    Orange County commissioners approve Tuscana land use plan in Shingle Creek Basin on 4-3 vote

    Commissioners voted 4-3 to approve the Tuscana land use application from Shingle Creek Co-Owners LLC and Geyer Development, reversing a unanimous rejection in May 2025. The plan includes more than 1,000 hotel rooms, about 4,000 apartments and commercial buildings, with conditions for a raised road, flood mitigation and wetland protection. The developer projects thousands of jobs at full build-out.

    What it may mean for the marketThe approval could add substantial rental housing, hotel capacity and commercial space in the Shingle Creek area, while flood-mitigation conditions will shape how and when it is built. The site is about 9 miles northwest of Buena Lago.

    CFX holds public meetings on 14-mile toll road through part of Split Oak Forest

    The Central Florida Expressway Authority held public meetings on Sept. 16 and 17 for a 14-mile road from State Road 417 near Boggy Creek Road in Orange County to Nova Road in Osceola County. CFX says portions could begin construction next year and that the road would ease traffic on Narcoossee Road. The agency faces a legal challenge from Orange County and is pursuing an eminent domain case.

    What it may mean for the marketIf built, the road would add a new east-west route between Lake Nona and St. Cloud, changing commute options and access to east Orange and Osceola land. The site is about 10 miles northeast of Buena Lago.

    What it may mean for the marketThe project would add visitor attractions, dining and roughly 200 jobs near the State Road 535 corridor, with added traffic and parking demand nearby. The site is about 12 miles northwest of Buena Lago.

If we were buying in Buena Lago today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Come strong and clean. Homes here move, so lead with your best terms and financing ready rather than a low anchor.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Buena Lago.

A closer look at the Buena Lago market

At a median of $212 per square foot, Buena Lago prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.

Inventory runs at 1.9 months of supply, a seller-leaning market and the trailing-12-month median up 2% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 54 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.

The housing stock is 304 homes built between 2023 and 2024, and 42% of parcels are homesteaded — the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Buena Lago. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
