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.
Oh BTW I need another 32K to close the deal? WHAT? You weren't aware that the area had a bond? I know unless you're in the "Historical District" that bonds are common knowledge. Talk about a rude awakening. Geez
