Generally speaking, the older the home, the lower the bond. There are exceptions because some pay their bonds in full early in ownership. If they do so, they usually expect to recoup that in the selling price, though that does not always happen.

I think I am correct in saying Lake County homes do not have a bond. Most TV homes are in Sumter County and some in Marion County. Get the $5.00 map at the sales office and get your bearings. That should help you a lot with locating where you want to be. You can also get a map from AAA.

Be sure to have an MLS agent in addition to a TV sales rep. They cannot sell each other's listings. Tell each agent exactly what you want. I did. The MLS agent found it for us.
