Trade northern winters for affordable Florida living. Grab the free 55+ Home Buyer's Guide and you'll know exactly what it costs, how it works, and how to buy — even from up north.
What you'll really pay each month:
lot rent, fees, insurance, and utilities
Leased-land vs. co-op:
explained simply, so you know what you're buying
How to buy from out of state:
virtual tours, paperwork, and timing
A current list of available homes:
with photos and prices



Written the way we'd explain it to a friend before they buy — no jargon, no pressure, and built for buyers coming from out of state.
Leased-land vs. co-op ownership
The single most important decision before you buy. We explain both in plain English — upfront cost, monthly cost, who controls the fees, and where you build equity — so you know exactly what you're buying.
The real monthly costs
Far more than the price tag. See the typical Manatee County ranges for lot rent, insurance, utilities, and taxes — plus the smart questions to ask — so your budget is built on real numbers, not guesses.
A guided look at all four communities
Pescara Lake, Swan Lake Village, Country Lakes Village, and Country Lakes II — each one's personality, location, and who it suits best, so you can start picturing where you'll call home.
