In most areas up north the infrastructure is in the price of the home. Here it is the bond. So if a builder in the north builds 10 houses and he wants to sell them for $500,000 but he spent $100,000 puting in sidewalks, sewer, water, and other infrastructure for the development he would sell each house for $510,000. In TV they sell the house for $500,000 and you pay a $10,000 bond.
