Some people look at the bond in lieu of property taxes - and don’t consider the balance. However, if the bond balance was not important - why do realtors put NO BOND in the property write up?
I think we all could find houses with no bonds that sold quickly and houses with large bonds that sold quickly.

We tend to lose track of reality. First of all the realtor is a salesperson working for the property seller. If, you are selling a home you will say over and over again bond is paid.
Perhaps the home has nice landscaping, location, a pool, new ac, etc.
Even in the villages, two whatever the model name is are not worth the same price-location, additions etc. People buying your home. Are they really looking to buy a home or they have nothing better to do? Want to see how you decorated.
It is a bit of an art. Sold quickly. The seller thinks, I could have gotten more. Priced too high and the seller sits with the home and they can end up with less than they could have if it was priced properly.
