Which one fits

Buyers who want newer construction (fewer near-term roof, HVAC and re-plumb items, and easier insurance quotes in Florida) will find it in Seminole Garden Apts Co-op; Ridgewood Groves trades that for a more established street and, typically, larger lots. Sellers get a faster sale in Ridgewood Groves (47 days on market on average); buyers get more negotiating room where homes sit longer.
