[quote=The-Shoveler]Don’t know much about that area really, but in general I would recommend finding a small builder (or Spec, home in older neighborhood), That way you may be able to avoid the MR and if luckily the HOA as well and still get a newer designed home.
I have seen small builder next to the larger development (KB/LEN/Toll etc…) that go to the same schools, still walk to same parks etc.. but have no MR or HOA and sell a lot of time for a better price even (better quality of home as well).
One side of street 3K a year MR/ other side of street no MR, not fair ? maybe.[/quote]
That is how it worked in one area adjacent to 4S – the sellers advertised enjoying 4S amenities without paying 4S fees. The local schools no longer take kids from that area (part of the deal between the developer and PUSD was that only the 4S kids will be attending the local schools once the schools reach the capacity).
