What does it cost each month to own in Lake Forest, before the mortgage?
HOA and property tax come to about $573 a month at the medians (property tax median $3,150 a year). Insurance and the mortgage come on top. Property tax resets after a sale under Florida's homestead rules, so a buyer's bill can be higher than the seller's.
