What to Know Before You Buy in a 55+ Community
- Age-restricted vs. age-targeted. An age-restricted (55+) community follows the federal Housing for Older Persons Act: at least 80% of occupied homes must have at least one resident 55 or older. An age-targeted community is marketed to older buyers but anyone can buy. Every community on this page is age-restricted unless noted.
- HOA and CDD costs. Most 55+ communities have HOA dues that cover the clubhouse, amenities and often lawn care. Many newer Northeast Florida communities also carry CDD assessments on the tax bill. Always compare the total yearly cost, not just the price.
- New construction vs. resale. New homes let you pick the plan and finishes; resales are often move-in ready with landscaping and upgrades already done. Tanya compares both for you.
- Register your agent first. Many builders require your agent to register you or attend your first sales-center visit. Call Tanya before you tour so you keep your own representation.
- Florida homestead exemption. If the home is your permanent residence, you may qualify for Florida’s homestead exemption, which can lower your property taxes. File with the county property appraiser.
- Flood zone and insurance. Ask for the flood zone and get insurance quotes before your inspection period ends.
