Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I know there are many posters here from Texas and The Woodlands specifically.
I have to spend at least 5 years with my family in the USA and "The Woodlands" keeps popping up in our search for a variety of reasons. I know RE taxes are high and I have no problem with that ( two little one's in school), but, I was shocked at homeowners insurance rates! My whole life (as a homeowner) I never paid more then $150/mth for insurance. For some reason (on Zillow) I am seeing prices of 350-600/mth. Is this normal for 250k-300k house or condo?
