Save Big with a 15-Year Tax Abatement
One of the most impactful benefits of buying in The Circle East District is its 15-year, 100% tax abatement on the value of the home. This means homeowners only pay property taxes on the land—offering dramatic long-term savings.
Example:
- Property tax without abatement: ~$11,557/year
- Property tax with abatement: ~$290/year
Estimated savings over 15 years: $150,000+
This abatement gives buyers more room in their budgets for other life priorities, while increasing the overall value of their investment.
Affordable Monthly Payments Without Sacrificing Quality
Buyers may qualify to purchase a home priced around $399,900 with the same monthly cost as a $260,000 home in another neighborhood.
With no PMI, energy-efficient designs, and lower utility bills due to solar panels, the total cost of ownership remains comfortably low—while the quality and sustainability remain high.
