No, none of us had to do that before. The cost of the infrastructure was part of the advertised sale price of the house in the other parts of the country.

The bond price is simple information to absorb. I think the simplest way to figure the bond on a property is this. A property selling for $229 has a bond of approximately 22 thousand. A property selling for $560 has a bond of approximatly 56 thousand. It is easy to figure. Add about ten percent to a new home for the pipes and the wires and the pools and the golfcart paths and the streets and the streetlights and the golf courses and the pickleball courts etc. etc. (The Republican editorials in the local newspaper are extra) Had to throw that in to see if you all were paying attention. .

Once you get over the hump of adding that price to the sale price of the home you can move on with your life.

And enjoy the beautiful weather as we are all doing.
