In other areas the price of the bond...would be included in the price of the home but they do not do this here.

Older homes have had bonds and they are either paid or not paid, so their cost would still reflect the bond one way or another.

I imagine the bond is up because the cost of building the infrastructure has gone up just like other like processes are more expensive now than they were some years ago.
