Wow, you film and upload in the same day! Good job! I was unaware of this new area, so thanks for featuring them!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Busy work week for both of us but I had a small window of time to get out and film and edit in the same day. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!

[@jpwwatson]

That’s why we are moving to The Villages. They even care for the families supporting Village residents by creating Middleton.

That’s awesome! Thanks so much! Say hello and introduce yourself if you see us out and about.

[@jonjur]

Thank for all the information. You guys are awesome. Thinking about visiting in September and probably buying in June or July of next year. 👍🏻

[@goofygirl1311]

Thank you for this! We were only there a couple of months ago and it's exciting to see these Sydney courtyard villas! Thank you for keeping us up to date with all of these wonderful new neighborhoods being built in The Villages.

I enjoy seeing the new neighborhoods and their prices. Helps me narrow down the type of home that we’d like. Thanks for a great video.

[@BeyondBlackjack]

Thank for the content. My husband and I just purchased our lot in Shady Brooke and are so excited. I found The Villages when I traveled to film table games for my channel and just feel in love with it. We will be back next month to finalize our home choice. It would be great to meet you both as it seems we will be fairly close to your area.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

That is awesome! Congratulations on your new lot and future home in Shady Brook! Keep us posted on the progress of your new home and move to TV. Thanks!

[@ourfamilyvideos7283]

Love this!! Thanks so much..these homes are going fast….we need to take a trolly tour while we’re there. We just learned that Babbitt and another fuenirture store have an “all in” furniture deal…you tell them home you picked and they’ll show you the “theme options””….. pretty handy. We,I’ve the boat ride at Sumter landing too…love being active…hope we run into y’all. ❤R&A

[@shelleypowers-pearson5679]

Thank you for another awesome, informative video. It gives my husband and me ideas on homes that will and will not work for us. This way we can have some decisions made before we come down to look for homes this Fall!

[@careybrackett]

I have been following the homes for the same reason! Not only do I love to see what they look like but also to give me an idea on size and style preferences. :)

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Thanks! Glad our videos are helpful. TV is so large (and keeps expanding) that it is hard to pick a perfect forever house without a lot of research. Lifestyle visits are a good place to start. That’s why we decided to just buy a new Patio Villa and treat it like a long lifestyle visit until we find the best long term or forever home and area of TV for us. It has allowed us to get out and explore, document and share to hopefully help others. Good luck on finding the best home and area of TV for you! Keep us posted. Thanks!

[@tgm16886]

We are doing a lifestyle visit in July and will be checking out the Eastport area. Thinking about buying a view lot and having a home built with our selection of floor plan and finishes.

[@hotelboz]

Very nice. I see lots of videos about prices falling in Florida. Not happening here. We are looking at communities 20 miles from the villages. Nicer homes that are 100k cheaper. But not in the villages. We may be driving to the villages for the events and shopping

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Thanks! Good luck on finding the right home and community for you!

Most of those new houses reminded me of the 'snout houses' that were popular back in the 80s and 90s. Personally I don't care for them but thanks for showing us.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks!

[@tamieemmer2795]

I love the Charlotte Models, but they raised the prices and very few have quartz countertops and Kitchens aren't the horseshoe shaped that I like, most of them just have the straight island in Moultrie Creeks and ShadyBrook ....it will be one the first models we will tour when we visit......Thank you for the video!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Glad you enjoyed the video! Good luck on your search and have fun our your upcoming visit! Keep us posted! Thanks!

[@Memelife62]

Thank you for the tour of the. Ew homes. Wish I could get one now! Are some of those houses more expensive than others just like them because of the location?

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Yes the exact same house could be more or less expensive depending on the neighborhood, location to amenities and the lot view.

Hey guys it's Tommy the Marine and jill from Chicago again. We are coming Thurs the 20th of june hopefully we can meet for coffee or a good craft beer.

[@martyrubin4103]

Was just at TV on a Lifestyle visit last week. Looking at a patio villa in Eastport area. Your videos are well done and informative. Just subscribed. Curious, do you use your golf cart for golf? It’s a really nice one!

[@ourfamilyvideos7283]

Let me let those of you know…we were iffy when we heard of the high school in Eastport…we just saw it…it’s like an amazing school and a gorgeous grandstand state of the art stadium. The parents have to volunteer so many hours for kids to go there and they have to work in the villages(from what they told me). If the kids are naughty, they’re booted out of the charter school.

[@goofygirl1311]

Oh, I love that house on the end on Messer Ave!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Great location and lots of privacy. Thanks!

[@goofygirl1311]

@@MichaelTiffanyTVE Check out the listing for 7744 Sydney Ct. I don't believe it was under contract yesterday but it is today. It has a view of the nature preserve which is even more private than the golf course view. I actually love it although I don't know what the bugs/critters are like with something like that.

[@BillBritt-iz2zs]

Right outside the villages the market seems to be changing it’s almost like it’s insulated. Many we spoke with last winter say they feel the villages is getting so crowded. The town squares are always crowded and people complain the golf courses are not maintained due to over use. Agin this is what I hear from others.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

There is definitely a lot of building (other than TV) outside of the bubble. But TV continues to expand and build in the Southern section. New town squares, golf courses and, rec centers and amenities.

[@smileyone6186]

Dear Mr Michael you really do an awesome job on your videos. Great Information and you are kind and you take your time. We are coming to TV next month so, do you have a video recommendation of what to do and visit our first time ? Hey and I always miss sweet Tiffany when she is absent❤ Toddah Rabbah❤

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Thank you! Glad you are enjoying our videos. Tiffany has been busy with work and travel but will be back on camera soon. Good luck and have fun on your upcoming visit. Get out and explore as much as you can on the golf cart. Check out all of the different town squares. Here is a link to one of our videos that might be helpful. Thanks! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHzanGaZptmVm8Ufeature=shared

[@smileyone6186]

​@MichaelTiffanyTVE I will do just what you prescribed❤SAFE travels too for sweet Tiffany❤Thanks for the Video.

[@golfsky]

Those houses are odd looking to me with the front being all garage doors and the front door entrance halfway down the side. I know they are selling fast though. Thanks for your unique overview Michael.

[@jcramton13]

It’s the lifestyle, not the house that people are buying into. However, I have a smaller patio villa, and it is absolutely perfect for me.

[@golfsky]

@@jcramton13 No doubt the lifestyle is one of the main reasons to rent or live there but at $250 to $350 or more per square foot, I am going to be very picky on the house also. I prefer some of the other layouts they offer that are wider and where the front doors are along the front plane of the house. This video was more about how the homes looked and their availability rather than the lifestyle so I simply gave my 2 cents worth.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

I think they design the courtyard villas for those that want more privacy. We will video and share some designer neighborhoods that look more like traditional homes (some even have front porches / lanais). Thanks!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

100% about the lifestyle! Glad you are enjoying your patio villa! Smaller space is less to keep clean and lower maintenance and utility costs. Thanks!

[@steveg6978]

will they hold their value is the question now ?

[@sherryk9805]

Michael - thank you for the update on the courtyard villa neighborhood! Question - how did you get to the map with the prices on The Villages mobile app? I can’t seem to find that map. Thank you for your videos!

[@Mkmmitch]

Just go to search homes. Click on the bars now in 😅the upper right hand corner then you’ll see a drop down to pick the search homes one. You’ll see a map with many dots just pick or expand it with your fingers and you can see all the areas. Hope that’s what you were asking for

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Glad you enjoyed it! On the app there is an icon on the bottom right corner to switch from list to map view (in the search for homes section). Or you can visit their website on your phone, tablet or computer (I see someone has already provided info on how to view the map on the website). FYI… The Villages recently updated their website (with new graphics and new content). It seems to be running a lot slower over the last week or so (especially the home search feature). Hopefully they get this fixed soon. Thanks!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Thanks!

[@sherryk9805]

Thank you both! But.. when I switch from list to map I can see the lots but they have dots in and not the prices. Even when I expand it I do not see prices. When you click on the dot, the house picture and price will appear at the bottom of there screen. But there are no prices shown on each lot like on Michael’s screen. No idea. Maybe it’s a filter 🤷‍♀️. LOL

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

I just realized they only show the dots on the map and not the prices on the app. You have to click on each dot to see the price. But if you go to their website on your phone it will show the prices on the map (that is what I had showing on my phone in this video). Hope that helps! Will do a video on the app vs the website in the next couple of weeks. Thanks!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Totally understand! Plenty of homes in the middle of the block to choose from. Thanks!

[@BradInStLouis]

In the last ten minutes we see a neighborhood of empty lots that could be future Designer Homes. They will be. The calling card of a Designer Home street is that it has concrete curbs including storm drains built into the curbs.

[@whitebearofthelake3562]

Any reason why they don’t put curbing in these new neighborhoods? Is it a cost issue or? Probably just raise the new bond even more than it is

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Good question! Don’t know for sure but cost is probably a big part of it. Also easier for the lawn cutting crews to mow and maintain all the lawns. Thanks!

[@MrsCoughlin0430]

Is “available for sell” somehow different than “available for sale”? I noticed you kept saying “sell” and was curious if in The Villages there was some other process for home sales.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

There are 3 ways to purchase a home in TV. (1) All brand new homes (and resale homes listed by TV on their VLS) can only be shown by a TV Sales Agent and purchased directly from TV. (2) Resale homes listed on MLS by and outside realtor are shown and purchased through and outside real estate agent. (3) For Sale By Owner homes are shown and purchased directly from the owner of that home. Hope that helps! Thanks!

[@jga1934]

How much clearance do you have in the golf cart garage?

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

It clears the opening of the garbage door by a couple of inches. Inside the garage there is plenty of clearance.

[@lifedowntheroad]

Looks like an awesome place. Being a single senior on a very fixed income, wish they had a "budget" smaller house area. Keep sharing, love watching you guys-been following since you were downsizing to go full time Rving!

[@AndiS-dz4pq]

The northern part of The Villages has nice homes under 250K.

[@katec4096]

They have manufactured homes. Some of them require updates that can be done over time once you own it. Or you can rent out 1 room ( getting a room mate).

[@infamyinfamy]

There are brand new 1 bedrooms (849sqft) available for $222.5k and 2 bedrooms (974sqft) for $227k. These are in Moultrie Creek and are Patio Villa series homes.

[@VickieonParadise]

Look up in the northern area of the villages where they have manufactured homes. We bought one on a beautiful lot with an amazing layout inside, huge breezeway and large golf cart garage for under $200,000. We did a bit of remodeling and it’s absolutely beautiful! We love the mature landscape, quiet streets and accessibility to any shopping, medical facilities, restaurants etc you could possibly want/need. And no bonds or CDD fees.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Very awesome place! Thanks for following along from our downsizing from our house days to our RVing days to our new chapter of life here in The Villages. I see a lot of awesome people have already replied with some helpful info. One of the things that I like about TV over other active adult communities is they have homes for almost any budget. I just checked the TV website and they currently have 2 bedroom resale homes listed for as low as $162,000 and brand new 1 bedroom for $222,000 and brand new 2 bedroom for $226,000. There are a lot of homes in the $300K to $500K range (new and resale) and there are also homes for $1 million+. Everyone who lives at TV gets to use all of the same amenities (rec centers, pools, golf courses, town squares, etc.) no matter how much they paid for their home. Come for a lifestyle visit and check it out if you get a chance. Thanks!

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Too funny! 😂 Some people will love them and others will not. Thanks!

[@cynthiaamitrano8915]

I’m thinking the Charlotte model isn’t a very desirable design. It’s obviously smaller. Thanks for the tour. Honestly, they all look pretty much the same. It’s all about the finishes. Don’t get me wrong. I’d very much like to live in one of the courtyard villas. I like that little bit of privacy the back wall provides. These have fences because of the view. I’d rather skip the view and the extra dollars and have a wall, preferably on a corner lot.

[@SippsShanandT]

I'm with you - not crazy about the Charlotte model. I've been following sales there and surprisingly the Charlotte's sell really fast...I can't exactly figure out why? Maybe I'm missing something.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Glad you enjoyed the tour. The good thing is there are lots of different home types, floor plans, locations, etc. to meet almost anyone’s individual preferences. Thanks!

[@katec4096]

@@SippsShanandT I think it is because they are smaller homes. Less money, maintenance, taxes, insurance. As you get older, most people have problems maintaining larger homes.

[@kristi215]

First I want to say I love and appreciate your videos. But I think I can speak for a portion of middle America,. Raising 3 kids there was never an extra penny to put into savings. Most of us could never afford one of these homes on our retirement. I’m happy for those that can. We have struggled all our lives and would love this, but there is no way. I personally think TV is pricing way too high, especially when you also have a huge bond to pay off also. Keep up the good work!

[@infamyinfamy]

There are brand new 2 bedroom houses, in the same Eastport area, available today for less than $250k. You'd almost certainly have to downsize, but I think TV is doing a good job having a variety of homes suitable for most price ranges.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Thanks so much for sharing so openly. Glad you are enjoying our videos and find them helpful. We will do a video or two on this topic in the future. Thanks!

[@RichA-yh8zz]

What are the bonds, taxes and CDD on these homes? Home price sounds good but I bet all other fees are a lot higher than resale homes.

[@jcramton13]

This area has the lowest taxes because it is in Sumter county. However, the newer, the home the higher, the CDD and bond.

[@gonebyrv9748]

On the houses shown in the video (Sydney Courtyard Villas), the bond is $41,259.81 spread over 31 years. $2823.33 or $235.28 per month for 31 years.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Great question that I forgot to mention in the video. I see another awesome person has already provided the info below. Yes the bond for these courtyard villas is $41,259.81. Thanks!

We live on a championship course and love it! Much less traffic than the executive courses.

[@bfn6ghh]

It so much cheaper to buy a resale. No bond established neighborhoods. And most homes are completely updated. Fancy driveways, gutters, landscaping is done, bird cages. These homes are over priced and come with nothing but a huge bond. Get MLS realtor and look at resales and save thousands of dollars. That’s what we did after our lifestyle visit.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Congrats on finding the perfect home and location in TV for you! Thanks!

[@susanbehme7518]

We’re wondering about the political environment at TV. We respect all views and don’t always receive the same courtesy. We’ve seen the infamous parade that made national news in 2020. Are politics a public and an outspoken part of the bubble? Or are differences in political views respected?

[@putoluto5256]

Why so many Charlotte floorpans? Are they building a lot of those because they are very popular, or are these the ones that are still available and not pending because people did not want Charlotte's? Oh, FWIW, I was less than impressed with Winslow, AZ. Aside from a tire shop, a WallyMart, a Holiday Inn and a Comfort Inn, there wasn't much else there. I stayed overnight to get a tire fixed in 2019.

[@MichaelTiffanyTVE]

Good question but I don’t know the answer. Maybe someone else with more insight can chime in. Route 66 was Awesome! We stopped in Winslow just quick enough to take some pics on the corner and then on to our next stop. Maybe I will edit and share the video of that trip someday. Thanks!
