Are there other charges/costs that I should take into consideration?
I am not a resident yet -I bought a lot in Buttonwood and am pending the sale of my home before ordering my new home. I think the numbers they list are as close as they can get from what I have found out.
Remember they are using a 250,000 home as the standard for the estimate.

The last entry I believe CDD is the bond ..Its paid off over 30years at a fixed interest rate. The Bond is determind by the type and number of homes in your development. For Ex. I am ordering a designer as I said in Buttonwood
My bond is $19.601 .

hope that helps a little ---I am not a expert on this but am trying to get things lined up for my move

If I am not correct I am sure others will let you know --lol

Good Luck
