I drove through the neighborhood I want to get in and happened to talk to a man on his driveway. He said they love it and that the H.O.A. takes care of all the yard work. There are other amenities and the fee is around $160-180/month.
At this point in my life, I’m fine with it, despite my frugality. I do value trading money for free time. Growing up, my parents spent all their free time maintaining the property. I’m not ready for that 😅
