2 sinks 2 closets no carpet MUST HAVES 🎉

Good point. No medicine cabinets. Also ceiling fans are missing from many of the new designs. I do love the quartz counter tops and large pantries.

[juliephares]

We like the Charlotte and the Durham. Thank you for the tours!

[cherialwayslearning]

Each model had something special about it. Going to be hard to choose, I’m sure. I really liked the kitchen with windows above the sink. That’s a nice feature.

[fierceflyer]

Thanks for the tour of the models. I like the porches & quartz countertops but not that they aren’t wired for ceiling fans in the guest bedrooms and no blinds on windows now. Can’t wait to see what you choose. WellPoint is opening soon perhaps that’s an option. Also would like to see some of the houses in the new section of Richmond.

Looks like the last one, the Charlotte, is getting very close to meeting your checklist! And it is already gecko approved! 😁

Hi Guys love your videos- looking for a video of the Dabney-C and Franklin?

[thomashenkler]

2 sinks are overrated especially in a retirement community

[Susie-Joy]

I loved the Charlotte before they changed it in the new builds - no ceiling fan wiring, no utility sink, etc. I really think they missed the mark not having wiring for ceiling fans, quite the labor and expense for a homeowner to move in and have to get done immediately. Sad about that, it's Florida, ya gotta have the fans! haha ☀

Have you seen the Anchor in the Cottage Series? We have a similar budget and wants and found that the Anchor ticks all the boxes for us. Nice kitchen, Nice Primary bath, Big Lanai and guest area separated by a pocket door. We're hoping to buy an Anchor Villa next spring. Happy Hunting!

Advantage of hard sides on that GC, both our Yamaha’s do. No hopping out to roll side down or up.

[aimeedegroot]

Will you be checking out Cresswind Lake Harris by Kolter Homes in Mt.Dora ? Grand opening is a few days.

[Harold-uc]

We did up north, 2/2 with three car garage.

THE LAST THING I care about when buying a home is whether there is two bathroom basins....People have gone plumbing crazy these days.

[ForvoQuizlet]

How far are all these new developments from the town centers and rec areas? Looks like it could be a long golf cart ride to get to anything.

[dennisd]

Glorified modulars/double wides. Seems like all these new builds are cheaply built with cheap windows, cheap appliances, etc. They look "nice" because they're brand new but take a deep breath before you buy. I would think a "used" home up north was built more solid? Good luck in your search!

[tamieemmer]

I wasn't a fan of the new models, something was missing in each home that I wanted. I wanted a Charlotte Model, but the prices went way up once they added the quartz counter tops, we ended up buying a Tall Pine in Moultrie Creek. We bought it because it has a concrete wall behind the house and all the lanai's are facing one directions, so no kissing lanai's and the homes behind us are courtyard villas.

[lauralampe]

Have you totally ruled out a preowned home? If not, are you working with a good MLS agent?

[gailbenes]

It looked as if the bathrooms all had Formica countertops??
For the price in the villages they could used better products

[christigallup]

2 sinks 2 closets no carpet. Double garage and cart.
