Buying new construction without leaving money on the table

Builders in these communities are competing on incentives — rate buydowns, closing-cost credits, and price adjustments. The right comparison is never sticker price: a $20,000 rate buydown and a $20,000 price cut produce different monthly payments. Run the actual trade with our builder incentive calculator before you sign.

The two costs new-construction buyers miss

First, property taxes: year one is often billed on the unimproved lot, then the assessment resets to your purchase price — model the real year-two bill with the property tax after purchase calculator. Second, CDD bonds: many new communities carry a community development district assessment on the tax bill for decades. Ask for the CDD annual amount and remaining term in writing, and always use your own inspector at the pre-drywall and final stages — builder warranties are not a substitute.

What it costs to own here

At Orange County’s typical combined millage of 16.67 mills, a purchase at $778,000 (the median across these Winter Park new construction communities) generates roughly $12,972 a year in property tax before exemptions — about $1,081 a month. Florida resets the assessed value to roughly your purchase price, so the seller’s current bill is not a preview of yours; a homesteaded owner then gets the $25,000–$50,000 exemption and the 3% Save Our Homes cap going forward. Citizens Property Insurance policies in Orange County average about $1,409 a year ($117 a month) — private-market quotes vary with roof age and wind mitigation, so price coverage before your inspection window closes. All-in, our county model puts the typical monthly cost of ownership in Orange County near $2,402 (principal and interest on the typical home, tax, and insurance).

Run your exact numbers: the property tax after purchase calculator uses Orange County’s verified millage, and the buyer closing costs calculator builds the full cash-to-close.
