Winter Garden is on a distinguished road
The reason I say don't believe all the sales people tell you is they tell you about the future school, shopping center, and road to the 429 toll road. Some of this could be 10yrs away but they word it so as you think it is in progress (some of the land is still in private hands). I live and work here and it is a great place, as for an interstate move being a big thing I came from the UK (just a little island out to the east) but the people here are great and that is what counts. I can say I love living here

So the empty feel of the neighborhood should go away soon.
I am curious though, one of the posters stated not to believe the sales people. Can you give some detail on that? I am a realtor licensed here in Tennessee and plan to get licensed in Florida, and I know what to ask, for the most part. I have done my own research on the taxes, schools etc and so far everything the sales person said showed up correctly. Its a gigantic move for us, so any information you can give me would be great.
Thanks!
I have said previously you won't get the same indepth info unless you use a realtor who specializes in the area and lives there like myself. A sales person for the builder does just that, work for the builder. As a realtor you should know this. Also don't be under the illusion because ur a realtor gives you an edge as ur not from the area. Just as if I were coming to tennassee I would still use a local realtor.

infonextlive is on a distinguished road
My husband and i were going to move there before we brought our first home...and I do happen to know they are still trying to develop things and the after effect should be nice- we just found a better price but where live is quite nice- still you just need to confirm somethings and do your research and you should be okay.
