Hey Michael, yes please interview the couple who is building their cottage home. That is always wonderful information for us out here looking to learn. I think you are becoming celebrities in the villages Michael, you are being chased to be told THANK YOU for all that you and Tiffany do. Congrats!
Hello Michael! Thank you for touring the new Avery Villa’s, that will be our new neighborhood! We bought one of those Emerald models on Rottermond Way last friday and very excited to become new villagers from New Hampshire!
So glad you are enjoying it with us. There is so much to see, do and document here at TV. Construction will probably be going strong for the next 20 to 30 years as they keep expanding. Will do our best to try and keep up with it all. Thanks!
great videos.....any chance you can take a closer look on the progress in Waters Edge to include the rec center? trying to figure out how long it will be before we can start our build.
Michael , the way you are going , I can see you end up with 100,000 Subs and Viewers, how cool is that !!!! Sound like the homes in The Villages are selling out Fast !!!!
Hi, I’m in Australia and love your informative videos. We live in a village here so it’s interesting to compare with ours. The prices there seem very reasonable than here, but we don’t have to stay a year before we can sell, and there is no bond. We don’t own the land and pay a weekly site fee.
Hi there Michael. Thanks for posting another video of the beautiful villages. They motivate me to strive towards my goal of retiring there, even though I am many years away 😂. If you have the opportunity to tour a “Poplar” model home I’d love to see it on your channel. Thanks again and have a great day!
Hi Michael. My wife and I are building in the cottage neighborhood behind the Shadybrook recreation center. We were down from Tennessee last week meeting with our designer to get it all designed to our liking. Thanks for the updates that you and Tiffany do. It helps people like my wife and I keep up with the fast changing construction going on there. We are scheduled to close Oct 21st, so we will see you in a few months.
@@MrDaleOaks 👋 Hi… we dropped in last week. I finally talked my husband into looking at the Villages at the end of our Beach vacation… We are from Tennessee too. I think his on board now. His retired and I will be within this next year. We looked at many models and agreed upon one of them. I do have a question I forgot to ask the agent. If we don’t build and just come down and pick one out… is the price negotiable??? Or is it what is it listed? Also if you go with the listed price does that include all closing cost??? Thanks 😊
Please interview Rich and Sandy.!! We are very interested in the building process. We liked the information you gave about being prepared to buy by “ give your sale agent your credit card….and so forth “ This is great info. We still have 5 years before we can buy, but we will be visiting in the Spring for a lifestyle visit. Thanks for all you do to educate us on The Village Experience.
@MelanieVincent-b5y I'm in the same boat being 5 years out, and was hoping to do a lifestyle visit in the spring as well, but the person I spoke to at TV discouraged me from doing so because he said you only get one lifestyle visit and basically we are too far out from purchasing to use our only lifestyle visit now. Needless to say, I was pretty disappointed after that call. My plan was to do a lifestyle visit, and then, starting the following year, we'd rent for a week each year there after to explore the different areas to determine where we want to be.
Wow surprising...my husband and I had our lifestyle in 2018 and we are hooked on the villages from the visit...future villagers within 2 years hopefully. I've been window shopping since 2018 so ..I d say you never know when someone is going to make the villages their home . Getting educated is part of the fun . And great people like Michael and Tiffany to show you around is great. Keep watching as these videos have been helpful to us.
We live in an apartment new Orlando. Our average monthly cost is $2150.00 a month. Fore sure going to be looking into the Villages soon. I’m a retired veteran, thus another $5k of property taxes. Owned a house for over 20 years nearby and sold it in 2021 for a nice price.
Hi Michael and Tiffany! Your video was perfect for us. We would like to purchase a Veranda? with a view in about a year. It is soooo hard to tell what might be available in a year. We want to be close to Eastport ONLY. As you know, it is hard to tell what will be available until it is available. Your tours of the areas with SWAGS for what might be released and when is exactly what we need! Keep it up the good work. Tim & Karen Estes Park Colorado.
Thanks so much Tim & Karen! Glad you are enjoying this experience with us. They will be building many more Vernada neighborhoods near Eastport over the next couple of years. Will do our best to document and share with everyone as they do. Thanks again!
Awesomeness! So glad you are enjoying this experience with us! 👍❤️ Don’t tell anyone but we have our bad days (or bad moments) too 🤣. Thanks for showing your support! Totally appreciated!
🤔 Hmmm… The listed prices on each of these Patio Villa homes (with a golf car garage) is similar or higher than the listed prices when we bought our new Emerald Patio Villa (with a golf car garage) home last year. Plus the bond is $4,000 higher for this neighborhood ($25,787).
Beautiful sunset drive in TV at the end, thank you for another great video. Would love to know an idea of what the couple is paying in rent for their place in Bradford. Along that same line would be great to get info on what a standard new patio villa in waters edge for example would rent for, thank you!
I am not quite sure what you do for a career, but you would be fabulous selling real estate for TV. Could I be your first customer??? Appreciate your "boots on the ground" videos for those of us that live in other states so we can see what is going on almost real time.
Thank you so much! If this TH-cam thing does not work out 🤣 then I might need to start selling houses here at TV. Will put you on my list as the first person to contact if I do. 👍 So glad you are enjoying this experience with us. Thanks again!
Great question but I don’t know the answer. Will do some research and include in a future video. Hopefully some other awesome people with more knowledge can chime in. Thanks!
It does not look like TV is building walls or fences around the new Patio Villa homes in the new areas. Will go back and document once they complete this neighborhood. Thanks!
Hi Michael & Tiffany, We just bought a lot in Shady Brook to build a Robin home. Would you be interested in journaling our process from now to close? Tom
Great question. In the app you have to click on each individual house to see the prices. If you go to their website on your computer, tablet or phone then you can see the maps with the prices. Will make sure to mention the differences between the app and website in future videos. Thanks!
I don’t know why The Villages can’t spring for some umbrellas over the gaming areas? I noticed that when I vacationed there, it’s almost like they don’t care about Villagers.
Hi Michael, another great video as always. I will really like you to interview and film the process of the Cottage home Rich and Sandy are building, since I want to buy also a Cottage house. See you soon my friend.
Great video. Shameful TV doesn't go green with astro turf lawns. No noise lawn machines, no gas, no street parking and most of All no water consumption!! ❤❤
Great question. The new Patio Villa homes only offer a 1 or 1.5 car garage. So the ones that have a separate golf car garage offer more flexibility and storage space (even if you don’t have a golf cart). Thanks!
Thanks Michael for another awesome video, wow they are really doing a lot of work over there and I can't keep up with all the new development. Hope you will get some rest Tiffany and be able to enjoy your time while you are here!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE Thank you Michael. I'm thinking that's where the answer to my question is contained. Since the villages are in a 'community type' living situation, where you are forced to abide by certain rules, they must have given you these rules and regulations (as well as fees and punishments for not complying) during your escrow disclosure period? Same as they do when you buy a condo or townhome and are given CC&R's....thru the home owners association.
Do yourself a favor, if your going to be cruising new construction areas, and it looks like you will, carry a spare tire. lots of loose nails , schrap, etc. flat tires will be in your future. Construction folks pretty loose about that. That reason alone, I wouldnt buy a new construction home.
So, Patio Villas were hard enough to figure out when they were just the ones named after gemstones. Now we have Haven, Cottage, Nest, Retreat, etc. Was not aware there were patio villas with lanais in the back instead of up front - which ones were those again? Garnet? Trying to figure out the primary differences between Garnet and Emerald. Question: Does one have to be present in The Villages for the signing / closing, or can the docs be FedEx'ed up north and a notary hired?
Link to TV with all the names and floor plans of Patio Villa homes. Hope this helps! You should be able to DocuSign everything remotely. Good luck! www.thevillages.com/home-series/patio-villas

Could you tell me what your range is on your electric golf cart
Thank you
Thank you for such a great video. How fast does your golf cart go?
Would love to see you interview Rich and Sandy who are building a cottage home! Great video!
Will do! Thanks!
Definitely interested in hearing about the experience building a cottage home
Yes, please interview Rich and Sandy. I would be very interested in hearing about their experience designing their cottage home.
Will do! Thanks!
Headed there in a year or so, can’t decide new or used🧐 great video

Thank you another great video. I can’t wait to join you all. Hi to Tiffany.
Thanks! Keep us posted!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE our home was listed yesterday. Hoping for a quick sale
Great Video! can you start doing more Designer & Verandas homes & sites?
Wow looks like prices have come down despite how fast they're selling. Great that they're offering to customize cottage homes.
🤔 Hmmm… The listed prices on each of these Patio Villa homes (with a golf car garage) is similar or higher than the listed prices when we bought our new Emerald Patio Villa (with a golf car garage) home last year. Plus the bond is $4,000 higher for this neighborhood ($25,787).

Do the Villages have community gardens? Do they allow residents to plant food gardens and or fruit trees?
Great question but I don’t know the answer. Will do some research and include in a future video. Hopefully some other awesome people with more knowledge can chime in. Thanks!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE Thank you Michael. Appreciate it. 👌
yes to the interview

Great video. You and Tiffany have such an enthusiastic personality.

Thanks! Hoping to take a golf cart ride up your way and back on a day when we don’t have thunderstorms. Maybe this Thursday!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVESounds good. Mornings are better, weather wise. Saludos !!!
Watch your tires with that construction!
Thanks! 👍
Where are the walls around the patio villa neighborhood?
It does not look like TV is building walls or fences around the new Patio Villa homes in the new areas. Will go back and document once they complete this neighborhood. Thanks!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE TY

how do you know where your going on the cart paths? is there a map? or signs?
Hi Michael & Tiffany,
We just bought a lot in Shady Brook to build a Robin home.
Would you be interested in journaling our process from now to close?
Tom
Absolutely! Email us your contact info and we will be in touch. Have an awesome weekend! Thanks!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE
😎 will do.
I could not locate an email address so I sent contact info to FB messenger.
Would love to hear how you can design a cottage home.
How does everybody feel about the frame Construction with the vinyl siding ?
We will talk more about this in a future video. Thanks!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE ok thanks
Another great video Michael. 👍😊
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Do you and Tiffany still want to move? Your place is so cute.
Thank you for sharing Michael. Love your videos!!
Thanks so much! 👍
Michael I noticed your views of homes on the villages app shows prices. Mine does not do that on my iPhone. Do you have a different app?
Great question. In the app you have to click on each individual house to see the prices. If you go to their website on your computer, tablet or phone then you can see the maps with the prices. Will make sure to mention the differences between the app and website in future videos. Thanks!

Hi Michael - are these properties age restricted?
Yes would enjoy an interview on the cottage build process! Do they all have fences?
They don’t. However their are some Cottage Villa neighborhoods that do.
@@richb.1453 thank YOU!
The only brand new homes that include a fence or wall (right now) are Courtyard Villas and Veranda homes. Thanks!
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE I seen a video referring to the WellPoint neighborhood that will have cottage homes with fences. That is in the future for sure.
MC HERE WE COME🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

Can you use a tesla pedestal charger away from home?
Another great video. Was nice meeting you at the pool !
Thanks! It was great meeting y’all too! Good luck with the build process and closing day. 👍😎
Why is the golf cart garage so important if you have a 2 car garage that will fit the cart and a car?
Great question. The new Patio Villa homes only offer a 1 or 1.5 car garage. So the ones that have a separate golf car garage offer more flexibility and storage space (even if you don’t have a golf cart). Thanks!
Thanks Michael for another awesome video, wow they are really doing a lot of work over there and I can't keep up with all the new development. Hope you will get some rest Tiffany and be able to enjoy your time while you are here!

Hey great video- would love to find out what the custom cottage building process is like 👍
Thanks so much! Will do! 👍
Can you purchase new homes with four bedrooms and three bathrooms or even three and a half bathrooms.
Yay - a new house lookie-Loo video! Can't wait for our visit in the fall to see some in real life. Thanks, Micheal!
Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you have an awesome time on your upcoming visit in a few months. Keep us posted! Thanks!
How close is Avery patio villas to Eastport town?
Less than 3 minutes by golf cart. You can ride along in this video starting at 18:02
About a minute by golf cart up Barr Blvd. I know cause we're building in the designer neighborhood behind Saluki and across the street from Avery.
Being that you don't have HOA's in the villages, what is it that you are governed by instead of the CC & R's .
Will make sure and discuss in a future video. Here is a link that explains the CDD - Community Development Districts. www.districtgov.org/faq.aspx
@@MichaelTiffanyTVE Thank you Michael. I'm thinking that's where the answer to my question is contained. Since the villages are in a 'community type' living situation, where you are forced to abide by certain rules, they must have given you these rules and regulations (as well as fees and punishments for not complying) during your escrow disclosure period? Same as they do when you buy a condo or townhome and are given CC&R's....thru the home owners association.
I really like the northern area of TV where homes aren’t quite as cookie cutter and so close together, I appreciate this though
