What if the country club did not come with a six-figure check?

Two bedrooms, three baths, seventeen hundred and fifty-four square feet, and a golf course out the back. Listed at $450,000, it comes furnished, and you can see it now.

Here is the part almost nobody asks about until they are three communities into their search. Boca Delray Golf and Country Club does not require you to buy a membership. You can play or you can not play, and either way you are not writing an equity check just to live here. My husband is a PGA professional, so let me be fair about it - for someone who plays four times a week a mandatory membership can be the right deal and I will tell you so. For everybody else it is a bill that shows up whether or not you pick up a club.
