Why is the bond the same for new area?
We are looking at houses in the new southern area...the bond is the same approx. $30K vs. the other previous areas. With the county paying for the roads in the new area (thus 25% tax increase), why has the bond stayed the same when the developer isn’t incurring that massive cost??

We all know that the county are the taxpayers!

Bonds are for the developer to recoup costs of building amenities, planting flowers, etc. At least that's what I was told when I bought.

Bingo. |
The bonds are $30K in the newer areas? WOW, they were only in the low $20K above 466A for a designer home. Am I right?

I imagine the increased cost of the bond relates to the increased costs of labor and materials for developing all the infrastructure WITHIN the new villages in the newer developments.

The real question is, "How does the Developer get by without disclosing the amount of the bond when he advertises house prices?" Isn't this deceptive advertising?
A prospective buyer, comparing advertised prices of houses in The Villages versus other retirement communities, has no way of knowing that the Developer is understating the real price of new houses by as much $33,000 (or more when you consider the interest and "administration" fee). |
