HOA & CDD Breakdown

Understanding Your True Monthly Costs

CDD vs. HOA:HOA fees cover community amenities and maintenance. CDD assessments are a separate tax-like charge that pays for infrastructure built by the developer. CDDs appear on your property tax bill and are not optional.

Pro Tip:When comparing homes, calculate total monthly cost including HOA + CDD + property taxes + insurance. A lower-priced home with high fees costs more monthly than a pricier home with no HOA.
