We own a "Gardenia" designer home (2000 sq ft). As landlords who reserve the month of January for ourselves our monthly expenses for lawn, golf cart ins, homeowners, management (Villagers Homewatch), cable/phone/internet, electricity, gas, water, sewer, irrigation, trash, amenities fees, and RE taxes is approx. $1000. This does not include bond or mortgage payments. Last year we rented all months except June, August, and Sept. This year looks like it will be about the same (too early to say for sure). We already have Feb & March 2012 rented. Expenses above did not include cleaning fee, but we charge each tenant for that in addition to their rent.
Hope this info helps you, feel free request more info from us.
