ren, the fairways is about $130 hoa, $100 for the fairways itself and $30 for redhawk, the taxes is more complex but not high by local standards. Depending on your purchase price it can be 1.4 to 1.8, the higher the sales price, the lower the rate because some of it above the 1% is not based on value, it’s a fixed price per lot per year, so it’s impossible to look at the taxes of a 600k house and cut it in half to figure the taxes on a 300k home, but it’s close enough. The non gated redhawk tracts are about $30 a month and Morgan is a little more than $100 but with higher taxes, however morgans amenities and clubhouse are the best in the South.
Marion, just pay the taxes and hoa, live in the place you like and the one that feels right. There are hoa people and non hoa people, you and I are hoa people, pretty landscaping that someone else maintains makes us happier than saving money, just accept it and find peace in it.
