Buying a home in The Renaissance means choosing between six products inside one gate, a Triana coach-home condominium, a Villagio detached villa, a Monteverdi executive home, a Vittoria or Terabella estate home or a newer Via Lago home, and each one sits on its own CDD row, its own resale record and its own set of documents. Our guide to The Renaissance tells the story of this gated Arthur Hills golf community north of Daniels Parkway in Fort Myers. This page is the buyer's version: what each section has sold for on the county record, what the CDD line and the club cost, what the master and Triana associations do not publish, what the flood map shows, and which documents to collect before your inspection period ends. By Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, with every sale figure read from the Lee County Property Appraiser roll (October 4, 2026) and Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 or Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser roll dated October 4, 2026; Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026; Renaissance CDD Adopted Budget FY 2027, approved August 10, 2026; The Club at Renaissance 2026 membership booklet).
The Renaissance looks simple from the Palomino Lane gate: one golf course, one clubhouse, one community. The paperwork is not. The Renaissance Community Development District bills 13 different totals by product row on the Lee County tax bill, the master association does not publish its assessment, the four Triana condominium associations add a second layer for condominium owners, and the club states its own membership terms in its own booklet. Every sale in the last 12 months was a resale, so the recorded sale of a comparable home in the same section is the price evidence. We know which row a lot sits on, which document holds each missing figure and which comparable is the right one, and we price the difference into the offer before the inspection period closes.
If you are weighing us against other agents, our look at the best real estate agents in Fort Myers sets out the yardsticks we think a Renaissance buyer should use: verified production, years in the market, reviews you can read word for word, and whether the agent who tours the home with you is the agent who negotiates it.
Awards are not a negotiating strategy. Two decades of continuous Southwest Florida production is how an agent recognizes a fair price on a 2005 Villagio villa or a 2020 Via Lago home without guessing, and how we know what a Lee County closing agent, a district manager, a condominium association, a private club and an insurance underwriter will ask for before a closing can happen.
Jesse and Marc handle their own buyers, and Marc leads buyer representation and negotiation. There is no junior handoff: the person who tours the home with you negotiates it. Jesse's direct line is (239) 898-6072 and Marc's is (239) 287-5873. Our office is at 24031 S Tamiami Trl #101, Bonita Springs, FL 34134, and our Fort Myers office is at 8290 College Parkway, Unit 201, Fort Myers, FL 33919. We meet Renaissance buyers at the gate on Palomino Lane. The reviews section further down quotes five Google reviews word for word.

McGreevy and Comisar bring a verified Southwest Florida record to a Renaissance purchase: our Domain Realty Group team has closed over $2.5 billion in real estate, and Jesse and Marc's own sales exceed $900 million. In the last 12 months we tracked 21 Renaissance closings in the county's recorded sales, at a $910,000 median.

As the leaders of Domain Realty Group our team has closed over $2.5 billion in real estate, and Jesse and Marc account for more than $900 million of personal production inside that number. Domain Realty Group is the #5 real estate team in Florida (RealTrends 2026). Those are the production figures we publish on every page we operate, and they are the same here.
In the 12 months to September 25, 2026 we tracked 21 Renaissance closings in the Lee County record, carrying $22,916,890 in recorded dollar volume, and 716 qualified residential sales since the first recorded sale on March 28, 2003. We split them by product (single-family home or Triana condominium), by section and by street, and we read the Triana sales one by one. We set them beside the CDD's adopted fiscal 2027 budget and its assessment schedule, its audits, the two zoning resolutions of 2001 and 2002, the club's 2026 membership booklet, the master association's amended articles, FEMA's flood layers and the pending 2027 map revision, the county's evacuation and surge layers, and the School District of Lee County's 2026-2027 enrollment zones.
Before the first showing we confirm the section, the product and the CDD schedule row for the address, including whether the Series 2012 debt was prepaid. We read the CDD line on the seller's Lee County tax bill, request the master association estoppel (and, for a Triana unit, the condominium association's estoppel, budget and reserve schedule), ask the club in writing what membership conveys with the home, check the address against FEMA's map and the pending revision, and ask for the wind mitigation form and the roof permit. Those checks cost nothing and only count if they happen inside the inspection period. The history, governance and lifestyle detail behind them is in our guide to The Renaissance.
The Renaissance market in the 12 months to September 25, 2026 was 21 recorded sales at a $910,000 median, from $430,000 to $2,330,000: 13 single-family homes at a $1,420,000 median and 8 Triana condominiums, with Triana's 24-month median at $506,000. Every sale was a resale, and no builder-direct sale was recorded (an estimate).
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser roll dated October 4, 2026; Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis).
Source for every figure in this section: Lee County Property Appraiser roll (October 4, 2026) and Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis. "12 months" means sales recorded September 26, 2025 to September 25, 2026. Builder-direct counts are an estimate: the first recorded sale of a new home. Price per square foot is per square foot of county heated area, the roll's measure, and is never set against an MLS living-area figure. Where a section or street recorded one or two sales, we list the prices and print no median.
The 12-month window is the first with ten or more sales, so it leads; the longer windows show the trend.
| Window | From | To | Sales | Median | Low | High |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12 months | September 26, 2025 | September 25, 2026 | 21 | $910,000 | $430,000 | $2,330,000 |
| 24 months | September 26, 2024 | September 25, 2026 | 31 | $935,000 | $430,000 | $4,200,000 |
| 36 months | September 26, 2023 | September 25, 2026 | 50 | $895,000 | $430,000 | $4,200,000 |
| 60 months | September 26, 2021 | September 25, 2026 | 115 | $900,000 | $355,000 | $4,200,000 |
The 21 sales in the 12 months carried $22,916,890 in recorded dollar volume. The median sits close to $900,000 in every window, but that steadiness comes from the mix of condominiums and estate homes, not from flat prices, and the product table below shows why a buyer should never price from the community median.
| Product | Window used | Sales | Median | Range | $ per heated sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single-family homes | 12 months | 13 | $1,420,000 | $640,000 to $2,330,000 | $383.73 |
| Triana condominiums | 24 months (first window with 10 or more) | 10 | $506,000 | $430,000 to $910,000 | $252.46 |
Triana recorded 8 sales in the 12 months, under ten, at a $486,000 median; we lead with the 24-month figure because it rests on ten sales. Over longer windows the single-family median holds near $1.5 million: 21 sales at $1,475,000 over 24 months, 28 at $1,485,000 over 36 months and 65 at $1,504,990 over 60 months. For a buyer that is the first fork in the road: a Triana unit and a single-family home are different markets that happen to share a gate.
| Band (12 months, all residential) | Sales |
|---|---|
| $400,000 to $500,000 | 5 |
| $500,000 to $750,000 | 2 |
| $750,000 to $1,000,000 | 6 |
| $1,000,000 and up | 8 |
The bands split largely by product. The lowest band is all Triana. The two middle bands mix Triana's larger floor plans with Villagio homes and one Monteverdi Way home, and the million-dollar band is mostly the estate sections and Via Lago. A buyer with a budget under $500,000 is shopping Triana; a buyer between $750,000 and $1,000,000 is usually choosing between a large Triana floor plan and a Villagio villa.
| Section | Window used | Sales | Median or listed prices | $ per heated sq ft | 12-month column |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Estate blocks (Terabella, Vittoria, Monteverdi; PB 72 Blocks A, B, F; 135 homes) | 24 months | 12 | $1,502,445 ($890,000 to $4,200,000) | $475.97 | 7 sales, median $1,504,990 (under 10) |
| Villagio (PB 72 Block C; 59 homes) | 60 months | 18 | $917,500 ($604,000 to $1,275,000) | $346.15 | 5 sales, median $935,000 |
| Via Lago (Phase 2A, PB 81; 55 homes) | 60 months | 11 | $1,810,000 ($1,580,000 to $2,500,000) | $503.31 | one sale, at $1,590,000 |
| Triana I to IV (130 units) | 24 months | 10 | $506,000 ($430,000 to $910,000) | $252.46 | 8 sales (under 10) |
Each section uses the first window in which it reaches ten sales, so the windows differ on purpose. Via Lago, the newest section, records few sales because few owners have sold; its 60-month median of $1,810,000 is the highest section median in the community.
| Street (12 months) | Sales | Median or listed prices |
|---|---|---|
| Villagio Way | 5 | median $935,000 ($640,000 to $1,060,000) |
| Monteverdi Way | 4 | median $1,462,495 ($900,000 to $2,295,000) |
| Vittoria Way | two sales (thin) | $1,499,900 and $2,300,000 |
| Terabella Way | one sale (thin) | at $2,330,000 |
| Via Lago Way | one sale (thin) | at $1,590,000 |
The thin rows are listed, never averaged. One sale on Terabella Way at $2,330,000 was the highest recorded sale in the community in the 12 months; one sale on Via Lago Way at $1,590,000 was a 2020 home. When a street has one or two sales, we price from the section's longer window and the specific homes, never from the street alone.
| Date | Price | Heated sq ft | Street |
|---|---|---|---|
| December 4, 2024 | $690,000 | 2,537 | Triana Terrace |
| March 10, 2025 | $520,000 | 1,826 | Triana Terrace |
| October 1, 2025 | $492,000 | 1,826 | Triana Terrace |
| January 5, 2026 | $475,000 | 2,038 | Triana Terrace |
| March 9, 2026 | $430,000 | 1,826 | Triana Terrace |
| March 16, 2026 | $455,000 | 2,537 | Triana Terrace |
| March 24, 2026 | $910,000 | 2,732 | Triana Terrace |
| May 4, 2026 | $780,000 | 2,537 | Triana Terrace |
| May 13, 2026 | $635,000 | 2,732 | Triana Terrace |
| July 31, 2026 | $480,000 | 2,732 | Triana Terrace |
The March 24, 2026 sale at $910,000 is one unit, a Triana III floor plan of 2,732 heated square feet built in 2005, coded qualified by the appraiser. The same floor plan sold at $635,000 in May 2026 and $480,000 in July 2026, so that one sale sits well above other 2026 Triana sales and is not the price of a Triana unit. For a buyer the useful reading is the spread inside one floor plan: the same 2,732 square feet recorded three very different prices in four months, which is why condition, upgrades and the unit's position in its building are part of every Triana offer we write. The 24-month median of $506,000 is the figure to price from.
| Year | All residential: sales, median | Single-family: sales, median | Triana: sales, median |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 39, $565,000 | 23, $800,000 | 16, $295,000 |
| 2020 | 39, $635,000 | 24, $887,500 | 15, $321,900 |
| 2021 | 60, $775,000 | 38, $1,132,500 | 22, $397,500 |
| 2022 | 35, $850,000 | 16, $1,700,000 | 19, $634,500 |
| 2023 | 28, $1,140,000 | 17, $1,720,000 | 11, $662,000 |
| 2024 | 16, $910,500 | 8, $1,610,000 | 8, $657,500 |
| 2025 | 10, $1,205,000 | 8, $1,500,000 | two sales, $492,000 and $520,000 (thin) |
| 2026 (to September 25) | 17, $900,000 | 10, $1,240,000 | 7, $480,000 |
Sales volume peaked in 2021 at 60 recorded sales and fell to 10 in 2025, with 17 recorded in 2026 through September 25. The single-family median more than doubled from 2019 to its 2023 peak before easing, while Triana rose from $295,000 in 2019 to $662,000 in 2023 and recorded $480,000 in 2026 to date. A buyer negotiating today is negotiating in a year when Triana prices sit below their 2023 level on the county record, and the offer should reflect that.
The highest recorded single-family sale in the 24 months to September 25, 2026 was $4,200,000, in October 2024 on Terabella Way, for a 2017 home of 4,691 heated square feet. It is the high end of the estate blocks, the 135 homes of Terabella, Vittoria and Monteverdi, which recorded 12 sales over 24 months at a $1,502,445 median and $475.97 per heated square foot.
| Year | Estate blocks: sales, median |
|---|---|
| 2019 | 14, $960,000 |
| 2020 | 14, $887,500 |
| 2021 | 24, $1,270,000 |
| 2022 | 8, $1,700,000 |
| 2023 | 9, $1,720,000 |
| 2024 | 6, $2,007,500 |
| 2025 | 5, $1,525,000 |
| 2026 (to September 25) | 5, $1,499,900 |
The estate-block median crossed $2 million in 2024 on six sales, the year of the $4,200,000 sale, then returned to the $1.5 million range on five sales in each of 2025 and 2026. With counts this small, one large home moves the median, so we read the 24-month figure first and then the specific homes.
Across all 21 sales in the 12 months, the median is $330.74 per square foot of county heated area. Single-family homes ran $383.73 over the same 12 months. By section the spread is wide: Via Lago $503.31 over 60 months, the estate blocks $475.97 over 24 months, Villagio $346.15 over 60 months and Triana $252.46 over 24 months. A single community figure blends all of them, so it describes none.
The same mix explains two medians that look like price drops. The all-residential median of $910,000 sits far below the single-family median of $1,420,000 because 8 of the 21 sales were Triana condominiums: that is mix, not a price drop. And the 2026 single-family calendar median of $1,240,000 is lower than 2023's $1,720,000 because 4 of the 10 single-family sales recorded in 2026 were Villagio Way homes, the smallest product. Read the section medians, not the blend.
In every window the tool measured from 2021 forward, the builder-direct count in The Renaissance is zero (an estimate), and all 21 sales in the 12 months were resales. The last builder-direct first sales were in Via Lago, six in 2018, one in 2019 and one in 2020, plus one estate-block home in 2021, before the 60-month window opens in September 2021 (all estimates). A buyer today is buying from an owner, and the only new construction left is a custom home on one of the six vacant homesites.
In the Southwest Florida MLS (Matrix export of October 29, 2026), the 21 Renaissance closings in the 12 months to that date took a median 149 days on market and sold at a median 93.42 percent of the final list price (single-family 203.5 days, 93.73 percent). On October 29 there were 13 active listings and 2 pending, about 7.4 months of supply at 1.75 closings a month (our arithmetic). With 21 recorded sales in 12 months across 385 homesites, turnover is low, and a single new listing in a thin section such as Via Lago or Terabella can be the only comparable on the market the week you are looking.
The Renaissance offers five single-family sections and one condominium section: Terabella and Vittoria estate homes, Monteverdi executive homes on the course, Villagio's 59 detached villas, Via Lago's newer homes on the Phase 2A plat, and the 130 Triana I to IV coach-home condominiums. Each carries its own CDD row, price level and document set.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser roll dated October 4, 2026; Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis; Renaissance CDD Adopted Budget FY 2027).
The section names are the developer's own registered service marks, filed August 12, 2004 (Sunbiz, VITTORIA service mark filing, read October 2026). On the county roll they read as plat blocks: Plat Book 72 Block A (Terabella), Block B (Vittoria), Block C (Villagio) and Block F (Monteverdi), Renaissance Phase 2A (Via Lago) and Triana I to IV of Renaissance. Only Triana has its own associations, which is the single biggest difference a buyer meets when choosing.
| Section | Product | Built | Vacant | Year built | Heated sq ft | Median lot | CDD row and FY 2027 total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terabella (Block A) | Estate homes | 38 | 1 | 2003 to 2018 | up to 9,254 | about 0.53 acre | SF 140 ft, $4,019.80 |
| Vittoria (Block B) | Single-family homes | 49 | 1 | 2003 to 2021 | 2,907 to 5,800 | about 0.36 acre | SF 90 ft, $2,833.22 |
| Monteverdi (Block F) | Executive homes | 48 | 4 | 2003 to 2023 | 2,556 to 5,735 | about 0.30 acre | Executive 75 ft, $2,516.79 |
| Villagio (Block C) | Detached villas | 59 | 0 | 2003 to 2006 | 1,913 to 3,138 | about 0.21 acre | Villa 60 ft, $2,121.26 (or $1,406.77 prepaid) |
| Via Lago (Phase 2A) | Newer estate homes | 55 | 0 | 2006 to 2024 | 2,909 to 6,898 | lots 13,486 to 29,207 sq ft | Estate 120 ft, $3,624.28 (or $1,675.64 prepaid) |
| Triana I to IV | Coach-home condominiums | 130 units | 0 | 2003 to 2007 | 1,826 to 2,733 | not applicable | Coach 4-plex, $1,646.63 |
Sources: Lee County Property Appraiser roll (October 4, 2026), our analysis; Renaissance CDD, Adopted Budget FY 2027. Double-lot and lot-and-a-half rows sit above these single-lot figures and are listed in the cost section.
Terabella, on Terabella Way and Terabella Place, holds 38 homes and one vacant homesite on the community's largest lots, a median of about 0.53 acre, with heated area up to 9,254 square feet and homes built from 2003 to 2018. Twenty-three of its 39 lots carry the appraiser's golf-course view class and 11 the lake class. Terabella recorded one sale in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, at $2,330,000, and holds the highest single-family sale of the 24 months, $4,200,000 in October 2024. With so few trades, we price a Terabella home from the estate blocks' combined record and the specific comparable homes, and the buyer should expect the widest gap between homes on the same street of any section.
Vittoria holds 49 homes and one vacant homesite on median lots of about 0.36 acre, from 2,907 to 5,800 heated square feet, built from 2003 to 2021. It recorded two sales in the 12 months, $1,499,900 and $2,300,000, and that spread is the section in miniature: a 2004 home of 3,439 heated square feet on a lake lot and a 2006 home of 5,031 on a golf course lot sat $800,100 apart on the same street. Thirty-two lots carry the golf view class and 10 the lake class. A home on two Vittoria lots carries the $4,415.33 double-lot CDD row, so the lot count matters to the carrying cost as well as the price.
Monteverdi holds 48 homes and 4 vacant homesites, the most open lots of any section, on median lots of about 0.30 acre, from 2,556 to 5,735 heated square feet, built from 2003 to 2023. Its defining fact is the course: 43 of its 52 lots carry the appraiser's golf-course view class. Monteverdi recorded 4 sales in the 12 months at a $1,462,495 median, from $900,000 to $2,295,000. It is also the section closest to the Mall Loop Road connection, about 0.4 route miles inside the gates (a routing-engine estimate). A buyer who wants to build new inside The Renaissance will find most of the remaining supply here.
Villagio is 59 detached single-family homes on the smallest lots in the community, a median of about 0.21 acre, from 1,913 to 3,138 heated square feet, all built from 2003 to 2006 under one builder program; 57 of the 59 have two or three bedrooms. Twenty-eight lots carry the golf view class, two the lake class and 29 neither. It is the busiest single-family section: 5 sales in the 12 months at a $935,000 median, from $640,000 to $1,060,000, and 18 sales over 60 months at a $917,500 median. Because the homes came from one program, Villagio sales compare to each other more cleanly than sales anywhere else here, which makes it the easiest section in which to price an offer with confidence. Villagio at Estero is a different place with its own association; no separate Villagio association appears on the records we read, so Villagio homes answer to the master association.
Via Lago, the Phase 2A plat on Via Lago Way, holds 55 homes built from 2006 to 2024, 23 of them from 2015 to 2019 and 4 since 2020, from 2,909 to 6,898 heated square feet on lots of 13,486 to 29,207 square feet. Thirty of its 55 lots carry the lake class and 24 the golf class. Few owners sell: one sale in the 12 months, at $1,590,000 for a 2020 home, and 11 sales over 60 months at a $1,810,000 median, at $503.31 per square foot of county heated area, the highest section median in the community. On the county record its legal description reads Renaissance Phase 2A, not Via Lago, which matters when you search for comparables.
Triana is 130 condominium units in 32 two-story buildings on Triana Terrace, 31 of four units and one of six, built from 2003 to 2007, with floor plans from 1,826 to 2,733 heated square feet; 32 units have two bedrooms and 98 have three on the roll. It is four condominiums, each with its own association inside the master association, and the CDD assesses each unit as a "Coach 4-plex" at $1,646.63 in FY 2027. Ten sales over 24 months recorded a $506,000 median at $252.46 per square foot of county heated area. Triana is the lowest entry price into The Renaissance and the lowest CDD row apart from a prepaid Villagio lot, but it adds a condominium association, its budget and its reserves to the cost stack, and the next section covers what that changes.

The appraiser's view class is a coding on the single-family lot record (Lee County Property Appraiser parcel service), not a promise about what a window frames. Monteverdi is the golf section, Via Lago the lake section, and Villagio splits nearly in half between golf lots and lots with neither view. Lake lots sit beside the CDD's lake maintenance easement of about 20 feet, where fences, patios and planting changes are not allowed, so a lake view comes with a strip you cannot build on (Renaissance CDD, Letter to Renaissance Residents, April 2025).
The 2026 roll shows six vacant residential homesites: one on Terabella Way, one on Vittoria Way and four on Monteverdi Way. Each already sits on a CDD product row, so a vacant lot pays the district's charge from the day you own it, before any home is built. Building one means a custom home designed for the lot, approved through the master association's architectural process and permitted by Lee County under the RPD zoning and any amendment that names the lot. Lee County also requires the livable floor in X zones to be one foot above the crown of the road (Lee County DCD, flood permit applicant brochure). Whether any vacant homesite is offered today is an MLS question: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-28).
Buyers search the section names, while the county record uses plat blocks and Phase 2A, so the same home can appear under different labels. In the Southwest Florida MLS the Development Name reads RENAISSANCE on every record, and the Sub Condo Name reads TERABELLA, VITTORIA, VILLAGIO, MONTEVERDI or TRIANA; Via Lago homes carry RENAISSANCE in that field instead of a section name (Matrix export of October 29, 2026). Search both ways, by the section name and by "Renaissance" with the street. And watch the name traps: the Renaissance condominium on Winkler Avenue, Renaissance Preserve and Villagio at Estero are different places with their own records, and a "Renaissance" in Pelican Bay in Naples is a different community altogether.
With 21 recorded Renaissance sales in 12 months and a spread from a $430,000 Triana condominium to a $2,330,000 Terabella home, the right price depends on the section, the floor plan, the view class, the CDD row and the condition of the house, not on a community median.

Buying a Triana condominium means joining one of four condominium associations as well as the master association, receiving the condominium resale documents with a statutory review right, ordering two estoppel certificates, and insuring the unit with a unit-owner policy beside the association's master policy. Triana's 24-month median was $506,000.
Data updated: October 2026 (Florida DBPR condominium records; Florida Statutes 718.503, 718.116, 718.112 and 553.899; Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis).
Triana is four condominiums, each with its own association: Triana I (DBPR project PR1P026352, 32 units), Triana II (PR70646, 32 units), Triana III (PR70675, 32 units) and Triana IV (PR70951, 34 units), all Active on Sunbiz and sharing one management address (Florida DBPR, Triana project records; Florida DBPR, Triana III, read October 2026). Colonial Homes was the original developer, and Meritage Homes of Florida became the subsequent developer from June 21, 2005 (Florida DBPR, Meritage Homes of Florida license relationships). The first thing we confirm on a Triana address is which of the four condominiums it sits in, because that decides which association's documents you receive.
Under section 718.503, a buyer of a condominium resale who does not receive the declaration, articles, bylaws, rules, the most recent year-end financial information and the other listed documents more than 7 days before signing may cancel within 7 days after receiving them, excluding weekends and holidays, and the right ends at closing. The document set also includes the structural integrity reserve study, or a statement that none is required. We make sure the documents arrive early, because the 7-day right and the inspection period run side by side and the documents are where the assessment, reserves and rules live.
A Triana purchase needs two estoppel certificates, one from the master association and one from the condominium association. Florida caps the fee at $299 per association, plus $119 if expedited and $179 if the account is delinquent (section 718.116; section 720.30851). Neither association publishes its assessment, so the estoppels are the documents that state them. Ask for the condominium association's adopted budget and reserve schedule at the same time, under section 718.112, because the building's insurance and reserves are part of the condominium assessment you will pay.
Florida's milestone inspection law and its structural integrity reserve study requirement apply to condominium buildings of three habitable stories or more (Florida Statutes s. 553.899; s. 718.112). Triana's buildings are two-story on the county's parcel layer, so on the statute text neither requirement reaches them (Lee County, Forerunner parcel layer). That is a reading of the statute, not a statement about any association's filings: whether a Triana association commissioned a reserve study voluntarily is in its budget and reserve schedule, which are not published, so ask for both.
A Triana owner buys a unit-owner (HO-6) policy for the interior and personal property, while the association insures the building under its master policy and passes that cost through the condominium budget. Citizens' flood requirement does not reach condominium unit-owner policies (Citizens, Flood insurance requirement). Before you close, ask the association for its master policy summary and its wind deductible, because a large deductible can turn into a special assessment after a storm, and send both to your insurance agent with the request for an HO-6 quote.
Triana IV's state filings include a December 18, 2006 amendment stating that water and sewer are individually metered and not a common expense; for Triana I to III we found no equivalent statement (Florida DBPR, Triana IV project filings). Ask the association how water is billed for the unit you are buying. The CDD's minutes also mention a Triana painting project planned for 2027; who pays for it, and whether reserves cover it or a special assessment will, is a question for the association's budget before you sign.
Triana owners face two sets of rules: the master association's governing documents and the condominium's own declaration and rules. Neither leasing article is published. If you plan to lease a Triana unit, even seasonally, read both leasing provisions before you write an offer, not after, because the condominium documents you receive under the 7-day right are where the minimum term, the approval process and any limit on the number of leases a year are set.
Finding the right Renaissance home starts with the carrying cost, not the floor plan, because the CDD row, the association layers, the club line and the insurance decide the monthly number. We screen every address against your budget, section, view and club plans, then tour the homes that pass, including ones that reach us before the market.
We start with what you can carry each month, then work backward to a price. That number includes principal and interest, Lee County property tax at the district 047 rate, the CDD row for the lot, the master association assessment from a dated estoppel, the condominium assessment for a Triana unit, the club's resident social dues as the club states them, and quotes for homeowners, wind and, if you choose it or Citizens requires it, flood coverage. The CDD line alone differs by $5,381.74 a year across every product row, from $1,406.77 on a prepaid Villagio lot to $6,788.51 on a Terabella double lot (our arithmetic from the FY 2027 schedule).
Next we narrow the section and the lot. A condominium buyer compares the four Triana condominiums and floor plans from 1,826 to 2,733 heated square feet; a villa buyer compares Villagio golf lots with lots that have neither view; an estate buyer chooses between Terabella, Vittoria, Monteverdi and Via Lago. Then the row: whether the lot is a single lot, a lot and a half or a double lot, and whether the Series 2012 debt was prepaid. Two Villagio homes that look alike can differ by $714.49 a year on the CDD line alone.
Owners sometimes test the market privately before they list. We work through our own network and our brokerage's database to surface pre-market and off-market Renaissance homes, and we tell you about them the day we hear. In a community with 21 recorded sales in 12 months, a home that never reaches the open market can be the best option you see all season.
On each tour we bring the recorded comparables for that section, the CDD row for the parcel, the view class, the FEMA reading, the year built and what it means for the roof and the code edition, and the distance inside the gates to each way out: Vittoria Way, Villagio Way and Via Lago Way sit 0.31 to 0.74 route miles from the Palomino Lane entrance, while Monteverdi Way and Triana Terrace sit about 0.4 from the Mall Loop Road connection (routing-engine estimates). You leave each showing knowing what the home costs to own, not just what it looks like.
Negotiating for a Renaissance buyer means arguing from the recorded sales of the same section, the CDD row on the lot and the documents a seller has or has not produced. We write the offer around what the county record shows comparable homes sold for, and we use the inspection period to collect the documents that change the price.
A Triana unit is priced against the ten Triana sales over 24 months, not against the one $910,000 sale. A Villagio home is priced against five Villagio Way sales in 12 months at $935,000 and 18 over 60 months at $917,500. An estate-block home is priced against 12 sales over 24 months at $1,502,445, and a Via Lago home against 11 sales over 60 months at $1,810,000. We never price a Villagio villa against the community median, and we never set a county price per square foot beside an MLS living-area figure. If a list price sits well above the recorded range for that section, we show the seller the record.
A buyer compares carrying costs, and the CDD row is one of the few that is published. A Via Lago home whose Series 2012 debt was prepaid carries $1,675.64 in FY 2027 against $3,624.28 for one that was not, a difference of $1,948.64 a year through May 2037. When two comparable homes carry different rows, the difference belongs in the price, and we say so in the offer.
We ask every seller for the master association estoppel, the most recent tax bill with its CDD line, any CDD payoff letter, the wind mitigation form, the roof permit and, on a Triana unit, the condominium association's estoppel, budget and master policy summary. We also ask what club membership the seller holds and what the club will convey with the home. A seller who cannot produce a document is a seller whose price should reflect the uncertainty, and we write that into the offer.
We set an inspection period long enough for the estoppel certificates, the Triana condominium documents, the club's written terms, insurance quotes and a roof inspection. We make the financing contingency match your lender's real timeline. On a Triana resale, the 7-day document right under section 718.503 runs alongside the inspection period, and we track both. On an older estate home, we build time for a four-point inspection, because a carrier may ask for one before it writes the policy.
Your deposit is protected by the contract's deadlines. We calendar every one from the effective date, deliver notices in writing and on time, and confirm the escrow agent's receipt. A missed deadline can cost a buyer a deposit; a calendar built on day one prevents it.
Owning in The Renaissance means a CDD line on the Lee County tax bill of $1,406.77 to $6,788.51 in FY 2027 by product row, district 047 property tax at a final 2026 13.3623 mills, solid waste, master association dues and, for Triana, condominium dues, neither published, plus the club's $5,050 resident social dues as the club states them.

Three lines ride on one tax bill (ad valorem, the CDD and solid waste), so a buyer reading the seller's prior-year bill sees most of the government layer in one place. The two association lines and the club line are billed separately and are the ones a buyer must document at contract. The solid waste rate for a Triana unit is not confirmed on the county page.
The CDD assigns every home to a product row, and the row sets the debt line. The operations and maintenance piece is the same $1,251.10 for every home in FY 2027.
| Unit type (CDD wording) | Section | O&M | Debt | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Villa 60 ft, Series 2012 debt prepaid | Villagio | $1,251.10 | $155.67 | $1,406.77 |

| SF 140 ft X 2 | Terabella | $1,251.10 | $5,537.41 | $6,788.51 |
"X 2" is a home on two platted lots and "X 1.5" a lot and a half, each with one combined assessment. The arithmetic checks row by row, for example $1,251.10 + $395.53 = $1,646.63 for Triana and $1,251.10 + $2,768.70 = $4,019.80 for Terabella. In FY 2027 the operations and maintenance cost falls on the 386 homes, and the two golf parcels pay debt service only, $30,337.09 for the clubhouse parcel and $37,875.88 for the playing area.
| Fiscal year | O&M per home | Change |

Sources: CDD Adopted Budget FY 2023; FY 2024; FY 2025; FY 2026; FY 2027. The debt lines have been unchanged on every product row from FY 2023 through FY 2027, since the 2022 refinancing, so a buyer comparing an older tax bill with this year's should expect the operations piece to differ and the debt piece to match.
The debt line repays the Series 2022 Capital Improvement Revenue Refunding Bonds, issued July 15, 2022: $5,545,000 at 4.25 percent, which refunded the Series 2012 bonds and funded irrigation wells (Renaissance CDD, Audit FY 2022). After the May 1, 2026 payment, $4,232,881 is outstanding, and the final payment is due May 1, 2037 (Renaissance CDD, Adopted Budget FY 2027). When the bonds are repaid, the debt line ends; the operations and maintenance line continues for as long as the district maintains the lakes and preserves.
Some owners paid off their share of the old Series 2012 debt, and the CDD's schedule marks those lots with their own rows. A Villagio home whose owner prepaid carries $155.67 of debt in FY 2027 instead of $870.16, a difference of $714.49 a year; a Via Lago home carries $424.54 instead of $2,373.18, a difference of $1,948.64 (Renaissance CDD, Assessments). The prepayment stays with the lot, not with the seller, so a buyer of a prepaid lot keeps the lower row through 2037. Confirm the row on the prior tax bill or by estoppel letter from the district before you rely on it.
The debt piece of the CDD charge can be paid off in full by requesting an estoppel letter from the district, which costs $150; the payoff does not remove the operations and maintenance piece and cannot be reversed (Renaissance CDD, Assessments). Because the debt line is level from FY 2027 through FY 2037, it is 11 annual assessments counting FY 2027. In nominal sums, not a payoff quote:
| Product row | Debt line a year | 11 years, FY 2027 to FY 2037 |
|---|---|---|
| Triana coach home | $395.53 | $4,350.83 |
| Monteverdi | $1,265.69 | $13,922.59 |
| Terabella | $2,768.70 | $30,455.70 |
A payoff figure comes only from the district's estoppel letter for a specific parcel, and it should come in below the nominal sum because interest is not charged on principal repaid early (inferred). A buyer weighing a payoff compares the letter's figure with the cash kept by simply paying the line each November.
Every Renaissance parcel sits in Lee tax district 047. The final 2026 total is 13.3623 mills, against 13.4125 adopted for 2025; for a specific parcel, run it through the Lee County Property Appraiser's estimator at leepa.org. 13.3623 mills is $13.3623 per $1,000 of taxable value, or $1,336.23 per $100,000. Taxable value is the property appraiser's figure after exemptions and caps, which can sit well below a recent sale price for a long-held homestead and resets after a sale, so a buyer's first full bill can be higher than the seller's. Paying the bill in November earns the 4 percent early-payment discount, and it applies to the CDD line too: the Monteverdi CDD charge of $2,516.79 becomes $2,416.12 when paid in November (Lee County Tax Collector, Real Estate Property Taxes).
The table adds the layers that are published. Taxable values are assumptions chosen to show the arithmetic, not estimates of anyone's bill; the millage is the final 2026 13.3623; the CDD line is the FY 2027 adopted figure; solid waste is the FY 2025-26 single-family rate and is not applied to the Triana row.
| Example home | CDD FY 2027 | Taxable value assumed | Ad valorem at 13.3623 mills | Solid waste | Known subtotal a year | Per month | Still unknown |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Triana coach home | $1,646.63 | $400,000 | $5,344.92 | not confirmed for condominiums | $6,991.55 | $582.63 | Master and Triana assessments, insurance |

| Terabella estate home | $4,019.80 | $2,000,000 | $26,724.60 | $366.39 | $31,110.79 | $2,592.57 | Master assessment, insurance |
Add to every row what the public record does not give: the master association assessment, the Triana assessment on the Triana row, the club's resident social dues if billed to the home ($5,050 a year in 2026 per the club; whether they are compulsory by covenant is not on any record read), homeowners and wind coverage (we quote no premiums) and a flood policy if chosen or required.
No master association budget or assessment figure was reachable in any public document on the dates we searched, and no Triana association figure either. We do not print a number for either one, and we do not estimate one. The document that states them is the estoppel certificate, which Florida law requires the association to issue on request at a capped fee. Ask for the estoppels early in the contract period together with the association budgets, because the master budget also shows the gate staffing cost and the road and entrance cost share, and the Triana budget shows the reserves that pay for roofs and painting.
The open cost item is how the operations and maintenance cost will be shared from FY 2028. A new methodology is under study on the October 12, 2026 agenda, and whether the golf parcels will pay O&M again from FY 2028 is open (Renaissance CDD, Meeting Agenda, October 12, 2026). If the golf parcels return to the O&M roll, the per-home share would be spread across more units; if not, it stays on the 386 homes. Seats 1 to 3 on the five-seat board expire in November 2026, so the incoming board inherits that decision. Watch the summer 2027 budget hearing.
The FY 2027 budget funds a capital plan from fund balance: lake bank restoration $250,000, storm drain remediation $30,000, wall analysis and repair $10,000 and aerators $20,000 (Renaissance CDD, Adopted Budget FY 2027). The lake work has its county approval: development order LDO2023-00067, "Renaissance CDD Lakes Restoration", was issued March 13, 2026 (Lee County DCD, Development Orders layer). On a lake lot, ask whether the work behind the home is finished or scheduled.
The Club at Renaissance is a private club owned and operated since September 22, 2022 by Concert Renaissance, LLC, an affiliate of Concert Golf Partners. Its 2026 booklet says community membership is included with a Renaissance home purchase at $5,050 a year in resident social dues; golf is a separate category with its own initiation.
Data updated: October 2026 (The Club at Renaissance 2026 membership booklet, read October 21, 2026; all club figures before 6.5 percent Florida sales tax).
The Club at Renaissance, at 12801 Renaissance Way, is privately owned and operated by Concert Renaissance, LLC, a Florida-registered affiliate of Concert Golf Partners (Concert Golf Partners, The Club at Renaissance). The sale from the original developer closed on September 22, 2022 and was announced on September 27, 2022 as Concert's 27th club (Concert Golf Partners press release, September 27, 2022). The club is not owned by the residents, the Renaissance Community Association or the CDD. For a buyer that means the people who set dues, initiation and categories answer to the owner, not to a member vote.
The club's own wording is the only first-party statement on this point: Community (social) membership "is included with a Renaissance Real Estate purchase", and resident social dues are $5,050 a year in 2026 (The Club at Renaissance, 2026 booklet; Join the Club). What the club says is conveyed with a home purchase is the community membership itself, with its initiation included; what is not conveyed is golf, which is a separate category with its own initiation and dues. Social members get dining, pool, spa and fitness, tennis, pickleball, bocce and social events, with golf events excluded.
What we could not establish from the record is whether the resident social dues are levied by covenant on every lot. The governing instrument is the Amended and Restated Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Renaissance, Lee County Instrument 2021000076510, and its text was not available to read. The club has also said it was negotiating "membership terms" with the master association. Nor does the booklet say whether golf dues replace the $5,050 social dues or are added to them, what Heritage Golf costs, or whether the 6.5 percent sales tax applies to initiation as well as dues. So the accurate reading is the club's sentence as written, plus a document request: before you sign, ask the seller and the club for the membership agreement that applies to the home and the Declaration article that covers the club.
| Category | Eligibility (club wording) | Cap | Initiation | Resident dues | Non-resident dues |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Executive Golf | Primary member 44 and under | 25 | $50,000, one-time, non-refundable | $12,050 | not shown |
| Full Golf | Ages 45 to 75 | 225 | $90,000, one-time, non-refundable | $14,760 | $19,810 |
| Heritage Golf | 76 and over | 25 | not in the booklet | not in the booklet | not in the booklet |
| Community / Social (resident) | Owners of a Renaissance home | none stated | Included with the home purchase, per the club | $5,050 | not applicable |
| Other charges (golf categories) | Private cart trail fee $2,400 a year; member cart fee $32 a round; no food and beverage minimum; no special assessments |
Source: The Club at Renaissance, 2026 Membership Prospects with Pricing, all figures before 6.5 percent Florida sales tax. The age bands are pricing rules of a private club, not an age status for the community.
| Path | Year-one charges before tax | With 6.5 percent on each line |
|---|---|---|
| Community (social) membership with a home purchase | $5,050 (resident social dues; initiation included with purchase) | $5,378.25 |
| Executive Golf (44 and under) | $50,000 initiation + $12,050 dues + $2,400 cart trail fee = $64,450 | $68,639.25 |
| Full Golf (45 to 75) | $90,000 initiation + $14,760 dues + $2,400 cart trail fee = $107,160 | $114,125.40 |
The right column applies the club's note that "all figures exclude 6.5% Florida sales tax" to every line; whether the tax applies to initiation is the club's to confirm. A golf member also pays the $32 member cart fee per round. On the Full Golf path, the open question of whether golf dues replace or add to the social dues is worth $5,050 a year before tax, so ask the membership office in writing.
The booklet caps each golf category: 25 Executive Golf members, 225 Full Golf members and 25 Heritage Golf members. The social category carries no stated cap. Caps matter most for a buyer who wants golf from the first day: if a category is full, the club decides how new owners are admitted, and no waitlist rule or current membership count appears on any record we read. Ask the membership office which categories have openings at the time you write an offer, and make your contract timeline reflect the answer.
The 2026 booklet lists the food and beverage minimum as "None" and special assessments as "None" for the golf categories, and Concert's November 2024 release describes "building and maintaining a thriving club environment with no assessments" (Concert Golf Partners, clubhouse renovation release). Read both as the owner's stated policy for 2026, not as a recorded covenant: dues set annually by the owner are the lever that replaces an assessment in an owner-operated club. The useful question for the club is how dues have moved in recent years and what notice members receive before a change.
No document we read calls The Club at Renaissance an equity club or a non-equity club. The record does show that initiation is stated as non-refundable and the club is owned by a for-profit company that members do not control, which makes it a non-equity club in practice (our inference from those two facts). A buyer is not buying a share of the club's real estate, the owner sets each year's dues and categories, and the value of a golf membership at resale depends on the club's transfer rules rather than a share price.
The Renaissance's course is an 18-hole, par-72 Arthur Hills design that opened in 2003, rated 75.6 with a 147 slope for men from the Championship tees on the Florida State Golf Association record read October 28, 2026, with The 54, a separate par-3 layout, woven through it. The other amenities sit inside the club.
Data updated: October 2026 (Florida State Golf Association rating record read October 28, 2026; The Club at Renaissance pages and 2026 booklet read October 21, 2026).
| Item | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Opened | 2003 | The Club at Renaissance, Our Story |
| Par | 72 | Course Tour and Scorecard |
| Championship rating and slope | 75.6 / 147 (men); 82.3 / 152 (women) | FSGA, read October 28, 2026 |
| Scorecard yardage | About 7,250 yards from the Championship tees | Course Tour and Scorecard |
| Tees | Eight named tees on the scorecard | Course Tour and Scorecard |
| The 54 | Integrated 18-hole par-3 layout, added in the 2020 overhaul | 2026 booklet |
The USGA Slope Rating scale runs from 55 to 155 (USGA National Course Rating Database), so a 147 slope puts the Championship tees near the top of the scale. The forward tees carry lower ratings and slopes on the FSGA record, which is where a golfer finds the rating for the tee they will actually use. The 54 is part of the club, so access follows club membership rather than home ownership.
The club has six red clay tennis courts, with round robins, clinics, lessons and a yearly Member-Guest Tennis Invitational (Tennis). Two lighted pickleball courts arrived with the 2020 overhaul (Pickleball), and the bocce courts sit beside The Turnhouse with a fire pit nearby. Access follows club membership.
The pool is heated and resort-style, with the Rendezvous Pool Pavilion serving lunch and drinks poolside. The club's own pool page says two different things about the season, "Open Memorial Day through Labor Day" in its summary and "year-round pool access" in its body text, so confirm the current hours with the club. The fitness center, the full-service spa, The Rotunda upstairs dining room and The Turnhouse casual room complete the clubhouse (Spa and Fitness; Dining and Social Events). Concert announced a multi-million dollar clubhouse refresh for 2025; we found no record of its completion, so ask the club what is finished and whether any of it is funded by members.
The land a resident sees from most back lanais belongs to the CDD, not the club. The CDD maintains the stormwater lakes, fountains, aerators and drainage structures, the berms, part of the irrigation distribution system and the I-75 perimeter wall, and says it maintains "approximately 160 acres of protected preserves" (Renaissance CDD, Services). A lake maintenance easement of about 20 feet runs around each lake, and inside it owners may not add fences or patios or change the vegetation, a point that matters to anyone planning a pool cage or landscaping on a lake lot.
The Renaissance has no marina, dock, boat ramp or navigable water on any record we read; its lakes are freshwater stormwater lakes held by the CDD (Lee County GIS, Hydrography). The nearest Gulf beach by road is Bunche Beach, 13.7 route miles from the main gate, with Fort Myers Beach at 14.7 miles and the Sanibel Causeway toll plaza at 16.0. A boat owner here needs storage off site or a trailer; whether a trailered boat may be kept at the home is a question for the governing documents and rules, which are not published.
We found no community walking trail, nature trail, dog park or neighborhood clubhouse separate from the club on any record we read. Rules on fishing or kayaking in the lakes are not published. Walkers and cyclists use the private streets inside the gates, and the nearest public boardwalk is Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve, 1.8 route miles from the main gate, with a 1.2-mile elevated, fully accessible boardwalk and parking at $1 an hour, up to $5 a day (Lee County Parks, Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve).
The Renaissance is not designated age-restricted on any record we read: no 55+ designation appears in the zoning resolutions, the master association's articles or the CDD record (Lee County Resolution Z-02-008). The Declaration's use article was not available to us, so confirm in the governing documents. The club's golf categories are banded by age, and those bands are pricing rules of a private club, not a rule about who may own a home.
The Renaissance is governed in three layers: the Renaissance Community Development District, a Chapter 190 special district with five elected supervisors; the Renaissance Community Association, the master homeowners association that owns the guardhouse; and four Triana condominium associations. The club is a separate, privately owned business, and the parties have dated disputes on the record.
Data updated: October 2026 (Renaissance CDD minutes and agendas through October 12, 2026; Sunbiz and DBPR records; settlement and hearing examiner records; read October 21, 2026).
| Layer | Legal form | What it does | What a buyer receives |
|---|---|---|---|
| Renaissance Community Development District | Chapter 190 special district, five elected supervisors; Lee County non-ad valorem taxing authority 187 | Lakes, stormwater, preserves, berms, the I-75 wall, part of the irrigation system | The CDD line on the tax bill; a payoff estoppel letter if requested |

Sources: Renaissance CDD, About; Sunbiz, Renaissance Community Association, Inc., read October 2026. Nobody joins the CDD as a member: it is a unit of local government whose charges ride on the tax bill.
The CDD has five board seats, filled by elected supervisors who must be qualified electors living in the district. Seats 1 to 3 expire in November 2026 and drew no qualified candidates for the election, so the CDD is seeking letters of interest from residents for appointment to the board (Renaissance CDD, November 9, 2026 meeting and upcoming vacancies). Regular meetings are monthly at 9:00 a.m., with the next on November 9, 2026. For a buyer the meetings are where the cost questions are decided: the board adopts the budget and the assessment rates each August.
The master association's Amended and Restated Articles, filed January 24, 2022 and approved by the members on March 9, 2021, give one vote per parcel and the powers a buyer should expect: to make and collect assessments, to maintain and operate the common area, to make and enforce rules, and to "approve or disapprove the transfer, leasing and occupancy of Parcels, but only to the extent provided in the Governing Documents" (Sunbiz, Amended and Restated Articles, read October 2026). No public association website was found, so the association's own documents reach a buyer through the seller and the estoppel request.
The covenants that bind every Renaissance lot are in the Amended and Restated Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Renaissance, Lee County Instrument 2021000076510, which we found cited in a 2024 draft cost-sharing agreement but could not read in full. That gap leaves five questions open, and each has a document that answers it: whether the club's resident social dues are compulsory on every lot by covenant; whether a capital contribution or transfer fee applies on resale; the minimum lease term and any short-term rental limits; pet, vehicle and architectural rules; and the amount of the master assessment itself. A buyer should receive the Declaration and its amendments, the rules and the estoppel certificate before the inspection period ends, and read them in that order.
On April 29, 2002 the developer recorded a Declaration of Easements and Covenant to Share Costs for Renaissance. Under it the club maintains the main entry and the spine road's landscaping, lighting and signage, the master association reimburses 50 percent of the Road Budget and 25 percent of the Entrance Budget, and the association may not disapprove or reduce either budget (Declaration of Easements and Covenant to Share Costs, April 29, 2002, recorded copy posted by the club owner). For a buyer the practical point is that part of the master assessment funds road and entrance work the club performs, so the association's budget, when you receive it, should show that line.
The parties have disputed shared road, entrance and gate costs since 2024. The dated facts, stated without characterising anyone: Concert Renaissance LLC v. Renaissance CDD (Lee Circuit 23-CA-011452, filed October 2023) was settled and dismissed in June 2025, with a refund of the club's 2023-24 and 2024-25 operations and maintenance assessments with interest of $270,358.78, plus $100,000 of fees, financed in part by a $105,000 CDD loan (Renaissance CDD, Audit Report FY 2025; Settlement and Partial Release Agreement). On June 23, 2025 Lee County's hearing examiner found no zoning violation in four code cases (Hearing Examiner signed orders). The same day Concert Renaissance LLC v. Renaissance Community Association, Inc., a breach of contract case, was e-filed; it was described in February 2026 as moving toward settlement, and its outcome is not on any record we found (Renaissance CDD, Meeting Minutes, February 9, 2026).
We take no side in either matter. A buyer reads them as cost and disclosure questions: the CDD settlement explains why the golf parcels pay debt service only in FY 2027, and the open contract case concerns the very cost share the master assessment funds. Ask the association's estoppel and disclosure documents whether any litigation or special assessment is pending, and ask the seller to disclose any notice received. If the case settles before your closing, its terms may change the master budget you are reading.
The verified rule is the association's power to approve or disapprove transfer, leasing and occupancy only to the extent the governing documents provide. The rules themselves, minimum lease terms, short-term rental limits, pet and vehicle rules and the architectural review process, are in the Declaration and the association's rules, which are not published. Triana owners face a second set in their condominium documents. If you plan to lease, read the leasing article before you write an offer; if you plan an exterior change, read the architectural provisions and any zoning amendment that names your lot together.
A Renaissance buyer who finances pays Florida's documentary stamp tax of $0.35 per $100 on the new mortgage and the intangible tax of $0.002 per $1, plus a lender's title policy, survey, inspections, prorations and any association charges the contract assigns. On a $1,136,000 loan at the single-family median, the two state taxes total $6,248.00.
Data updated: October 2026 (Florida Statutes 201.08, 199.133, 720.401, 718.503, 720.30851, 718.116, 190.048 and 689.302; Lee County closing customs; Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis).
Florida charges a documentary stamp tax of $0.35 per $100 (or fraction of $100) of the amount secured by a recorded mortgage under section 201.08, and a nonrecurring intangible tax of two mills, $0.002 per $1, on the new mortgage under section 199.133. Here is the arithmetic at four Renaissance medians with 20 percent down.
| Item, 20 percent down | Triana, $506,000 | Villagio, $917,500 | Single-family, $1,420,000 | Via Lago, $1,810,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Loan amount | $404,800 | $734,000 | $1,136,000 | $1,448,000 |
| Mortgage documentary stamp tax ($0.35 per $100) | $1,416.80 | $2,569.00 | $3,976.00 | $5,068.00 |
| Intangible tax ($0.002 per $1) | $809.60 | $1,468.00 | $2,272.00 | $2,896.00 |
| State taxes on the loan, total | $2,226.40 | $4,037.00 | $6,248.00 | $7,964.00 |
Our arithmetic from the statutory rates; the medians are the Triana 24-month, Villagio 60-month, single-family 12-month and Via Lago 60-month figures from the market section. This is not a closing estimate; your lender's Loan Estimate is the document that binds. A cash buyer pays neither tax.
In Lee County the seller customarily pays the deed documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100 and the owner's title policy, and the buyer pays for the lender's title policy, but the contract controls and the box on the Florida AS IS form is negotiable (Florida Department of Revenue, Documentary Stamp Tax). The owner's policy premium is promulgated by the state: $5.75 per $1,000 up to $100,000, $5.00 per $1,000 from $100,000 to $1,000,000 and $2.50 per $1,000 from $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 (Florida Administrative Code, Rule 69O-186.003).
Budget separately for the lender's title policy, a survey if your lender or title agent requires one, a general inspection, a wind mitigation inspection, a four-point inspection on an older home and, on a lake lot, a look at the bank. The survey also shows where your lot ends and CDD land around a lake or preserve begins, which matters before you plan a pool, a screen cage or a fence near the lake easement.
An estoppel certificate states what an owner owes the association. Florida caps the fee at $299 per association, plus $119 if expedited and $179 if the account is delinquent (section 720.30851; section 718.116). A Triana purchase needs two certificates. The CDD's own payoff estoppel letter, if you want the bond portion quoted, costs $150. Who pays each is a contract term, and we negotiate it.
Under section 720.401, the buyer of a parcel in a mandatory homeowners association must receive the disclosure summary before signing, telling the buyer that recorded covenants govern use and occupancy and that assessments are a lien obligation. If it was not provided first, the buyer may cancel by written notice within 3 days after receiving it or before closing, whichever comes first. The section does not apply to a chapter 718 condominium, where the 7-day resale document right applies instead. We check the right form is attached before you sign.
Under section 190.048, the contract for the initial sale of a parcel in a community development district must carry a disclosure that the district may impose taxes or assessments in addition to county and other local taxes. On a resale the tax bill is the practical disclosure: the CDD line shows the district's charge, and we put the FY 2027 row for the lot in front of you before the offer.
Florida requires a seller of residential property to give the buyer a flood disclosure at or before the contract is signed, covering flood insurance claims, federal flood assistance and the home's flood history as the seller knows it (section 689.302). In a Zone X community it is still worth reading line by line, because a claim history follows the house, not the map.
Lee County taxes are paid in arrears, so the seller credits the buyer for the part of the year the seller owned the home, and the CDD line on the same bill prorates with it. The bill the Tax Collector issues from November 1, 2026 carries the FY 2027 CDD row (our reading of the district's adopted budget and the collection calendar), so a closing now should prorate against the FY 2027 amount for the lot, for example $2,121.26 on a Villagio lot whose debt was not prepaid, not an older year's figure.
Since August 17, 2024, a Renaissance buyer signs a written agreement with their agent before touring a home, and the agent's compensation must be stated, specific and negotiable. Offers of compensation no longer appear on the MLS, but a seller may still agree to pay some or all of it as a term of the purchase.
Data updated: October 2026 (National Association of Realtors settlement materials at nar.realtor; Florida Realtors forms; Florida Statutes 475.278; read October 2026).
The National Association of Realtors' practice changes, effective August 17, 2024, require MLS participants working with a buyer to enter into a written agreement before touring a home. The agreement must state compensation that is objectively ascertainable and not open-ended, and it must say that broker fees are not set by law and are fully negotiable. NAR publishes its explanation at nar.realtor.
Florida Realtors publishes exclusive buyer brokerage agreements for each brokerage relationship a buyer can choose, including a single agent version (Florida Realtors, EBBA-8sa). The purchase itself usually runs on the Florida Realtors and Florida Bar AS IS contract (ASIS-7), with riders for a homeowners association or condominium and for a community development district. Every Renaissance purchase needs the CDD rider, and a Triana purchase the condominium rider as well.
Section 475.278 presumes that licensees operate as transaction brokers unless a single agent or no brokerage relationship is established in writing. A transaction broker owes limited confidentiality and no duty of loyalty. If you want an agent who represents only you in the negotiation, say so and sign the single agent version.
Compensation can come from you or from the seller, but the written agreement controls what your agent may receive from any source. With no builder selling new homes in The Renaissance, every purchase is a resale negotiation with an individual owner, and the seller's contribution is one more term in the offer, weighed against price, closing date and the documents the seller will provide.
We put the agreement in front of you before the first tour, explain the versions in plain language, write a fixed and specific compensation figure, and show you where a seller contribution would offset it. Compensation is then negotiated in the open with everything else in the offer.
Every home and condominium building in The Renaissance maps to FEMA Zone X on panels 12071C0445F and 12071C0433G, the whole community is in Lee County Evacuation Zone D, and homes are built to a 160 mph design wind speed. Unincorporated Lee County holds CRS Class 5, and Citizens requires flood coverage on every wind-covering home policy from January 1, 2027.
Data updated: October 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer and pending revision, Lee County evacuation, surge and wind layers read October 21, 2026; Citizens flood requirement; Florida Statutes 627.7011 and 215.5586).
We checked one point in each section against FEMA's live National Flood Hazard Layer and Lee County's evacuation and surge layers on October 21, 2026:

Sources: FEMA NFHL, Flood Hazard Zones; FEMA NFHL, FIRM Panels; Lee County GIS, Evacuation Zones; Lee County GIS, Storm Surge. A whole-boundary query returned the same Zone X result for every home and condominium building.
The one regulatory floodplain that touches the community is the Six Mile Cypress Slough AE zone. It overlaps about 1.8 acres at the northwest corner of the county boundary polygon, and on Renaissance land it touches only a conservation buffer tract, by about 300 square feet. No home and no address point lies in it. So the accurate statement is that every home and condominium building is in Zone X, not that no part of the community touches a flood zone.
There is no Letter of Map Revision, Letter of Map Amendment or low-confidence area inside the boundary, and FEMA's pending Lee County revision, case 20-04-0036S, scheduled to take effect March 2, 2027, leaves both panels and every zone here unchanged (FEMA Pending NFHL). Lee County's public elevation certificate layer holds no certificate for any building inside the boundary (Lee County DCD, Elevation Certificates). If a seller has one from a survey, ask for it; if not, a flood quote can be run with and without one.
Zone X means FEMA does not map a base flood elevation here and a federally backed mortgage does not require flood insurance on that basis alone. It does not mean water cannot pond in a heavy rain, and a lender or an insurer may still set its own rule. The county's Zone D sheet warns that "heavy rains can flood homes and roads" even in its least vulnerable zone (Lee County Emergency Management, Zone D).
Unincorporated Lee County has been a Community Rating System Class 5 community since October 1, 2007, and kept that rating after FEMA's 2024 review (Lee County, FEMA Community Rating System, read October 2026; OpenFEMA, NFIP Community Status Book). Lee County says the resulting 25 percent discount on National Flood Insurance Program premiums applies to policies inside and outside the special flood hazard area, which includes Zone X homes like these.
Citizens Property Insurance Corporation requires flood coverage on wind-covering personal residential policies outside the special flood hazard area once Coverage A reaches $400,000 from January 1, 2026, and on all such policies from January 1, 2027; condominium unit-owner policies are exempt (Citizens, Flood insurance requirement). For a single-family buyer the planning point is simple: if Citizens may end up as the wind carrier, price a flood policy into the budget from the start.
Florida law says an insurer may not refuse to issue or renew a homeowner's policy solely because the roof is under 15 years old, and for an older roof an authorized inspection showing 5 or more years of useful life remaining keeps the insurer from refusing on age alone (Florida Statutes s. 627.7011). The county roll shows 34 single-family homes built from 2003 to 2004 and 133 from 2005 to 2009, so any of those still on an original roof is well past 15 years. Whether a given roof is original is not on the public record we read; the seller's permit history and a roof inspection answer it.
My Safe Florida Home offers free wind-mitigation inspections and matching grants of up to $10,000 for eligible homestead homes built before January 1, 2008 with an insured value of $700,000 or less, subject to an income test (Florida Statutes s. 215.5586; My Safe Florida Home). Every Villagio home was built from 2003 to 2006 and every Triana building from 2003 to 2007, so those sections clear the age test on the county roll; the insured-value cap and the income test decide the rest.
Lee County places the whole community in Evacuation Zone D, which its own sheet calls "one of our least vulnerable Evacuation Zones", naming "Wind, including tornados" as "the most significant danger in Zone D". Of the 430 address points inside the boundary, 401 fall in the Category 4 surge band and 29, mostly on Villagio Way, in the Category 5 band, on a planning model rather than a prediction. Neither the Ian nor the Milton evacuation order covered Zone D on the records we read (NWS Tampa Bay, Milton impact narratives).
No county, National Weather Service, FEMA or news-of-record document we read names damage to Renaissance homes. That is a statement about the public record, not a claim that no home was ever damaged: a buyer's inspection, the seller's disclosure and the home's permit history speak for a specific house. The CDD's fiscal 2023 audit, the Ian year, records hurricane repair spending and $69,675 of insurance proceeds; its fiscal 2024 audit records $20,599 (Renaissance CDD, FY 2023 audit, Auditor General copy; FY 2024 audit).
Lee County's permitting layer puts the whole community at a 160 mph ultimate design wind speed for Risk Category II buildings, which covers homes, and inside the Florida Building Code's wind-borne debris region (Lee County GIS, Design Wind Speed Zones). Ask the seller which openings carry impact glass and which rely on shutters; the answer feeds straight into the wind mitigation form an insurer reads.
The whole of The Renaissance falls in the School District of Lee County's elementary Zone J, middle Zone EE and high school South sub-zone 1 for 2026-2027. From the Palomino Lane gate it is 2.7 route miles to I-75 Exit 131, 4.5 to Gulf Coast Medical Center and 6.7 to the airport terminal.
Data updated: October 2026 (School District of Lee County 2026-2027 enrollment zones and plan, FLDOE 2026 school grades, read October 21, 2026; route miles measured on OpenStreetMap roads with the OSRM engine at free flow).
Lee County runs a choice plan with proximity zones rather than a fixed attendance boundary for each school, and the whole community returned one zone at each level at every point tested and across the full boundary (School District of Lee County, School Proximity Zones 2026-2027; Student Enrollment Plan 2026-2027). Triana addresses fall in the same zones.

Parents rank the schools in their zone on the district's Choice Application. Elementary students receive transportation only for elementary schools within their residential proximity zone, and middle school transportation is provided only within the middle school proximity zone. The district's 2026-27 transportation table shows all four S1 high schools running buses for S1 students (School District of Lee County, Transportation Optimization). A listing remark that says a Renaissance home is "zoned for" one named school is not how the Lee County plan works, so confirm any address with the district's Student Enrollment office before you write a contract that depends on a school.
The 2026-2027 plan places International Baccalaureate programs at Dunbar High and Fort Myers High, Cambridge programs at Cypress Lake High and South Fort Myers High, and an arts program at Cypress Lake High, so all three program types sit inside the S1 list a Renaissance student ranks. Program seats are applied for separately, and the application window opens in mid-January.

Route miles are routing-engine estimates, not drive times: traffic on Daniels Parkway, construction at the interchange through 2028 and the season make any minute figure misleading. Whether the Mall Loop Road connection is a staffed gate, a resident-only gate or an exit is not on any record we read, so those bracketed figures are for orientation only.
Gulf Coast Medical Center, 4.5 route miles from the main gate, is the closest full hospital; its own Lee Health page describes a Level II Trauma Center (Lee Health, Gulf Coast Medical Center, read October 21, 2026). Lee Convenient Care on Metro Parkway, the nearest urgent care on Lee Health's list, is 4.2 route miles away, and HealthPark Medical Center and Golisano Children's Hospital share a campus 10.0 route miles away. Every Lee Health page we read carried a notice that beginning January 1, 2027, Lee Health hospitals and physicians will be out of network with UnitedHealthcare; if your plan is a UnitedHealthcare product, check its network directly.
The everyday cluster sits around the Daniels Parkway and Palomino Lane intersection: Publix on Fiddlesticks Boulevard at 1.3 route miles and Whole Foods Market on Daniels at 3.5. Bell Tower is 5.2 route miles away and Gulf Coast Town Center 6.6. The Renaissance sits between the two Lee County spring training homes, JetBlue Park at 4.0 route miles and Hammond Stadium at 4.3, and Lakes Park, with its Wednesday farmers market from October to May, is 7.3 (Lee County Parks, Lakes Park).
Every sample point inside The Renaissance falls in the Lee County Utilities water and wastewater service areas (Lee County Utilities, service area layers). The community is in Lee County Solid Waste Service Area 3. The guardhouse belongs to the master association, which provides the gatehouse personnel; gate hours, guest and vendor procedures and any transponder system are not published in any document we could reach. Every internal street is coded privately maintained on the county road layer, and who owns the residential street pavement itself is not on any record we read.
Southwest Florida International Airport is 6.7 route miles away, but no airport noise zone and no airspace notification buffer on Lee County's layers covers The Renaissance (Lee County DCD, Airport Noise Zones and Airspace Notification Buffers). That is a statement about the county's mapped zones, not a promise about what you will hear on a given afternoon, so a buyer who cares should stand on the lanai at different times of day.
Around The Renaissance the county record shows a pending rezoning for up to 360 multifamily units beside the golf maintenance tract, the approved 1,234-unit Daniels Town Square across Daniels Parkway, a diverging diamond at I-75 Exit 131 through summer 2028, and the Three Oaks Parkway Extension reaching Daniels at Palomino Lane.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County zoning case and development order records; FDOT District One project page updated October 16, 2026; read October 21, 2026).
Approved does not mean built, and pending does not mean approved. We state the status each record shows on the date we read it and make no claim about what any project does to Renaissance home values.
Lee County case DCI2024-00042, "Daniel's Parkway Multifamily," asks to rezone about 19.48 acres at the northeast corner of Palomino Lane and Kings Crossing Road from commercial planned development (CPD) to mixed-use planned development (MPD). The request allows either up to 360 multifamily units at up to 60 feet and 4 stories, or 95,000 square feet of retail plus 80,000 square feet of office. The applicant's own filing says the adjacent Renaissance land is the golf maintenance facility and golf course, and shows 15-foot Type D buffers on that side (DCI2024-00042 additional information, March 23, 2026). An extension letter filed October 15, 2026 sets the resubmittal due date at December 18, 2026; no hearing is scheduled on the record (DCI2024-00042 extension letter).
Daniels Town Square is an approved mixed-use planned development about 0.16 mile south of The Renaissance, across Daniels Parkway. Lee County adopted Resolution Z-24-027 on December 4, 2024, entitling 1,234 dwelling units, a 200-room hotel and 30,000 square feet of commercial space (Lee County BCC Resolution Z-24-027). The resolution ties vertical development to the Three Oaks Parkway Extension, so the road comes first. An entitlement is a ceiling, not a construction schedule.
FDOT project 446296-2 is converting the I-75 interchange at Daniels Parkway, Exit 131, into a diverging diamond interchange, at about $42.8 million, with construction from early 2026 and completion in summer 2028 (FDOT District One, project 446296-2). For a Renaissance owner the trade is plain: lane shifts at the exit closest to the gates until summer 2028, then a rebuilt interchange.
Lee County project 204053, the Three Oaks Parkway Extension, carries Three Oaks Parkway north to Daniels Parkway at the Palomino Lane and Fiddlesticks Boulevard alignment and widens Daniels to eight lanes at that intersection (Lee County DOT, Summary of Major Road Projects FY 26 to 30). Palomino Lane is the road the main gate opens onto, so the new intersection at its south end changes how Renaissance traffic reaches Daniels.
Read the latest county file on DCI2024-00042 before you choose a lot near the golf maintenance tract or Palomino Lane, drive the Daniels corridor at the hours you will use it, and budget patience at Exit 131 until 2028. None of these projects sits inside the gates, and the one inside-the-gates approval on the record, the CDD's lake bank restoration, is maintenance rather than new building.
The Renaissance and Fiddlesticks Country Club are both gated private golf communities in ZIP 33912, about 1.7 miles apart across Daniels Parkway. The Renaissance has one Arthur Hills course, an owner-operated club with optional golf and a CDD line; Fiddlesticks has 36 holes inside a member-owned equity club with no CDD.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis; our Fiddlesticks Country Club page, byline September 2026).
Fiddlesticks Country Club is the golf community buyers most often weigh against The Renaissance. Every Fiddlesticks figure below comes from our own Fiddlesticks page or from the county benchmark run on the same files as The Renaissance, so read each row against its own label.
| Factor | The Renaissance | Fiddlesticks Country Club |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 385 homesites on about 507 acres | 582 homes on 640.1 acres (our Fiddlesticks page) |
| Club ownership | Owner-operated by a Concert Golf Partners affiliate since September 2022 | Member-owned equity club; the club corporation is the community association (our Fiddlesticks page) |
| Joining | Community membership included with a home purchase per the club; Full Golf $90,000 initiation, non-refundable (2026) | $115,000 joining fee, mandatory membership (our Fiddlesticks page) |
| Ongoing club cost | Resident social dues $5,050; Full Golf resident dues $14,760 (2026, before tax) | About $2,180 a month across dues lines (our Fiddlesticks page) |
| Golf | 18 holes, par 72, 75.6 / 147 (men, FSGA), plus The 54 par-3 layout | 36 holes on two courses; the Long Mean closed March 1, 2026 for a $10 million reconstruction (our Fiddlesticks page) |

Renaissance sources: the county roll and recorded sales by our analysis; The Club at Renaissance 2026 Membership booklet; Renaissance CDD FY 2027 Adopted Budget; FEMA NFHL.
On the county record, by our analysis, The Renaissance's 13 single-family sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026 recorded a $1,420,000 median at $383.73 per heated square foot, and the 30 Fiddlesticks single-family sales recorded an $850,000 median at $242.37. Those two rows are like for like: same tool, same files, same window. Our Fiddlesticks page also reports an MLS estate segment for September 2026; that is an MLS figure on a different basis and is never set against the Renaissance county median.
A buyer who wants golf as an option on top of a social membership, a single high-slope championship course with a par-3 layout, a choice of six distinct product sections from a condominium to an estate lot, and a district line that can be priced by lot today is weighing The Renaissance. Add the CDD row and the unpublished master assessment before comparing totals.
A buyer who wants a member-owned equity membership, two full courses and no special district, and who accepts a mandatory membership with a larger joining fee and a board approval step, is weighing Fiddlesticks. We represent buyers in both, and we put the full cost stack for a specific home on each side of one page before you choose.
| Community | 12-month sales | Median | $ per heated sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Renaissance, single-family | 13 | $1,420,000 | $383.73 |
| Heritage Palms Golf and Country Club, single-family | 12 | $727,500 | $336.57 |
| Paseo, all residential (746 of 887 parcels condominiums) | 51 | $342,500 | $219.45 |
Same tool, same county files, same 12 months (Lee County Property Appraiser roll (October 4, 2026) and Lee County recorded qualified sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis). Paseo shares The Renaissance's north boundary, and Heritage Palms is about 1.4 miles away; read Paseo against The Renaissance's all-residential $330.74, not its single-family row.
Current Renaissance listings change weekly, so we publish the recorded market by section instead of a list of homes that goes stale. On October 29, 2026 the Southwest Florida MLS showed 13 active listings, 11 single-family homes and 2 Triana condominiums, at a median ask of $2,349,900 (from $745,000 to $4,299,000), plus 2 pending Triana sales. We pull the live list for your section, floor plan and price on the day you call.

A Renaissance buyer consultation is a working session, not a sales meeting: we build your monthly carrying number, screen the six sections against it, flag the CDD row, club, association and insurance questions for each address, and give you the document list. There is no charge and no obligation.
A carrying-cost model with the CDD row separated from the tax line and the association figures marked as estoppel items; recorded comparables for the homes you are considering; the section, plat and CDD row for any address you name; the club's 2026 terms laid out by path; a first read on insurability; and an estimate of your cash to close with the state taxes worked out.
Your timing, how you are financing, whether you will homestead or use the home seasonally, whether you want a Triana condominium or a single-family home, whether golf membership matters and in which category, whether you are selling a Florida home, and whether you plan to lease the home.

These are the questions Renaissance buyers search for and ask us most, each answered from the records cited in this guide: the Lee County record, the CDD's adopted budget, the club's 2026 booklet, the association's articles, FEMA and the School District of Lee County. Where a fact is not published, the answer says so plainly.
Get pre-approved, sign a written buyer agreement before touring, and check each address's section, CDD row, view class and FEMA reading. Use an inspection period long enough for the master estoppel, the Triana documents on a condominium, the club's written terms and insurance quotes. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 to start.
No. The Renaissance is in unincorporated Lee County with a Fort Myers mailing address in ZIP 33912, in Lee tax district 047. The City of Fort Myers limit touches the community's edge on the north and northwest, but The Renaissance itself is unincorporated, so county government issues the permits and sets the zoning.
In the 12 months to September 25, 2026 the county recorded 21 sales at a $910,000 median, from $430,000 to $2,330,000. The 13 single-family homes sold at a $1,420,000 median, and Triana condominiums recorded a $506,000 median on 10 sales over 24 months (Lee County recorded sales, our analysis).
A Triana coach-home condominium. Triana recorded 10 sales over 24 months at a $506,000 median, from $430,000 to $910,000, and its CDD row is $1,646.63 in FY 2027. A Triana owner also pays a condominium assessment that is not published, so the estoppel and budget belong in the comparison.
Villagio recorded 5 sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026 at a $935,000 median, from $640,000 to $1,060,000, and 18 sales over 60 months at a $917,500 median and $346.15 per square foot of county heated area. All 59 homes were built from 2003 to 2006 under one builder program.
The estate blocks, Terabella, Vittoria and Monteverdi, recorded 12 sales over 24 months to September 25, 2026 at a $1,502,445 median, from $890,000 to $4,200,000, at $475.97 per heated square foot. The $4,200,000 sale was a 2017 Terabella Way home of 4,691 heated square feet in October 2024.
Via Lago recorded 11 sales over 60 months to September 25, 2026 at a $1,810,000 median, from $1,580,000 to $2,500,000, at $503.31 per square foot of county heated area, the highest section median in the community. Its one sale in the 12 months was a 2020 home at $1,590,000.
The March 24, 2026 sale at $910,000 was one Triana III floor plan of 2,732 heated square feet built in 2005, coded qualified by the appraiser. The same floor plan sold at $635,000 in May 2026 and $480,000 in July 2026, so that sale is not the price of a Triana unit; the 24-month median of $506,000 is the figure to price from.
Not as a builder phase. The county record shows no builder-direct sale since 2021 (an estimate), and all 21 sales in the 12 months were resales. Six vacant homesites remain on the 2026 roll, one on Terabella Way, one on Vittoria Way and four on Monteverdi Way, so new construction means a custom home on one of them.
Start with the product, then the costs. Triana for a condominium at a $506,000 median; Villagio for a detached villa with the most comparable resales; Monteverdi for a golf view on 43 of its 52 lots; Terabella and Vittoria for the largest lots; Via Lago for a newer home, often on a lake. Then line up each section's CDD row.
For FY 2027 the Renaissance CDD totals by product row, operations plus debt, run from $1,406.77 for a Villagio villa with prepaid Series 2012 debt to $6,788.51 for a Terabella double lot. Typical rows: Triana $1,646.63, Villagio $2,121.26, Monteverdi $2,516.79, Vittoria $2,833.22, Via Lago $3,624.28 and Terabella $4,019.80.
Read the CDD line on the seller's most recent Lee County tax bill and match it to the district's FY 2027 schedule, or request an estoppel letter from the district. The row tells you whether the lot is a single lot, a lot and a half or a double lot, and whether the Series 2012 debt was prepaid, which lowers the debt line.
The Series 2022 refunding bonds had $4,232,881 outstanding after the May 1, 2026 payment, and the final payment is due May 1, 2037. The debt line on each home ends then. The operations and maintenance line, $1,251.10 per home in FY 2027, continues for as long as the district maintains the lakes and preserves.
Yes. The debt piece can be paid off in full by requesting an estoppel letter from the district, which costs $150. The payoff does not remove the operations and maintenance piece and cannot be reversed. Only the district's letter for a specific parcel gives the payoff figure; compare it with simply paying the line each November.
The Renaissance Community Association, the master association, does not publish its assessment in any document we could reach, and the four Triana condominium associations do not publish theirs either. The estoppel certificate states the current figure, so request it, and for a Triana unit a second one, before relying on any number you see elsewhere.
Not on any record we read. Whether one applies on resale is set in the Declaration's assessments article, Lee County Instrument 2021000076510, which we could not read in full. Ask for it with the estoppel certificate, which should show any amount due at closing, before your inspection period ends.
The Renaissance is in Lee tax district 047, with a final 2026 total of 13.3623 mills, or $1,336.23 per $100,000 of taxable value, against 13.4125 adopted for 2025. Taxable value resets after a sale, so a buyer's first full bill can be higher than the seller's. Paying in November earns a 4 percent discount.
The published layers on our worked examples run from $6,996.15 a year for a Triana unit at an assumed $400,000 taxable value to $31,133.79 for a Terabella home at an assumed $2,000,000, before the master assessment, the Triana assessment, the club's $5,050 resident social dues and insurance, none of which the public record states for a specific home.
No document we read requires golf membership to buy. The club's 2026 booklet says community (social) membership "is included with a Renaissance Real Estate purchase," with resident social dues of $5,050 a year. Whether those dues are compulsory by covenant on every lot is not on any record we read, so ask for the Declaration article.
Per the club's 2026 booklet, before 6.5 percent Florida sales tax: Full Golf, ages 45 to 75 and capped at 225, at a $90,000 one-time, non-refundable initiation and $14,760 in resident dues; Executive Golf, 44 and under and capped at 25, at $50,000 and $12,050; plus a $2,400 annual cart trail fee and a $32 member cart fee per round.
The 2026 booklet does not say whether golf dues replace the $5,050 resident social dues or are added to them. On the Full Golf path that question is worth $5,050 a year before tax, so ask the club's membership office in writing before you sign, together with whether sales tax applies to initiation.
No document we read calls it an equity club. Initiation is stated as non-refundable, and the club is owned by a for-profit company, Concert Renaissance, LLC, that members do not control, which makes it a non-equity club in practice. That reading is our inference from the club's booklet and the state corporate record.
The club's 2026 booklet lists the food and beverage minimum as "None" and special assessments as "None" for the golf categories. Read both as the owner's stated policy for 2026, not as a recorded covenant: in an owner-operated club, the dues the owner sets each year are the lever that replaces an assessment.
The course is an 18-hole, par-72 Arthur Hills design that opened in 2003, rated 75.6 with a 147 slope for men from the Championship tees on the Florida State Golf Association record read October 28, 2026, near the top of the USGA scale of 55 to 155. The 54, a separate 18-hole par-3 layout, is woven through it.
Yes. Lee County's subdivision record flags The Renaissance as gated, and the guardhouse belongs to the Renaissance Community Association, which provides the gatehouse personnel. The main entrance is on Palomino Lane. A second private connection reaches Mall Loop Road; its gate status is not on any record we read.
The Renaissance is not designated age-restricted on any record we read: no 55+ designation appears in the zoning resolutions, the master association's articles or the CDD record. The club's age-banded golf categories are pricing rules of a private club, not a community designation.
The master association may approve or disapprove transfer, leasing and occupancy "only to the extent provided in the Governing Documents." The minimum lease term and any short-term rental rules sit in the Declaration and the association's rules, which are not published, and a Triana unit has a second set, so read both before you buy.
Pet rules are in the Declaration and the association's rules, which are not published, and a Triana unit adds the condominium's own rules. Ask for the pet provisions in writing during the inspection period, with the leasing and architectural articles, so the answer comes from the governing documents rather than a listing remark.
The condominium resale documents under section 718.503: the declaration, articles, bylaws, rules, the latest year-end financial information and the reserve study or a statement that none is required. If they arrive less than 7 days before you sign, you may cancel within 7 days after receiving them, excluding weekends and holidays, until closing.
The homeowners association disclosure summary under section 720.401, telling you that recorded covenants govern use and occupancy and that assessments are a lien obligation. If it was not provided first, you may cancel within 3 days after receiving it or before closing, whichever comes first. The seller's flood disclosure under section 689.302 comes at or before the contract.
In Lee County the seller customarily pays the owner's title policy and the deed documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100, and the buyer pays for the lender's title policy. The contract controls, and the box on the Florida AS IS form is negotiable. The owner's policy premium is set by the state's promulgated rates.
A financed buyer pays the mortgage documentary stamp tax of $0.35 per $100 and the intangible tax of $0.002 per $1, plus the lender's title policy, survey, inspections, prorations and any association charges the contract assigns. On a $1,136,000 loan at the single-family median, the two state taxes total $6,248.00.
Florida caps the association estoppel fee at $299 per association, plus $119 if expedited and $179 if the account is delinquent. A Triana purchase needs two certificates, one from the master association and one from the condominium association. Who pays each is a contract term we negotiate.
Yes. Since August 17, 2024, the National Association of Realtors' practice changes require a written agreement with your agent before touring a home, stating compensation that is specific and negotiable. In Florida, ask for the single agent version if you want an agent who represents only you.
Every home and condominium building in The Renaissance maps to FEMA Zone X, an area of minimal flood hazard, on panels 12071C0445F and 12071C0433G. One sliver of the Six Mile Cypress Slough AE floodplain touches a conservation buffer tract by about 300 square feet; no home lies in it, and the pending 2027 revision leaves both panels unchanged.
A federally backed lender does not require it in Zone X on that basis alone, but Citizens requires flood coverage on wind-covering policies outside the special flood hazard area at Coverage A of $400,000 or more from January 1, 2026, and on all such policies from January 1, 2027. Condominium unit-owner policies are exempt.
The whole of The Renaissance is in Lee County Evacuation Zone D, which the county calls "one of our least vulnerable Evacuation Zones," naming wind as the main danger there. Neither the Ian nor the Milton evacuation order covered Zone D on the records we read.
No county, NWS, FEMA or news-of-record document we read names damage to homes in The Renaissance. The CDD's audits record hurricane repair spending in fiscal 2023, with $69,675 of insurance proceeds. For a specific home, the seller's disclosure, the permit history and your inspection are the documents that answer it.
We print no premium figures, because none was read from a primary source. A premium here moves on wind mitigation features, roof age, the flood choice and the product. Get quotes during the inspection period with the wind mitigation report, a four-point inspection on an older home and, for Triana, the master policy summary.
For 2026-2027 the whole community falls in elementary Zone J (Ray V. Pottorf, Treeline, Gateway, Colonial), middle Zone EE (Paul Laurence Dunbar Middle, Fort Myers Middle) and high school South sub-zone 1 (Cypress Lake, Fort Myers, Dunbar and South Fort Myers High). Parents rank schools on the district's Choice Application.
From the Palomino Lane gate it is 2.7 route miles to I-75 Exit 131 and 6.7 to the airport terminal; from the Mall Loop Road connection the same trips are 1.6 and 5.6 miles (routing-engine estimates). FDOT is rebuilding Exit 131 as a diverging diamond, with completion in summer 2028.
Gulf Coast Medical Center, a Lee Health hospital with a Level II Trauma Center, is 4.5 route miles from the main gate, and Lee Convenient Care on Metro Parkway is 4.2. HealthPark Medical Center and Golisano Children's Hospital share a campus 10.0 route miles away (routing-engine estimates).
No. The Renaissance has no marina, dock, boat ramp or navigable water on any record we read; its lakes are freshwater stormwater lakes held by the CDD. The nearest Gulf beach by road is Bunche Beach, 13.7 route miles from the main gate, with Fort Myers Beach at 14.7.
A pending rezoning, DCI2024-00042, for up to 360 multifamily units beside the golf maintenance tract on Palomino Lane; the approved 1,234-unit Daniels Town Square across Daniels Parkway; the Exit 131 diverging diamond through summer 2028; and the Three Oaks Parkway Extension reaching Daniels at Palomino Lane.
Concert Renaissance LLC v. Renaissance CDD was settled and dismissed in June 2025. On June 23, 2025, Concert Renaissance LLC v. Renaissance Community Association, Inc., a breach of contract case, was e-filed; it was described in February 2026 as moving toward settlement, and its outcome is not on any record we found. Ask the association's documents about pending litigation.
On the same county basis over 12 months, Renaissance single-family homes sold at a $1,420,000 median and $383.73 per heated square foot, Fiddlesticks at $850,000 and $242.37. The Renaissance has one course plus The 54, an owner-operated club and a CDD line; per our Fiddlesticks guide, Fiddlesticks has 36 holes, a member-owned equity club and no CDD.
Across the 21 MLS closings in the 12 months to October 29, 2026, the median Renaissance home took 149 days on market and sold for 93.42 percent of its final list price; single-family homes took 203.5 days at 93.73 percent (Southwest Florida MLS, Matrix export of October 29, 2026). The county record shows low turnover, 21 recorded sales in 12 months across 385 homesites, so a single listing can be the only comparable in its section.
On October 29, 2026 the Southwest Florida MLS showed 13 active Renaissance listings and 2 pending sales, about 7.4 months of supply at the 12-month pace (our arithmetic). We pull the live list for your section and price on the day you call, and you can see Fort Myers listings on our team's site. Call Marc at (239) 287-5873 for a guided short list.
Many Renaissance buyers are also selling a Florida home, and the two sales need one plan: the sale price funds the purchase, the closing dates must line up, and a Florida homestead may carry portable Save Our Homes savings into the new home if you apply within the deadline the law sets (section 193.155). We run both sides together.
If your current home is in The Renaissance, start with a free Renaissance home valuation, or read our guide to selling your home in The Renaissance. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072. If you are still weighing the wider city, our guide to buying a home in Fort Myers shows how we handle the same questions across the market. A sale-contingent offer is weaker than a clean one, so we model the timeline and the portability filing first. To file homestead on the new home, start with the Lee County Property Appraiser.
