Default Expenses

I bought a ranch home in January 2009 for $159,900.

Taxes: $196 month or $123 month w/homestead
Water/Sewer: $50.00 month - depends on usage
Electric: $82.66 - February & $60.18 - March (I am single)
Garbage: $52.00 every three months - even when you're not there!
Cable: about $50.00
Internet: about $50.00
Association/Amenities Fee: $135.00 month
Home Insurance: $76.00 month
Lawn Service: $45.00 month - depends on size of lawn area
Daily Sun Newspaper - $55.00 year (start and stop delivery any time)
Pest Control: $36.00 month average - I use Ocala Pest Control
Trail Fee: $141.00 - year - they also have a six month rate or $3.50 per round on the executive courses

I was only there three months. I am back in New York.

Hope this helps.....Good Luck
