Ryan's Take
HOA and CDD fees vary enormously.
In 55+ communities, the delta between total monthly costs (HOA + CDD + amenity fees) can be $300–$800/month for similar homes in different communities. Solivita, Heritage Isle, and Del Webb each have different CDD structures. Ryan builds a full cost comparison — purchase price, property tax, HOA, CDD, and amenity fees — so you're comparing total cost of ownership, not just list price.
