Home and flood insurance
The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Saint Lucie County is $2,332/yr (2,890 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $1,500–$2,500/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote).
Roof and age
Built in 2025. A newer roof and current wind-mitigation features usually mean the lower end of insurance quotes; ask for the wind-mitigation form.
Estimated ownership costs
Estimated costs & disclosures
Estimated ownership costs for general information. Confirm each with the county, your lender, and an insurer. See data & estimate notes.
Property tax (first-year est.)
~$5,880/yr
Estimate: a typical St. Lucie effective rate applied to the list price before any exemptions. Florida bills change with reassessment, homestead and other exemptions, and local taxing districts — this is not your expected bill. Confirm with the county property appraiser.
CDD assessment
None on record
No CDD assessment appears in our records for this community. CDD assessments show on the county tax bill — confirm with the tax collector.
Insurance (illustrative range)
$2k–$2k/yr
An illustrative modeled range, not based on carrier underwriting and not a quote. Florida premiums vary significantly by roof age, wind-mitigation features, claims history, and carrier — a real quote can land well outside this range.

The Messtimate™
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
$425,088the mess$598,272
Stronger local evidence — 6 comparable closed sales in VERANO SOUTH PUD 1 - POD, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $559,990 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 41% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
Condition & finishes — as new construction, builder upgrades and finish level aren't in a sq ft number.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
Carrying costs & concessions — this home carries HOA dues of $603/mo; with insurance and any seller-paid buydown, that changes what a buyer actually pays, and a sq ft estimate ignores all of it.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
This home: 67 days on market vs. a 59-day community median
14 active listings competing, 4 under contract
≈8.0 months of supply
12 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $559,990 ($285/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Oct 2026 · Development
Port St. Lucie board considers rezoning for up to 1,200 homes at Wilson Grove
The Planning and Zoning Board took up a rezoning of nearly 360 acres of agricultural land north of SW Becker Road, between SW Sundance Vista Boulevard and Rangeline Road, to a master planned unit development. The concept plan allows up to 1,200 homes plus parks, lakes and clubhouses. City Council would vote later in October.
Why it matters: Up to 1,200 new homes in western Port St. Lucie would add housing supply and increase traffic demand on Becker Road. The project is about 9 miles northwest of Verano South Pud 1 Pod, elsewhere in St. Lucie County.
Federal government awards $79 million for St. Lucie River Bridge replacement in Stuart; Brightline station grant denied
The century-old St. Lucie River Bridge replacement received $79 million in federal funding. The federal Intercity Passenger Rail Program did not fund a proposed Brightline station in downtown Stuart. Martin County said it welcomed the bridge funding.
Why it matters: Bridge replacement funding supports a key rail and river crossing, while the denied grant leaves the timing of a Stuart passenger rail stop uncertain. The site is about 6 miles east of Verano South Pud 1 Pod.
St. Lucie County reviews updated Port of Fort Pierce master plan with mega-yacht marina and spaceport recovery facility
The 2026 master plan for the Port of Fort Pierce proposes a mega-yacht marina, a spaceport recovery facility, expanded boat ramps and restaurants, with a marine commercial district at Harbour Pointe. County officials say nearly 15,000 registered boats compete for 147 trailer parking spaces near the inlet. The plan is under county review and Fort Pierce holds final approval.
Why it matters: Added boat ramp parking and marine commercial space would expand waterfront access and dining options near the Fort Pierce Inlet over a multi-year timeline. The project is about 20 miles north of Verano South Pud 1 Pod, elsewhere in St. Lucie County.
St. Lucie Public Schools broke ground on July 28, 2026 on a 70 million dollar K-8 school behind Dan McCarty Middle School in Fort Pierce, with capacity for 1,500 to 1,800 students and completion expected in August 2028. The school will consolidate Dan McCarty Middle, St. Lucie Elementary, and Lawnwood Elementary, all built in the 1950s and 1960s. The district plans to sell the three existing school properties to offset costs.
Why it matters: The consolidated campus adds modern school capacity in northern Fort Pierce and frees three older school sites for potential reuse. The project is about 18 miles north of Verano South Pud 1 Pod, elsewhere in St. Lucie County.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 8194 SW Vanita Way and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 8194 SW Vanita Way was built in 2025 and has 1,968 sq ft of living area, 2 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 8194 SW Vanita Way in?
8194 SW Vanita Way is in Verano South Pud 1 - Pod in Port St. Lucie, St. Lucie County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 8194 SW Vanita Way have an HOA, and how much are the dues?
The listing reports HOA dues of $603 per month. Dues, what they cover, and the community's rules should be confirmed from the association's current documents before relying on them.
Why might property taxes on 8194 SW Vanita Way differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $5,880 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 8194 SW Vanita Way in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.

Opinion & estimate — do not rely on this page. Any figure on this page that is not a verbatim fact from the listing or a public record — including estimated property taxes, insurance, CDD/HOA amounts, mortgage payments, comparable-sales summaries, and market statistics — is an opinion and estimate provided for general informational purposes only. These figures may be inaccurate or out of date, are not appraisals, valuations, or financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and should not be relied upon. Do not make any purchase, offer, financing, or other decision based on this page. Independently verify everything — price, square footage, lot size, year built, taxes, CDD/HOA, flood status, school assignments, permits, and community rules — with the listing broker, the county, your lender, a licensed inspector, an insurer, and your own advisors before acting.
Estimate methodology.
