I can't thank you enough for this Gary! I bought in Richmond am coming down for closing in February. We'll be part-time much of the next few years and this info is essential for those who bought for location and can't quite retire yet! Glad to see the channel growing!
Great video. What I'd really like to know about part timing in the Villages is how do you handle the mail at both residences? Do you forward your mail if you're going to be gone a month? Have you gone completely paperless on your bills? What about magazines and newspapers?
@@GaryAbbott what happens in the Villages of your teeny mailbox gets full? I have a pretty large mailbox at my curb, but it's not secure in any way. At least the Villages mailboxes are secure. I really like the system there.
Good video. We bought a home last April. We are only able to get down there a few weeks throughout the year. All of your point were right on. We use Hometown Property Management and Deans as well. Very good services.
Thanks Gary, glad to see your doing well. We are in NJ and also considering a part time Village home. There is a lot to consider as I do not see it becoming a full time residence. Don't know if it makes sense to own a property 1000 miles away. Renting is always an option but nothing like having your own place.
I have used Wet and forget but it is so hard to judge the product since it is over time. I got some vinyl siding cleaner that uses my power wash attachment from Lowe’s and I get instant satisfaction. I will continue to use both and see if I get the best of both products. Thanks for watching my video.
I almost did a video on it but Rusty Nelson did when the documentary was available on one of the streaming services. I don’t think it is still available on the streaming network. If it is available I may do one from my prospective.
Great info!
Very informative, and good level of detail. I enjoyed your presentation, Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good, informative video. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!

I have everything sent to my second address and let the junk mail fill up my mailbox. So when I visit I clean out my mail box.

Great video! We just had our lifestyle visit and are thinking strongly of becoming part timers there. The info you presented is very helpful. Thanks!

Sounds like we are on the same path regarding living part time in the villages. Thanks for watching my video.

I have a feeling many people just do the lifestyle visit over and over which is really a bargain for what you get.
Wet and forget does a great job with Mold Control.
