Buy a home in The Links at The Strand with McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008. Ten MLS sales plan by plan, the fee, the club, the roof and the flood map read before you offer. Call (239) 287-5873.
Updated September 2026 · By Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, Domain Realty
Buying a home in The Links at The Strand takes four decisions before an offer: which plan and which fairway view fit you, because Links prices sort by plan and view; what the roof's age means when the roof is yours; whether the home's address point sits in FEMA's Zone AH; and how the unpublished association fee, the $4,162 club dues and your reset property taxes add up.
The Links at The Strand is 54 detached pool homes on Fairway Court, a cul-de-sac in the northwest corner of The Strand, the gated golf community at Immokalee Road and I-75 in North Naples, ZIP 34110. Every home faces hole 4, 5 or 6 of the club's Savannah nine. Our complete guide to The Links at The Strand covers its history, the 2000 declaration, the amenities, the schools and the road projects nearby. This page is for the buyer: what sold and for how much, which plan and view fit, what you will pay every year, which rules decide whether a Links home works for you, which documents Florida law puts in your hands, and how we negotiate here. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 or Jesse McGreevy at (239) 898-6072 whenever you want to talk it through.

The ten Links homes sold in five years were two-bedroom-plus-den, three-bedroom-plus-den, four-bedroom and four-bedroom-plus-den plans of 2,091 to 3,300 square feet of living area. In 2026 the two-bedroom-plus-den sold at $925,000 and the three-bedroom-plus-den homes at $1,135,000 to $1,500,000. Your plan sets your budget; your fairway sets where in the band you land.
The Links declaration makes the roof, the exterior paint and the pool the owner's, and it requires the owner to insure the whole house. On homes completed from 2000 to 2003, ask for the roof's permit date and any master association approval before you fall for the kitchen, because the roof drives your insurance premium.
Section 10.3 of the recorded declaration says "There shall be no restrictions on transfers of Lots." You do not apply to the association, wait for a board or pay an application fee to buy a Links home; the seller notifies the association of the transfer. That is rare inside The Strand's gate.
Every owner belongs to The Links at The Strand Homeowner's Association, which sets the fee and the rules on Fairway Court; The Strand Master Property Owners Association, which runs the gate, the boulevards and the lakes; and The Club at The Strand, as a mandatory Social member at $4,162 for 2026 with no initiation for homeowners.
No neighborhood clubhouse or community pool, because every home has its own; no boat docks; no community development district; and, on September 26, 2026, one active listing and one pending. The shared amenities are the fairways, the cul-de-sac and the club down Strand Boulevard.
Links buyers work with McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, because a purchase here turns on details a listing rarely shows: the plan's own sales, the hole and lake behind the lanai, the roof's permit, the address point's flood zone and the fee nobody publishes. We read them before you offer.
Those are career numbers across Lee and Collier County. As the leaders of Domain Realty Group, our team has closed over $2.5 billion in real estate; learn more at DomainRealtyGroup.com. If you are comparing agents before you choose one, our guide to the best real estate agents in Naples, compared on the public record sets the teams side by side.
We tracked all ten Links MLS closings of the last five years and every recorded deed on the 54 lots for this page. Before you write an offer we read the home's plan against those sales, the roof and cage permits, the flood determination for the address point, the seller's fee statement, the 720.401 disclosure summary and the club's current brochure, and we tell you plainly what we found.

We will not tell you a fee figure we have not confirmed, call a Zone AH address point Zone X, or push you toward a larger plan than you need. We would rather you buy the right Links home in March than the wrong one this week.
This buyer guide runs from the market and the plan choice, through one purchase walked through from the record, the comparison with Single Family Homes at The Strand, the yearly cost, the rules, financing, the documents to read, flood and insurance, the steps, how we search and negotiate, closing costs and representation, schools and daily logistics, the consultation, reviews and the buyer FAQ.
The Links market is thin and moving. Six homes closed in the last twelve months at a $1,265,000 median, after one sale a year from 2022 to 2025; on September 26, 2026 one home was listed at $1,325,000 and one was pending. Well-priced homes went under contract in days, so a buyer who is ready before the right home lists has the advantage.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, retrieved 26 Sep 2026)
Over the 60 months to September 26, 2026 the MLS recorded 10 Links closings at a $1,167,500 median (n = 10, even, the mean of $1,135,000 and $1,200,000), from $799,000 to $1,595,000, at a median of $425.17 per living square foot (even). The median sale-to-list ratio was 100% and the median time on market 7 days (both n = 9, odd), with the one record entered after closing and not marketed on the MLS left out.
| Closed | Plan in the MLS | Living area | Final list | Sold | Sale-to-list | Days on market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| January 16, 2026 | 4 bedrooms, 3 baths | 2,745 sq ft | $1,595,000 | $1,595,000 | 100.00% | 0 |

Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, closings September 27, 2025 to September 26, 2026: 6 closings at a $1,265,000 median (n = 6, even, the mean of $1,200,000 and $1,330,000). Among the five marketed sales, the median sale-to-list ratio was 97.37% and the median time on market 0 days.
On September 26, 2026 the MLS showed one active Links home, a three-bedroom-plus-den, 2.5-bath home of 2,533 square feet at $1,325,000 after 16 days, and one pending, a three-bedroom-plus-den, three-bath home of 2,472 square feet listed at $1,295,000 that went under contract in 4 days. Listings change daily; for today's list and for homes about to come to market, Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 or ask for a personalized buyer consultation for The Links.
Four of the nine marketed sales in five years closed below list: by $30,000 in 2024, $25,000 in February 2026, $95,000 in June 2026 and $265,000 on the overpriced March 2026 listing. Five closed at full price. A buyer has room on a home priced above its plan's record, and very little on one priced inside it.
The Strand's 61 MLS closings in the last twelve months had a $610,000 median and 51 days on market, a condominium-led figure. The twelve detached-home sales closed at a $1,265,000 median with 7 days on market. The Links is the detached tier between the villa neighborhoods and the single-family streets, and it moves faster than the community as a whole.
On the county record, 27 of the 54 Links homes show no sale for value since 2013 or earlier, and 6 still show their 2001 first sale. Owners stay, which is why The Links traded about once a year from 2022 to 2025. A buyer should expect to wait for the right plan and view, and to act when it lists.

The plan that fits you is the one whose bedrooms you will use; the view that fits you is the one you will sit with every evening. Two-bedroom-plus-den plans of about 2,100 to 2,300 square feet sold for $820,000 to $935,000; three-bedroom-plus-den homes of about 2,400 to 2,600 for $799,000 to $1,500,000; four-bedroom homes for $1,200,000 to $1,595,000.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, retrieved 26 Sep 2026)
| Plan | MLS sales, five years | Living area | Sold prices | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 bedrooms plus den | 3 | 2,091 to 2,293 sq ft | $820,000 to $935,000 | A couple who wants the fairway and the pool without spare rooms |
| 3 bedrooms plus den | 4 | 2,406 to 2,583 sq ft | $799,000 (2022) to $1,500,000 (2026) | Owners with visiting family or a home office |
| 4 bedrooms | 2 | 2,727 to 2,745 sq ft | $1,300,000 and $1,595,000 | Families and hosts who need a true fourth bedroom |

Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, closings September 27, 2021 to September 26, 2026. Every group holds fewer than ten sales, so we list prices rather than quoting a group median.
The master association describes Links homes as "one or two story," and neither the MLS nor the county roll records which is which. If stairs matter to you, tell us at the start; we confirm story count from the floor plan of every home we show.
"All of the Links homes have direct golf course views of either the 4th, 5th or 6th holes of the Savannah golf course," per the master association, and "homes along the southern side of The Links also have water views." Savannah is the nine the club calls its "most player-friendly," with wide fairways and the largest greens. A home near a tee sees more golfers; a home along the fairway sees more grass; a south-side home sees the lake.
The lanai is where you will live, and its direction decides whether it is a morning room or an evening one. We check the compass on every home and visit at the hour you will use the lanai most, because a listing photograph never tells you where the sun sits at five o'clock in February.
Links lots run 0.17 to 0.28 acres on the county roll, a median of 0.19, and the association's landscapers maintain each lot's lawn and landscaping under section 5.1 of the declaration. The fairway is your view, not your yard; if you want a larger private lot, the single-family streets are the place to look.
Every Links home has a pool on the county roll and 40 of 54 have a spa. The pool, its enclosure, decks and patios are the owner's to maintain, so the pool equipment's age and the cage's condition belong on your inspection list.
The clearest buyer lesson in the Links record is the February 2026 purchase of a two-bedroom-plus-den home of 2,251 square feet: listed at $950,000, it closed at $925,000 on February 3, 2026, 97.37% of list, with 0 days on market, the only Links sale of 2026 under $1 million.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, retrieved 26 Sep 2026)
The buyer's comparables were the two earlier two-bedroom-plus-den sales, $935,000 in February 2023 and $820,000 in May 2024, and the January 2026 four-bedroom sale at $1,595,000 that had just reset expectations on the street. A $950,000 asking price sat at the top of the plan's record, not above it.
The home closed at $925,000, $25,000 under its asking price, at $410.93 per living square foot, with 0 days on market, which is how a price agreed before the listing went live reads in the MLS. A buyer who had waited for it to sit would not have seen it at all.
The county coded this sale as not qualified in its August 2026 sales file, so it does not appear in the county's qualified-sale counts; the MLS records it as an ordinary marketed sale. A buyer reading the county file alone would miss it, which is why we read both layers before advising on a price.
A home completed in the developer years, with the roof, exterior, pool and whole-house insurance now the owner's; a quarterly association fee paid in advance; the $4,162 Social membership; a property tax bill that resets to the purchase price; and no application to the association. The deed was the whole approval process.
Three things. First, the smaller Links plans held their prices through the 2026 repricing while the larger plans jumped, so they are The Links' entry point. Second, a home priced inside its plan's record sells before most buyers see it, so be pre-approved and ready. Third, read the MLS and the county together; each misses something the other shows.
Buy at The Links if you want a golf view from every home, lawn care in the fee, no buyer application and a lower entry price; buy on the single-family streets if you want a larger lot and plan, a published fee and more choice of setting. The Links' five-year median is $1,167,500; the single-family streets' is $1,775,000.

Our guide to Single Family Homes at The Strand covers the other neighborhood in depth.
A buyer who wants the fairway behind the lanai, the lawn handled, a cul-de-sac at the quiet corner of The Strand near the clubhouse and the north gate, and the freedom to buy, sell and lease without an association's approval, at roughly $600,000 less than the single-family median.
A buyer who needs more than four bedrooms or more than 3,300 square feet, wants a half-acre lot or a lake or preserve view, and values a published fee enough to accept the buyer application and the board's roof policy. For that search, read buying a single-family home in The Strand.
The single-family streets cost more per living square foot, $557.76 against $425.17 over five years, because their lots are about two-thirds larger and their plans larger and custom. At The Links you pay for the view; there you pay for land and house. Neither is overpriced; they are different purchases.
The two neighborhoods sit a short drive apart inside the same gate, so we tour them together. Seeing a Links lanai and a single-family backyard back to back settles most buyers' choice in an afternoon.
Owning a Links home costs four recurring layers: the Links association fee, quarterly in advance, which by its declaration includes the master association's share; the club's $4,162 Social dues for 2026; Collier County property taxes, reset to your purchase price; and your own homeowner's, wind and, where required, flood insurance. There is no CDD.
Data updated: September 2026 (county 2026 preliminary roll, data files dated 29 Aug 2026)
| Layer | What it is | 2026 figure |
|---|---|---|
| Links association fee | Quarterly in advance; common areas, each lot's lawn and landscaping, minor driveway repair, management, reserves and the master share | Not published; the estoppel certificate gives the current figure |
| Club Social membership | Mandatory for every Strand homeowner; no initiation | $4,162 |
| Property taxes | Reset to your purchase price after the sale | Non-homestead median on the roll $7,791.12; homestead median $4,465.89 |
| Homeowner's and wind insurance | The whole house; the association insures only the common areas | Quoted per home |
| Flood insurance | Required by a lender for a structure in the AH area; optional elsewhere | Quoted per home |
| CDD | None for The Strand | $0 |

The Links association publishes no assessment. We get the figure from the seller's statement before you offer, and the estoppel certificate under section 720.30851 confirms it, with anything unpaid and any special assessment adopted, before you close. The declaration requires the assessment to be paid quarterly in advance.
The highest Links tax on the 2026 preliminary roll, $10,412.79, belongs to the home that sold at $1,595,000 in January 2026. A buyer paying $1.2 million to $1.5 million who will not homestead the home should budget above the non-homestead median of $7,791.12. If you will live there full-time, apply for the homestead exemption once you qualify as of January 1; the assessment cap follows it, and the Collier County Tax Collector issues the bill each November.
The association's bylaws, as recorded in 2000, levy an initial capital assessment of $500 per site on the buyer at closing; the estoppel certificate gives the current figure. Add $20 for each gate transponder and a prorated share of the quarter's assessment.
Golf is not required. The 2026 brochure lists a Sport membership at a $40,000 initiation and $7,652 in dues, a Single Golf membership at an $80,000 initiation and a Full or Family Golf membership at a $100,000 initiation, with Full or Family golf dues of $15,861 at 56 and over.
Six recorded rules decide most buyers' fit: leases of at least 30 days and no more than three a year, household pets with no weight limit and two per home under the master rules, no boats, trucks or RVs outside the garage for more than eight hours, master association approval for exterior changes, signs only within the master's guidelines, and single-family residential use only.
Section 10.4 of the declaration requires every lease to be in writing with a copy delivered to the board, at least 30 days long, no more than three times a year, with no subleasing without approval, no room rentals and no transient tenants. The association does not pre-approve tenants under the Links declaration; the master association adds its own 30-day minimum and issues transponders to "approved renters."
The declaration allows "pets of a normal domesticated household type such as a cat or dog," leashed on common areas, and the master declaration allows two domestic animals per parcel. There is no weight limit and no breed list in the Links declaration. Any fence is an architectural approval.
Section 7.4 bars boats, trucks, commercial vehicles, trailers and recreational vehicles from a lot outside the garage, or from the common areas, for more than eight hours, and keeps garage doors closed except when entering or leaving. A boat or a work truck needs off-site storage.
Section 6.1 requires the master association Construction Committee's written approval before any building, fence, wall, screen enclosure, awning or exterior change. If you plan a new cage, a roof in a different material, impact windows or a generator, the approval is a step before the permit.
Homes are for "single-family residential living and for no other purpose," with no trade or business activity. The Links is not age-restricted: the declaration contains no housing-for-older-persons rule, and its definition of a single family includes children and grandchildren.
Signs are limited to those the master association's guidelines allow, exterior antennas and dishes need the board's discretion, and trash is kept in screened containers. These are the small rules that come up in the first month.
A Links home finances as an ordinary detached single-family home on its own lot, because it is one: no condominium questionnaire, no project approval and no association approval to wait on. At Links prices many loans are jumbo loans, and the lender will want the insurance quotes, and a flood determination, early.
You buy the lot and the house in fee simple under a Chapter 720 homeowners' association. A lender treats that as a single-family purchase, which avoids the condominium review that slows loans in the condominium neighborhoods of The Strand.
At $1.1 million to $1.6 million, many financed Links purchases need a loan above the conforming limit, depending on the down payment, so expect jumbo underwriting and an appraisal built from the 2026 Links sales. With ten sales in five years, an appraiser leans on the most recent ones; offering inside the 2026 record protects you from an appraisal gap.
Your lender will not fund without a homeowner's policy, with windstorm coverage, on the whole house, and a flood policy if the structure is in the AH area. Get quotes in the inspection period with the roof permit and the wind mitigation report in hand.
A cash buyer at The Links can close quickly because no association approval stands in the way; the timeline is the title work and the two estoppel certificates. In a thin market, that speed is part of an offer's strength.
Read the recorded Links declaration and its attached bylaws, the 720.401 disclosure summary, the seller's fee statement and both estoppel certificates, the club's 2026 brochure, the home's permit history and its flood determination or elevation certificate. Florida law puts some of these in your hands; we gather the rest.
The Links declaration, recorded March 22, 2000 at Official Records Book 2654, Page 0059, with the association's articles and bylaws attached. Articles IV (assessments), V (maintenance and insurance), VI (architectural control), VII (use) and X (sales and leases) are the ones a buyer uses. We found no recorded amendment in the documents we read; ask the title company to list any.
Section 720.401 requires the seller to give you a homeowners' association disclosure summary before or with the contract. It tells you that membership is mandatory, that recorded covenants govern use and that assessments are owed and may change.
One from the Links association and one from the master association, under section 720.30851, stating what is owed, what is paid and any special assessment adopted. The Links certificate should confirm that the master share is collected in the Links bill, as the declaration provides.
Collier County permits for the roof, the pool, the cage, the windows and the air conditioning tell you the true age of the big systems on a 25-year-old house. We pull them for every Links home we show.
The club's 2026 Membership Brochure sets the mandatory Social dues and the optional tiers. Dues change each season, so read the current year's before you offer.
Check the home's address point on FEMA's effective and preliminary maps, the lender's flood determination and any elevation certificate, the evacuation zone, the roof and openings, and get insurance quotes on the specific home. Most Fairway Court address points are Zone X; six are Zone AH on the effective map.
Data updated: September 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, queried 27 Sep 2026)
| FEMA layer | Unshaded Zone X | Shaded Zone X | Zone AH |
|---|---|---|---|
| Effective map | 43 | 6 | 6 |
| Preliminary map | 55 | 0 | 0 |
Every Fairway Court address point in Collier County Public Schools' address database, 55 in all, queried on FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer and its preliminary layer on September 27, 2026. The six AH points sit mid-street, on both sides of Fairway Court; 47 points fall on panel 12021C0192J, effective February 8, 2024, and the 8 easternmost on panel 12021C0211H, effective May 16, 2012.
An address point is not a building footprint. A lender's flood determination decides whether a lender requires flood insurance, and an elevation certificate shows whether the floor sits above the flood elevation, which moves the premium. Collier County explains the certificate in its Building Bulletin 21.
FEMA's preliminary maps put all 55 points in unshaded Zone X, and Collier County opened a 90-day appeal and comment period on August 19, 2026. Until the new maps take effect, the effective map governs.
Fairway Court is in Collier County's Evacuation Zone D. At a Fairway Court test point the ground sits at about 14.0 feet against a nearest base flood elevation line of 12.0 feet, and the National Hurricane Center's worst-case surge maps show no surge there in Category 1 or 2 scenarios, under 3 feet in Category 3 and more in Categories 4 and 5.
Your homeowner's premium turns on the roof's age and attachment and the protection of the windows and doors. A wind mitigation inspection under section 627.0629 documents the credits, and Citizens explains the same credits for its policyholders. Ask for the seller's report, or order one in your inspection period.
Buying a Links home runs in eight steps: a written buyer agreement and a pre-approval, a plan-and-view search, tours through the gatehouse, a document and flood screen, an offer priced from the plan's sales, inspection and insurance in the inspection period, the appraisal and both estoppel certificates, and closing. No association approval sits between contract and closing.
Since August 17, 2024 a buyer signs a written agreement with their own agent before touring. Sign ours, and get a lender's pre-approval sized to the plan you want, so you can move the day the right home lists.
Tell us the plan, the story count, the hole or lake you want behind the lanai and your budget. We set an alert for Fairway Court and the comparable detached homes inside the gate.
Every visitor passes The Strand's staffed gatehouse on Strand Boulevard, so we schedule each tour and brief the gate. Plan to see the clubhouse on the way in, because the club is part of what you are buying.
Before you offer we read the home's fee statement, the 720.401 disclosure summary, the roof and cage permits, the address point's flood zone and the seller's insurance information, and we summarize them for you in one page.
We price your offer from the plan's sales, the active competition and the home's roof and condition, and we set the terms to be the strongest offer the seller sees, not just the highest.
In the inspection period: a full home inspection, a wind mitigation inspection if the seller has none, a pool and cage check, and insurance quotes on the specific home, including flood if the structure is in the AH area.
Your lender orders the appraisal; the closing agent orders the Links and master association estoppel certificates under section 720.30851. We check that the two certificates agree on who bills the master share.
Sign, fund and record the deed. The seller notifies the association of the transfer, you order gate transponders from the master association at $20 each, and you join the club as a Social member.

We find the right Links home by searching on plan and view first, watching Fairway Court every day, reaching owners and agents before a listing goes public, and screening every home's roof, flood and documents before you tour it. With one or two Links homes on the market at a time, the search is about being first, not about scrolling.
An alert set to The Links' street and your plan catches a new listing the hour it appears. In 2026 three Links homes sold with 0 days on market, so an alert that runs once a day is already too slow.
The county recorded a $1,128,000 Links sale in February 2024 that never appeared in the MLS. Our seller relationships and our agent network surface homes before they list, and we tell owners we have a ready buyer.
For every home we send the plan, the living area, the hole and side of the street, the roof's permit date, the address point's flood zone and the last sale price on the county record, so you only tour homes that can work.
Twelve Links owners have a mailing address outside Florida on the 2026 roll. If you are buying from up north, Marc tours by video at the hour you choose, shows the view from the lanai and the drive from the gate, and holds the home with a clean offer while you plan a visit.
We negotiate on Fairway Court from the plan's own sales, the home's roof and condition, and the seller's alternatives. Five of the nine marketed Links sales in five years closed at full price, so on a well-priced home the leverage is in the terms; on an overpriced one, it is in the record.
A three-bedroom-plus-den home is worth what three-bedroom-plus-den homes sold for, $1,135,000 to $1,500,000 in 2026, not what the four-bedroom sale reached. We show the listing agent the plan's record when the asking price borrows from another plan.
A strong deposit, a short inspection period backed by our pre-tour screen, a flexible closing date and no approval contingency, because the declaration needs none. In a neighborhood that sells in days, clean terms can matter as much as price.
When the inspection finds a roof, cage or equipment issue, we ask for a closing credit or a price adjustment with a contractor's estimate behind it. Credits keep the deal on schedule and give you control of the repair.
A Links home on the market for weeks is priced above its plan's record. The March 2026 sale closed $265,000 under its $1,595,000 asking price after 88 days; we read days on market and price history before we suggest a number.
A Links buyer's closing costs are the owner's title insurance policy and closing fee, which Collier County custom assigns to the buyer, the lender's charges and title policy if you finance, recording and government taxes on a new mortgage, the initial capital assessment, a prorated quarter of the association fee and gate transponders.
In Collier County the buyer customarily selects the closing agent and pays the owner's title policy. Florida's premium is set by the state under rule 69O-186.003 of the Florida Administrative Code, so every title company charges the same premium for the same coverage. The contract always controls.
If you finance, expect the lender's fees, the lender's title policy, the appraisal and Florida's documentary stamp and intangible taxes on the new mortgage. Your lender's loan estimate lists each line.
The initial capital assessment of $500 per site in the 2000 bylaws, unless the board has changed it; a prorated share of the quarterly assessment; $20 per gate transponder; and the club's Social dues, settled with the club. No application fee, because there is no application.
The documentary stamp tax on the deed, $0.70 per $100 of price under section 201.02 and customarily the seller's cost, and usually the estoppel fees. On a $1,265,000 purchase the deed stamps are $8,855, and they are the seller's; the seller's side of a Links sale is set out in our Links seller guide.
| Line, on a $1,265,000 purchase | Who customarily pays in Collier County | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Owner's title insurance policy | Buyer | State-promulgated premium |
| Closing or settlement fee | Buyer, usually | Negotiable |
| Lender's title policy, fees and appraisal | Buyer, if financing | On the loan estimate |
| Documentary stamp and intangible taxes on the mortgage | Buyer, if financing | On the loan estimate |
| Initial capital assessment | Buyer | $500 per site in the 2000 bylaws |
| Association application fee | Not applicable | No application |
| Prorated association fee | Buyer reimburses seller for the prepaid part of the quarter | From the estoppel certificate |
| Gate transponders | Buyer | $20 each |
| Deed documentary stamp tax | Seller | $8,855 |
This is a planning table, not a quote; your loan estimate and the closing agent's settlement statement are the final numbers.
Since August 17, 2024 you sign a written agreement with your buyer's agent before touring, and offers of compensation to buyers' agents no longer appear on the MLS. The agreement states what you will pay us and when; a seller may agree to cover some or all of it, and we negotiate that in the offer.
NAR's practice changes require a written buyer agreement before touring a home, stating the compensation in a specific amount or rate. It is negotiable, and we explain ours in plain terms before you sign.
You may pay your agent directly, ask the seller to pay as part of the offer, or combine the two. We tell you what we are seeing in current Strand offers before you decide how to structure yours.
A Links purchase turns on unpublished numbers and recorded rules: the fee, the master share, the AH address points, the roof. An agent who reads the declaration and the county record works for you in ways a listing agent cannot.
A Links address is zoned for 2026-2027 to Veterans Memorial Elementary, North Naples Middle and Aubrey Rogers High, all graded A by the state in 2024, 2025 and 2026, per Collier County Public Schools' address database. Daily life runs through the gatehouse and the north gate, with Immokalee Road and I-75 about two miles down Strand Boulevard.
Data updated: September 2026 (Collier County Public Schools address database, queried 27 Sep 2026)
| Level | School | Address |
|---|---|---|
| Elementary | Veterans Memorial Elementary School | 15960 Veterans Memorial Blvd, Naples 34110 |
| Middle | North Naples Middle School | 16165 Learning Ln, Naples 34110 |
| High | Aubrey Rogers High School | 15100 Patriot Pl, Naples 34110 |
All 55 Fairway Court address records returned the same three schools for 2026-2027, none flagged for rezoning. Aubrey Rogers High opened in August 2023, which is why older listings name a different high school. Confirm any address in the district's public zone lookup before relying on it.
The main gatehouse on Strand Boulevard is staffed; residents use windshield transponders at $20 each, issued to "residents, members, and approved renters only." The master association places the north gate within easy reach of Fairway Court. Guests are sent to the main gate.
| Destination | From Strand Boulevard at Immokalee Road |
|---|---|
| I-75 interchange | 0.4 miles, about 1 minute |
| NCH North Naples Hospital | about 6 minutes |
| Mercato shopping | 4.8 miles |
| Vanderbilt Beach | 6.2 miles, about 12 minutes |
| Downtown Naples, Fifth Avenue South | about 20 minutes |
| Southwest Florida International Airport | about 25 minutes |
Free-flow times from the OSRM routing engine, measured September 2026 from the main entrance. The Links sits near the north end of the community, so add up to about 2 miles of interior driving.
The association's landscapers maintain each lot's lawn and landscaping. Utilities are underground, septic tanks are prohibited, trash stays in screened containers, and The Strand's bulk Comcast agreement runs through the master association.
FDOT's I-75 widening, project 452544-1, adds lanes along The Strand's east edge with construction starting from fall 2026, and project 454099-1 redesigns the I-75 interchange at Immokalee Road. The Links sits at the opposite, northwest corner of the community from the interchange.

Out-of-state buyers often see Fairway Court in a single trip, so the tours are planned before they land.
Links buyers work directly with Marc Comisar and Jesse McGreevy, not a call center. Jesse has been in the business since October 2004, the team launched in October 2008, and both read the Links declaration, the county's deed history for all 54 homes, FEMA's maps for every Fairway Court address point and every Links sale of the last five years before writing this page.

Pricing an offer off a different plan, quoting a fee nobody has confirmed, missing the master share, treating a Zone AH address point as Zone X, skipping the roof permit, or not knowing that no association approval is needed and writing an approval contingency that weakens the offer.

These are the questions Links buyers ask us, with each answer drawn from the Southwest Florida MLS Matrix (retrieved September 26, 2026), the county's 2026 preliminary roll and recorded sales, the recorded Links declaration, the club's 2026 brochure, FEMA and Collier County Public Schools. The neighborhood's full background is in our Links at The Strand guide.
A neighborhood of 54 detached single-family pool homes on Fairway Court, in the northwest corner of The Strand in North Naples, governed by The Links at The Strand Homeowner's Association under a declaration recorded March 22, 2000.
On Fairway Court, a cul-de-sac that runs west from Strand Boulevard near the north end of The Strand, ZIP 34110, north of Immokalee Road and west of I-75, close to the clubhouse and the north gate.
The master association calls them "free-standing, one or two story, single family villas"; legally they are detached single-family homes on their own platted lots, owned in fee simple, not condominium units.
Six sold in the last twelve months for $925,000 to $1,595,000, at a $1,265,000 median (n = 6, even). Over five years, ten sold at a $1,167,500 median (n = 10, even).
On September 26, 2026, one home was active, a three-bedroom-plus-den of 2,533 square feet at $1,325,000, and one was pending at a $1,295,000 list price. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 for today's list.
A median of 7 days on market over five years and 0 days over the last twelve months among marketed sales; three 2026 sales closed with 0 days.
On a home priced inside its plan's record, a little: five of nine marketed sales closed at full price. On one priced above it, more: the March 2026 sale closed $265,000 under its asking price after 88 days.
No. Section 10.3 of the declaration says "There shall be no restrictions on transfers of Lots"; the seller notifies the association of the transfer.
The amount is not published. By the recorded declaration the quarterly assessment pays for the common areas, each lot's lawn and landscaping, minor driveway repair, management, insurance and reserves, and collects the master association's share. The estoppel certificate gives the figure.
No. Section 5.2 of the declaration makes the owner responsible for "painting and repair of roof, gutters, down spouts, and exterior building surfaces," the pool and its enclosure.
Yes. Section 5.1 has the association assess each lot "for the maintenance of the lawn and landscaping on their Lots."
Yes. Social membership is mandatory for every Strand homeowner at $4,162 for 2026, with no initiation fee; golf and sport memberships are optional.
No. Golf is optional; the 2026 brochure lists a Single Golf membership at an $80,000 initiation and a Full or Family Golf membership at $100,000.
No. Florida Commerce's Official List of Special Districts lists no community development district for The Strand.
They reset to your purchase price. On the 2026 preliminary roll the non-homestead median was $7,791.12 and the homestead median $4,465.89; the Links home that sold at $1,595,000 in January 2026 carries the highest bill, $10,412.79.
No. The declaration has no age restriction, and its definition of a single family includes children and grandchildren.
Yes, for 30 days or more, no more than three times a year, with a written lease delivered to the board; no room rentals or transient tenants. Nightly and weekly rentals are not allowed.
Yes. The declaration allows household cats and dogs, leashed on common areas, with no weight limit; the master declaration allows two domestic animals per home.
Only inside the garage, or outside for less than eight hours, under section 7.4 of the declaration.
Both; the master association describes "one or two story" homes. We confirm story count from the floor plan of each home.
The ten sold on the MLS since 2022 had 2,091 to 3,300 square feet of living area; lots run 0.17 to 0.28 acres on the county roll.
Yes. All 54 lots carry a pool on the county roll, and 40 also carry a spa.
Savannah holes 4, 5 and 6; homes on the south side of the street also have water views, per the master association.
From 2000 to 2003 by the county roll: 2 in 2000, 27 in 2001, 13 in 2002 and 12 in 2003, all by one developer.
Mostly Zone X. On FEMA's effective map 43 of 55 Fairway Court address points are unshaded Zone X, 6 shaded Zone X and 6 Zone AH; the preliminary maps put all 55 in unshaded Zone X.
A lender will require it if the home's structure is in the AH area on the effective map; elsewhere it is optional. The flood determination and elevation certificate decide.
Zone D, called only after Zones A, B and C, per Collier County's evacuation layer.
Veterans Memorial Elementary, North Naples Middle and Aubrey Rogers High for 2026-2027, for all 55 Fairway Court addresses; all three were graded A in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
Yes. It is a fee-simple detached home under a homeowners' association, so there is no condominium review; at Links prices many loans are jumbo loans.
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays the owner's title policy and the closing fee, plus lender charges and mortgage taxes if financing, the $500 initial capital assessment in the 2000 bylaws, a prorated quarter of the fee and $20 per transponder.
The Links is 54 golf-front homes at a $1,167,500 five-year median with no buyer application; the single-family streets are 121 homes at $1,775,000 with larger lots, a published fee and Tenant Evaluation screening. See the comparison above.
Yes. Twelve current Links owners have a mailing address outside Florida. Marc tours by video, and closings are signed electronically with a local closing agent.
