Cost of ownership · DRE #01280377
Bighorn, Madison, and Vintage, line by line
A first-year ownership picture needs a purchase price, property tax, HOA, club initiation if the buyer is joining, annual dues, and insurance. The only dollar amount on this worksheet that comes from a club’s own public page is Bighorn’s initiation fee, read October 26, 2026. Every other input is blank, so this page does not print a total.
