The patio villas will definitely be the cheapest. They use to make a 1 bed/1bath house that you could get for about $160,000 a few years ago. Probably $220-240k now if they still build them. A 2 bedroom might still be under $300k. To get one of these you need to have an agent ready to pounce the second one comes available or you won’t get it. Used ones might be available as well. A Courtyard Villa is nice and a step up. Built of brick instead of wood but they cost a little more.

Bonds are less in Villa neighborhoods. More house per feet of roadway. On a certain length of road you might have only 6 designer homes vs 10 villas for the same length of road. So $10000/6 or 10000/10 to set bond amounts.
