The $1,627 is the annual bond payment on your home. That is a strange name for it, though, and certainly could be confusing. This pays off the cost of the initial infrastructure for your section...roads, sidewalks, utilities, common areas, etc.

The $693 maintenance is for the maintenance of the infrastructure and common areas.

Both of these items are collected/paid for as part of your property tax bill which comes out around Nov 1.

Hmmm, I'm in CDD6 and our maintenance assessment is $500. Wonder why yours is so much higher? Are you in a designer or premier neighborhood?
