Hilton Head Island, Villas for Sale Zip Code 29928 on 2/10/14
TERM DEFINITION
Perhaps before even providing the statistics, a note about the word 'villa' should be mentioned. Around here, we don't generally use the term 'condo', and use the term townhome to delinate only the style and not the type of ownership.
The other note that bears explaining is the term 'regime'. This refers to the monthly management fees that are billed by a company that actually manages each villa complex - and in some cases, there are two 'regimes' within one particular villa community. The fees sometimes include insurance (wind & hail and flood) and sometimes there is an additional assessment that covers either the entire insurance cost or an assessment that is added in case there is an increase in the cost and there is a shortfall.
