Jon's Current Read

"Hunt Club Groves is a Lennar single-family master plan in Lake Wales, so the read is a new-construction read: builder incentives and base pricing set the entry, while the long-run carrying cost is the combination of the Community Development District assessment and the HOA dues on top of the mortgage. The Hunt Club Grove CDD was established by City of Lake Wales ordinance in January 2023 (Hunt Club Grove CDD district information, 2026), which means a non ad valorem assessment funds the community infrastructure and shows up on the annual tax bill, so confirm the per parcel amount before you fall for the incentive. The draw is brand-new construction with a clubhouse, pool, and sport courts on former Hunt Bros. citrus grove land near Highway 17 and State Road 60, with historic downtown Lake Wales and Bok Tower Gardens close by. The work is the diligence: read the CDD assessment, the HOA dues and what they cover, and the resale comps for the exact floor plan before you sign."

Jon Brooks, founder, Momentum Realty · Updated June 2026

The 60-Second Overview

Hunt Club Groves is a Lennar single-family new-home community in Lake Wales, Polk County (Lennar community pages, 2026). The name references the historical Hunt Bros. citrus packinghouse, a Lake Wales institution that packed its last carton in 2022 after nearly a century, and the orange groves that surrounded the site (Citrus Industry Magazine and Daily Ridge, 2022). Confirm the exact section, phase, and address for any specific home.

Listing and builder guides describe several home collections with floor plans roughly in the range of about 1,487 to 2,451 square feet on a mix of lot sizes, sold across collections such as the Estate Key, Cottage, Majors, and Manor Key lines (Lennar and NewHomeSource, 2026). Confirm the exact square footage, bedroom count, lot, and collection for any specific home, since the active inventory changes.

Because this is an active new-build community, the money math is the builder price plus the carrying cost. The community sits inside the Hunt Club Grove Community Development District, established by City of Lake Wales ordinance in January 2023 (Hunt Club Grove CDD, 2026), so a non ad valorem CDD assessment funds the infrastructure and appears on the annual tax bill, on top of the HOA dues administered for the Hunt Club at Lake Wales HOA. Confirm the current CDD assessment and HOA dues per parcel before you buy.

The pitch is a brand-new home with community amenities near Lake Wales. Builder and community guides describe a clubhouse, swimming pool, and sport courts, with historic downtown Lake Wales, Bok Tower Gardens, and the Highway 17 and State Road 60 corridors close by. The work is the diligence: read the CDD assessment, the HOA dues and what they cover, and the resale comps before you sign.

Tight supply and strong demand favor sellers here. Homes still take about two months to sell, though, and with asking prices running above recent sales per square foot, a prepared buyer has room on anything overpriced. Reading each home against the real comps, not the headline trend, is where the edge is.

The 1-year price change is the median sold price over the most recent year versus the prior year, the same measure most listing sites and local Realtor reports use. It reflects the mix of homes that sold, not the change in any single home's value, which is why median price per square foot is shown alongside it to adjust for home size. In thinly traded neighborhoods, where a sale or two can swing the median, we lead with the mix-resistant price-per-square-foot trend instead.

Hunt Club Groves is a Lennar single-family master-planned community rather than a single building, so the lifestyle is new-construction suburban living near Lake Wales. Builder and community guides describe shared amenities including a clubhouse, swimming pool, and sport courts, with historic downtown Lake Wales, Bok Tower Gardens, and the Highway 17 and State Road 60 corridors close by. Amenity availability, pet rules, and dues vary by phase and by the HOA, so confirm the current rules, the CDD assessment, and what each home includes with the builder and the HOA before you buy.

Governance
City of Lake Wales establishes the Hunt Club Grove CDD
The Hunt Club Grove Community Development District was established by City of Lake Wales Ordinance No. 2023-01, with a district establishment date of January 17, 2023, to plan, acquire, operate, and maintain community-wide infrastructure through non ad valorem assessments. Why it matters: The CDD assessment funds the community infrastructure and shows up on the annual tax bill, so the per parcel amount is core diligence for any buyer. Source

History
Hunt Bros. citrus packinghouse closes in Lake Wales
The family-owned Hunt Bros. citrus packinghouse in Lake Wales closed after nearly a century, packing its last carton in 2022, with the lingering effects of Hurricane Irma on the company groves cited as a key factor. Why it matters: The community name and site trace to the historic Hunt Bros. groves, part of the broader shift from citrus land to residential development in Lake Wales. Source

The Strategy

The Hunt Club Groves buying strategy.

If we were buying in Hunt Club Groves, this is the order of operations we would run, and the one we run for our clients.

Read the CDD assessment first. The Hunt Club Grove CDD adds a non ad valorem assessment to the annual tax bill, so confirm the per parcel amount and term before you weigh the builder incentive.

Confirm the HOA dues and what they cover. The Hunt Club at Lake Wales HOA sets the dues that fund the amenities, so get the current amount and inclusions in writing.

Pin down the collection and floor plan. Pricing and square footage vary widely across the Estate Key, Cottage, Majors, and Manor Key lines, so confirm the exact plan and lot.

Compare builder incentives to the all-in cost. Closing-cost credits and rate offers move the headline, but the CDD plus HOA carrying cost is the number that lasts.

Cross-shop other Polk new builds on the neighborhoods map to test whether the amenity package and pricing here are competitive.

The factors that actually move value in Hunt Club Groves, condition, lot, and the renovation math, read from current listings and recent sales.

15-Second Take

Renovation math decides the deal
Golf and lake lots resell strongest
Roof and HVAC age drive the insurance quote
Interior lots are where buyers overpay

Proprietary Data

The renovation premium.

Renovated-listing inventory in Hunt Club Groves is too thin right now to compute a reliable renovation premium. We read condition home by home against real comps before you offer.

Lot Value

The lot premium.

On golf, lake, and preserve frontage, the homesite is the part of your money the market gives back at resale. The house can be renovated; the lot cannot, so premium lots hold their value better than interior ones. How much more they command varies by frontage, view, and condition, which is why we read it home by home against real comparable sales rather than a single headline figure.

Operator Note

Most buyers overpay on interior lots in the back half of the community. A sharp renovation can distract you, but the weaker resale position follows the lot, not the finishes. We read the homesite before the kitchen.

Operator Note

The strongest value pocket is usually a renovated golf or lake home priced just under the next tier up. Buyers chasing the single biggest estate often pay estate prices for what is really a renovation project.

5 Mistakes Buyers Make in Hunt Club Groves

15-Second Take

Calling the listing agent (who works for the seller)
Misjudging the renovation budget
Overpaying for an interior lot
Ignoring the optional club cost
Skipping the roof, HVAC, and systems check

In an all-resale, seven-figure, renovation-driven market, the same five mistakes cost buyers the most. Every one is avoidable with the right preparation before you tour.

Calling the listing agent

The agent on the sign works for the seller. In a market where condition swings price by hundreds of thousands, negotiating against that agent with no one in your corner is the costliest move of all.

Misjudging the renovation math

A dated home looks like a deal until you price the roof, HVAC, pool, and full modernization honestly. Underbudget the reno and the bargain becomes the expensive house.

Overpaying for an interior lot

Golf frontage, lakefront, and preserve lots carry real, durable premiums. Pay an estate price for an interior lot and you are buying the weakest version of the value.

Ignoring the club decision

The club is optional and separate, so two similar homes can cost very differently to own. Buyers who do not price the membership they will actually use misread their real monthly number.

Skipping the systems check

A 1990s home means 1990s-era systems unless updated. Roof age, HVAC age, pool equipment, and prior renovations drive both price and insurability, and a thorough inspection matters more here than in a new build.

“

Hunt Club Groves is a new Lennar community, not a finished resale neighborhood. The deal is won or lost on the builder price, the CDD assessment, the HOA dues, and the resale read.

15-Second Take

In a new build, the lot and floor plan set value
Premium lots and right-sized plans hold value best
Confirm the CDD assessment and term per parcel
Read the HOA dues before you read the finishes
Add CDD plus HOA to the mortgage for the real cost

In a new-build community, the part of your money the market protects is the lot and the floor plan, plus how the all-in carrying cost compares to fresh builder inventory. A right-sized plan on a good lot with a documented assessment holds value better than an oversized plan facing a heavy combined CDD and HOA cost. The interior can be upgraded; the lot, the location, and the assessment cannot. Read the CDD assessment, the HOA dues, and the resale comps first, then price the plan and condition against them.

CDD Assessment, HOA Dues & Carrying Cost

15-Second Take

Read the CDD assessment amount and term, not just the HOA dues
Confirm the HOA dues and what the amenities cost to run
Add the CDD plus HOA to the mortgage for the real carrying cost
Verify both per parcel from the current community documents
Carry your own homeowner and any flood coverage as needed

This community sits inside the Hunt Club Grove Community Development District, established by City of Lake Wales ordinance in January 2023, so a non ad valorem CDD assessment funds the infrastructure and appears on the annual tax bill, separate from the HOA. On top of that, the Hunt Club at Lake Wales HOA charges dues that fund the amenities and common areas. The CDD assessment and the HOA dues together, not the dues line alone, tell the real carrying cost. Confirm both per parcel from the current community documents.

HOA dues on a Lennar community like this generally cover the common-area maintenance and the shared amenities such as the clubhouse, pool, and sport courts, while the CDD assessment funds and maintains the community infrastructure such as roads and stormwater. Owners still carry their own homeowner insurance. Verify exactly what the HOA dues cover, what the CDD assessment funds and for how long, and what each owner must pay separately.

In Hunt Club Groves, condition and view decide your number

Because buyers here are weighing your home against renovated comps and cross-shopping Lake Wales new-build peers, a home priced to the community average instead of its true condition and view either leaves money on the table or sits. A renovated kitchen, newer roof and HVAC, and a golf or lake view all deserve to show up in your price, and a buyer pool reading renovation math needs to be shown why your home is worth it. We build that case with real comps and a pricing strategy for the current market.
