Default High amenities fee

We just got our utilities bill and the amenities portion went up to $157.03. Did I miss a memo some place? Thanks

Default Do a search…..

Do fees/HOA dues remain the same or do they change over time?

Even more

Instead of making you play the guessing game by making you scroll through the links, here is your answer:

The amenities fee increase annually at the anniversary of the purchase. It increases at the CPI urban rate.

The CPI has several rates, the urban rate is most commonly called 'The CPI' as most Americans live in urban centers.

It actually took me less time to answer you than scold you by providing the links of a search, how novel!

My bad, people. Looked at my bill more carefully and they added a mysterious “late fee” they said someone would call back to figure it out. We have auto deduct. Sorry I was confused about the amenity fee

Yeah, they keep going up, but not at an unreasonable rate. Find another place where you get as much for your amenity or condo fees as you do in The Villages.

Just goes to show you have to really watch every bill whether it comes by postal mail or just on the internet and use auto deduct

Every year in January the amenity fee adjusts on all homes sold in that year $164 this year for all homes sold in this year. Has nothing to do with where you live. Yours will adjust from where you start on your purchase date. By CPI
