Lived in VIRGINIA for 52 years and moved here over 15 years ago. It’s cheaper here except for HOA fees. Fees used to be $125.00. They don’t call it HOA fees. There is another fee which was always included in house selling cost but not here. I call it infrastructure fee. Again it’s call something else. I think mine was around 4,000 or 14,000. Just don’t remember. Also be careful in signing contact. There is a little sentence that you that you agree to never sued them. Cross it out and initial. Construction is so sloppy and they won’t fix expensive repairs. My sewage pipe has a belly in it and collects everything until it clogs up. This pipe runs under the garage and will cost at least $5,000 to fix. Check all outlet to make sure all ground wires are connected. If they have the cheap push-pull water turn-off change them to regular water turn offs. Check to see if they really installed roof anchors in the attic to keep roof from blowing off during hurricanes. Just a few suggestions. Otherwise, this is a great place to live. Also, this place is run by a dictator. We had a really neat place for entertainment, dancing and food called Katy Bells. He closed it. Our country clubs are joke unless you are a golfer. Good junk food and beer after game. Don’t think our golf courses are in great shape. It’s what I hear. I am not a golfer. Love it here. Most neighbors are nice. There is a group for everyone. We have over 3,000 groups. If not one for you, then you can start one. There are plenty of fun things to do. The entertainment at the squares shut down at 9:00. We like it here. There is many, many places to visit in Florida.
