Buying in Verona Walk means a CDD line on the tax bill, flood letters that differ by plat, and an HOA approval step before closing. McGreevy and Comisar walk you through all of it from the record, with prices by home type from 97 MLS closings. Start your buyer consultation or call Marc direct at (239) 287-5873.

Buying a home in Verona Walk, the gated DiVosta community of 1,920 homes on Collier Boulevard in East Naples, Florida 34114, is two purchases wearing one name. Attached villas and townhomes sold at a median of $440,000 over the last twelve months and detached homes at $705,000. Every home carries a Community Development District line on its tax bill, the association assessment is not published, the buyer pays a resale capital contribution at closing, and the flood answer depends on the specific house. This page is the step by step purchase path. For the full portrait of the community itself, its Town Center, governance, plats and history, read our Verona Walk community guide.

Buying a home in Verona Walk takes four things most Naples resales do not: association approval with an exterior inspection and a 30-day application, a CDD figure and payoff for the lot class, an estoppel certificate to learn the unpublished assessment, and a FEMA check on the specific house, because many homes carry a Letter of Map Amendment and many do not.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, Development: Verona Walk, retrieved 24 Sep 2026; Collier County 2026 preliminary roll, retrieved 24 Sep 2026; Verona Walk CDD adopted budget FY2026/27).
Everything below comes from the recorded Declaration of Covenants at Official Records Book 3506, Page 903, recorded February 23, 2004, and its recorded amendments; the VeronaWalk Homeowners Association’s own forms and notices; the Verona Walk Community Development District’s budgets, audit and bond table; Collier County’s 2026 preliminary roll and building footprints; the Southwest Florida MLS pulled September 24, 2026; and FEMA’s own flood records. Where the public record is silent, this page says so and names who holds the answer.
Collier County’s 2025 building footprints split Verona Walk’s 1,920 homes into about 944 attached villas and townhomes and about 976 detached homes. In the Southwest Florida MLS over the twelve months to September 24, 2026, the 57 attached sales closed at a median of $440,000 and the 40 detached sales at a median of $705,000, the midpoint of the two middle sales, $700,000 and $710,000.
Those two halves behave differently. On September 24, 2026 attached homes had 1.5 months of supply and detached homes 4.2 months. An attached buyer is shopping a thin field where the right villa may be the only one of its kind that week. A detached buyer has choice, time and room to compare. A community median of $494,000 describes neither, so the first question we ask a Verona Walk buyer is which half they are buying in.
Inside that housing stock are four genuinely different purchases, and a buyer should decide which one they are making before looking at a single listing.
All four share one homeowners association, one Town Center and one district. Crossing from one plat to another does not change your association, your manager or your amenities; it changes the lot class, which sets the district’s debt line and the association’s component for your home type. There are no condominiums: every one of the 1,920 homes is coded as a single-family parcel on Collier County’s 2026 roll, so a villa buyer owns the lot under the home.
Four absences decide purchases here as often as any amenity does. There is no golf course inside the gates; Collier County’s roll shows no golf-course parcel in any of the 19 plats. There is no marina, no Gulf access and no beach; the lakes are the stormwater system and the Declaration calls them “primarily aesthetic amenities.” There is no club to join, no initiation fee and no equity membership, because the Town Center belongs to the homeowners association. And Verona Walk is not a 55-plus community: its recorded Declaration contains no age restriction, and the association describes the community as open to all ages.
Verona Walk is also not a new-construction community today. Every lot on the roll carries a home, so a Verona Walk purchase is a resale purchase, which puts the weight on the documents: the estoppel certificate, the district’s payoff figure, the flood record for the house and the association’s approval.
McGreevy and Comisar represent Verona Walk buyers from the record outward: the Southwest Florida MLS split by building footprint, the district’s budget and bond table, the association’s recorded Declaration and forms, Collier County’s roll and FEMA’s amendment letters. We have been Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008 and the #1 Team in Southwest Florida since 2012.
That combination of market volume and primary-source discipline is what this community requires, because the facts that decide a Verona Walk purchase live in district tables, association notices and FEMA letters rather than in listing remarks.

Verona Walk is governed by one homeowners association, the VeronaWalk Homeowners Association, managed by KW Property Management, and one special district, the Verona Walk Community Development District. The association’s assessment is not published, the district’s figure changes by lot class, the capital contribution is a fraction of that unpublished assessment, and FEMA’s answer changes house by house. An agent who has not read those records cannot tell you what you will pay.
What we owe you is specific: the estoppel certificate ordered through HomeWiseDocs on day one of the contract, the district figure and payoff for the exact lot class in hand before you write, the FEMA record and any elevation certificate for the house you are buying, the association’s 30-day application and exterior inspection written into the contract dates, and a carrying-cost model built on the tax bill you will pay rather than the one the seller pays today.
This page runs long on purpose, in the order a purchase actually happens. Use the list below to jump to the section you need, or read it end to end before your first tour.
We track Verona Walk through the Southwest Florida MLS, which counted 97 closings in the twelve months to September 24, 2026, and we split every sale by Collier County’s building footprint rather than the listing label, because 13 paired villas sold in the last four years were listed as single-family homes and would otherwise inflate the detached count.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, Development: Verona Walk, retrieved 24 Sep 2026; Collier County Building 2025 footprints and 2026 preliminary roll, retrieved 24 Sep 2026).
In the last 12 months we tracked every Verona Walk closing in the Southwest Florida MLS: 97 sales totaling $54,338,799, at a median of $494,000. We checked the scope two ways, by the MLS development field and by the subdivision name, and both returned 97. Every one of the 391 listings in the four-year search resolves by street address to one of the 1,920 Verona Walk home parcels on Collier County’s 2026 roll, so nothing from a similarly named community leaked in.
We tracked the district’s debt line and payoff for every lot class, the association’s current purchase, lease and capital contribution documents, FEMA’s 204 completed amendment determinations naming Veronawalk, and the zoned schools for 43 addresses on every interior street. That is the evidence base behind every figure on this page.
Every figure on this page describes the Verona Walk market, not McGreevy and Comisar. Our credentials are stated in the section above as career numbers across Lee and Collier County, and we keep the two apart on purpose. You will not find a McGreevy and Comisar sales count for Verona Walk here. A buyer deciding what to offer on a Carlyle-class home needs the Carlyle-class record, not an agent’s scoreboard.
When you sit down with us, we will walk the specific product, the specific lake exposure and the specific comparable set for the home you want, and we will show you the source line for every figure we use.
We bring three things to a Verona Walk offer that a general Naples search does not. First, the sale to list and days on market record split by attached and detached, which tells you how much room there usually is for your product. Second, the district’s figure and payoff for the exact lot class, which tells you what the house costs to carry before the estoppel arrives. Third, the FEMA record for the specific house, which tells you whether flood insurance is a line item, a lender’s option or a negotiating point.
The Verona Walk market is faster than a year ago and tighter for attached homes than detached ones. The Southwest Florida MLS shows 97 closings in the twelve months to September 24, 2026 at a median of $494,000, a median of 53 days on market and a 96.31 percent median sale to list ratio, with 1.5 months of attached supply and 4.2 detached.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, Development: Verona Walk, retrieved 24 Sep 2026).
Closed sales, September 24, 2025 to September 24, 2026 | All homes | Attached villas and townhomes | Detached homes |
|---|---|---|---|
Closed sales | 97 | 57 | 40 |
Median sale price | $494,000 | $440,000 | $705,000 (midpoint of $700,000 and $710,000) |
Median list price | $499,900 | $475,000 | $747,000 (midpoint of $745,000 and $749,000) |
Median living area | 1,700 sq ft | 1,542 sq ft | 2,000 sq ft |
Median price per sq ft of living area | $306.19 | $279.92 | $334.26 |
Median sale to list ratio | 96.31% | 96.31% | 96.25% |
Median days on market | 53 | 57 | 42.5 |
Sold at or above list price | 12 of 97 | 9 of 57 | 3 of 40 |
Total closed volume | $54,338,799 | $26,199,899 | $28,138,900 |
Sale price range | $305,000 to $1,030,000 | $305,000 to $599,000 | $400,000 to $1,030,000 |
Attached and detached are split by Collier County’s 2025 building footprints, not by the listing label. Each median is the middle sale of its group; where the count is even, as with the 40 detached homes, it is the midpoint of the two middle sales. Price per square foot is each sale price divided by the MLS living area, then the median of those ratios.
Months of supply is the number of active listings divided by the average number of closings per month over the last twelve months. On September 24, 2026 that was 1.5 months for attached homes and 4.2 months for detached homes. A buyer of a villa or townhome is competing for a thin field: 9 of the 57 attached homes sold at or above list, and a clean, well-priced villa rarely waits. A buyer of a detached home has alternatives, and only 3 of the 40 detached homes sold at or above list, so there is usually room to negotiate on a detached home priced ahead of its lot class.
In the prior twelve months, September 24, 2024 to September 23, 2025, Verona Walk recorded 89 closings at a median of $537,500, a median of 75 days on market and a median sale to list ratio of 95.57 percent. This year closings rose to 97, days on market fell to 53 and the sale to list ratio rose to 96.31 percent.
Prior twelve months, September 24, 2024 to September 23, 2025 | All homes | Attached | Detached |
|---|---|---|---|
Closed sales | 89 | 49 | 40 |
Median sale price | $537,500 | $470,000 | $696,250 (midpoint of $695,000 and $697,500) |
Median price per sq ft of living area | $312.66 | $292.21 | $335.96 |
Median days on market | 75 | 73 | 75 |
Median sale to list ratio | 95.57% | 95.49% | 95.79% |
Prices moved in opposite directions by type: the attached median fell from $470,000 to $440,000, while the detached median held level, $705,000 against $696,250. For an attached buyer that is a lower entry price than a year ago in a faster market. One prior-year attached sale was entered into the MLS after closing and carries no days on market or list figure, so those two medians use 88 sales overall and 48 attached.
On September 24, 2026 the 21 active Verona Walk listings had a median list price of $699,900, a range of $425,000 to $1,249,999, a median of 52 days on market and a median list price of $349.95 per square foot of living area. Nine more homes were pending.
Active on September 24, 2026 | Active | Median list price | List range | Median days on market | Median list $ per sq ft | Months of supply | Pending |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
All homes | 21 | $699,900 | $425,000 to $1,249,999 | 52 | $349.95 | 2.6 | 9 |
Attached | 7 | $489,000 | $425,000 to $539,000 | 23 | $288.93 | 1.5 | 4 |
Detached | 14 | $783,950 (midpoint of $769,000 and $798,900) | $519,000 to $1,249,999 | 68.5 | $363.39 | 4.2 | 5 |
The median active detached listing asked $783,950, which is $78,950 above the $705,000 median detached sale of the prior twelve months, and $363.39 per square foot of living area against $334.26 sold. The median active attached listing asked $489,000 against a $440,000 sold median. Those gaps are the asking side; the 96.31 percent median sale to list ratio is what buyers actually paid. We publish the shape of the inventory rather than a named list, because a named list goes stale within days.
Verona Walk produced 97 MLS closings in twelve months, but the attached side ran at 1.5 months of supply on September 24, 2026, so the right villa or townhome may be under contract within days of listing. The buyer who wins it is already financed, already holds the district figure for the lot class and already knows the house’s FEMA record.

A Verona Walk home costs what its product and lot class cost. By the MLS label over the last twelve months, villas sold at a median of $462,500, townhomes at $435,000 and single-family homes at $700,000, and on Collier County’s 2026 roll the median just value by district lot class runs from $380,438 to $738,143.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, Development: Verona Walk, closings September 26, 2022 to September 24, 2026, retrieved 24 Sep 2026; Collier County 2026 preliminary roll joined to the Verona Walk CDD bond table, retrieved 24 Sep 2026).
Product, as labeled in the MLS, twelve months to September 24, 2026 | Sales | Median sale price | Median $ per sq ft of living area | Median days on market |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Villa Attached | 43 | $462,500 | $296.01 | 56 |
Townhouse | 13 | $435,000 | $232.87 | 70 |
Single Family | 41 | $700,000 | $332.83 | 44 |
The Single Family line includes one home that the county’s building footprint shows as an attached villa. Townhomes were the slowest product, at a median of 70 days on market, and the lowest price per square foot, which is worth knowing if you can live with stairs.
Calendar year | Attached sales | Attached median | Detached sales | Detached median |
|---|---|---|---|---|
2023 | 41 | $549,900 | 38 | $805,000 (midpoint of $800,000 and $810,000) |
2024 | 41 | $512,000 | 45 | $785,000 |
2025 | 53 | $449,000 | 45 | $680,000 |
2026, January 1 to September 23 | 41 | $462,500 | 29 | $710,000 |
Across the 48 months from September 26, 2022 to September 23, 2026, Verona Walk recorded 361 closings at a median of $570,000, $335.29 per square foot of living area, a median of 47 days on market and a median sale to list ratio of 96.66 percent. The 192 attached sales had a median of $492,000 and the 169 detached sales a median of $750,000. For a buyer, the series says today’s prices sit below the 2023 peak for both types, and that a seller who bought at the peak may be anchored above today’s market.
The Verona Walk Community Development District sorts every home into a phase and a lot class, from 26-foot townhome lots to 65-foot estate lots, and those classes line up with Collier County’s value tiers.
District lot class (annual debt line) | Homes | Median 2026 just value |
|---|---|---|
Phase I townhome and villa ($540) | 509 | $380,438 |
Phase II villa and 36 to 40-foot lots ($511) | 438 | $394,330.50 |
Garden, 40-foot lots in Phase 4C ($577) | 53 | $411,026 |
Phase I Oakmont, 50-foot lots ($635) | 269 | $532,602 |
Phase II Oakmont, 50-foot lots ($601) | 317 | $558,306 |
Phase I Carlyle, 60-foot lots ($730) | 95 | $675,093 |
Phase II Carlyle, 60 and 65-foot lots ($691) | 161 | $705,509 |
Estate, 65-foot lots on Karina Court ($759) | 32 | $738,143 |
Community-wide | 1,920 | $439,340 |
Just value is Collier County’s estimate as of January 1, 2026, not a sale price, and an even count’s median is the mean of the two middle values; 46 prepaid homes are counted in the community-wide line. Read the table as a ranking a buyer can plan around, never as an offer price.
About 768 of Verona Walk’s homes are one-story paired villas. Most villa lots sit in the district’s lowest debt classes, $540 in Phase I and $511 in Phase II, for a total district assessment of $744.85 to $773.85 a year; Garden-class lots in Phase 4C pay $810.85. Since the 2015 recorded amendment, the owner, not the association, paints the exterior walls and cleans the roof of an attached home, so the two owners of a paired building share an interest in when the building is painted. Ask when it was last done.
Verona Walk’s 176 two-story townhomes are in VeronaWalk Townhomes 1 and VeronaWalk Townhomes 2, on lots of about 0.07 acre, the smallest in the community, close to the Town Center on Chianti, Josefa, Rimini and Sorrento and along VeronaWalk Circle and Boulevard. Their median 2026 just value is $369,195. The district files them under “Townhome (Cayman),” 26-foot frontage, with a $540 debt line and a $773.85 total. Every plan the builder offered after 2006 except the Dublon townhome was one story, so the townhome is the one Verona Walk purchase that comes with stairs.
About 976 Verona Walk homes are detached, grouped by the district as Oakmont on 50-foot lots, Carlyle on 60 and 65-foot lots, and Estate on 65-foot lots. The 32 Estate homes on the Karina Court 2nd Replat carry the community’s highest debt line, $759, a total district assessment of $992.85 a year, and a median 2026 just value of $738,143. The nine homes on the VeronaWalk 4A Verducci Court Replat have a median lot of 0.44 acre, against a community median of 0.15 acre. The highest Verona Walk sale of the last twelve months closed at $1,030,000.
Listing agents do not always label Verona Walk homes the way they are built. Across four years of MLS sales, 13 paired villas on Rozzini, Genova, Novara, Erice, Yasmina, Marconi, Ionio, Xenia and Salerno were listed as single-family homes. A buyer who searches “single family” on a portal will see some paired villas, and a buyer who compares a villa’s price against detached sales will think it is a bargain when it is not. We split every comparable by the county’s building footprint, which shows whether a home shares a building with another home parcel.
Among five Naples lakes communities measured on one twelve-month MLS search, Verona Walk has the lowest median sale price, $494,000, and trades at about the same price per square foot as its two Walk siblings: $306.19 against $301.57 at Island Walk and $308.44 at Village Walk of Naples. For a buyer, Verona Walk is the lower-priced entry to that lakes-and-Town-Center plan.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, each community by its own Development name, City: Naples, closings September 24, 2025 to September 24, 2026, retrieved 24 Sep 2026).
Community | Closed sales | Median sale | Median $ per sq ft of living area | Median days on market | Median sale to list | Single-family median (sales) | Attached median (sales) |

Method: the same Southwest Florida MLS search for each community, by its own MLS development name, City: Naples, closings September 24, 2025 to September 24, 2026, all pulled the same day. In this table homes are split by the listing’s own building label in every community, so Verona Walk’s attached median here, $445,000, the midpoint of $440,000 and $450,000, differs from the footprint-based $440,000 above. Village Walk’s figures exclude Village Walk of Bonita Springs, a different community with its own MLS name, and Island Walk’s exclude one listing filed with a Venice address. Winding Cypress’s median is the midpoint of $800,000 and $815,000.
Winding Cypress, Verona Walk’s southern neighbour, was built by DiVosta under the same Winding Cypress planned development, and Naples Reserve sits about 0.9 mile south-east. Both are newer and more heavily single-family, which is why their community medians run $313,500 and $463,500 higher than Verona Walk’s. A buyer who wants a newer detached home and a larger budget should tour both; a buyer who wants a finished Town Center at a lower entry price will usually land in Verona Walk.
Village Walk of Naples, the first of DiVosta’s three Walk communities, recorded 49 sales at a median of $517,000 and the fastest median time on market of the five, 44 days. It has 850 homes, sits entirely outside FEMA’s Special Flood Hazard Area on the current map and publishes its quarterly assessment by floor plan. A buyer choosing between the two is weighing Village Walk’s simpler flood answer and published fees against Verona Walk’s larger product range, its six pickleball courts, its services inside the gates and its East Naples location.
Verona Walk and Island Walk are the two DiVosta Walk communities Naples buyers most often weigh against each other. Island Walk, in North Naples, closed 121 sales at a $530,000 median with no CDD and a published budget; Verona Walk, in East Naples, closed 97 at $494,000 with a CDD levy but more courts, a wider product range and a lower entry price.

Attached median, by listing label (MLS) | $445,000 (56 sales) | $457,500 (60 sales) |
The MLS rows cover the same twelve-month window for both communities, pulled the same day. County just values are Collier County’s estimates as of January 1, 2026 and are never compared directly with MLS sale prices. The Island Walk assessment is derived: the association’s 2026 budget divided by 1,856 homes, because its Declaration levies assessments equally on all units and the association does not print a per-home figure.
Choose Verona Walk if you want the most courts of the two, a restaurant, post office and gas station inside the gates, East Naples and the Marco Island side of town, a hospital about five minutes away, and an entry price that starts with attached villas and townhomes, and you are comfortable with a CDD line on your tax bill until 2037 and a flood answer decided house by house.
Choose Island Walk if you want no CDD, cable and internet in the dues, a published fee, a fixed $1,500 capital contribution and all-A zoned schools in North Naples, closer to the North Naples beaches and the airport corridor.
The two communities sell detached homes at the same $700,000 label median and trade within $5 a square foot of each other, so the choice is rarely about price per foot. It is about the CDD, the side of town and the schools. Marc Comisar at (239) 287-5873 will run the same comparison on the two specific homes you are weighing.
Buying in Verona Walk runs in eight steps: choose the product and lot class, check the house’s FEMA record, price the carrying cost, write the offer with the association’s calendar, order the estoppel, file the purchase application, clear inspections and insurance, and close on the association’s approval certificate. Each step below names the document.
Data updated: September 2026 (VeronaWalk purchase application modified July 30, 2025; Declaration Sections 19.1 to 19.4; Verona Walk CDD bond table good through October 31, 2026).
The order matters because two of those steps run on outside clocks: the association’s application, which it asks to receive at least 30 days before closing, and its approval certificate, which it issues within 10 business days under the Declaration. Put both in the contract at the start and neither will push your closing date.
Decide whether you are buying a villa, a townhome, a detached home or a Karina Court estate home, then which lot class. The lot class sets your district debt line, from $511 to $759 a year, and the association’s component for your home type. It also sets your comparable set. Tell us whether you want to be near the Town Center, on a particular lake exposure, or near the south gate toward Winding Cypress Boulevard.
Before touring, search the address on the FEMA Map Service Center. On FEMA’s February 8, 2024 map nearly every Verona Walk lot is in Zone AH or AE, but FEMA issued 121 single-structure letters for Verona Walk homes in 2024, 120 of them placing the house in Zone X (shaded), and revalidated the builder-era phase-wide letters. Ask the seller for any letter and a current elevation certificate, then get a flood quote on that record.
Write down the district figure for the lot class from the district’s adopted budget for fiscal 2026/27, the home’s payoff from the bond balance table, the $261.91 county solid waste line, and the property tax at 10.4020 mills on your purchase price rather than the seller’s bill. The association assessment is the one number you will not have until the estoppel arrives, so leave room for it in the inspection period.
Write the closing date at least 30 days after the contract, because the association’s purchase application, modified July 30, 2025, asks for submission at least 30 days before closing. The Declaration requires at least 20 days’ notice to the association before a sale; the current form asks for 30, so plan on 30. Price the offer against the lot class’s record and the 96.31 percent median sale to list, not against the asking price alone.
Verona Walk has one homeowners association and no separate villa, townhome or neighbourhood association, so a Verona Walk sale needs one association estoppel certificate, which the association processes through HomeWiseDocs. Florida Statutes 720.30851 sets what it must state, including the assessments owed. It is the only document that states the home’s current assessment and, from it, the capital contribution you will pay. Make sure it is ordered the day the contract is signed.
The buyer files the association’s purchase application with a $100 non-refundable fee, waived for a current owner moving within Verona Walk. The form states “No Roommates permitted,” and both the purchase and lease forms state that the Declaration requires single-family residence. The association inspects the home’s exterior before it approves, and outstanding compliance issues must be corrected first, which is the seller’s job; ask for the inspection result early.
Order a general inspection, a wind mitigation inspection and a four-point inspection if your carrier asks for one. A Verona Walk home completed in 2005 turned 20 in 2025, the age at which Citizens requires a four-point inspection; a roof original to a home built before about 2011 is now past 15 years, the line at which Florida law lets an insurer require an inspection. Bind flood coverage early if your lender requires it.
Under Section 19.3 of the Declaration the association issues its approval certificate within 10 business days, and under Section 19.4 it may disapprove a sale while the owner is delinquent or in violation, which is one more reason the seller’s account and exterior should be clean before closing. At closing you pay the resale capital contribution, and your association membership begins with the deed under Section 3.2.
A Verona Walk owner pays the association’s quarterly assessment, which is not published and appears on the estoppel, the Verona Walk CDD’s annual $744.85 to $992.85 on the November tax bill, county property taxes at 10.4020 mills on the 2026 preliminary roll, and $261.91 of county solid waste. A buyer also pays a one-time capital contribution at closing.

The VeronaWalk Homeowners Association does not publish its assessment. Under the recorded Declaration, as amended in 2004, each home pays a base component plus a component set by home type, so a townhome, a villa and a detached home pay different amounts, billed quarterly in advance. The current amount for a specific home appears in the association’s annual budget and on the estoppel certificate issued for every resale. We do not print a figure from any other source.
What the assessment pays for is set by Article V of the Declaration: the surface water management system, irrigation, common-area landscaping, fertilization and pest control, common-area utilities, the Town Center and its amenities, management and reserves. A late charge of up to $30 can apply after 30 days. The Declaration allows a bulk cable or security-monitoring contract to be billed through the assessment; whether one is in the current budget is not published.
The association’s Resale Capital Contribution Fund notice, effective June 1, 2024, describes the contribution as “a fee paid as part of the closing costs when purchasing a property located in Veronawalk” and “equal to 1/4th of the annual maintenance fees depending on the type of home model being purchased.” Buyers pay a one-time, non-refundable resale capital contribution at closing equal to one quarter of the annual assessment for the home type purchased, deposited to the association’s reserves.
It has limited exemptions. A current owner buying another Verona Walk home as a personal residence gets a one-time exemption: the fee is paid at closing and refunded if the first home sells within 180 days, and the exemption does not apply to a purchase for rental use. Transfers due to death, divorce, a transfer to a trust or business, a transfer to a co-owner and foreclosure are also exempt.
Phase | Lot type (builder model family) | Front footage | O&M | Debt | Total annual CDD |

Source: Verona Walk Community Development District, adopted budget FY2026/27, Section V, identical in the FY2025/26 budget. The gross figures already include the 4 percent early-payment discount and the 3.5 percent county collection cost the district builds in. The district’s audited statements show $8,874,000 of bonds outstanding at September 30, 2025, in 2013 refunding bonds maturing through May 1, 2035 and 2018 refunding bonds maturing through May 1, 2037, per its FY2025 audited financial report.
Any owner can retire a home’s debt line early, and the district publishes the payoff for every home. Its table’s footnote reads: “Bond balance does not have to be paid off at closing.” Once paid, the home still owes the $233.85 operations and maintenance line every year.
Annual debt line | Payoff per home (good through October 31, 2026) | Homes |
|---|---|---|
$540 | $3,353.69 | 509 |
$511 | $4,209.31 | 438 |
$601 | $4,950.67 | 317 |
$635 | $3,943.69 | 269 |
$691 | $5,692.04 | 161 |
$730 | $4,533.69 | 95 |
$577 | $4,752.98 | 53 |
$759 | $6,252.18 | 32 |
$0 (already prepaid) | $0 | 46 |
Total | 1,920 |
On a $540 line, the payoff of $3,353.69 is about six years of payments; on a $511 line, $4,209.31 is a bit over eight. For a buyer planning to hold to 2035 or 2037 that comparison is worth running, and a seller credit equal to the payoff is sometimes a cleaner concession than a price cut of the same size.
The median total 2026 property tax on a Verona Walk home on Collier County’s preliminary roll is $3,981.23, but that median blends homesteaded homes, whose assessed values are capped, with non-homesteaded homes, which are not. About 57 percent of Verona Walk homes carry a homestead exemption on the 2026 roll, and the Save Our Homes cap resets at sale, as the Department of Revenue’s PT-112 guide explains. Your first full bill uses the new assessed value at the full millage, plus the CDD line, so budget from the price you pay and the millage, not from the seller’s bill. If the home becomes your permanent residence, file for your own homestead exemption.
Check a Verona Walk home’s flood position house by house. On FEMA’s 2024 map about 70 percent of homes are in Zone AH and 30 percent in Zone AE, but FEMA has amended whole phases and 121 more structures, 120 of them to Zone X. The letter, the elevation certificate and the roof age decide the insurance quote.
Data updated: September 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer and LOMC records, retrieved 23 Sep 2026; FEMA CRS list effective April 1, 2026; Florida Statutes; Citizens).
Flood zone, FEMA map effective February 8, 2024 | Homes | Share | What the zone means |
|---|---|---|---|
AH | 1,339 | 69.7% | High-risk area of shallow flooding, usually from rainfall ponding, with a base flood elevation |
AE | 576 | 30.0% | High-risk area with a base flood elevation; here, mostly the combined riverine and coastal study in the south |
X (shaded) | 5 | 0.3% | Moderate risk, outside the high-risk area |
VE, Coastal A or floodway | 0 | 0% | None inside Verona Walk |
The split is geographic. Phases 1, 2 and 3 and the townhome plats are almost entirely AH; the Phase 4 plats and their replats are almost entirely AE. FEMA’s base flood elevation lines crossing Verona Walk carry values of 8.0 to 9.5 feet NAVD88. These are map zones, and they are only half of the story.
FEMA’s LOMA layer lists 204 completed determinations naming Veronawalk: one in 2010, 77 in 2012, three in 2013, two in 2014 and 121 in 2024. The builder-era cases include multi-lot removals covering whole phases, and FEMA’s revalidation letter, Case 18-04-0009V, effective February 9, 2024, lists every one of the 83 pre-2024 Verona Walk cases as still valid on the new map. Between April and November 2024, FEMA then issued 121 single-structure letters for Verona Walk homes, 120 of them placing the house in Zone X (shaded). On those 121 homes FEMA recorded lowest adjacent grades of 9.2 to 12.3 feet NAVD88, above the mapped base flood elevations.
We do not quote premiums, because no public record prices a policy for a specific Verona Walk home. A 30-day waiting period applies to new National Flood Insurance Program coverage unless it is bought in connection with a loan, so a cash buyer who wants a policy should apply early.
Unincorporated Collier County holds Class 5 in FEMA’s Community Rating System, which gives eligible flood insurance policies in the Special Flood Hazard Area a 25 percent discount, per the FEMA list effective April 1, 2026. Verona Walk is in unincorporated Collier County, so its policies in the high-risk zone qualify.
Florida Statutes section 627.7011 says an insurer may not refuse a homeowner’s policy on a roof under 15 years old solely because of its age, and for an older roof must allow an inspection showing five or more years of useful life. Citizens requires a four-point inspection on homes more than 20 years old and documentation of remaining life on shingle roofs over 25 years and tile or metal roofs over 50, per its inspections page. A wind mitigation inspection documents roof attachment, roof-to-wall connections and opening protection that may qualify for premium discounts. Permanent hurricane shutters need Architectural Control Committee approval, so file the application before you add them.
Every Verona Walk home was permitted under a statewide Florida Building Code edition, from the 2001 code, effective March 1, 2002, through the 2010 code, effective March 15, 2012, per the Florida Building Commission’s effective-dates table. Which edition applies depends on the home’s permit date, which is on the county’s permit record for the address, and that record also shows whether and when the roof was replaced.
All of Verona Walk is in Collier County Evacuation Zone D, and effectively none of it lies in the Coastal High Hazard Area. The National Hurricane Center’s storm surge risk maps model a near-worst-case, high-tide hurricane. In that model a Category 1 storm produces no mapped surge at Verona Walk, a Category 2 storm floods the southern Phase 4 plats by more than 3 feet above ground, and a Category 3 or stronger storm floods the whole community. These are planning scenarios, not a forecast or a history. After Hurricane Ian the district’s field inspector reported that the stormwater system “worked as designed,” which is a statement about the lakes, not about any house.
The Verona Walk rules that decide a purchase are in the recorded Declaration and the association’s forms: association approval with an exterior inspection, leases of at least four months, household pets in reasonable numbers, boats, trucks and trailers kept in garages, golf carts only inside the gates, and Architectural Control Committee approval for exterior changes.
Data updated: September 2026 (VeronaWalk Declaration and recorded amendments; association forms modified July 30, 2025).
The association’s Rules and Regulations and architectural guidelines are not public; they are provided to buyers during the resale approval, so read them before you close.
Every Verona Walk sale needs the association’s approval before closing: a $100 purchase application at least 30 days before closing, an exterior inspection, and an approval certificate within 10 business days under Declaration Section 19.3. Adding another adult resident later uses the association’s additional resident application, which carries a $50 fee.
Verona Walk’s recorded Declaration requires every lease to be in writing and for a term of not less than four months, and a copy must reach the association before the tenant moves in. We found no cap on the number of leases per year in the Declaration or its recorded amendments. The association’s current lease application adds a $100 fee and asks for submission at least 30 days before move-in; its Rules and Regulations are not public, so confirm any further leasing rule with the association before you buy to rent. The four-month minimum is in Article XIX, Section 19.2 of the Declaration.
Section 8.2(D) of the Declaration allows dogs, cats and other household pets, not for commercial purposes and not “in numbers deemed unreasonable by the Board.” Pets must be leashed in the common areas and owners must clean up after them. The Declaration sets no numeric limit and no weight limit.
Under Section 8.2 of the Declaration, as amended by the members in 2008, commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, trailers, boats and motorcycles must be kept in a garage, and no vehicle may be parked overnight on a street or swale. Golf carts are allowed inside the community only: Section 8.2(W), as amended in 2008, requires them to be garaged, provides that “No golf cart shall be driven outside the entrance area or boundaries of VeronaWalk,” and lets the association require proof of liability insurance. A buyer with a boat should plan on off-site storage or a garage that fits it.
Exterior changes need the approval of the association’s Architectural Control Committee. The Declaration bars above-ground pools and requires committee consent for exterior antennas, satellite dishes and permanent hurricane shutters. The recorded amendment on roof cleaning and house painting, Official Records Book 5140, Page 2683, moved exterior wall cleaning and painting and roof cleaning of zero-lot-line, attached and townhouse homes to the owners, so on a villa or townhome those are your costs.
Verona Walk is not a 55-plus community. Its recorded Declaration of Covenants contains no age restriction, and the association describes the community as open to all ages. You may see it listed on senior-living directories; those listings are not based on the governing documents. The association’s own 2024 request for restaurant proposals describes Verona Walk as “non-age restricted” and “family-oriented.”
Section 8.2(Q) of the Declaration makes the lakes “primarily aesthetic amenities,” with fishing, boating and swimming subject to the board’s rules. Whether fishing or kayaking is allowed today is set by the board’s rules, which are not public. The association says about 90 percent of homes sit on its inland waterways, so a lake view is common here, and the premium is between kinds of lake view rather than water versus no water.
We find the right Verona Walk home by matching your budget and priorities to a product and lot class first, then watching a market of about 97 sales a year closely enough to move the day the right house lists. The search covers home type, lake exposure, roof age, the FEMA record and the district payoff before a single showing is booked.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, retrieved 24 Sep 2026; Collier County 2026 preliminary roll, retrieved 24 Sep 2026).
A price filter on a portal returns a mix of two-story townhomes, paired villas and detached homes that have almost nothing in common except the gate. We start the other way round. Tell us whether you want one story, how much exterior upkeep you will take on, whether you need a garage that fits a cart or a boat, and how much the flood record matters to you, and we will name the lot classes that fit before we name a house.
With 97 closings in the last twelve months and attached supply at 1.5 months, the Verona Walk search is a daily watch. We track new listings, price changes and relists, and we tell you when a home that fits your product and lot class reaches the market, including the history of any home that has been listed before. About 22 percent of Verona Walk’s housing units were held for seasonal use on Census Day 2020, so many sellers are out of town, and knowing who is likely to list before season is part of the work.
Verona Walk’s main gate on VeronaWalk Boulevard is staffed 24 hours a day, per the association, and private showings run through the association’s online visitor registration, so we register you ahead. Open houses are allowed on Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. only, and guests “must give the address of the Open House, or they will be denied access.” On every tour we check four things a listing does not tell you: the lake exposure and what the lot backs to, the roof’s permit year, the window and door protection, and whether the house holds a FEMA letter and an elevation certificate.
The right way to watch a community producing about 97 sales a year is a saved search with alerts, tuned to the product type, lot class and features that matter to you. Set one up through our site and it will notify you when a matching Verona Walk home is listed. If you would rather we tune it, call Marc Comisar at (239) 287-5873 and describe what you want, or start from our buyer resources for Naples.
We negotiate a Verona Walk purchase on the record: a 96.31 percent median sale to list ratio, 12 of 97 homes sold at or above list, 4.2 months of detached supply against 1.5 attached, roofs on homes built from 2004 onward, a district payoff that can be credited, and an association calendar that has to be written into the contract from the start.
Data updated: September 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, retrieved 24 Sep 2026; Verona Walk CDD bond table good through October 31, 2026).
A 96.31 percent median sale to list ratio does not mean every seller will take four percent off. It means most Verona Walk homes were listed close to what the market would pay, and that the gap is widest where the list price was set against hope rather than against sales. We price your offer against the closed sales of the same product and lot class and the home’s own listing history, including any terminated and relisted runs. A detached home priced ahead of its class in a 4.2-month market is where room exists; a well-priced villa in a 1.5-month market is one you may need to move on quickly.
On a Verona Walk home, the roof, the window and door protection, the air conditioning and the water heater all show up in the insurance quote and the inspection. A wind mitigation form, a four-point report and a flood quote obtained during the inspection period turn condition into numbers, and numbers are what move a seller.
The district publishes a payoff for every home, from $3,353.69 on the $540 debt class to $6,252.18 on the $759 Estate class. The balance does not have to be paid at closing, so it normally stays with the home. Asking the seller to credit the payoff, or to prepay it, removes a recurring line you would otherwise carry until 2035 or 2037, and some sellers find that easier to give than the same dollars off the price.
A Verona Walk contract has two outside clocks: the association’s purchase application at least 30 days before closing, with an exterior inspection that the seller must clear, and the approval certificate within 10 business days. Add the estoppel, the insurance binder and, if you need it, flood coverage. We write the inspection period and closing date around those clocks so none of them becomes the seller’s leverage.
Your deposit is protected by the contract’s contingencies and deadlines, and only if you act inside them. We diary every deadline, deliver every notice in writing and on time, and make sure that what you need to know before you are committed, the estoppel figures, the district payoff, the FEMA record, the inspection results and the insurance quote, arrives before the date on which your deposit goes hard.
A Verona Walk buyer pays ordinary Florida closing costs plus community items: the resale capital contribution, one quarter of the annual assessment for the home type, and the $100 purchase application. In Collier County the buyer customarily chooses the closing agent and pays the owner’s title policy, and the CDD balance does not have to be paid at closing.
Data updated: September 2026 (Florida Statutes, current text; VeronaWalk association notices; Verona Walk CDD bond table good through October 31, 2026).
In most Florida counties, including Lee County, the seller customarily chooses the closing agent and pays the owner’s title policy. In Collier County the custom flips and the buyer customarily chooses and pays. The premium itself is promulgated by the state, so it is the same at every title company, but nothing in the statutes fixes who pays it: the contract controls, and we raise it at the offer stage.
Two Florida taxes attach to a financed purchase. Documentary stamp tax on the promissory note runs at $0.35 per $100 of the note amount under Florida Statutes 201.08, and the non-recurring intangible tax on a new mortgage runs at 2 mills under Florida Statutes 199.133. Neither applies to a cash purchase. Deed recording is charged separately by the Collier County Clerk.
The resale capital contribution and the purchase application appear as buyer charges. The contribution has no published dollar figure because it depends on the unpublished assessment; the estoppel certificate states the assessment and so lets the closing agent compute it. A current owner buying another Verona Walk home as a personal residence pays the contribution at closing and has it refunded if the first home sells within 180 days.
Property taxes are prorated against the seller’s current bill, which is not a forecast of your future bill after the reset. The CDD line is part of the same November tax bill and is prorated with it. Association assessments are prorated on the same principle. If the seller is a foreign person, federal withholding under FIRPTA may apply to the sale, and the closing agent handles it; ask early.
Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed is $0.70 per $100 of consideration under Florida Statutes 201.02, and a Florida seller customarily pays it on a residential resale. The seller also customarily pays for the estoppel certificate. Beyond that, costs are customary rather than statutory and negotiable in every contract. If you are also selling, our page on selling a home in Verona Walk runs the seller side in full.
The National Association of REALTORS practice changes took effect on August 17, 2024. An agent who participates in a multiple listing service must have a written buyer agreement with you before touring a home, the agreement must state the agent’s compensation in a way you can objectively verify, and offers of compensation are no longer permitted on the MLS.
The agreement must be signed before the tour, in person or by live virtual tour. It must state the amount or rate of compensation so that it is objectively ascertainable, it must prohibit the agent from receiving more than that from any source, and it must carry a conspicuous statement that broker fees and commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.
You do not need a written agreement to talk to an agent about their services, to interview several agents, to ask about a community or to visit an open house and speak to the host. You also do not need one to ask us how the Verona Walk capital contribution works or to have us check the FEMA record for an address. The line is the tour.
Compensation to a buyer’s broker can still be negotiated, and a seller can still cover it or offer concessions, but that now happens in the transaction rather than in an MLS field, and the amount your agent may receive is capped by your agreement. You agree what your agent is paid first; then we negotiate separately whether and how much a seller will cover.
In Verona Walk, representation earns its keep in the diligence: an unpublished assessment, a capital contribution that depends on it, a district line and payoff that vary by lot class, a flood answer that changes house by house, an association calendar on the closing path and a tax reset. Read any buyer agreement against that list, and read more about our team and our credentials before you decide.
Every Verona Walk address we checked is zoned for Lely Elementary, Manatee Middle and Lely High. Lely Elementary and Manatee Middle earned an A for 2025-26 and Lely High a B. Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard is about 2 miles and 5 minutes from the Town Center, and the Marco Island bridge about 18 minutes.

We sent one home address from every interior street in Verona Walk, 43 addresses, to Collier County Public Schools’ own zoning lookup for both 2025-26 and 2026-27, and all 43 returned the same three schools in both years.

Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard, with a 24-hour emergency room, is about 2 miles, roughly 5 minutes without traffic, from the Town Center.

These are free-flow figures on the OpenStreetMap road network; from January to April, traffic on US 41, Collier Boulevard and I-75 adds time. There is no beach, marina or golf course inside the gates. The nearest golf is across Collier Boulevard at Lely Resort, about 0.9 to 1.2 miles in a straight line from the Town Center. For the wider city, see our Naples real estate guide.
The Town Center sits on an 8.9-acre parcel owned by the homeowners association, and membership is automatic with the deed under Declaration Section 3.2. The association lists offices, game rooms, a grand ballroom, function rooms and a library behind a landmark clock tower, and its 2024 request for proposals adds a fitness center, a travel agency, a hair salon, an ice cream and coffee shop, a gas station, a federally contracted post office, a resort-style pool, a lap pool and a full-service restaurant and bar. Verona Walk has six pickleball courts, per the resident Pickleball Club; the builder’s 2012 feature list counted eight lighted tennis courts, and the association has not published a current count. The board may charge reasonable user fees for particular facilities under Section 8.2.
Verona Walk is the right purchase for a buyer who wants a gated, all-ages lakes community with a Town Center included in the deed, the most courts among its peers and an entry price that starts with attached homes. It is the wrong purchase for a buyer who wants no CDD, a golf course at home, a boat in the driveway or a published fee.

Reach him at (239) 287-5873.
A Verona Walk specialist matters because the facts that decide a purchase here, the footprint split between attached and detached, the district line and payoff by lot class, the unpublished assessment behind the capital contribution, the association’s 30-day calendar and the house-by-house FEMA record, live in records a general Naples search never surfaces. Missing one changes what you pay.

These are the questions buyers ask most about purchasing in Verona Walk, East Naples, Collier County, Florida 34114, answered from the recorded Declaration, the association’s forms, the district’s budgets and bond table, Collier County’s records, the Southwest Florida MLS and FEMA, each in a single paragraph. Where the public record is silent, the answer says so and names who holds it.
Verona Walk has 1,920 homes, about 944 attached villas and townhomes and about 976 detached homes by Collier County’s 2025 building footprints, all fee simple, recorded in 19 plats between 2004 and 2013. There are no condominiums, one homeowners association and one Town Center.
It depends first on the home type. Over the twelve months to September 24, 2026, attached Verona Walk homes sold at a median of $440,000 and detached homes at $705,000, and the community median was $494,000, per the Southwest Florida MLS. Sales ranged from $305,000 to $1,030,000.
On September 24, 2026, 21 Verona Walk homes were active on the Southwest Florida MLS, 7 attached and 14 detached, with 9 more pending. The active median list price was $699,900, with a range of $425,000 to $1,249,999.
It depends on the home type. On September 24, 2026 Verona Walk had about 2.6 months of supply overall, 1.5 months for attached homes and 4.2 months for detached homes. Attached buyers face a thin field; detached buyers have more choice and more room to negotiate.
Verona Walk homes sold at a median of 96.31 percent of list price in the twelve months to September 24, 2026, and 12 of the 97 sold at or above list: 9 attached and 3 detached. The room is widest on detached homes priced ahead of their lot class.
The median Verona Walk sale spent 53 days on market in the twelve months to September 24, 2026, 57 for attached homes and 42.5 for detached homes, down from 75 days a year earlier, per the Southwest Florida MLS.
No. Verona Walk’s recorded Declaration, Official Records Book 3506, Page 903, contains no age restriction, and the association describes the community as open to all ages. Listings on senior-living directories are not based on the governing documents.
Yes. The main entrance on VeronaWalk Boulevard is a gated entry that the association says is staffed 24 hours a day; county address records also show a second gate at the south end of the community. How the south gate operates is not published. Owners register visitors online.
No. The Town Center belongs to the homeowners association, and membership in the association is automatic with the deed under Declaration Section 3.2. There is no club corporation, no initiation fee and no equity membership, though the board may charge reasonable user fees for particular facilities.
The VeronaWalk Homeowners Association does not publish its assessment. Under the recorded Declaration, as amended in 2004, each home pays a base component plus a component set by home type, billed quarterly in advance. The current amount for a specific home appears in the association’s annual budget and on the estoppel certificate issued for every resale.
Yes. Every home pays the Verona Walk Community Development District $744.85 to $992.85 a year by phase and lot class under the fiscal 2026/27 budget, or $233.85 if its debt has been prepaid. It is collected on the November property tax bill.
No. The district’s bond balance table states: “Bond balance does not have to be paid off at closing.” The debt line stays with the home unless someone prepays. Payoffs, good through October 31, 2026, run from $3,353.69 to $6,252.18, and the bonds mature through May 1, 2035 and May 1, 2037.
Yes. Buyers pay a one-time, non-refundable resale capital contribution at closing equal to one quarter of the annual assessment for the home type purchased, deposited to the association’s reserves, effective June 1, 2024. No dollar figure is published because it depends on the unpublished assessment.
Yes. The association’s purchase application carries a $100 non-refundable fee, waived for a current owner moving within Verona Walk, and asks for submission at least 30 days before closing. Adding another adult resident later carries a $50 application fee.
The association inspects the home’s exterior before it approves, and under Declaration Section 19.3 it issues its approval certificate within 10 business days. Under Section 19.4 it may disapprove while the seller is delinquent or in violation. Build at least 30 days into the contract.
Verona Walk parcels are taxed at 10.4020 mills on Collier County’s 2026 preliminary roll, and the median total 2026 tax was $3,981.23. That median blends homesteaded and non-homesteaded homes, and the Save Our Homes cap resets at sale, so budget from your price and the millage, plus the CDD line.
On FEMA’s February 8, 2024 map about 70 percent of Verona Walk homes are in Zone AH and about 30 percent in Zone AE. FEMA also issued 121 structure-specific amendments here in 2024, 120 of them placing the house in Zone X (shaded), and revalidated the builder-era letters. Check the specific house on the FEMA Map Service Center.
If no Letter of Map Amendment covers the home and you use a federally backed mortgage, yes. If the home has a letter, the federal requirement does not apply, but the lender has the option to continue it. Unincorporated Collier County’s Class 5 rating gives eligible policies in the high-risk zone a 25 percent discount.
All of Verona Walk is in Collier County Evacuation Zone D. In the National Hurricane Center’s near-worst-case storm surge model, a Category 1 storm produces no mapped surge there, a Category 2 floods the southern Phase 4 plats and a Category 3 or stronger floods the whole community. These are planning scenarios.
Verona Walk’s plats were recorded from 2004 to 2013, and sales began in 2003. A home completed in 2005 turned 20 in 2025, the age at which Citizens requires a four-point inspection, and a roof original to a home built before about 2011 is now past 15 years. Check the roof’s permit year.
No. None of the 19 Verona Walk plats contains a condominium parcel, and every home is coded as a single-family parcel on Collier County’s 2026 roll. A villa owner owns the lot under the home and answers to the homeowners association, so Florida’s condominium milestone inspection rules do not apply.
The owner. A 2015 recorded amendment, Official Records Book 5140, Page 2683, moved exterior wall cleaning and painting and roof cleaning of zero-lot-line, attached and townhouse homes from the association to the owners. Ask when the building was last painted and the roof last cleaned.
Yes. The recorded Declaration requires every lease to be in writing and for at least four months, and we found no cap on the number of leases per year. The association’s lease application adds a $100 fee and asks for submission at least 30 days before move-in. Confirm any further rule in the Rules and Regulations.
The Declaration allows dogs, cats and other household pets, not for commercial purposes and not in numbers the board deems unreasonable, leashed in the common areas. It sets no numeric or weight limit. Any further pet rule would be in the Rules and Regulations provided during the resale approval.
Only in a garage. Under the Declaration as amended in 2008, commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, trailers, boats and motorcycles must be kept in a garage, and no vehicle may be parked overnight on a street or swale. Golf carts are allowed inside the community only, garaged and insured.
No. Collier County’s 2026 roll shows no golf-course parcel in any of Verona Walk’s 19 plats. The nearest courses are across Collier Boulevard at Lely Resort, about 0.9 to 1.2 miles in a straight line from the Town Center.
Verona Walk has six pickleball courts: the original four and two lighted courts near the playground, per the resident Pickleball Club. The builder’s 2012 feature list counted eight lighted tennis courts; the association has not published a current count.
Every Verona Walk address we checked is zoned for Lely Elementary (graded A for 2025-26), Manatee Middle (A) and Lely High (B for 2025-26 after an A the year before). All 43 addresses sampled returned the same three schools for 2025-26 and 2026-27.
From the Town Center without traffic, the Marco Island bridge is about 18 minutes, the Naples Pier about 23 minutes and Vanderbilt Beach about 33 minutes. There is no beach, marina or Gulf access inside the gates.
Choose Verona Walk for more courts, services inside the gates, East Naples and a lower entry price, if a CDD line until 2037 is acceptable. Choose Island Walk for no CDD, a published fee, cable and internet in the dues and all-A zoned schools in North Naples.
Yes, if you tour with an agent who participates in an MLS. Since August 17, 2024 the agreement must be signed before the tour and state the agent’s compensation in an objectively ascertainable way. You do not need one to talk to an agent or visit an open house.
Yes. Broker fees and commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable, and since August 17, 2024 offers of compensation cannot be advertised on the MLS. You agree what your agent is paid first; then we negotiate separately whether a seller will cover any of it.
In Collier County the buyer customarily chooses the closing agent and pays the owner’s title policy, the reverse of the Lee County custom. The premium is promulgated by the state, so it is the same at every title company, but the contract controls who pays it.
Start with how we represent buyers in Naples, then call Marc Comisar at (239) 287-5873 or Jesse McGreevy at (239) 898-6072. In a market where attached supply is 1.5 months, being financed and holding the district figure before the right home lists is worth more than any tactic applied afterward.
These questions come from buyers who also have a home to sell, whether elsewhere in Florida, out of state or inside Verona Walk. Each answer is a single paragraph, and our Verona Walk seller page covers the selling side in full.
It depends on your financing and your tolerance for carrying two homes. On the attached side, with 1.5 months of supply, the right Verona Walk home may appear before your sale closes, so many buyers arrange financing that lets them buy first. We model both sequences with you before you list.
Yes. A current owner buying another Verona Walk home as a personal residence gets a one-time exemption from the capital contribution: it is paid at closing and refunded if the first home sells within 180 days, and the purchase application fee is waived. The exemption does not apply to a purchase for rental use.
If you qualify. Florida’s portability rule lets a homestead owner who sells and establishes a new Florida homestead transfer some or all of the accumulated Save Our Homes benefit, within the time limits in the Department of Revenue’s PT-112 guide, by filing with the new homestead application.
It depends on your product and lot class. Attached homes sold at a median of $440,000 and detached homes at $705,000 over the twelve months to September 24, 2026. Request a Verona Walk home valuation for your specific home.
No. The district’s table states that the “Bond balance does not have to be paid off at closing,” so the debt line normally stays with the home. A seller may choose to prepay it or credit you the payoff, which we raise in the negotiation.
The seller customarily pays for the association’s estoppel certificate, which the association processes through HomeWiseDocs. Florida Statutes 720.30851 sets what it must state. Verona Walk has one association, so one estoppel covers the sale, and it is the document that states the home’s current assessment.
Yes, if the seller accepts it. A sale contingency with clear deadlines protects your deposit if you act inside them. On a detached home, with 4.2 months of supply, a seller is more likely to accept one than on an attached home at 1.5 months.
It depends on how you are financing and when you want to establish Florida residency. Homestead status is fixed on January 1 each year, so the calendar matters. We sequence both sides with you and your lender before you list.
