The Vasari Country Club community guide covers the club, the history and the master plan. What follows is the buyer’s side: the county’s recorded sales by section, every layer of cost, the documents to hold before you sign, the flood and storm facts for the home site, the carrying-cost arithmetic and the deadlines that decide what you pay.

What a buyer’s agent is for in Vasari

In Vasari the expensive mistakes are rarely cosmetic. They are writing an offer before the estoppel and resale package are in hand, comparing a $332,500 Matera condominium with a $1,125,000 single-family home as if they were one market, taking the Master Association dues from a listing or a neighbor instead of the association’s 2026 fee schedule and the estoppel, forgetting that the CDD bill arrives on the county tax bill, or trusting a flood zone read from a map label instead of the lender’s determination for the exact address. Our job is to price those differences into the offer while you can still act on them.

Who you actually work with

Jesse and Marc handle their own buyers, and the person who tours with you is the person who negotiates. Marc leads buyer representation and negotiation; Jesse leads listing and seller strategy, which matters if you are selling one home to buy another. 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.

Key Takeaways: What Should a Vasari Country Club Buyer Know First?

These ten points shape every offer we write in Vasari Country Club, the gated Bonita Springs golf community of 766 homes. Each comes from a recorded document, a public budget, a federal map or a county sale record, and each is sourced in the section that explains it.

Data updated: October 2026. Sources: Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; Vasari CDD FY2026 adopted and FY2027 proposed budgets; the association’s 2026 fee schedule and quarterly fee sheet; Lee County Property Appraiser 2026 Taxing District Millage Book, printed October 9, 2026; FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer read October 10, 2026; FDOT project 452544-1.

  • Vasari has 766 homes, 194 single-family and 572 condominium units in 15 recorded projects and 95 two-story buildings, on about 375.83 acres, built 2002 to 2007 by Taylor Woodrow Communities, according to the Florida condominium register and the Lee County parcel layer.
  • Two markets share one gate. Lee County recorded 35 sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026 at a $400,000 median, but condominiums sold at a $352,000 median (29 sales) and single-family homes at a $1,125,000 median over 24 months (13 sales).
  • Club membership comes with the home and cannot be sold separately; the Master Association owns the clubhouse and golf tracts of record, and the club states no separate initiation fee and no food and beverage minimum in its Questions and Answers.
  • The Master Association’s 2026 dues are $13,601.02 a home, and village or condominium dues run $466.72 to $2,415 a quarter by neighborhood, per the association’s 2026 fee schedule and quarterly fee sheet. Neither is on the club’s public site, so the estoppel certificate and resale package confirm them for an address.
  • A buyer new to Vasari pays a $12,000 capital contribution at closing ($6,000 for an existing member), which reads as the Resale Transfer Fee the 2024 restated declaration lets the board set (our inference; declaration, recorded August 23, 2024).
  • The Vasari CDD bills $1,709.34 to $2,578.52 a home in FY2026; its bonds are scheduled to be paid off on May 1, 2027, and the proposed FY2027 bill is $1,463.77 to $1,982.66.
  • At the $400,000 community median, county tax at the 2026 rate of 12.7942 mills is $5,117.68. With the CDD that is $6,827.02 to $7,696.20 a year on the FY2026 assessment and $6,581.45 to $7,100.34 on the proposed FY2027 assessment, before association dues and insurance; the Master Association, village and CDD layers alone are $17,785.21 to $25,448.28 a year.
  • Every one of the 766 home sites we tested sits in FEMA Zone X, and Lee County places Vasari in evacuation Zone B (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer).
  • Leases must run at least 30 days, no more than six a year, and the master declaration as read has no age restriction. Village and condominium documents may be stricter.
  • FDOT’s I-75 widening runs along Vasari’s eastern edge, with public hearings scheduled for October 27 and 28, 2026 (FDOT project 452544-1).

This Vasari Country Club buyer guide for Bonita Springs runs from the market, the MLS pace and the all-in cost of owning a home, through the CDD, the documents and the Worthington comparison, to flood, insurance, closing costs, financing and negotiation.

How Do You Buy a Home in Vasari Country Club in 2026?

You buy a home in Vasari Country Club, Bonita Springs, in a short sequence: set the monthly number, choose condominium or single-family, sign a written buyer agreement, write the offer subject to the estoppel and resale package, inspect, finance, and close at a Lee County title company. Each step has a deadline, and the documents set the price.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Florida Realtors and The Florida Bar AS IS contract (ASIS-7); Lee County recorded sales, our analysis, through September 25, 2026.

Step one: the monthly number

We start with the full monthly cost you are comfortable with: the mortgage at today’s rate, the county tax bill at your purchase price, the CDD assessment for the address, the Master Association dues, any village or condominium association dues, and homeowners, wind and flood insurance. In Vasari those dues are known: the Master Association’s 2026 dues are $13,601.02 a year, and village or condominium dues run $466.72 to $2,415 a quarter by neighborhood, per the association’s 2026 fee schedule and quarterly fee sheet. We price the address with those figures and then confirm them against the estoppel before the inspection period ends.

Step two: the product

The 572 condominium units sit in 95 two-story buildings and recorded a $352,000 median over 12 months. The 194 single-family homes recorded a $1,125,000 median over 24 months. The two have different association layers, different insurance structures and different CDD classes, so the product decision comes before the price decision.

Step three: the written buyer agreement

Since the August 2024 National Association of Realtors practice changes, a buyer who tours a home with a participating agent signs a written agreement first, and compensation is negotiated and stated in it. We cover the terms in the compensation section below and give you the Florida Realtors form to read before you sign anything.

Step four: the offer and the contract

On the Florida AS IS contract the initial deposit is due within 3 days of the effective date, the additional deposit within 10 days, the inspection period is 15 days unless the parties change it, the loan application is due within 5 days and the loan approval period defaults to 30 days (Florida Realtors and The Florida Bar, ASIS-7 contract). For Vasari we add a rider that makes the purchase subject to your review of the estoppel certificate, the resale package, the governing documents and the CDD class, with a termination right if they differ from what you were told.

Step five: inspection, financing and closing

Inspection, insurance quotes, the lender’s flood determination and the condominium financing review run inside the contract’s review periods. We calendar every deadline in writing on day one. Closing happens at a title company, and the cost sections below show the Florida taxes and fees that apply.

What Does the Vasari Country Club Market Look Like for Buyers?

The Vasari Country Club market in Bonita Springs recorded 35 sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, at a median of $400,000, from $190,000 to $1,750,000, in Lee County records. That single median blends two markets: condominiums at a $352,000 median and single-family homes at $1,125,000 over 24 months.

The 12-month county record

Across the 12 months from September 26, 2025 to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded 35 sales among the 766 Vasari homes, at a median of $400,000 and $249.53 per square foot of county heated area. All 35 were resales, with no builder-direct sales. By use, 29 were condominiums, with a median of $352,000, and 6 were single-family homes, priced from $850,000 to $1,750,000. Six sales are too few for a median, so single-family pricing below uses the 24-month window.

Vasari Country Club recorded sales, Lee County, windows to September 25, 2026

Product or section Homes Window Sales Median Range Median per county heated sq ft
Whole community 766 12 months 35 $400,000 $190,000 to $1,750,000 $249.53

Trieste 108 24 months 10 $350,000 $272,500 to $405,000 $230.09

Each row uses the shortest window with 10 or more recorded sales, so windows differ by row. Per-square-foot figures use the county’s heated area, not MLS living area.

What the price bands tell a buyer

Of the 35 sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, 1 was under $200,000, 2 were from $200,000 to $300,000 and 13 were from $300,000 to $400,000. Another 3 were from $400,000 to $500,000, 5 from $500,000 to $750,000, 8 from $750,000 to $1,000,000, and 3 at $1,000,000 and up. The largest single band, $300,000 to $400,000, holds 13 of the 35 sales.

Price band, 12 months Sales
Under $200,000 1
$200,000 to $300,000 2
$300,000 to $400,000 13
$400,000 to $500,000 3
$500,000 to $750,000 5
$750,000 to $1,000,000 8
$1,000,000 and up 3

How the median moved, 2019 to 2026

Calendar year Sales Median
2019 44 $304,352
2020 54 $316,200
2021 101 $349,900
2022 55 $595,000
2023 39 $650,000
2024 31 $730,000
2025 28 $500,000
2026 to September 25 29 $400,000

The blended median moves with how many single-family homes sold that year, because one product costs about three times the other. Single-family sales are under ten in every year since 2021, so we give ranges, not medians: 9 sales from $975,000 to $1,700,000 in 2022, 5 from $1,125,000 to $1,925,000 in 2023, 9 from $1,050,000 to $2,120,000 in 2024, 6 from $900,000 to $1,400,000 in 2025 and 4 from $850,000 to $1,750,000 in 2026 to date. The drop in the blended median from 2024 to 2026 mostly reflects fewer single-family sales in the mix, so the table is not a price-change measure.

What the MLS adds: days on market, discount and supply

The county record shows what closed and at what price. It does not show how long a home sat, how close the price came to the list price, or how many homes are listed today. The Southwest Florida MLS (Matrix), development VASARI, pull of October 21, 2026, answers those. These are MLS records, never blended with the county deed figures above, so the counts differ: the MLS shows 28 MLS-marketed closings in 12 months against the county’s 35 recorded sales, and 3 more seller-direct entries sit outside the MLS medians below.

Vasari Country Club MLS closings by window, pull of October 21, 2026

Measure 12 months 24 months 36 months 60 months
MLS-marketed closings 28 54 83 163

Median days on market 86 86 71 31
Median sold-to-list ratio 93.6% 93.2% 94.1% 95.0%

Over 12 months the 28 closings ran from $190,000 to $1,750,000, and over 24 months the 54 ran from $190,000 to $2,120,000. On October 21, 2026 the MLS showed 20 active listings priced from $272,000 to $1,999,000, with a median list price of $487,450, and 1 pending. The highest list price, $1,999,000, is on Via D Arezzo Drive. At the 12-month pace of 28 closings, or 2.33 a month, 20 active listings are 8.6 months of supply (20 divided by 28 over 12).

A median hides a wide range. Median days on market run from 16 for homes of 3,000 square feet and up to 270 for the one closing at 2,000 to 2,499 square feet, and rows with one or two closings, such as Firenze, Pienza, Altessa and Cassia over 12 months, are single data points, not a market rate. Read the row for the section and size you want, not the community figure. Square footage in these tables is MLS living area, not the county’s heated area.

What Does a Buyer Take On With Bundled Golf in Vasari Country Club?

A Vasari Country Club buyer in Bonita Springs takes a deed to a lot or a condominium unit and, with it, automatic Class A membership in the Master Association, which means the golf course, clubhouse, courts and fitness center are included with the home. Membership cannot be sold, conveyed or assigned separately from the unit.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Vasari Country Club Questions and Answers, read October 10, 2026; Amended and Restated Declaration, Instrument 2024000237003; Lee County GIS parcel layer, read October 10, 2026.

What the documents say membership is

The club’s own question-and-answer sheet says that since Vasari is a bundled community, club membership and amenities come with ownership, with no separate initiation fee and no additional club membership to purchase. The recorded documents say the same thing in legal terms: the original 2002 declaration deems every lot owner a Class A member (Master Declaration, OR 3635/4554, Lee County Clerk image), and the 2024 restated declaration gives owners and their immediate families access to the Club Facilities.

Who owns the clubhouse and the course land

On the county roll, the Vasari Country Club Master Association owns 12 parcels of about 129.9 acres, including the 78.79-acre clubhouse and amenity tract and the three dry golf tracts, GC-1, GC-2 and GC-3, of 30.75 acres together (Lee County GIS parcel layer). The Vasari Community Development District owns 32 lake and conservation parcels of 142.61 acres. No developer, outside operator or separate club company appears as owner of record on any of the club parcels. The deed that moved those tracts to the association is not in the records we read, so we state ownership as the county roll shows it.

Equity or non-equity: what the record supports

Buyers often ask whether Vasari is equity or non-equity. No club document we read uses either word. What the recorded declaration supports is the structure above: membership comes with the home and cannot be sold separately, and the clubhouse and dry golf tracts are owned of record by the homeowners’ Master Association. Whether an owner holds a transferable interest apart from the home is a question for the declaration of the specific section, read with the estoppel and resale package, and we describe the structure rather than attach a label to it.

What is billed on top of dues

The club says dues cover community operations and maintenance, a 24-hour manned gatehouse, cable and internet services and the club amenities, including the 18-hole golf course, driving range, tennis, pickleball, bocce and clubhouse (club Questions and Answers). Food and beverage, events, golf cart fees when they apply, lessons, clinics, personal services, certain guest fees and optional upgrades are billed when used, and the club states no food and beverage minimum. Dues do not cover the CDD assessment on the county tax bill, property taxes, insurance, or a village or condominium association’s own dues.

Tee times and guest play

Tee times are assigned through an online system called Chelsea on a rolling six-day point system, not first come, first served, and players can request times up to 30 days ahead. Guests may play from noon onward from January through March, may not play on Fridays from January through April, and may play at any time on weekends (club Questions and Answers). Point values and rules can change by board action, so read the current rules before you rely on them.

The course in brief

Two golf directories, GOLF.com Course Finder and GolfPass, credit Gordon G. Lewis with an 18-hole, par 72 course in 2002 and a 2010 update by Billy Fuller. The Florida State Golf Association rates the championship tee at 72.4 with a slope of 143. The declaration grants an errant golf ball easement and has owners assume that risk, and 191 of the 194 single-family homes carry a golf or lake frontage tag on the county record, so a buyer of a course-side home should read that clause (Amended and Restated Declaration, Section 14.19).

What Can You Buy in Vasari Country Club, and at What Price, by Section?

Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs offers six condominium sections, Altessa, Cassia, Firenze, Matera, Toscana and Trieste, with 572 homes in two-story buildings, plus 194 single-family homes in plat Units One, Five and Six. Recorded medians run from $332,500 in Matera to $1,125,000 for single-family homes.

Altessa has 88 condominium homes in 22 buildings of four, each with a garage, built from 2002 to 2005, in two county plan sizes of 2,040 and 2,875 square feet. Over 36 months the county recorded 11 sales at a $749,000 median, from $610,000 to $910,000, with 4 in the last 12 months. One street-name trap matters: Altessa Way is shared by four sections, Altessa itself, Cassia, Matera III and IV, and the Unit Six single-family homes, so confirm the recorded section before you compare prices.

Cassia at Vasari

Cassia has 68 condominium homes in 17 buildings of four, with garages, built in 2006 and 2007, in two plans of 1,998 and 2,716 square feet. Over 60 months the county recorded 22 sales at a $716,250 median, from $620,000 to $905,000. The last 12 months hold three sales, at $800,000, $815,000 and $820,000, and Cassia has its own condominium association with no village association listed on Sunbiz.

Firenze at Vasari

Firenze is the smallest condominium section, 42 homes in seven buildings of six, with garages, all built in 2006, in four plans from 1,608 to 2,192 square feet. Over 60 months the county recorded 18 sales at a $650,000 median, from $280,000 to $770,000. Only one sale closed in the last 12 months, at $570,000, and one sale is not a median, so use the 60-month figure with care.

Matera in Vasari

Matera has 128 condominium homes in 16 buildings of eight, with carports, built from 2004 to 2006 in four recorded projects. In the 12 months to September 25, 2026 the county recorded 10 sales at a $332,500 median, from $190,000 to $400,000, the lowest in the community. Quarterly association dues are $1,625 for Matera I and $1,575 for each of Matera II, III and IV, per the associations’ 2026 quarterly fee sheet. Matera at Vasari is not the Fort Myers condominium of the same name.

Toscana in Vasari

Toscana is the largest section, 138 homes in 23 buildings of six, with garages, built from 2002 to 2005, in four plans of 1,648, 1,761, 2,083 and 2,149 square feet. Over 24 months the county recorded 12 sales at a $500,000 median, from $335,000 to $579,000, with 5 in the last 12 months. Quarterly association dues are $1,780 for Toscana I and $1,770 each for Toscana II and III, per the associations’ 2026 quarterly fee sheet. Toscana carries the second-lowest CDD bill, $1,883.85 in FY2026.

Trieste in Vasari

Trieste has 108 condominium homes in 10 buildings of 8 and 12, with carports, built from 2002 to 2007, all on Corsia Trieste Way, in plans from 1,412 to 1,660 square feet. Over 24 months the county recorded 10 sales at a $350,000 median, from $272,500 to $405,000, with 6 in the last 12 months. Trieste carries the lowest CDD bill in the community; quarterly association dues are $1,650 for Trieste I, $2,090 for Trieste II and $1,625 for Trieste III, per the associations’ 2026 quarterly fee sheet.

The single-family homes: Units One, Five and Six

Vasari has 194 single-family homes built from 2002 to 2006: Unit One holds 106 (61 on Pienza Court and 45 on Via D Arezzo Drive), Unit Five holds 40 on Via Cercina Drive and Unit Six holds 48 on Altessa Way. The county’s heated area has a median of 2,543 square feet. Over 24 months the county recorded 13 sales at a $1,125,000 median, from $850,000 to $2,120,000, at $412.90 per square foot. The highest sale in the last 12 months was $1,750,000 on Via D Arezzo Dr on August 24, 2026.

Street Sales (24 months) Recorded price
Pienza Court 5 $850,000 to $1,135,000 (under 10 sales, no median)
Via D Arezzo Drive 4 $1,125,000 to $2,120,000 (under 10 sales, no median)
Altessa Way 2 $1,050,000 and $1,114,750 (two sales: too thin to read as a market rate)
Via Cercina Drive 2 $900,000 and $1,130,000 (two sales: too thin to read as a market rate)

Names that are not Vasari

Four names sound like Vasari and are not. Bellino Terrace lies in Palmira, a separate golf community, not in Vasari. Matera at Vasari is not the Fort Myers condominium of the same name. Sorrento is a Palmira-area name with no Vasari roll record. And Palmira itself is a separate community with its own golf course, about 1.5 miles east. Hunters Ridge lies across I-75.

What Does It Cost to Own a Home in Vasari Country Club?

Owning a home in Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs means paying the Master Association’s $13,601.02 in 2026 dues, a village or condominium association’s quarterly dues for most homes, the Vasari CDD’s $1,709.34 to $2,578.52 FY2026 assessment, and county taxes at 12.7942 mills for 2026. The three fixed layers alone come to $17,785.21 to $25,448.28 a year.

Neither the Master Association’s dues nor each village or condominium association’s dues appear on the club’s public site. The figures come from the association’s 2026 fee schedule and quarterly fee sheet, which sit on a third-party brokerage host; we read them on October 28, 2026. The schedule’s budget page nets the annual assessment to $13,343 after a $258 surplus credit, so which amount is billed is settled only by the estoppel or a Master Association statement. Whether a condominium’s quarterly dues include building insurance, water, sewer or reserves differs by association and is not verified here, so ask each association what its dues cover.

Fixed annual carry by neighborhood

Fixed annual carry by neighborhood, 2026 fee schedules and CDD budgets. This is arithmetic, not a bill: it adds the Master Association’s $13,601.02, four quarters of village or condominium dues and the CDD assessment. It leaves out property tax, insurance, utilities, food and beverage, cart fees and any assessment balance.

The monthly column divides the FY2026 total by 12. The November 2026 bill carries the district’s FY2027 assessment, which is proposed and not yet adopted, so read the FY2027 columns as proposed. The Arezzo, Pienza, Cercina and Bellino quarterly figures are landscape dues; the rest are condominium and village dues.

Property taxes in district 017

All 822 Vasari parcels on the roll sit in Lee County tax district 017, City of Bonita Springs and Bonita Springs Fire. The Property Appraiser’s 2026 Taxing District Millage Book, printed October 9, 2026, applies 12.7942 mills for 2026, against 12.8217 proposed in August, a rollback rate of 12.7874 and 12.7970 for 2025 (Lee County Property Appraiser, 2026 Taxing District Millage Book). The 2026 components add up to 12.7942 mills: Lee County, 3.7623. School local, 2.2480, and school state, 3.0230. City of Bonita Springs, 0.8411, its rolled-back rate, adopted on September 23, 2026 (Resolution 26-027). Library, 0.4218. South Florida Water Management District, 0.0948, 0.0327 and 0.1026. Bonita Springs Fire, 1.9999. Hyacinth control, 0.0190; mosquito control, 0.2096; inland navigation, 0.0394. Separately, Bonita Springs voters approved up to $35 million of general obligation bonds for the Bonita Estero Rail Trail on August 18, 2026, to be repaid from ad valorem taxes on all taxable property in the city over up to 30 years; the cost per home had not been published when we checked on October 12, 2026 (City of Bonita Springs Ordinance 26-05). The county collects the CDD assessment on the same November bill, and the tax collector gives a discount of up to 4 percent for early payment.

Worked example: a condominium at the median

Each tax line below applies the 2026 district 017 millage, 12.7942 mills, to a value equal to the median sale price, before any exemption. A real bill follows the county’s assessed and taxable value, which differs for a new owner. The arithmetic is the value divided by 1,000 and multiplied by 12.7942, then added to the CDD line. The first table adds only taxes and the CDD; the second adds the Master Association and village dues as well.

Example Value used Taxes at 12.7942 mills (2026) CDD FY2026 Taxes plus CDD FY2026, a year A month Taxes plus CDD FY2027 proposed, a year A month
Whole-community median, 12 months $400,000 $5,117.68 $1,709.34 to $2,578.52 $6,827.02 to $7,696.20 $568.92 to $641.35 $6,581.45 to $7,100.34 $548.45 to $591.70
Trieste condominium, 24-month median $350,000 $4,477.97 $1,709.34 $6,187.31 $515.61 $5,941.74 $495.15
Matera condominium, 12-month median $332,500 $4,254.07 $1,969.38 $6,223.45 $518.62 $5,873.08 $489.42
Toscana condominium, 24-month median $500,000 $6,397.10 $1,883.85 $8,280.95 $690.08 $7,965.05 $663.75
Single-family (Arezzo label), 24-month median $1,125,000 $14,393.48 $2,578.52 $16,972.00 $1,414.33 $16,376.14 $1,364.68

The next table adds the fixed carry from the table above, so it covers the Master Association, village or condominium dues and the CDD, before insurance, utilities and club charges.

Example Value used Taxes at 12.7942 mills (2026) Taxes plus fixed carry, FY2026 CDD, a year A month Taxes plus fixed carry, FY2027 CDD proposed, a year A month

Matera condominium, 12-month median $332,500 $4,254.07 $26,124.47 to $26,324.47 $2,177.04 to $2,193.71 $25,774.10 to $25,974.10 $2,147.84 to $2,164.51
Toscana condominium, 24-month median $500,000 $6,397.10 $28,961.97 to $29,001.97 $2,413.50 to $2,416.83 $28,646.07 to $28,686.07 $2,387.17 to $2,390.51
Single-family (Arezzo label), 24-month median $1,125,000 $14,393.48 $32,927.02 $2,743.92 $32,331.16 $2,694.26

The first table leaves out the Master Association dues, village or condominium dues, insurance and the city’s $20 or $50 stormwater tier; the second adds the dues and still leaves out insurance, the stormwater tier and club charges.

What changes if the bonds end in 2027

The district’s Series 2012 bonds are scheduled to be paid off on May 1, 2027. If the board kept the operating assessment at $1,100 and nothing else changed, the whole-community median example would carry $5,117.68 in county taxes plus $1,100, or $6,217.68 a year, which is $518.14 a month. That is arithmetic on an assumption, not a promise: the board sets the operating line each year, and the adopted FY2027 budget was not posted when we checked on October 30, 2026.

What Is the Vasari CDD Assessment, and When Does the Bond Debt End?

The Vasari CDD in Bonita Springs owns and maintains Vasari Country Club’s 25 lakes, stormwater system, preserves, perimeter and irrigation mains, and bills each home $1,100 for operations plus a bond share on the county tax bill. Its Series 2012 bonds are scheduled to be paid off on May 1, 2027.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Vasari CDD FY2026 adopted budget, FY2027 proposed budget (June 15, 2026), October 13, 2026 agenda package and FY2025 audit (Florida Auditor General), read October 10, 2026; documents page checked October 30, 2026.

FY2026 assessments by neighborhood

The district bills the same operations assessment of $1,100 on all 766 units, in FY2025, FY2026 and the FY2027 proposal; it was $800 in FY2023 and FY2024. The debt line differs by the district’s bond class. The table uses the district’s own neighborhood labels.

CDD label (lots) Homes Bond class FY2026 debt FY2026 total FY2027 proposed total
Arezzo (lots 62 to 106) 45 Single Family I $1,478.52 $2,578.52 $1,982.66

Trieste 108 Condo I $609.34 $1,709.34 $1,463.77
Matera (“Materra” in the budget) 128 Condo II $869.38 $1,969.38 $1,619.01

Each total is the $1,100 operating assessment plus the debt line, before the tax collector’s early-payment discount of up to 4 percent. Ten homes have prepaid their debt share and pay the operating line only. Labels and lot ranges are the district’s; Bellino and the other single-family labels are the CDD’s names for lot groups, not recorded neighborhood names. Source: Vasari CDD FY2026 adopted budget and FY2027 proposed budget.

The FY2027 proposal: debt lines down 40.3 percent

The June 15, 2026 proposed budget cuts every debt line by 40.3 percent. Totals fall from 14.4 percent (Trieste) to 23.1 percent (Arezzo), so the proposed FY2027 bill runs $1,463.77 to $1,982.66 a home. The budget hearing was on the district’s August 11, 2026 agenda, but the adopted FY2027 budget was not posted on the district’s documents page when we checked on October 30, 2026, so these figures are the proposal.

The Series 2012 bonds and the May 1, 2027 payoff

The district’s debt is its Series 2012 Capital Improvement Revenue Refunding Bonds, issued August 15, 2012 at a fixed 2.79 percent, with an original principal of $8,655,000 and a final maturity of May 1, 2027. After the May 1, 2026 payment, $695,000 remained. At September 30, 2025, $1,370,000 was outstanding and the district’s net position was $16,056,436 (Florida Auditor General, Vasari CDD FY2025 audit).

What a buyer should do with this

Ask the district in writing, through the contact on its website, for the assessment class and any payoff figure for the specific home, and read the district’s lake bank erosion line: a capital line of $332,163 in FY2026, with $201,449 spent through August 31, 2026 (Vasari CDD agenda package, October 13, 2026). The district is not the golf club and does not own the clubhouse. A buyer who plans to own for years should treat the bond payoff as a scheduled change in the debt line, not as the end of the district’s bill.

What Must a Vasari Buyer Receive Before Signing?

A Vasari Country Club buyer in Bonita Springs should hold the estoppel certificate, the resale package, the declarations for the specific section, the association budgets, the insurance documents and the CDD class before the inspection period ends. Florida law entitles a buyer to many of these, and the contract should make the purchase subject to reviewing them.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Fla. Stat. 718.116, 718.503, 720.30851 and 720.401 (2026 statutes); Florida DBPR estoppel fee schedule; Amended and Restated Declaration, Instrument 2024000237003; the association’s 2026 fee schedule, read October 28, 2026.

The estoppel certificate

An estoppel certificate states what an owner owes the association on the date it is issued. For a condominium, section 718.116 governs it, and for a homeowners’ association section 720.30851 does. In both, the statute states a $250 base fee, plus $100 if expedited and $150 if the account is delinquent, adjusted every five years by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation; the current DBPR-adjusted caps are $299, plus $119 for delivery within three business days and $179 if delinquent, with the next adjustment due by July 1, 2027, and an association’s actual fee may be lower (DBPR estoppel certificate fee schedule). The certificate is due within 10 business days of a written request. For Vasari, the estoppel confirms the Master Association’s dues, any village or condominium dues and any remaining balance from an earlier assessment.

The resale package

Ask for the declaration and amendments for the section, the articles and bylaws, the rules, the current budget and year-end financial statement, the reserve schedule, recent meeting minutes, the master insurance documents and any inspection or reserve study report the association holds. The club’s Q&A says some owners paid an earlier assessment in full while others may carry a balance, which the estoppel shows (club Questions and Answers). The amount, date and purpose of that assessment are not public.

What Florida law gives a buyer

For a condominium resale, section 718.503 entitles the buyer, at the seller’s expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, and the association’s most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none has been completed. The resale contract must either acknowledge delivery more than 7 days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, before signing, or make the contract voidable by the buyer within 7 such days after receipt. For a homeowners’ association, section 720.401 requires a disclosure summary and lets the buyer void the contract by written notice within 3 days after receipt of the summary or before closing, whichever comes first. We ask the seller for both sets and let the title agent confirm which statute governs the unit.

The Resale Transfer Fee

The 2024 restated declaration lets the board set a Resale Transfer Fee. It is levied on the buyer at closing, in an amount the board sets from time to time, effective at least 90 days after the board publishes it. Transfers to an estate, surviving spouse, heirs, a spouse, a trust or a wholly owned entity for planning, and to the club by foreclosure, are exempt (Section 12.13). The declaration states no dollar amount, but the association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a Capital Contribution of $12,000 for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member, which reads as this fee (our inference). The original 2002 declaration set a resale contribution of six months of assessments, and the 2024 restatement replaced that formula. The club states no separate initiation fee, so both statements stand together: no initiation fee, and a capital contribution the buyer pays at closing.

When the estoppel arrives, send it to Marc at (239) 287-5873. We read the dues, the balance and the transfer fee against your monthly number, and we negotiate who pays what inside the contract’s review period, not after it.

Vasari vs Worthington: Which Bundled Golf Community Should a Buyer Choose?

Vasari Country Club and Worthington Country Club are two bundled golf communities in Bonita Springs, and both include golf with every home, as the Vasari club Q&A and the Worthington membership page describe. They differ most on master dues, one-time charges, district debt, age of homes and single-family price.

Data updated: October 2026. Sources: Lee County recorded sales, our analysis (September 25, 2026); Worthington 2026 Fee Schedule and 2026 HOA Fee Schedule (read September 26, 2026); Vasari club Q&A and CDD budgets (October 10, 2026); the Vasari Master Association’s 2026 fee schedule (October 28, 2026).

Where the money differs for a buyer

Both communities put their 2026 numbers in documents, and both are worth confirming in an estoppel. Worthington’s 2026 master dues are $13,058 a year, with a $1,000 food and beverage minimum and a one-time capital contribution of $12,500 for a buyer new to Worthington or $1,306 for an existing owner. Vasari’s Master Association dues are $13,601.02, which is $543.02 a year more, with no food and beverage minimum (club Q&A) and a capital contribution of $12,000 for a buyer new to Vasari or $6,000 for an existing member. Vasari’s figures sit in the association’s 2026 fee schedule on a third-party host, not on the club’s public site, so we confirm them in the estoppel for the address before we advise on price. Village or condominium dues come on top at Vasari, $466.72 to $2,415 a quarter, and Vasari also has a district layer, the CDD, whose debt line is scheduled to end with the May 1, 2027 payment.

Which fits which priorities

If the lowest annual master dues matter most, Worthington’s $13,058 is $543.02 below Vasari’s $13,601.02. If the lowest one-time charge for a new buyer matters most, Vasari’s $12,000 is $500 below Worthington’s $12,500, while an existing member pays $6,000 at Vasari and $1,306 at Worthington. If a newer home matters more, Vasari’s homes were all built from 2002 to 2007. If carrying no district bond is the priority, Vasari’s CDD debt is scheduled to end with the May 1, 2027 payment, assuming no new borrowing, though the operating assessment continues. If a lower single-family price point matters, Worthington’s 12-month single-family median was $600,000 against Vasari’s 24-month $1,125,000. If Worthington is on your list, read our buyer’s guide to Worthington Country Club beside this one.

How Does Vasari Compare With Bonita National and Highland Woods for a Buyer?

Among Bonita Springs golf communities, Vasari Country Club recorded 35 sales at a $400,000 median in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, against $690,000 at Bonita National (109 sales) and $500,000 at Highland Woods (15 sales). Vasari’s single-family homes sell higher, at a $1,125,000 median over 24 months.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County recorded sales, our analysis, windows to September 25, 2026.

Community Homes on the roll (match used) Built Window Sales Median $/sq ft
Vasari Country Club (all) 766 2002 to 2007 12 months 35 $400,000 $249.53
Vasari single-family 194 2002 to 2006 24 months 13 $1,125,000 $412.90
Worthington single-family 279 1990 to 2009 12 months 21 $600,000 $327.13
Bonita National (all) 1,458 2015 to 2022 12 months 109 $690,000 $347.63
Highland Woods (parcels whose legal names it) 352 1996 to 2001 12 months 15 $500,000 $322.58

How to read the comparison

Three things change what each median means. Product mix: a community that is 75 percent condominium (Vasari, 572 of 766) shows a lower blended median than one that is mostly single-family, and Bonita National is about 55 percent condominium (802 of 1,458). Window: Vasari’s single-family row uses 24 months because 12 months held only 6 sales. Area basis: every price per square foot uses the county’s heated area, which can differ from a listing’s living area. Compare Vasari’s single-family row with the single-family median of $989,000 (53 sales, 12 months) at Bonita National.

Should You Buy a Condominium or a Single-Family Home in Vasari Country Club?

A buyer in Vasari Country Club, Bonita Springs, chooses between 572 condominium units in 95 two-story buildings, priced at a $352,000 median over 12 months, and 194 detached single-family homes at a $1,125,000 median over 24 months. The choice changes the association layers, the insurance structure, the CDD class and the carrying cost.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County recorded sales, our analysis (September 25, 2026); Vasari CDD FY2026 budget; Florida Division of Corporations; Lee County building footprints.

Factor Condominium (572 units) Single-family (194 homes)
Recorded median $352,000, 12 months, 29 sales $1,125,000, 24 months, 13 sales
Per county heated sq ft $232.67 $412.90
Associations Master Association plus a village or condominium association Master Association; the quarterly fee sheet lists landscape dues of $466.72 to $588.50 for Pienza, Cercina, Bellino and Arezzo
CDD FY2026 $1,709.34 to $2,187.26 $2,317.31 to $2,578.52
Insurance Unit-owner policy; the building sits under the association’s master policy The owner insures the whole house
Building rules Two stories per the county; below the milestone and reserve study threshold Not applicable
Parking Garage in Altessa, Cassia, Firenze and Toscana; carport in Matera and Trieste Garage
Taxes at the median, a year, at 12.7942 mills $4,503.56 at $352,000, plus the section’s CDD line and quarterly dues $14,393.48 at $1,125,000, plus $2,578.52 CDD for the Arezzo label and $2,354.00 a year in landscape dues

If the fixed annual carry is the first filter, the single-family neighborhoods of Pienza, Cercina, Bellino and Arezzo come in lowest, $17,785.21 to $18,533.54 a year before tax and insurance, because the fee sheet lists their quarterly dues as landscape dues. Among condominiums, Trieste III is lowest at $21,810.36 and Matera II to IV next at $21,870.40, while Altessa I is highest at $25,448.28. Taxes follow the price, so the single-family tax line is far higher. If land, a garage and golf-side frontage matter more, the single-family homes are the only detached product, and 191 of the 194 carry a golf or lake frontage tag. Either way, ask for the estoppel for the exact home before you compare.

What Should a Vasari Condominium Buyer Check About the Building?

On the county record, Vasari Country Club’s condominium buildings in Bonita Springs sit below the threshold of Florida’s milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study laws: the Lee County Property Appraiser records all 95 buildings at two stories, and both laws apply to buildings of three habitable stories or more. This is the record, not a legal opinion.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Section 553.899 and Section 718.112, Florida Statutes (2026), read October 10, 2026; Lee County GIS building footprints, read October 10, 2026.

What the statutes require

Section 553.899 requires a milestone inspection of a condominium or cooperative building of three habitable stories or more, first due by December 31 of the year the building reaches 30 years of age, and every 10 years after. Section 718.112 requires a structural integrity reserve study at least every 10 years for each building three habitable stories or higher, and states that the provision does not apply to buildings less than three stories.

What the county record shows

The county’s building footprint layer returns 95 condominium buildings across Vasari, every one at a maximum of 2.0 stories (Lee County GIS). The appraiser’s story field is not the Florida Building Code’s count of habitable stories, which is the legal test, and no certificate of occupancy or permit was read for any building. Whether an association has completed any inspection or study is in that association’s own records.

What to request anyway

Every condominium buyer should ask for the current budget, the reserve schedule, recent meeting minutes, the insurance documents and any inspection or reserve study report the association holds. The master declaration, as amended May 19, 2026, requires a capital replacement reserve in the master budget (Instrument 2026000132285). The Division of Florida Condominiums explains the reporting process on its SIRS reporting page. Our guide to buying a home in Bonita Springs walks through the closing documents a buyer should line up.

What Flood Zone Is Vasari Country Club In?

Every one of Vasari Country Club’s 766 home sites in Bonita Springs that we tested by county centroid falls in FEMA Zone X, outside the Special Flood Hazard Area, on the live federal flood layer read October 10, 2026: 664 in shaded Zone X (0.2 percent annual chance) and 102 in minimal-hazard Zone X.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, queried at 40 points and all 766 home sites on October 10, 2026; Lee County GIS layers.

Zone X at every home site tested

We queried the live FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer at 40 sample points placed at the northern and southern ends of each recorded section and at the eastern and western ends of the single-family units. It returned Zone X every time: 33 points in shaded Zone X and 7 in minimal-hazard Zone X. A point-in-polygon test of every built residential parcel centroid agreed: 664 shaded Zone X, 102 unshaded Zone X, and none in Zone A, AE, AH or V. The layer returned no base flood elevation at any point.

Two FIRM panels, and the 2027 update

Panel 12071C0659G, effective November 17, 2022, covers about 689 home centroids. Panel 12071C0678F, effective August 28, 2008, covers 77 on the eastern edge: 54 in Toscana I, 17 in single-family Unit Five and 6 in Toscana II. FEMA’s Map Service Center lists a Lee County map update effective March 2, 2027; the revised-panel list revises other panels and not 0659G or 0678F (FEMA Flood Map Service Center). A lender’s flood determination for the exact address settles a loan requirement.

Ground elevation and drainage

Lee County’s 2018 LiDAR puts the average ground elevation within 75 feet of the 40 sample points at 13.2 to 15.9 feet above sea level (NAVD88). That is ground surface, not finished floor (Lee County GIS, 2018 LiDAR spot elevations). The Vasari CDD is responsible for the stormwater system of 25 lakes, the preserves, the perimeter wall and the irrigation mains, but not the golf course or the clubhouse.

What Zone X does and does not tell a buyer

Shaded Zone X is a moderate-hazard area outside the 1 percent annual chance floodplain; minimal-hazard Zone X is outside the 0.2 percent area as well. Both are map classifications of the ground, not a record of how any building performed in any storm. An insurer or lender can still ask for flood coverage on a Zone X property. The practical steps are small: read the zone and panel on the lender’s determination, ask the seller for any elevation certificate, and compare the surge envelope with the evacuation zone.

How Do Hurricanes Affect a Vasari Country Club Buyer?

Hurricanes reach Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs mainly through wind and evacuation orders: Lee County places it in evacuation Zone B, and the National Hurricane Center’s worst-case surge envelope shows no inundation in Category 1 and 2 storms but up to 4 feet above ground in Category 3 and 12 to 15 feet in Category 5.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County GIS evacuation zones and Zone B sheet; National Hurricane Center SLOSH worst-case layer (data acquired February 17, 2026); National Hurricane Center storm reports; all read October 10, 2026.

Evacuation Zone B

Lee County’s evacuation zone service returned Zone B (surge zone 2) at all 40 sample points. The county’s Zone B sheet says Zone B “is very vulnerable and will experience significant impacts from land-falling storms. Evacuation will often be required for a hurricane coming from the Gulf.” An evacuation zone is a surge planning zone, not a flood zone, and it is a different map from the FEMA layer. Look up the exact address on Lee County Emergency Management’s lookup before hurricane season, not during a watch.

Storm surge in the worst-case envelope

Storm category Worst-case surge above ground across the 40 Vasari points
Category 1 No inundation
Category 2 No inundation
Category 3 0 to 4 feet
Category 4 7 to 11 feet
Category 5 12 to 15 feet

This is a planning envelope from the National Hurricane Center SLOSH layer, not a forecast. The single-family units around Via D Arezzo Drive sit at the high end of the range and the eastern Toscana points at the low end.

What the storms nearby did

The federal storm reports speak of the coast and the region, not of individual subdivisions, so none of these figures is a Vasari measurement. Hurricane Ian made landfall at Cayo Costa on September 28, 2022 as a Category 4 hurricane, with inland high water marks in Bonita and North Naples 5 to 7 feet above ground and coastal inundation of 8 to 12 feet in Estero, Bonita Beach, Bonita Springs and North Naples (NHC Ian report). Irma’s final landfall was near Marco Island as a Category 3 hurricane on September 10, 2017 (NHC Irma report), and Helene and Milton in 2024 brought surge of 3 to 5 feet from Bonita Beach southward (Helene; Milton). Every Vasari home was built in 2007 or earlier, so all of these storms came after the community was built. For any single home, the useful record is its own file: permits, roof covering and age, the wind mitigation report and the claim history.

Wind design and the debris region

The Lee County Property Appraiser’s hazard layers return a Florida Building Code design wind speed of 160 mph for Risk Category II and place the point inside the wind-borne debris region at all 40 sample points. Those are the speeds a new building would be designed to today, not the speeds a 2002 to 2007 permit was designed to. Because every Vasari home was permitted in the statewide code era, which began March 1, 2002, the permit date and the roof and opening details on a specific home matter more than the community as a whole.

How Does Insurance Work When You Buy in Vasari Country Club?

Insurance at Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs splits by product: single-family owners insure the whole house, while condominium owners carry a unit-owner policy beside the association’s master policy. From January 1, 2027, Citizens requires flood coverage on every new and renewing personal residential policy that includes wind coverage, whatever the flood zone; condominium unit-owner, tenant contents and wind-excluded policies are exempt.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Citizens Property Insurance flood requirement; Florida OIR form OIR-B1-1802; My Safe Florida Home; My Safe Florida Condo Pilot; City of Bonita Springs FEMA Community Rating System; all read October 10, 2026.

No public source gives a Vasari-wide premium, so this page prints none. Quotes depend on the home, its roof, its openings and its claim history, and the only number that matters is a binding quote for the exact address.

Single-family policies and the Citizens flood rule

Citizens Property Insurance states that most of its new and renewing personal residential policies that carry wind coverage must also carry flood insurance by January 1, 2027, under a phased-in approach, and for homes outside the Special Flood Hazard Area the final step applies to all policies regardless of dwelling value. All 194 Vasari single-family homes sit in Zone X on the layer we tested, so an owner who holds or is offered a Citizens wind policy should expect that requirement. The City of Bonita Springs holds Community Rating System Class 5, and the city’s November 21, 2024 release says NFIP policyholders keep a 25 percent discount (City of Bonita Springs, FEMA CRS).

Condominium unit-owner and master policies

Citizens states that condominium unit-owner policies, tenant contents policies, and policies that exclude windstorm or hail coverage are not required to buy flood insurance. A unit-owner policy protects the interior, the owner’s personal property and liability; the building itself is insured under the association’s master policy. Vasari has 572 condominium units in 15 recorded projects, each with its own association, so master policies are building-group specific. Ask for the association’s insurance documents in the resale package and review them with an insurance professional before closing.

Wind mitigation credits for 2002 to 2007 homes

Florida’s Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Form (OIR-B1-1802) asks whether a structure was built in compliance with the Florida Building Code, and for homes built in 2002 or 2003 it asks for a permit application dated after March 1, 2002. The early Vasari homes are the ones where the permit date decides whether the credit applies. Section 627.711 directs the form and requires insurers to accept a valid one for discounts.

State programs worth knowing

My Safe Florida Home offers a free wind mitigation inspection and potential grants of up to $10,000. The My Safe Florida Condo Pilot lets associations within 15 miles of the coast apply, by board vote, for a mitigation inspection and grants; associations apply, not unit owners. Eligibility is decided by program staff, and funding depends on the program year.

How Do You Inspect a 2002 to 2007 Home in Vasari Country Club?

Every home in Vasari Country Club, Bonita Springs, was built from 2002 to 2007, with a median build year of 2005, so a buyer is inspecting homes that are 19 to 24 years old. We ask for permits, roof records and the association’s reserve schedule, because no public record of roof replacements exists.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County Property Appraiser roll, October 4, 2026; Florida OIR form OIR-B1-1802; Vasari CDD stormwater rules (Resolution 2026-02).

The inspection list

A general inspection covers the roof covering and its condition, the air-conditioning system and its age, windows and exterior doors, plumbing, electrical, the water heater, attic ventilation and insulation, and the garage door. We add items specific to a golf community with lakes: grading and swales at the lot line, gutters and downspouts that direct water as the Master Association’s standards and the CDD’s stormwater rules require, the lake bank behind the home, and any golf ball damage to the roof, screens and windows.

The records to pull

Ask the seller for the permit history on the county record, roof and air-conditioning replacement dates, the wind mitigation report, any four-point or insurance inspection on file, the claim history, and warranty or service records. For a condominium, add the association’s records of building-level repairs and any special assessment history. The roof is usually the biggest single driver of both insurability and price, so order the roof inspection first.

Specialist inspections to consider

Depending on the home, a buyer may add a wind mitigation inspection, a termite inspection, a sewer scope, a mold or moisture assessment after any past water event, and a survey. Condominium buyers may find the specialist items handled by the association rather than the unit, which is another reason to read the declaration before ordering.

Using what the inspection finds

An aged roof, an air-conditioning system near the end of its life or a wind mitigation report that shows fewer credits than the seller assumed are negotiating points. They carry more weight inside the contract’s 15-day inspection period than after it, which is why we calendar the inspection before the offer is signed.

What Rules Does a Vasari Country Club Buyer Inherit?

Daily rules in Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs run through a 24-hour manned gate, club house rules for guests, the master declaration’s leasing, pet and parking provisions, and each village’s own rules. Leases run at least 30 days, up to six a year, and the master declaration as read has no age restriction.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Vasari Country Club Questions and Answers; Amended and Restated Declaration, Instrument 2024000237003, recorded August 23, 2024; Vasari CDD, read October 10, 2026.

Leasing

The master declaration allows a lot to be leased only in its entirety, with a minimum lease of 30 days and no more than six leases per lot in a calendar year. Village and condominium documents may be stricter, and the club may adopt a lease review with background and credit checks (Section 14.21). A lease covering all of February is accepted, per the club’s Q&A. An owner who leases assigns the enjoyment rights to the tenant for the lease term. A buyer who plans to rent a home should read the village’s documents before an offer.

Pets, parking and home business

The declaration lets the board set a reasonable number of usual household pets and, by residence size or type, their breeds and number; a leash may be no longer than 15 feet. Commercial vehicles, campers, boats and trailers are barred except in garages or club-designated spaces, with towing after notice. A home business is allowed if it is not apparent from outside (Sections 14.2, 14.4 and 14.20).

Age restriction

The master declaration as read contains no age restriction, in Articles 4, 5, 12 and 14 of the 2002 and 2024 documents. The village supplements and the 15 condominium declarations may add their own rules, and the documents for the section control for a given home.

Gate, guests and the club’s house rules

Vasari has a 24-hour manned gatehouse, and the dues pay for it. The club’s guest information page bars smoking in the clubhouse, pool area, fitness center, range and courts, and bars pets from the club facilities except service dogs (guest information, club marketing). The declaration lets the club’s rules open the facilities to non-members for daily, short or long terms, so access rules can change by board action.

What Does a Buyer Pay at Closing on a Vasari Country Club Home?

A Vasari Country Club buyer in Bonita Springs who finances pays the mortgage documentary stamp tax at 35 cents per $100, the 2-mill intangible tax, recording, lender, title and inspection charges, and association charges, including a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari. In Lee County the seller customarily pays the owner’s title policy and deed stamps.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Florida Department of Revenue documentary stamp tax and nonrecurring intangible tax pages; Florida Administrative Code rule 69O-186.003; Lee County Clerk fee schedule; Lee County recorded sales, our analysis.

The Florida taxes, with the arithmetic shown

On a financed purchase with 20 percent down, the loan is 80 percent of the price. The mortgage documentary stamp tax is $0.35 per $100 of the loan, uncapped on the recorded mortgage. The nonrecurring intangible tax is 2 mills on the loan. The deed documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100 of the price falls on the seller by Lee County custom (Florida Department of Revenue, documentary stamp tax; nonrecurring intangible tax). The owner’s title premium follows rule 69O-186.003: $5.75 per $1,000 up to $100,000, $5.00 per $1,000 from $100,000 to $1 million, and $2.50 per $1,000 from $1 million to $5 million.

Purchase price (20 percent down) Loan Mortgage stamps Intangible tax Deed stamps (seller, by custom) Owner’s title premium (seller, by custom)
$352,000 (condominium median) $281,600 $985.60 $563.20 $2,464.00 $1,835.00
$400,000 (community median) $320,000 $1,120.00 $640.00 $2,800.00 $2,075.00
$1,125,000 (single-family median) $900,000 $3,150.00 $1,800.00 $7,875.00 $5,387.50

The title premium at $400,000 is $575.00 on the first $100,000 plus $1,500.00 on the next $300,000. At $1,125,000 it is $575.00, plus $4,500.00 on the next $900,000, plus $312.50 on the last $125,000. Recording fees at the Lee County Clerk are $10.00 for the first page and $8.50 for each additional page (Lee County Clerk, fees and costs). Lender fees, appraisal, inspections, the survey and prepaid items are quotes from your lender and title agent, and this page prints none of them.

Down payment arithmetic

Down payment $352,000 $400,000 $1,125,000
3 percent $10,560 $12,000 $33,750
5 percent $17,600 $20,000 $56,250
10 percent $35,200 $40,000 $112,500
20 percent $70,400 $80,000 $225,000

This is multiplication, not a statement of what any loan program requires. Your lender sets the minimum that applies.

Association charges at closing

On a resale a buyer new to Vasari pays a $12,000 capital contribution at closing, and an existing member pays $6,000, per the association’s 2026 fee schedule; we read it as the Resale Transfer Fee the board may set (our inference). The estoppel fee is capped by statute and the Department of Business and Professional Regulation at $299 now, plus $119 for delivery within three business days and $179 if delinquent, and the contract assigns who pays it. We read the estoppel line by line and negotiate who pays each item inside the review period. Prorations of taxes, the CDD assessment and association dues are computed to the closing date.

How Do Property Taxes Work After You Buy in Vasari Country Club?

After you buy in Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs, the county reassesses the property for the new owner, applies the 12.7942 mill district 017 rate (2026) plus the CDD assessment on the November bill, and gives a homestead exemption only if you apply by March 1. Save Our Homes then caps annual increases in assessed value for a homestead.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County Property Appraiser 2026 Taxing District Millage Book, printed October 9, 2026; Fla. Stat. 193.155; Lee County Property Appraiser homestead and portability pages; Vasari CDD FY2026 budget.

Your bill after the sale

A recent sale price is not your tax bill. The bill follows the county’s assessed and taxable value, which for a new owner can differ from the previous owner’s value. The worked examples above apply the millage to the sale price as an illustration before exemptions. The county collects the CDD assessment on the same bill under the uniform method, and the tax collector gives a discount of up to 4 percent for early payment (Lee County Tax Collector).

Homestead and Save Our Homes

A Florida homestead exemption requires an application filed by March 1 of the year you qualify, online or in person with the Lee County Property Appraiser (Lee County Property Appraiser, homestead). Under section 193.155, a homestead’s assessed value may rise each year by no more than the lesser of 3 percent or the change in the consumer price index.

Portability if you are selling to buy

An owner who sold a Florida homestead and qualifies may transfer part of the accumulated Save Our Homes difference to the new home, up to $500,000, by applying with the Property Appraiser (Lee County Property Appraiser, portability). The statute requires a homestead exemption as of January 1 of any of the 3 immediately preceding years. If you are selling a Florida home to buy in Vasari, read selling a home in Vasari and call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

A ballot measure to watch

A constitutional amendment on the November 3, 2026 ballot would change how homestead exemptions and non-homestead assessment caps work (the Florida Senate record, CS/HJR 1-F). We state no dollar effect, because the result of the vote and the implementing rules are not known when this page is published.

How Does Buyer’s Agent Compensation Work in Vasari Country Club in 2026?

Buyer’s agent compensation in Vasari Country Club, Bonita Springs, is negotiated and written into a buyer agreement before you tour a home. Since the National Association of Realtors practice changes of August 2024, offers of compensation no longer appear on the MLS, and the amount can be paid by the seller, the buyer or both.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: National Association of Realtors, Written Buyer Agreements 101 and settlement FAQs; Florida Realtors Exclusive Buyer Brokerage Agreement EBBA-8sa.

What the buyer agreement says

A buyer who tours a home with a participating agent signs a written agreement that states the services, the term and how the agent is paid (NAR, Written Buyer Agreements 101). Florida Realtors publishes the single-agent form, EBBA-8sa, which we give you to read before you sign anything.

Who pays

Compensation is negotiable, and a seller may agree in the contract to pay some or all of it, or to give a concession toward your costs. NAR explains the changes in its settlement FAQs and in what the settlement means for home buyers and sellers. We state our terms in writing at the first meeting, so there is no surprise at the table.

How Do You Finance a Vasari Country Club Home in 2026?

Financing a Vasari Country Club home in Bonita Springs starts with a lender’s loan estimate, and for the 572 condominium units it adds a project review of the condominium by the lender. Fannie Mae publishes a condo status finder and a list of ineligible project types that a lender uses.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Fannie Mae Selling Guide B4-2.1-03; Fannie Mae condo project status finder; Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey; Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Condominium project review

A lender reviewing a condominium loan looks at the project, not just the borrower: budget and reserves, owner-occupancy, delinquencies, litigation and insurance. Fannie Mae’s condo status finder tells a lender whether a project is approved, and its guide lists the ineligible project types. Ask your lender to run each Vasari condominium project early, because the answer can differ by project. This is another reason to request the budget and reserve documents with the estoppel.

Rates and the loan estimate

Mortgage rates change daily and depend on your file, so this page quotes none. Freddie Mac publishes the weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey for context, and your lender’s written Loan Estimate is the document to compare. Get at least two, on the same day, with the same assumptions.

Cash buyers and financing contingencies

On the Florida AS IS contract the loan application is due within 5 days and the loan approval period defaults to 30 days (ASIS-7). A cash buyer skips the financing contingency, but not the estoppel, the inspection or the flood and insurance questions. We review the condominium documents for a cash buyer the same way we do for a financed one.

What Schools Serve Vasari Country Club?

Vasari Country Club addresses in Bonita Springs fall in the School District of Lee County’s study area 2251: Elementary Zone Q, Middle Zone GG and High School South Zone 3, checked address by address on October 10, 2026. A zone lists several schools a student can choose from; it sets busing, not choice.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: School District of Lee County zone lookup (2026-27), read October 10, 2026; Florida Department of Education 2025-26 School Grades, as of September 1, 2026.

Zones by address

We ran nine Vasari addresses through the district’s own zone lookup: two on Pienza Court, one on Via Cercina Drive, Altessa Way for Unit Six and Cassia, Matera Lane, Toscana Way, Firenze Way and Corsia Trieste Way. All nine returned study area 2251, Zone Q, Zone GG and South Zone 3, across all three single-family units and five condominium sections. That supports a statement for the streets we tested and not for every parcel, so use the district tool with the exact address. The district says the 2026-27 enrollment plan only limits the transportation provided and does not limit a student’s access to choose a school for the programs it offers (School District of Lee County, School Zones).

2025-26 school grades

Drive times are routed from five points inside Vasari, with no traffic. We use the state’s grades (Florida Department of Education, School Grades 2026) and no third-party ranking sites.

School Zone 2025-26 grade Drive from Vasari (no traffic)
Bonita Springs Elementary Q C 6 to 10 min
Spring Creek Elementary Q B 13 to 16 min

A grade describes a school, not a home. The district’s high school transportation page lists subzone S3 service to Bonita Springs High, Estero High and South Fort Myers High (High School Transportation Optimization).

What Is Daily Life Like in Vasari Country Club for an Owner?

Daily life in Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs centers on an 18-hole course, a clubhouse with dining, tennis, pickleball, bocce, a fitness center and a pool area, all named in the club’s own Q&A as covered by dues. The club also runs a social calendar and a charitable foundation, Vasari Cares.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Vasari Country Club Questions and Answers, lifestyle page and guest information page (club marketing, read October 10, 2026); trade press 2019 and 2020; South Florida Water Management District permits issued 2019.

The clubhouse and the Renaissance Project

Trade press announced a $6.1 million clubhouse expansion, the Renaissance Project, in 2019 and 2020, describing an expanded Grill and Bar, a lower-level Piazza with a kitchen and covered bar, a new golf shop building and a covered terrace (Club + Resort Business; Business Observer, March 8, 2020). The water management district issued two permits to the Master Association in 2019, one for a pro shop addition and one for a clubhouse expansion (SFWMD Environmental Resource Permits). The club’s home page now describes an artfully redesigned clubhouse; ask the club for the current facility details on a visit.

Tennis, pickleball, bocce, fitness and the pool

The club’s Questions and Answers sheet lists tennis, pickleball and bocce among what dues cover, and the lifestyle page lists a fitness center with cardio and weight equipment and personal training. The guest rules refer to a pool area. Ask for court counts, pool hours and the dining outlet list on your tour, since the club does not publish them.

Dining and the social calendar

The club describes seasonal, locally sourced menus, and its Q&A lists holiday parties, themed nights, wine dinners, golf events and tournaments, tennis and bocce activities and fitness programs. Dining is a pay-as-used charge, and the club states no food and beverage minimum. Dress codes apply in the dining rooms, on the course and on the courts.

Vasari Cares Foundation

Vasari Cares Foundation, Inc. is a registered Florida nonprofit (document N17000004678) that supports charities in Lee and Collier Counties. Its own page says it was founded in 2017 and has invested $484,000 in local nonprofits, supporting 17 organizations (the charity’s own statement). We did not audit those figures.

No marina and no private beach

Vasari sits inland, west of I-75, with no marina inside the gate. Bonita Beach Park is 6.5 to 7.4 miles and 13 to 16 minutes away, but its lot closed to patrons on September 8, 2026 for Hurricane Ian repairs, and the Access #1 lot closes November 1, 2026, with pedestrian access open (Lee County Parks, Bonita Beach Park). Little Hickory Island Beach Park (Beach Access #10) has also had its lot and amenities closed since September 8, 2026 for Hurricane Ian construction, with pedestrian access open (Lee County Parks, Little Hickory Island Beach Park, read October 12, 2026). The Imperial River boat ramp is 5.3 miles and about 12 minutes away.

What Is Being Built Near Vasari Country Club?

The largest project near Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs is FDOT’s I-75 widening, project 452544-1, which runs along Vasari’s eastern edge and starts with new lanes between Immokalee Road and Bonita Beach Road. FDOT scheduled public hearings for October 27, 2026 in person and October 28, 2026 online.

The I-75 widening next door

FDOT lists the project as the widening of I-75 from north of Golden Gate Parkway to south of Alico Road, 21 miles, in the construction phase with a listed start of mid 2026, and the September 2026 presentation says construction is anticipated to begin in fall 2026 (FDOT project 452544-1). FDOT scheduled the in-person hearing for Tuesday, October 27, 2026 and the virtual hearing for Wednesday, October 28, 2026. Exit 116, at Bonita Beach Road, is about 0.28 mile from the nearest Vasari parcel.

Noise walls: what the plans show so far

FDOT’s roll plot dated September 1, 2026, as drawn, labels Vasari on the Exit 116 sheet and shows an existing privacy wall along Vasari’s side of I-75, with no proposed noise wall on that side; a proposed noise wall line is drawn on the opposite side, toward Hunters Ridge (FDOT presentation). We describe the drawing and do not read it as a prediction. If a home’s distance to the interstate matters to you, read FDOT’s project page and ask us to bring the sheet for the home you are considering.

How Do We Find You the Right Home in Vasari Country Club?

We find the right Vasari Country Club home in Bonita Springs by screening each listing for the costs it hides before you tour: the product and section, the CDD class, the association layers, the flood and wind facts, the roof and the recorded sales nearby. Then we tour the few that survive.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County recorded sales, our analysis, through September 25, 2026; Vasari CDD FY2026 budget.

Step one: the section and the street

We match every candidate to its recorded section, because the street names mislead: Altessa Way serves four sections, and Pienza Court, Via D Arezzo Drive, Via Cercina Drive and Altessa Way are the four single-family streets. A listing’s section sets the CDD class, the association layer and the price range.

Step two: the lot file

For every home that survives we pull the CDD class, the FEMA zone and panel, the evacuation zone, the permit history on the county record and the recorded sales nearby. Listings we hear about before they reach the market go through the same screen.

Step three: tours that answer questions

A Vasari tour looks at the roof, the air-conditioning, the garage or carport, the lot line and, for course-side homes, the position relative to the fairway. We ask the club for the facility details the club does not publish, and we ask each village for its rules in writing.

How Do We Negotiate for You in Vasari Country Club in 2026?

We negotiate Vasari Country Club purchases in Bonita Springs from the record. Lee County recorded 35 sales in 12 months at a $400,000 median, 13 of them between $300,000 and $400,000 and 11 at $750,000 or more, so price depends on section. The MLS median is 86 days on market at 93.6 percent of list price.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: Lee County recorded sales, our analysis, through September 25, 2026; Southwest Florida MLS (Matrix), development VASARI, pull of October 21, 2026.

Price from the section, not the community

We price from recorded sales of the same section, plan size and condition, including sales that never reached the MLS, and we say in writing which sales we excluded and why. A $332,500 Matera median and a $749,000 Altessa median describe different markets, and a community-wide median describes neither. The MLS pace differs by size too: homes under 1,600 square feet took a median of 75 days at 92.4 percent of list price, and those of 3,000 square feet and up took 16 days at 94.5 percent.

What we negotiate

On a resale, price is one term among several. We look at the inspection period, repairs or credits, who pays the estoppel fee, who pays the Resale Transfer Fee, the closing date, the personal property that stays and any assessment balance the estoppel shows. A buyer who has read the declaration and the CDD budget can ask for the right credits, and a seller who has the documents ready removes a source of doubt.

Terms that protect you

On the AS IS form the initial deposit is due within 3 days, the additional deposit within 10 days, the inspection period is 15 days, the loan application is due within 5 days and the approval period defaults to 30 days. We set those dates to fit the estoppel, the insurance quotes and the lender’s condominium review, and we never let a deadline pass on a deposit without a written extension in hand. The deposit is held in escrow and is returned if you terminate in time under the inspection or financing provisions.

Using what the documents find

An estoppel balance, a Resale Transfer Fee higher than expected, a condominium reserve schedule that is thin, a roof an insurer will not accept or a CDD class different from the one you were told are negotiating points. They carry more weight inside the contract’s review periods than after them.

What Are the Pros and Cons of Buying in Vasari Country Club?

The case for Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs rests on bundled golf with club land owned by the homeowners, Zone X flood maps at every home site tested and a CDD bond scheduled to end in 2027. The case against: $13,601.02 in yearly master dues before village dues, Zone B evacuation and an I-75 widening next door.

Data updated: October 2026. Source: the records cited in the sections above, read October 10, 2026; Lee County recorded sales, our analysis, windows to September 25, 2026.

Pros, from the record

  • Golf and club amenities bundled with the home. Membership comes with the home and cannot be sold separately, and the Master Association owns the clubhouse and golf tracts of record (club Q&A; declaration).
  • No separate initiation fee and no food and beverage minimum. The club’s Q&A says so directly, though extras such as dining, events and lessons are billed when used.
  • Zone X at every home site tested. All 766 home sites fall outside the Special Flood Hazard Area on the live FEMA layer (October 10, 2026).
  • A district bond with a scheduled end. The Series 2012 CDD bonds, 2.79 percent fixed, have a final maturity of May 1, 2027, with $695,000 outstanding after the May 1, 2026 payment, and the FY2027 proposal lowers the total CDD assessment by 14.4 to 23.1 percent.
  • Two-story condominium buildings. The county records every condominium building at two stories, below the three-story threshold of the milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study laws.
  • A range of products in one gate. 29 condominium sales at a $352,000 median in 12 months and 13 single-family sales at a $1,125,000 median in 24 months.
  • Rental flexibility within limits. Leases of 30 days or more, up to six a year, with village rules possibly stricter.

Cons, from the record

  • Master dues are high, and the figures are off the club’s site. The Master Association’s 2026 dues are $13,601.02 a year, with quarterly village or condominium dues on top and a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari. They are in the association’s fee schedule, not on the club’s public site, and the estoppel confirms them for an address.
  • Evacuation Zone B and the surge envelope. The worst-case envelope runs from no inundation in Category 1 and 2 storms to 12 to 15 feet above ground in Category 5.
  • An I-75 widening next door, with noise walls undecided. Construction is expected to begin in 2026, and the plot as drawn on September 1, 2026 shows an existing privacy wall and no proposed noise wall on Vasari’s side.
  • Homes that are 19 to 24 years old. Roofs, air-conditioning and exterior systems are at or approaching replacement ages in many homes, so ask for permits and the association’s reserve records.
  • District operating costs continue after the bonds. The CDD’s operating assessment of $1,100 per unit is proposed for FY2027, and the board sets it each year.
  • Guest golf limits in season. Guests play from noon onward January through March, not on Fridays January through April, and at any time on weekends.

None of these is a reason to walk away, and each is a reason to ask for a document before a contract is signed. A buyer who wants a second set of eyes on those documents can read how we represent buyers.

Selling a Home to Buy in Vasari Country Club?

Filters that matter here

Price and bedrooms are the least useful filters in Vasari. The ones that matter are product (condominium or single-family), section, parking (garage or carport), year built, and the street, because the street sets the section. If you want a course-side single-family home, say so.

What you get out of it

A carrying-cost model with the CDD, taxes and association layers separated from the mortgage; the recorded comparables for the section you are considering; the FEMA zone and panel for any address you name; a read of the estoppel when it arrives; and an estimate of your cash to close from the Florida figures in this guide. You are working with Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008.

What we will ask you

Your timing, whether you are financing, whether you intend to homestead, whether you are selling a Florida home and might have portability to carry, whether you want a condominium or a single-family home, and whether golf, the garage, the flood and storm picture or the drive to the airport decides it for you.

On a purchase that closed fast

★★★★★ “Best realtor experience ever! We were out of own buyers coming in for the weekend to look for a new home, Marc was extremely organized in taking us to see a number of houses and shuffling the schedule, as we arrived early, to make the best use of our time. He was extremely helpful in negotiating what we thought was a great deal on the new home that we purchased that same weekend. Beyond that he was kind enough to take some measurements at the house for us weeks later to keep us from making a trip back to town before the closing. We will most definitely be using this realtor again if the need arrives in the future.” Verified Google review

  • Whether each condominium association’s quarterly dues include building insurance, water, sewer or reserves. Settled by that association’s budget and the estoppel.
  • Whether the board treats the $12,000 capital contribution as the Resale Transfer Fee. Settled by the board’s notice and the estoppel.
  • The adopted FY2027 CDD budget, not posted on the district’s documents page when we checked on October 30, 2026. Settled by that page once it is posted.
  • The amount, date and purpose of the earlier assessment some owners paid. Settled by the estoppel.
  • Court counts, pool hours and the dining outlet list at the club. Settled by the club.
  • Whether any Vasari association has completed an inspection or reserve study report. Settled by each association’s records.
  • The water and sewer provider, because the records conflict. Settled by the utility’s address lookup.
  • Homeowners and flood insurance premiums. Settled by a binding quote for the exact home.

Is golf included when I buy a home in Vasari Country Club?

Yes. Every owner is automatically a Class A member of the Master Association, and the club’s Questions and Answers say the community is bundled, so golf and club amenities are included with ownership. Membership cannot be sold separately from the home. Food and beverage, events, lessons, golf cart fees when applicable and certain guest fees are billed when used.

Is there an initiation fee at Vasari Country Club?

The club states there is no separate initiation fee and no additional club membership to purchase (club Questions and Answers). The 2024 restated declaration lets the board set a Resale Transfer Fee that the buyer pays at closing (Section 12.13). The association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member, which reads as that fee (our inference), so check the estoppel for the figure that applies.

Is Vasari Country Club equity or non-equity?

No club document we read uses either word. The recorded declaration supports a structure in which membership comes with the home and the Master Association owns the clubhouse and golf tracts of record (Amended and Restated Declaration). We describe that structure and leave the label to the documents for your section.

Who owns the Vasari golf course and clubhouse?

The county roll shows the Vasari Country Club Master Association, a Florida not-for-profit corporation, owning 12 parcels of about 129.9 acres, including the 78.79-acre clubhouse and amenity tract and the three dry golf tracts (Lee County GIS parcel layer). No developer or outside operator appears as owner of record on the club parcels.

Village or condominium dues are billed quarterly on top: $466.72 to $588.50 in landscape dues for Pienza, Cercina, Bellino and Arezzo and $1,575 to $2,415 for condominiums. The CDD adds $1,709.34 to $2,578.52 in FY2026 (adopted budget). Together the fixed carry runs $17,785.21 to $25,448.28 a year before tax and insurance, and the estoppel confirms the figures for an address.

What do Vasari dues cover?

What does a Vasari buyer pay beyond the dues?

A buyer pays the CDD assessment and county taxes on the November bill, a village or condominium association’s dues for most homes, insurance, the capital contribution at closing ($12,000 for a buyer new to Vasari, $6,000 for an existing member; we read it as the Resale Transfer Fee), and club charges for dining, events, lessons and certain guest fees when used. The fee stack table above lists each layer with its source.

Is there a food and beverage minimum at Vasari?

No. The club’s Questions and Answers state no food and beverage minimum, and dining is a pay-as-used charge (club Questions and Answers). Worthington, by comparison, publishes a $1,000 minimum in its 2026 fee schedule.

Are there special assessments at Vasari Country Club?

The club says there are no planned special assessments, and that some owners paid an earlier assessment in full while others may carry a balance, which the estoppel shows. Under the declaration, a special assessment above 24 percent of the Base Assessment needs a member vote (Section 12.6).

How much is the Vasari CDD assessment?

For FY2026 the district bills $1,709.34 (Trieste) to $2,578.52 (Arezzo) a home, made of a $1,100 operating assessment plus a debt line that depends on the bond class. The June 15, 2026 proposal for FY2027 runs $1,463.77 to $1,982.66 (Vasari CDD FY2027 proposed budget). The adopted figures were not posted when we checked on October 30, 2026.

What is the Resale Transfer Fee at Vasari?

The 2024 restated declaration lets the board set a fee levied on the buyer at closing, effective at least 90 days after the board publishes it, with exemptions for estates, spouses, trusts and wholly owned planning entities (Section 12.13). The declaration states no dollar amount. The association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member, which reads as that fee (our inference), and the estoppel confirms the figure that applies.

Should I buy a Vasari condominium or a single-family home?

It depends on budget and what you want from the home. Condominiums sold at a $352,000 median over 12 months and add a village or condominium association; single-family homes sold at a $1,125,000 median over 24 months and answer to the Master Association, with quarterly landscape dues in some neighborhoods. See the decision table above for the other differences.

Who pays for title insurance in a Lee County purchase?

In Lee County the seller customarily pays for the owner’s title policy and the deed documentary stamps, while the buyer pays for the lender’s policy and the mortgage taxes. This is custom, not law, and the contract controls, so we confirm who pays what before the offer is signed (rule 69O-186.003).

What documents should I receive before I sign on a Vasari home?

The estoppel certificate, the resale package, the declarations for the section, the articles, bylaws and rules, the budget and financial statement, the reserve schedule, the insurance documents, and the CDD assessment class. Section 718.503 entitles a condominium resale buyer to many of these at the seller’s expense (Florida Statutes 718.503).

How much does an estoppel certificate cost in Florida?

The statutory base is $250 when nothing is owed, plus $100 if expedited and $150 if delinquent, adjusted for inflation every five years. The current DBPR-adjusted caps are $299, plus $119 for delivery within three business days and $179 if delinquent, with the next adjustment due by July 1, 2027 (DBPR fee schedule).

The master declaration as we read it has no age restriction, in Articles 4, 5, 12 and 14 of the 2002 and 2024 documents (Amended and Restated Declaration). The village supplements and condominium declarations may add rules, and the documents for your section control.

All 766 home sites we tested by county centroid fall in FEMA Zone X: 664 shaded and 102 minimal-hazard, with none in a Special Flood Hazard Area (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, October 10, 2026). Zone X is a map classification, and your lender’s determination for the exact address controls.

What evacuation zone is Vasari in?

Lee County places Vasari in evacuation Zone B (surge zone 2) at all 40 points we queried (Lee County Emergency Management, Zone B). Zone B is a surge planning zone and not a flood zone, and whether an order names it is a county decision storm by storm.

On the county record, all 95 condominium buildings are two stories, and both laws apply to buildings of three habitable stories or more (Section 553.899; Section 718.112). This is the record, not a legal opinion, and the association’s records show what it has done.

If you tour with a participating agent, a written buyer agreement is required before touring under the August 2024 National Association of Realtors practice changes (NAR, Written Buyer Agreements 101). Florida Realtors publishes the single-agent form, EBBA-8sa, and we give it to you to read first.

Use the district’s lookup for the exact address, because a zone sets busing and not choice.

Bonita Beach Park is 13 to 16 minutes and Southwest Florida International Airport is 24 to 28 minutes, without traffic, from five points inside the gate (OSRM routing, October 10, 2026).
