My simple question is this: We've seen several really nice properties that promote the fact that they're "NO BOND". As if it was some huge savings or advantage. I just want to know: "What is the average real-world saving on a property with a bond vs. no-bond?"
The sales brochures shows the monthly fees as "bond+maintenance+fire" so you can't gauge what percentage each makes up.
I totally understand the concept of the bond and I totally understand why each "Villages" bond may differ in terms of price. But we're merely trying to ascertain if a property being highly-promoted as "NO BOND" is really that significant and should be given priority in our choices.
Can anybody please answer this question honestly? My assigned realtor can't or won't.

Forget about the bond price and look at the bottom line. New house + Bond = Full Cost of house. No bond house is the full contracted price of house.
