickleball courts and probably a couple hundred holes of golf and at least a dozen more pools. I love that we keep growing. It ensures the Developer stays committed to our AWESOME community and adds endless amenities and more golf cart and walking and biking adventures!!! We live in and LOVE The Village of FENNEY!!
You keep paying fees, special assessments, taxes, bonds, all for the pleasure of standing in line to play pickle ball. You have difficulty getting a tee time esp. during high season. Grass on the courses are brown. Many people go over the speed limit in their carts and it is down right dangerous. So these are just some of the things that make The Villages stand out.
“You can get to the liquor store and the jeweler” by golf cart.” Wow! That is the most important info about The Villages?
Damn straight!
...that's okay rkoleda...you're clearly not ready for The Villages -- yet. But when you grow up and get older -- and IF you get wiser (sadly, many don't though) -- you MIGHT be. ;-) In my case I'm in West TX presently (for 2 more years as I financially prepare to buy a home) but am looking to move back to CO (Springs)...that is, IF the housing market there -- & mortgage interest rates -- become more affordable. Whatever, The Villages is Plan B. I'm even researching golf-cars -- just in case. :-) -- BR
Thanks for the run down. It was very helpful.
I also am wondering if they are purchase only.
Yes, they are only for sale. I am sure there are some for shorter rental. They do have condo type homes in Brownwood and near lake Sumter that you can rent!
Thank you! We’ve yet to try a country club restaurant, but will put Bonifay on our list.
All sellers should pay off their bond before putting it on market.
Married couples socialize with other married couples. The old widows socialize with other old widows. Single men are persona non grata. Also, "friendly" does not mean "nice." People smile and wave, but would not piss on you if you were on fire.
You could be scammed or killed 😢
