A 61-year-old Davenport man accused of swindling tourists looking to rent vacation homes in Central Florida has taken a plea deal.

Circuit Judge Michael E. Raiden sentenced Roger Colby to five years in prison Monday.

He must also serve 20 years’ probation and pay about $73,000 in restitution.

Colby pleaded no contest to multiple charges, including scheme to defraud and a dozen counts of grand theft.

As part of plea negotiations, prosecutors agreed to drop charges against Colby’s wife, Rosalind, 57.

The Colbys were arrested in November after a State Attorney’s Office investigation, arrest reports show.

They operated a business called “Green Orange Villas” and advertised short-term rentals of villas and vacation homes through a Web site, arrest reports state.

Unsatisfied customers came to Florida and discovered homes promised to them were not available, reports state.

Court records show conditions of Roger Colby’s probation include that he cannot have a job handling money, he can only have access to one checking account, he cannot engage in business associated with rental units or real estate, and he cannot engage in business involving advertising or soliciting sales via the Internet.
