Total association fees sums the core association dues the MLS feed provides (HOA, condo/master association, and land lease), normalized to a yearly figure. These are separate from and additional to specialty charges — mandatory club or food-and-beverage minimums, special assessments, and rec-lease fees — which the IDX feed does not carry. Always confirm the full fee schedule with the HOA or listing agent.
