(using approx. numbers) $20,000 bond paid over 30 years @$1100 per month = $33,000... Ouch!

I assume this is why some people choose to pay the bond off in cash. I called the Development District and there is no creative way to reduce the interest payments- it's either pay it off in full or pay it monthly.

With this in mind what is the best way to pay this bond?

Thanks,

Not sure where you got you numbers but $1100 a month can’t be in the ballpark. I pay no attention to mine, it is collected through escrow in my monthly payment and the bank pays it every year. I don’t even know I am being charged.
