Bricknj,
Don't be nervous about the bond. It is just an added expense to the home. For instance. A Camellia is selling for about 230k, just add 20k for the bond so the real price is 250K...new or old. Add more for a big view. The bond is lower on a cottage or Villa, higher on Premiers. Up north it is added in...it isn't here.
And...PTurner and all the rest are right. The older homes are about the same, they have added in the cost of what they have paid on the bond and the improvements...which may or may not be the improvements you like...Maybe you don't like orange walls.
I really feel that you will find the right one and you will be happy. I wish there were some homes on my street for sale because of course my village is the best.
Kindest wishes,
Gracie
