What gates change about ownership
Controlled access typically comes with a manned gate, a transponder system, or both — funded through HOA dues. Expect guest-access procedures, delivery and contractor rules, and in some communities rental restrictions. Review the HOA budget for how the gate and any roving patrol are funded, and whether roads are private (the HOA maintains them — another line in the dues) or public.
Due diligence before you buy behind a gate
Request the HOA documents early: budget, reserves, rules, and the last two years of meeting minutes. Private roads, gates and common areas are owner-funded, so thin reserves become special assessments. Our buyer closing costs calculator helps you model dues and assessments into the real monthly cost.
What it costs to own here
At Palm Beach County’s typical combined millage of 18.72 mills, a purchase at $638,000 (the median across these Delray Beach gated communities) generates roughly $11,943 a year in property tax before exemptions — about $995 a month. Florida resets the assessed value to roughly your purchase price, so the seller’s current bill is not a preview of yours; a homesteaded owner then gets the $25,000–$50,000 exemption and the 3% Save Our Homes cap going forward. Citizens Property Insurance policies in Palm Beach County average about $1,753 a year ($146 a month) — private-market quotes vary with roof age and wind mitigation, so price coverage before your inspection window closes. All-in, our county model puts the typical monthly cost of ownership in Palm Beach County near $2,844 (principal and interest on the typical home, tax, and insurance).
Run your exact numbers: the property tax after purchase calculator uses Palm Beach County’s verified millage, and the buyer closing costs calculator builds the full cash-to-close.

Our valuation model reads the county as overvalued by about 18.5% versus its income-and-rent fundamentals.
