OP, I think there may be some additional taxes depending on WHERE the house is located. As I understand it, if you are in another city (Wildwood, Fruitland Park, Leesburg) you may have an additional tax that we in Sumter county do not get. So the info you originally received from the sales agent may be correct. You should ask for a detailed breakdown for the taxes, bonds, etc., so you get a reliable number. IMHO, if this is a major concern, then be sure you get a listing of all over the other typical monthly costs, water, electricity, trash, Amenity fees, etc.
