What should you know before buying in Aviary at Rutland Ranch?
- Compare new and resale. A new home lets you choose finishes; a resale often comes with landscaping, blinds and a known CDD amount. Builder incentives can change the math, so compare both.
- Know the full monthly cost. Add the HOA, CDD and insurance to the mortgage payment.
- Check the flood zone and insurance. Homes near lakes and wetlands can sit in different flood zones. See flood zones and flood insurance in Manatee County and my homeowners insurance guide.
- Schools. For school zoning, check with the School District of Manatee County for the specific address.
- Bring your own agent to the builder. Registering your agent on your first visit to the model center helps you have someone on your side through the contract, inspections and closing.
