I live in the UK. When I see programmes about people thinking of buying houses in the USA I am amazed that houses in desirable areas such as Florida seem to be so cheap to buy. Big houses, small price.
There must be a catch somewhere, or Americans would buy up all the houses advertised at a bargain price.
All I can think of is that there expensive hidden charges, such as the cost of repairing the roads and footpaths outside the Florida homes. And high charges for other services, like water, gas, electricity, phones, as well as compulsory fees for maintaining individual gardens and communal grassed areas and flower beds.
I am sure that lots of people will be able to tell me whether it is cheap or expensive to live in Florida, once the house itself has been paid for.
