Imagine paying cash for your dream home in The Villages, only to find out you don’t legally own it. That’s exactly what happened to one local family after a botched title transfer left an elderly mother vulnerable to losing everything. Despite paying over $36,000 upfront, the title was never put in her name, and now she’s stuck paying thousands in rent, utilities, and legal fees—while the park even tried to auction the home as “abandoned.” This isn’t just one family’s crisis; it’s a wake-up call for anyone buying a mobile home in Florida. How can we push for better protections and accountability? #RealEstate #TheVillages #FloridaHousing
