This is the way I see it........In most everywhere else the cost of roads, sewers, water lines etc is included in the price of the home. Here it is billed separate and called a bond. In otherwords here you buy a 300,000 home for 280,000 and have a 20,000 bond that you pay for yearly or pay off all at once.
By doing it this way your home is only valued at 280,000 and this is the amount on which you pay taxes, saving you taxes on 20,000. Of course this is also an advantage to The Villages since they can give you more home for what seems like a cheaper price.
As I said, this is how I see it and I hope others will correct me if I'm wrong.
