[quote=earlyretirement]Just an update. I went ahead and paid off both CFD’s a few weeks ago. The CFD #4 (Poway Unified) came in around $15,000.
And the CFD #2 for Santaluz fortunately came in at the lower end of their previous estimate of $45,000 to $50,000. I had to pay $500 to get an exact payoff and a few days later they emailed me an exact payoff. It came in about $46,000.
It will be a great feeling to be done with these Mello Roos taxes. We definitely will stay in our house for the long run so this seems to be a no brainer.[/quote]
For you, ~$61K is a little over ten years of paying MR by the month. I guess if you’re SURE you’ll be there at least that long, then you definitely got a discount by paying it off early.
Not sure if your early payoff will affect your resale value, though.
