What type home, patio villa, CYV, cottage or designer home, big difference in most items by the size, county and sometimes the price of the home.
My 2BR 2BA masonry CYV was built in 2011 in Sumter County, District 8 Village of Tamarind Grove. So we probably have the smallest footprint just above a patio villa. I'll make some things simpler with the actual bills. I don't know what your Development District Assessment is exactly. I have no lawn maintenance, all my grass was removed and I do my own watering, weeding and trimming, here's what I pay.
Bill #1) Amenities, drinking water, irrigation water, sewage, thrash is all on one bill, averages
$235 to $245 a monthh, depends on how much I water the yard
Bill #2) Electric is SECO, averages
$79 to $91 dollars a month
Bill #3) Directv averages
$160 a month for 300+ channels but no premium channels, but does include NFL Sunday Ticket
Bill #4) Century Link fiber optic high speed internet
$49 a month for life
Bill #5) I also have a home phone with Century Link about
$43 a month, it actually comes with the other bill, but since you may have a different phone I'll separate it
That's $588 a month, then you can break down the two bills below in 12 amounts if you want, I pay them in a lump sum.
Once a year) Homeowners Insurance with 10% sink hole with Cabrillo Coastal Insurance through the Villages Insurance
$619 a year
Once a year) Taxes, Bond, Maintenance & Fire Dept one bill
$2600 a year
Here's an actual photo so you know what I'm referring to as a CYV (Courtyard Villa)
