Geesh, I'm obviously paying a whole lot less for condo insurance, some of it is indirectly through the HOA of course.
HOA is $425, which includes landscaping, internet, TV, infrastructure, and other odds and ends.
Property taxes are $3,300 or so. For the year, with all included, we're about $13,500.00.
We were paying $17K in property taxes up North, plus HOA ($265), internet ($55) and cable ($125).
I find this place to be a bargain, all things considered.
Car insurance is also very high. $2,200/year for one car that is 10 years old. Mostly liability.
Plus, we have to carry 300/300 to meet the umbrella requirements for the car, boat and home. That adds up too.
