I would like to know some up to date facts on all theses recurring fees for Sumpter county.
Also there have been some horror stories about insurance costs and availability.
Are any of the major insurors writing policies for TV, or is it a state pool?
I'm beginning to have second thoughts about buying.

Lived in S. Florida and in TV. Taxes are very consistent throughout Florida. We were paying around 4K for a 380K home in S. Florida and now pay around 2K for a home appraised around 275K. Property taxes in Florida are capped for increases IF you own the home and it is homesteaded. Amenity fees are around $175 a month and also can not be raised over inflation rates. Insurance is $1200 now for 300K policy. No control over that but would not surprised if I get premium in the 3K range 2-3 years from now. Good luck.
