Thanks for the replies. I agree the neighborhood seem to be not as nice. This place kind stands out. I looked at the houses available in same area, they do seem to have better value considering there is no HOA. The reason I consider Sunset Cove is because I am a single girl and this is going to be my first place, I worry about the work thats involved with older houses. The repair and maintanence…I am really not that handy. And dont want to spend that much time on cutting grass..worry about roof replacement…other parts of house that might break down…etc.
It seems like HOA has been brought up many times. Is it really much more expensive to pay HOA vs repair house yourself? What kind rules can they restrict me with? Its my own place after all right..I mean how much saying are they going to have on what I do in my own place?
