What it costs to hold
Sub-community assessment
Two records agree exactly: $1,010 a month under the HOA name "Casa Cardonal", or about $12,120 a year. A third record at $860 under "The Cardonal Villas" carries no billing frequency and is excluded.
Two agreeing figures is better evidence than most Diamante addresses offer, but note the two HOA names. Establish which entity bills your villa, and whether a pre-construction unit is billed at the same rate as a delivered one.

Golf β a $100,000 initiation, often already paid
The Diamante Golf Club covers the Davis Love III Dunes Course, the Tiger Woods El Cardonal (PGA Tour host since 2023) and the Oasis twelve-hole par-three. Initiation is stated in MLS as $100,000, and many listings advertise it as included in the price. Annual dues are not published β nor are the resale conveyance terms.
