Why two websites?

They serve different purposes and give our subscribers "the best of both worlds".

www.VillagersHomes4Rent.com allows viewers to see all of the rental properties, so you get great exposure in the "pool" of rentals without additional advertising.

www.OurHome4Rent.com is the Private Showing website that allows viewers to see only your rental by entering your unique property ID (consider it a "secret code"). Use it for networking and newsprint advertising without exposing viewers to other available rentals.

Any "editing" that you do on the www.VillagersHomes4Rent.com website automatically flows to the Private Showing website, so there isn't anything extra for you to do.

About VillagersHomes4Rent.com

We are an independently owned and operated advertising website that is not affiliated with community developers. The website was founded in 2005 by local residents, Don and Marilyn, and is now owned and managed by their daughter, Judy, who lives in CT. When you call or send us an email, you are communicating directly with an owner and family member.

This site is for owners of properties located in The Villages who manage their own rentals. This makes property rentals more affordable by eliminating third party managers.  You will not compete with professional agents on this site.

A few words about Photos

You must own the photos submitted for use on our website and must provide them as email attachments. We do not download photos from any website in order to honor any existing copyrights, which are federally protected.

We take the time to edit every one of your photos so tipped, dark and blurred photos are improved as much as practical.  We watermark the edited photos with a copyright notice to protect our time and labor investment and reserve the right to exclusive use of the improved photos on our websites.  You retain the rights to your original photos.
