Again, not looking for exact costs, just trying to work up the reasonable monthly costs based on the knowledge base and experience of present "Villagers".

We own a 2/2 Courtyard Villa 1132 sq ft. and we're snowbirds.
The non-negotiables are:
Property tax - depends on the county's assessment of your property. Our taxes are 2850/yr.
Homeowner Insurance - $1274/yr, W new company as of 9/28/24, original roof, no inspection required, full coverage.
CDD payment - ~$250/month includes water, sewer, and trash pickup 2x/week.
Electric - (no gas in my neck of the woods) $75/mo
And bc we're snowbirds gotta have internet to monitor our thermostat, cameras etc $56/mo.
Wish I wanted to live here full-time w how inexpensive it can be.
