Where can we find it without calling a realtor? Where do they get it from?
Isn't it a public record? Thanks in advance for your help.

After you have looked up the address in the Sumter County Property Appraiser page you will then need to go to the upper right side of the page and click on retrieve tax record. This will bring up the tax record on the property. If you look under Non-Ad Valorem Assessments you will see a number of assessments One may be for fire, another for maintenance and then another one that I believe is the yearly bond assessment. If you take this number and multiply it by 30 you will get what the total bond on the property is including interest.
This number is what the owner is currently paying. You can then look at the tax history and see the payment history as to how many years the owner has been paying deduct that from the total to get a balance. Also you can use the year the home was built for the number of years the owner has been paying.
I know that does not give you the bond on new homes but let me do some searching and see if I can come up with something.
