About Candace Tulensru

I enjoy being a real estate agent specializing in active adults and 55+ communities because it allows me to assist people in transitioning to retirement in an area that I hold dear to my heart. Living in The Villages myself and having parents in their 80s in the same community, it's truly rewarding to witness retired individuals living their best lives and staying active in a place they can call home. I obtained my real estate license in 1999 and have been actively involved in selling real estate in Central Florida for around 5 years. I hold the designation of Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES) and focus on serving all the 55+ communities of Leesburg, The Villages, and Ocala. Additionally, I am a Certified Expert Listing Agent (CELA), bringing a unique set of skills to assist my clients in their real estate journey. For 55+ homebuyers considering a move to our area, the appeal is undeniable. The mild year-round weather allows for a plethora of activities, including golf, tennis, pickleball, swimming, hiking, day trips, nightly entertainment, and dancing in the town squares. Proximity to the beach allows for afternoon strolls and delightful evenings close to home. Importantly, our area is not prone to major storms, offering a sense of security. For those with grandchildren, the proximity to Disney and Orlando's attractions make visits exciting and accessible. A little-known fact about our area for non-locals is that Central Florida boasts weather conditions similar to Honolulu, HI, making it an even more enticing destination for retirees seeking a comfortable and enjoyable lifestyle. To those interested in 55+ communities in our area, I recommend a personal visit to truly experience the unique offerings of each community. With a variety of options centralized in the area, there's something for everyone, and I can be a valuable resource in navigating the individual communities based on personal preferences. On a lighter note, something fun about myself is that I first laid eyes on my husband when he was the fire-dancer at a luau I was attending! Although I am a widow now, we shared a happily married life and raised our four children on the beautiful island of Maui.
