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.
Flood risk shown is an area-level estimate and can differ from a specific unit's actual FEMA designation (which varies by structure and elevation). Look up this address on the FEMA Flood Map and verify with a licensed insurance agent before relying on it.
