THE FASTEST WAY TO LEARN ABOUT THE VILLAGES – GUARANTEED
If you have big dreams of one day retiring to The Villages, but you just don’t know where to start gathering the best information – you are not alone. The Villages Florida Book is designed to help you separate the fact from fiction about America’s most popular retirement community, and begin your new life in The Villages with confidence.
The Villages is far and away the most popular retirement community in the country right now. Ask anyone who lives there and they’ll probably tell you there were things they wish they’d known more about before buying in The Villages. What I can GUARANTEE is that The Villages is different than any place you’ve ever lived. Don’t get me wrong…I think it’s a great place to live. But there are several important things that YOU NEED TO KNOW.
My name is Ryan Erisman and I’ve been researching and writing about The Villages for more than 5 years. I’m also the editor of The Villages Monthly, the only unbiased monthly newsletter published today about The Villages.
I wrote the first version of this book several years ago, and recently updated it in the Fall of 2011. It has enabled thousands of readers—just like you—to learn everything they need to know about The Villages before deciding whether to take the plunge and buy a home here.
IMHO the best reference book about The Villages and the state of Florida for retirement. Tons of facts and references gathered together for your enlightenment. If you are in or close to retirement and want to know about The Villages in Florida, this is a great source of information. - Nelson T. Champine

WHY THIS BOOK IS UNIQUE
Yes, there are other books out there about The Villages. Mine isn’t the only one. But I do believe mine is unique for three reasons:
1) It is/was the very first book written about buying a home and moving to The Villages. About 5 years ago I realized that The Villages was becoming a much sought after place, but a “complete guide” to The Villages such as mine was non-existent
2) I am a Florida licensed real estate broker. I have sold hundreds of homes to baby boomers moving from other parts of the country to Florida. I know what it takes to help make this a smooth transition for you and I impart that wisdom upon you in the book.
3) Other than being the author of this book, I have no ties to the developer or any other entity in The Villages. This allows me to remain unbiased in my advice and suggestions to you. You simply won’t find this brand of impartiality in other books or publications.
When it comes to learning about The Villages, you need someone with experience to guide you — not ivory tower advice or theory. You need a slam-dunk, sure-fire way to get your questions and concerns answered.
