What the gate costs and what it actually does

A gate is an HOA amenity, so it shows up in dues: an unmanned keypad or transponder gate adds little; a 24-hour manned gate is a six-figure annual staffing line shared by the homeowners, and the roads behind it are usually private, which means the association, not the county, pays to repave them. Ask for the current HOA budget and reserve study, whether the roads are private, and whether a gate or road assessment is pending. The MLS field records the gate, not its staffing, so confirm which kind it is before you value it. Our true cost of ownership calculator puts HOA dues, taxes and insurance into one monthly number.

Questions to ask about any gated-community listing

Is the gate manned, and during what hours? Are the roads private, and what do the reserves look like for repaving? What are the HOA dues today and what did they run three years ago? Is there a CDD or a special assessment on the books? What are the guest-access and delivery rules? A local agent who works the community will know which gates are staffed and which associations are underfunded.
