The Golf Structure Nobody Explains Properly

Soleil Laurel Canyon is adjacent to the Fairways of Canton, an 18-hole golf course owned by the City of Canton and leased to a management company on a 15-year lease. Soleil homeowners are NOT financially responsible for the course — this is a critical distinction from communities where residents pay golf overhead through their HOA whether they play or not. Residents can play at a discounted daily fee and drive golf carts through the community to the course.

This structure is better than most communities where golf is “included” because the community’s HOA finances are not exposed to golf course losses. The course exists, residents benefit, but the financial risk sits with the city and the lease operator.

Cherokee County tax advantageCherokee County’s effective property tax rate (~0.79%) is among the lowest in the Atlanta 55+ market. On a $550K home that’s approximately $4,345/yr vs Spalding County’s ~$7,810/yr for the same value. 20-year difference: approximately $69,300.
