Ask Lili Anything About The Villages
I would much rather answer your question today than lose you to confusion later. After more than 20 years in residential real estate and over 450 homes sold, I have learned that the questions people are embarrassed to ask are almost always the most important ones.
No question is too small or too silly. Why does The Villages have an amenities fee instead of an HOA? Should you sell before you buy? Can you keep the house and rent it out? What is a Friday night at the town square actually like? Send it to me, and I will answer it myself.
I answer personally, in English or Spanish, for buyers, sellers, and anyone still deciding whether The Villages is the right place for their next chapter.
Send Me Your Question
Fill this in and it comes straight to me. A phone number is optional, but it helps me call you back with a real answer instead of a long email.
A few questions I hear often
Before you write to me, one of these may already answer it. If not, send your question anyway. I would rather hear from you.
Do I Need to Sell My Home Before Buying in The Villages?
This is the first thing almost every couple asks me, usually in the car on the way to a showing. The short answer is no, you do not have to sell first, but the right order for your move depends on your money and your timeline.
