Are the prices you are mentioning for new homes with bond included? Otherwise it can be deceiving!! >
The Villages Rep was showing us homes for $180,000, but when I asked about closing costs, they mentioned (for the first time) that with bond and closing costs, the price would be $212,000.
We bought a resale with bond paid. Other houses on the same street still have a $7,000 bond unpaid. It can be a bit deceiving at first when comparing prices.
