Lely Golf Estates

By Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, McGreevy and Comisar, Domain Realty Group. Updated November 2026.

Lely Golf Estates, the neighborhood buyers search for as Lely Golf Estates Naples, is easy to describe on the public record. Lely Golf Estates is 388 single-family homes on six recorded Collier County plats in East Naples, Florida 34113: Lely Golf Estates Unit 1, Unit 2, the Forest Hill Section, St Andrews East, St Andrews West and the Tract Map, laid out around Hibiscus Golf Club in unincorporated Collier County, with county roll years from 1969 to 2025. If you are comparing agents, our guide to the best real estate agents in Naples sets local agents side by side on the public record. For the neighborhood itself, Collier County shows 65 qualified recorded sales of Lely Golf Estates homes in the 60 months through mid-October 2026, from $350,000 to $870,000, at a $545,000 median, and 6 in the last 12 months, from $375,000 to $680,000; with so few recent sales, a single closing moves those figures.

McGreevy and Comisar are the team Lely Golf Estates sellers call first: Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008 and the #1 Team in Southwest Florida since 2012, with over $900 million in personal sales between Jesse and Marc, and the Domain Realty Group team is the #5 real estate team in Florida (RealTrends 2026). This page walks through the six plats and their streets, Hibiscus Golf Club and the planned Lantern Club, the homes and the rebuilding on the county roll, the civic association, the Beautification MSTU and the no-CDD answer, the deed-restriction question, recorded sales, taxes, the flood map and Evacuation Zone C, insurance, schools, drives and nearby communities.

Lely Golf Estates sits in East Naples between US 41 East (Tamiami Trail East) and Rattlesnake Hammock Road, with Saint Andrews Boulevard as its US 41 entrance and Hibiscus Golf Club on the south side of Rattlesnake Hammock Road; it is in unincorporated Collier County, its mailing city is Naples and its ZIP code is 34113. Hibiscus Golf Club, the course the homes surround, sold in March 2026 to a buyer that plans a private club, and the residential lots were not part of the sale. This is Lely Golf Estates, not Lely Resort or Lely Country Club, and every figure on this page belongs to the six Lely Golf Estates plats.

What does a seller in Lely Golf Estates get from us?

A seller in Lely Golf Estates gets a price built from the county record for the home's county heated area, roll year, street, plat and condition, not from a neighborhood average. The 60-month window leads: 65 qualified sales, $350,000 to $870,000, at a $545,000 median. In the last 12 months the county file holds 6 qualified sales, from $375,000 to $680,000, too few for a median. These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast.

In Collier County the buyer customarily pays the owner's title policy, and the contract controls. We gather the documents a Lely Golf Estates buyer will ask for before the home is listed: the elevation certificate if one exists, and the permit history for any rebuild or major work. Our Naples home valuation page and our guide to selling a home in Naples set out the steps.

What does a buyer in Lely Golf Estates get from us?

A buyer in Lely Golf Estates gets the questions that matter before the offer. Which of the six plats does the legal description name? What do the home's own flood determination and elevation certificate say? Which county roll year does it carry, and what permit history sits behind it? What does the survey show about whether the lot backs onto the course? Does the title commitment show any recorded restriction on the lot?

We point each answer at the document that governs it. No source gives Lely Golf Estates homeowners any right to join the Lantern Club, any discount or any obligation to it, so the title commitment is where a buyer confirms whether any easement or covenant ties a lot to the golf land. The association documents, if any apply to the lot, come from the seller and the title company.

Why do county recorded sales matter more than listing labels here?

County recorded sales matter more than listing labels because listing services file homes and buildings from neighboring plats under the Lely Golf Estates name, and the county sales file counts only the six Lely Golf Estates plats. That file holds 6 qualified sales in the last 12 months, 19 in the last 24 months, 28 in the last 36 months and 65 in the last 60 months.

Each of those is a qualified recorded sale over $100,000 on one of the 388 homes. This market section is built from Collier County recorded sales only; no MLS data was pulled.

Why does the county's heated area need care when pricing a Lely Golf Estates home?

The county's heated area needs care because it is not the figure a listing prints. The Collier County roll lists Lely Golf Estates homes at 1,100 to 4,102 heated square feet, from 1,100 to 2,971 in Unit 1 to 1,166 to 4,102 in Unit 2; listing descriptions measure living area by their own rules, so compare the county figure with the survey, the permit set and the listing.

The 24-month and 60-month medians are both $274 per county heated square foot, on 19 and 65 sales. Price per square foot here uses the county's heated area, which can differ from a listing's living area; read it as a county measure.

Why does the mix of 1970s homes and rebuilds change how to read prices?

The mix matters because Lely Golf Estates' roll years span 1969 to 2025 on one set of streets. Of the 388 homes, 103 carry a roll year from 1969 to 1979, 99 a year from 1980 to 1999, 87 a year from 2000 to 2009 and 99 a year of 2010 or later, including 81 from 2015 to 2025; the roll year is the year the county last recorded the structure, so a recent year on a 1970s lot is a sign of rebuilding or major work, not a closing date.

The rebuild years appear on every residential plat, so new homes sit beside 1970s homes on the same streets. A price for a 1970s home and a price for a home with a 2019 roll year on the same street answer different questions, which is why we price each Lely Golf Estates home against its own roll year, size and condition.

Why does the Hibiscus Golf Club change matter to a buyer or seller?

The Hibiscus Golf Club change matters because the homes surround the course and its ownership changed in March 2026. Gulfshore Business reported a $28 million sale to The Lantern Club LLC, with closing reported March 6, 2026, and the Collier County sales file shows a priced deed dated March 4, 2026 at $12,400,000 covering three golf parcels; the two figures differ, and this guide does not reconcile them.

No source read for this guide gives Lely Golf Estates homeowners any right to join the Lantern Club, any discount or any obligation to it, and the sale coverage says the residential lots were not part of the sale. This guide makes no claim about what the change does to the value of any home.

Why does the flood map need a home-by-home check in Lely Golf Estates?

The flood map needs a home-by-home check because a map zone is not a home's elevation. Collier County's republished copy of the effective FEMA flood map places 339 of the 360 Lely Golf Estates address points tested in Zone AE, a 1 percent annual chance flood zone, and the other 21 in shaded Zone X, on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024; confirm the zone for a specific home on the current FIRM and its elevation certificate.

A lender making a federally backed mortgage on a home in Zone AE generally requires flood insurance; the flood determination for the specific home settles it. All 360 Lely Golf Estates address points fall in hurricane Evacuation Zone C on the county's map; evacuation zones are surge-based and separate from FEMA flood zones.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County roll records, read November 8, 2026).

We read the county's roll records for all six Lely Golf Estates plats, and the decade counts in this table come from them.

When was Lely Golf Estates built?

Lely Golf Estates was built over decades, from 1969 on the county roll. Hibiscus Golf Club opened in 1969, the same year as the oldest roll year in Unit 1, and the plats filled in plat by plat through the 1970s. The recorded plat shows its own recording date, and the title company can pull it for a specific lot.

Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Who developed Lely Golf Estates?

Lely Presbyterian Church's own history says its Saint Andrews Boulevard land was donated by Lely Estates, Inc., which it describes as the original developer, and dates the church's groundbreaking to April 1973 and its dedication to May 12, 1974.

Why are the streets named after famous golf courses?

The streets around Hibiscus Golf Club carry the names of famous courses: Augusta, Doral, Pebble Beach, Pinehurst and St. Andrews, as the Gulfshore Business sale coverage notes. This guide gives no naming story beyond that.

Which Lely Golf Estates plat was built first?

By earliest roll year, Unit 1 comes first at 1969, then Unit 2 at 1971, the Forest Hill Section at 1973, St Andrews West at 1974 and St Andrews East at 1977. The single Tract Map home carries a 2006 roll year. The latest roll years are Unit 1 2023, Unit 2 2024, the Forest Hill Section 2025, St Andrews East 2025 and St Andrews West 2024.

How many Lely Golf Estates homes have been rebuilt since 2015?

On the county roll, 81 of the 388 Lely Golf Estates homes, 21 percent, carry a roll year from 2015 to 2025. By plat, that is 15 in Unit 1, 19 in Unit 2, 21 in the Forest Hill Section, 13 in St Andrews East, 13 in St Andrews West and 0 on the Tract Map. Of the 388 homes, 103 carry a roll year from 1969 to 1979, 99 a year from 1980 to 1999, 87 a year from 2000 to 2009 and 99 a year of 2010 or later, including 81 from 2015 to 2025; the roll year is the year the county last recorded the structure, so a recent year on a 1970s lot is a sign of rebuilding or major work, not a closing date.

The plats are built out, so a new home replaces an older one.

Why did so many homes get a 2018 roll year?

The county roll shows 36 Lely Golf Estates homes with a 2018 roll year and 15 with a 2019 roll year, more than any other year.

The roll year shows the year the county recorded the structure, so the permit history for a specific home is the document that explains it.

Has Lely Golf Estates seen new building since Hurricane Ian?

The county roll shows homes with roll years from 2022 on: 3 in 2022, 2 in 2023, 4 in 2024 and 4 in 2025. The roll year is the year the county last recorded the structure, and the roll does not give a cause for any of them.

Roll years run from 1977 to 2025 and county heated areas from 1,436 to 3,984 square feet. Of the 63, 13 carry a roll year from 2015 to 2025.

What are the homes like in St Andrews West?

St Andrews West has 64 homes on three streets: Saint Andrews Boulevard with 27, Pebble Beach Circle with 22 and Pine Valley Circle with 15. Roll years run from 1974 to 2024 and county heated areas from 1,258 to 3,733 square feet. Of the 64, 13 carry a roll year from 2015 to 2025.

Which streets cross more than one plat?

Three streets cross plat lines. Pebble Beach Boulevard runs through Unit 2 and the Forest Hill Section, Saint Andrews Boulevard runs through Unit 2, St Andrews West and St Andrews East, and Forest Hills Boulevard runs through the Forest Hill Section, St Andrews East and the Tract Map. The street is Saint Andrews Boulevard, while the plats are St Andrews East and St Andrews West, so a street name does not tell a buyer the plat; the legal description does.

Do Lely Golf Estates homes back onto the golf course?

Some lots back onto the course and many do not; the survey and the recorded plat show which. The county tables used for this guide do not record lot sizes or course frontage, so a buyer reads the survey for the specific lot.

Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Are Lely Golf Estates homes one story or two?

The county tables used for this guide do not record stories, bedrooms or bathrooms, so this guide gives none. The listing, the survey and the permit set show the story count and room count for a specific home, and the county heated area is the one size figure the roll gives.

What Is Happening With Hibiscus Golf Club and the Planned Lantern Club?

Lely Golf Estates surrounds Hibiscus Golf Club, an 18-hole course that was sold in March 2026 to a buyer that plans a private, invitation-only club called the Lantern Club; press coverage and the county sales file show different prices, the residential lots were not part of the sale, and no homeowner right or obligation to the club was found.

Data updated: November 2026 (Gulfshore Business report, the course architect's reprint and the Collier County sales file, read November 8, 2026).

We read the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets through October 2026 for what they record about the course and the entry landscaping.

Who bought Hibiscus Golf Club, and for how much?

Hibiscus Golf Club, the 18-hole course that opened in 1969 at 5375 Hibiscus Drive, was sold in March 2026: Gulfshore Business reported a $28 million sale of more than 160 acres to The Lantern Club LLC from Nassif Golf Ventures LLC, with closing reported March 6, 2026, and said the residential lots were not part of the sale. The Collier County sales file shows a priced deed dated March 4, 2026 at $12,400,000 covering three golf parcels. The two figures differ, and this guide does not reconcile them.

What is the Lantern Club?

As reported by the course architect's reprint of that story, the buyer plans a private, invitation-only, golf-only club called the Lantern Club, with an 18-hole course by Fry/Straka Global Golf Course Design and a clubhouse and six golf cottages by MHK Architecture of Naples; the reported initiation fee starts at $250,000 and anticipated annual dues are $20,000 to $25,000; public daily-fee play is reported to continue through spring 2027, and the reported opening target is late 2028 if permits are in place.

The course's own site, hibiscusgolf.com, describes a 2023 course renovation and public daily-fee play.

Do Lely Golf Estates homeowners get Lantern Club membership?

No source read for this guide gives Lely Golf Estates homeowners any right to join the Lantern Club, any discount or any obligation to it; the sale coverage says the residential lots were not part of the sale, so owning a home here does not by itself bring club membership, and a buyer confirms on the title commitment whether any recorded easement or covenant ties a lot to the golf land.

How long will Hibiscus Golf Club stay open to the public?

Public daily-fee play is reported to continue through spring 2027, per the course architect's reprint of the Gulfshore Business story. This guide gives no single closing date, because none was found. Hibiscus Golf Club has been a public daily-fee course for more than 50 years, per that reprint. For public play after spring 2027, Paradise Coast's public golf list names Lely Resort's courses as public-access options; this guide gives no distance or fee.

When is the Lantern Club expected to open?

The reported opening target is late 2028, if permits are in place. The buyer's team reported working with the county on permits, and no approved county permit, rezoning or hearing for the Lantern Club was found in the records read. Collier County decides the zoning and permits for the golf land, and county planning staff confirm the status of any application.

Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Does the county record match the reported Hibiscus sale price?

No. The reported price is $28 million for more than 160 acres, while the Collier County sales file shows a priced deed dated March 4, 2026 at $12,400,000 covering three golf parcels. The two figures differ, and this guide does not reconcile them. The recorded deed itself shows its parties, terms and parcel list.

Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Have Lely Golf Estates residents weighed in on the Lantern Club?

The Lely Civic Association hosted a town hall on the Lantern Club on September 15, 2026 at Lely Presbyterian Church, per the October 2026 MSTU packet. This guide gives no account of what was said there.

The committee records also show a link to the course at Doral Circle. A monument easement there, recorded November 5, 1999, was granted by Nassif Golf Ventures LLC, the former course owner, to the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU. In 2025 the course owner asked the MSTU to release it and the MSTU declined, per the November 2025 packet; in July 2026 the committee was awaiting a Lantern Club landscape design for that triangle, per the July 2026 packet.

Could the golf course be turned into housing?

The announced Lantern Club plan keeps the land in golf. Collier County's commission voted in 2025 to keep its 2017 golf-course conversion rules, which include a 100-foot buffer and community outreach, as Naples News Now reported; those rules address converting a course to other uses. For general context on closed courses, see Reed Smith on redeveloping closed golf courses; this guide applies no conclusion from it to Hibiscus Golf Club, and it makes no prediction.

Is Royal Palm Golf Club part of Lely Golf Estates?

No. Royal Palm Golf Club is described as a separate private, member-owned club nearby, per the PrivateIQ club profile and the Country Club Magazine profile. No homeowner right or obligation to Royal Palm Golf Club was found for Lely Golf Estates homes. Royal Palm Golf Estates is a separate neighborhood with its own page on this site.

Does Lely Golf Estates Have an HOA, a Civic Association or a CDD?

Lely Golf Estates has a resident civic association named in Collier County minutes, a county taxing unit called the Beautification MSTU and no community development district. No recorded dues figure or membership rule was found, so the title commitment for each lot is the document that shows what applies to it.

Data updated: November 2026 (Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets through October 2026; Collier County 2026 tax roll).

We read the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets and minutes from 2019 to October 2026, and the 2026 county tax roll for all 388 homes. Three different bodies get confused here: a resident organization, a county taxing unit and a special district. Each answer names which one it means and which document settles it for a specific lot.

Is there a Lely Golf Estates HOA?

Collier County's MSTU committee minutes name a resident organization, the Lely Civic Association, which some minutes also call the Lely Homeowners Association, and county staff point residents to a Lely Property Owners Association documents page; no state filing, dues figure or rule making membership mandatory was found in the records read, so a buyer asks the seller and the title company what applies to a specific lot.

People who search for the Lely Golf Estates HOA are usually asking one of three things: is there an association, does it charge dues, and can it enforce rules against a later owner. The records read answer the first question and leave the other two to the lot's own papers. A buyer asks for the association documents the seller holds, then checks them against the title commitment.

What is the Lely Civic Association?

The Lely Civic Association is a resident organization that appears by name in the MSTU committee's minutes and packets, and some minutes also call it the Lely Homeowners Association. It has hosted a town hall and has corresponded with the committee about signs; its legal status and dues are not shown in the records read.

After Hurricane Irma, the committee recorded that the MSTU took over street-sign repairs "due to the limited resources of the HOA" (January 2023 packet). By early 2025 the transfer of 62 signs on decorative poles and 14 on standard poles from the civic association to the MSTU was reported complete (May 2025 packet; October 2024 packet). The association also hosted a town hall on September 15, 2026 at Lely Presbyterian Church, per the October 2026 MSTU packet.

Are Lely Golf Estates association dues mandatory?

No dues figure and no rule requiring membership appears in any record read for this guide, and the 2026 county roll shows no association charge on the tax bill, only non-ad valorem charges of at most $270. What a specific lot owes an association, if anything, is set by a recorded declaration and shown on the title commitment.

An association's assessment is billed by the association, not by the county, so the tax roll cannot show it. The seller's association documents and the title commitment's exceptions list are where a recorded obligation would appear. Dues, membership status and the recorded declaration: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Is the MSTU the same thing as an HOA?

No. The Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU is a county taxing unit whose 2.0000 mills appear on the tax bill and whose spending is advised by a county committee of five resident seats. The civic association is a resident organization. One is a line on the county tax bill, the other is a separate group with its own documents.

The MSTU levies on 387 of the 388 homes, pays for medians, entries, street lights and signs on the public rights of way it maintains, and cannot spend money on private property. A buyer who sees "MSTU" on a tax bill is looking at a county charge, not at an association assessment.

Does Lely Golf Estates have a CDD?

No community development district appears on any Lely Golf Estates tax bill: the 2026 county roll shows non-ad valorem charges of at most $270 on the 388 homes, and the only Collier district with Lely in its name, the Lely Community Development District, serves Lely Resort, as its 2025 state audit filing shows.

A district that finances roads or drainage with bonds shows up on the county tax notice as its own non-ad valorem line. With a $270 ceiling on every Lely Golf Estates bill and no district named on any of them, there is no district bond debt to be assessed on a home here.

Is the Lely Community Development District part of Lely Golf Estates?

No. The Lely Community Development District was created January 10, 1991 and serves Lely Resort, the planned community east of Collier Boulevard. Its name is the reason the question comes up, but it does not levy on the six Lely Golf Estates plats.

The district's own 2025 audit filing, a state document, is the record we read to rule it out. A buyer who sees the district's name in a listing description or a search result is looking at a different community.

Does a Lely Golf Estates home come with golf club membership?

No source read for this guide gives Lely Golf Estates homeowners any right to join the Lantern Club, any discount or any obligation to it; the sale coverage says the residential lots were not part of the sale, so owning a home here does not by itself bring club membership, and a buyer confirms on the title commitment whether any recorded easement or covenant ties a lot to the golf land.

Hibiscus Golf Club is the course the homes surround, and the Lantern Club is the planned private club that the reported buyer describes. Neither is a homeowners' amenity on the record read.

Are there shared amenities like a pool or clubhouse in Lely Golf Estates?

No shared pool, clubhouse or other amenity facility for homeowners appears in the county records read for this guide. The clubhouse at Hibiscus Golf Club belongs to the golf club and its land, not to a homeowners' group.

What the records do show as shared are public-facing items the MSTU maintains: landscaped medians and entries, street lights, entry monuments, decorative signs, an irrigation pump station and four radar speed signs. A listing that mentions an amenity is a question for the seller, answered by a document, not a fact about the neighborhood.

What Is the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU, and What Does It Pay For?

Lely Golf Estates' Beautification MSTU is a Collier County taxing unit created by county ordinance that levies 2.0000 mills on 387 of the 388 homes; the single Tract Map home sits in millage area 7, whose 2026 rate file carries no MSTU line. It pays for medians, entries, street lights and signs.

Data updated: November 2026 (Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets through October 2026; Collier County 2026 tax roll).

We read the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets and minutes from 2019 to October 2026. The packets are the county's own working papers, with budgets, maintenance lists and project lists, which is why the answers here carry dates and stay close to what the packets say.

What is the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU?

The Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU, a Collier County taxing unit created by county ordinance, levies 2.0000 mills on 387 of the 388 homes; the single home on the Tract Map sits in millage area 7, whose 2026 rate file carries no MSTU line.

MSTU stands for municipal service taxing unit, a county tool for charging an area for services within its boundary. The county's program page says the advisory committee for this MSTU was created in July 1986. The county publishes a boundary map for the district.

What does the MSTU maintain?

The MSTU pays for the landscaping, irrigation and mulch in the medians and entries of Saint Andrews Boulevard and its US 41 entry, Forest Hills Boulevard, Valley Stream Circle, Pebble Beach Boulevard, the Thorncrest, Briarcliff and Heather Grove cul-de-sacs, Baltusrol Drive, Doral Circle and the Rattlesnake Hammock Road frontage, plus street lights, entry monuments and decorative signs, an irrigation pump station on Warren Street, four radar speed signs and holiday lighting; committee records say it cannot spend money on private property.

The list matters to a buyer because it separates what the county maintains in the public medians from what an owner maintains on the lot. A home's own landscaping, fence, irrigation and driveway stay with the owner.

How much does the MSTU levy?

The MSTU levies 2.0000 mills on the taxable value of 387 of the 388 homes: 323 homes in millage area 161 and 64 in millage area 163. The Tract Map home in millage area 7 carries no MSTU line, and its 2026 total is 10.3696 mills.

The rate has held for years. The Florida Department of Revenue's 2021 Collier taxing authority table lists the same 2.0000 mills, and the January 2019 committee minutes record 2.0000 mills for that fiscal year. The MSTU is inside the millage, so it is not a separate bill.

What is the MSTU's budget?

For FY2026, which began October 1, 2025, the September 2026 committee packet shows millage plus interest revenue of $457,200 and a carry forward of $755,459, for a revenue total of $1,212,659. The packet also holds a $150,000 reserve for catastrophic events and keeps the FY2027 rate at 2.0 mills.

The carry forward is money from prior fiscal years that the MSTU holds for projects and storms. Budget figures change with each packet, so a reader who needs the current number reads the newest packet on the county's program page.

Who runs the MSTU, and when does it meet?

A county advisory committee of five resident seats, with four-year terms, advises the MSTU, and county staff manage it. The committee meets on the third Thursday of the month at 2:00 p.m. at South Regional Library, 8065 Lely Cultural Parkway; the next meeting is November 19, 2026.

The meetings are public, and the packets posted on the county's program page show the agenda, the budget and the maintenance reports. Members are residents of the district. The MSTU and its committee are county bodies, which is a different thing from the civic association.

What projects are on the MSTU's 2027 list?

The September 2026 packet lists repaving Pebble Beach Boulevard, Thorncrest Lane and Big Springs Drive, 0.69 miles in total, replacing roadway and street signs, a "Welcome to Lely Golf Estates" median sign at the Lely Country Club boundary and a planting bed at Forest Hills and Augusta Boulevards.

These are listed projects, not scheduled work, and a packet's list can change at any meeting. The same packets show the budget and the reserve held for storm needs.

What happened with the Doral Circle entrance easement?

A monument easement at Doral Circle was recorded November 5, 1999, granted by Nassif Golf Ventures LLC, the former course owner, to the MSTU. In 2025 the course owner asked the MSTU to release it, and the MSTU declined; in July 2026 the committee was awaiting a Lantern Club landscape design for that triangle.

The record is in the November 2025 packet and the July 2026 packet. It is one of the places where the MSTU's public landscaping meets the golf land at the entrance near Rattlesnake Hammock Road.

What can the MSTU not pay for?

The committee's records say the MSTU "cannot spend monies on private property" (February 2020 minutes). It does not pay for work on a home, a lot, a private road or the golf land, and it does not replace an owner's own landscaping.

That limit is why the maintenance list names medians, entries, signs and lights on public rights of way. A request outside that scope goes to the property owner, the civic association or the county department that handles the item, not to the MSTU budget.

Is Lely Golf Estates Deed Restricted, and What Zoning and Rental Rules Apply?

Lely Golf Estates' entrance sign calls it a restricted community, and residents asked the county in August 2026 to review that wording. No recorded declaration was read for this guide, so the title commitment for each lot shows the restrictions that apply, and county zoning and registration rules sit on top of them.

Data updated: November 2026 (Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee records through October 2026; Collier County zoning map; news reports on the county's vacation rental registration, read November 8, 2026).

The questions here are the ones a buyer or seller asks before a closing: what restricts a lot, what the county allows on it and whether it can be rented. Each answer says which document settles it.

Is Lely Golf Estates a deed restricted community?

The Lely Golf Estates entrance sign reads "A Deed Restricted Community", and committee records show the association's covenants went to the county attorney between 2022 and 2025; at the August 20, 2026 MSTU meeting a resident asked that the phrase be removed and county staff were to check the wording, and no recorded declaration was read for this guide, so the title commitment for each lot is the document that shows which restrictions apply.

A sign states a claim; a recorded document proves it. The sign is the only place the phrase was found in the records read, and the county was asked to look at it.

How do I find the restrictions on a specific Lely Golf Estates lot?

Start with the title commitment, which lists the recorded plat for the lot's plat and any recorded declaration, easement or covenant as exceptions. Then ask the seller for any association documents they hold, and compare both with the survey.

The legal description names one of the six plats: Unit 1, Unit 2, the Forest Hill Section, St Andrews East, St Andrews West or the Tract Map. That description, not the street name, decides which recorded plat applies, because Pebble Beach Boulevard, Saint Andrews Boulevard and Forest Hills Boulevard each cross more than one plat. A title company can order the recorded documents listed in the commitment.

What zoning covers Lely Golf Estates?

Collier County's zoning map shows single-family residential districts, RSF-3 and RSF-4, across the Lely Golf Estates area and general commercial zoning along US 41 East; the district for a specific lot, and the setbacks and height it allows, are confirmed with the county before any plan to rebuild or add on.

Zoning is a county designation that attaches to land. Lot-level standards for a given address: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Can I rebuild or add on to a Lely Golf Estates home?

That depends on the county's zoning district for the lot, a county permit and the flood rules decide it. Confirm the district with Collier County before any plan to rebuild or add on, and ask for the home's elevation certificate before design work starts.

In a flood zone, FEMA's substantial-improvement rule applies when the cost of an improvement or a repair is more than 50 percent of the home's value: the home then has to meet current flood rules. Confirm how it applies to a specific home with the county. With 81 of the 388 homes carrying a roll year from 2015 to 2025, rebuilding is common on these plats.

Can I rent out a Lely Golf Estates home?

Unincorporated Collier County requires owners of short-term vacation rentals to register under an ordinance effective January 2022, as Avalara and WINK News reported, and Florida law limits how far a county can regulate vacation rentals; any rental limit in a recorded Lely Golf Estates restriction would show on the title commitment, and none was read for this guide.

Lely Golf Estates is in unincorporated Collier County, so the county rule, not a city rule, is the one that applies. A buyer who plans to rent asks for the title commitment first and reads the exceptions line by line.

Does Collier County require a rental registration?

Yes, for short-term vacation rentals in unincorporated Collier County, which includes Lely Golf Estates. The registration requirement took effect in January 2022 under a county ordinance, and the two news reports on the rule are the sources read.

This guide prints no registration fee or penalty amount. An owner who plans a vacation rental checks the county's current requirement and any recorded restriction on the lot before buying, because both can change what the home can be used for.

Can I run a business from a Lely Golf Estates home?

The answer depends on the lot's zoning district and any recorded restriction, and neither is something this guide can state for a specific address. Confirm the use with Collier County and read the title commitment before relying on a business plan for a home here.

The county map shows general commercial zoning along US 41 East, which is where commercial and office buildings stand along Tamiami Trail East. A home inside the single-family districts is judged under the rules for its own district.

What Is the Lely Golf Estates Real Estate Market Doing?

Lely Golf Estates' 60 months hold 65 qualified recorded sales, from $350,000 to $870,000, at a $545,000 median. Only 6 sales closed in the last 12 months, from $375,000 to $680,000, too few for a median, so a single closing moves any range or median read from them.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County recorded sales, county records through mid-October 2026, county file dated October 27, 2026, our analysis). This market section is built from Collier County recorded sales only; no MLS data was pulled.

We tracked every qualified recorded sale the county file holds for Lely Golf Estates' 388 homes, 65 sales in the 60 months through mid-October 2026. The newest qualified sale on the file is May 18, 2026. No sale in these tables carries a house number; each is shown by date, price, county heated area, roll year, street and plat.

What have Lely Golf Estates homes sold for in the last 12 months?

From October 16, 2025 to October 16, 2026 the county file holds 6 qualified sales, from $375,000 to $680,000. Six sales are too few for a median. By plat, Unit 2 had 2 ($375,000 to $420,000), St Andrews East 2 ($630,000 to $680,000) and St Andrews West 2 ($468,000 to $565,000); Unit 1 and the Forest Hill Section had none.

These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast. The 12-month count is the smallest of the five windows, and the 24-month window holds 19 sales from $375,000 to $870,000.

What is the median sale price in Lely Golf Estates?

The 24-month median is $550,000 on 19 qualified sales, the 36-month median is $547,500 on 28 and the 60-month median is $545,000 on 65. Per county heated square foot the medians are $274, $268 and $274. Price per square foot here uses the county's heated area, which can differ from a listing's living area; read it as a county measure.

A median needs 10 sales, which is why the 12-month row has none.

How do prices differ by plat?

Over 60 months the plat medians sit close together, from $515,000 in Unit 2 to $592,500 in St Andrews East, on 5 to 19 sales each. Unit 1 has 5 sales in the window, too few for a median. Per county heated square foot the medians run $259 to $276, and price per square foot here uses the county's heated area, which can differ from a listing's living area; read it as a county measure.

These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast. Over 120 months the plat medians are Unit 1 $330,000 (24 sales), Unit 2 $425,000 (43), Forest Hill Section $361,500 (48), St Andrews East $415,250 (34) and St Andrews West $455,000 (27). The newest qualified sale by plat is Unit 1 July 7, 2025, Unit 2 January 8, 2026, Forest Hill Section October 14, 2025, St Andrews East May 18, 2026 and St Andrews West January 8, 2026.

Which Lely Golf Estates homes sold in the last three years?

The county file holds 28 qualified sales from February 2, 2024 to May 18, 2026, shown here by date, price, county heated area, roll year, street and plat. No house number is printed. The county's heated area can differ from a listing's living area.

A seller reads the list by matching a home's county heated area, roll year, street and plat to the nearest rows, and then checks the survey and permit history for the differences the county does not record.

How have Lely Golf Estates prices moved over ten years?

The county file shows the median for each calendar year from 2016 to mid-October 2026, with the 120-month median at $390,000. Years with fewer than 10 sales carry no median in the 2026 row. Read the table as a record of what closed, not as a direction.

These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast.

How often do Lely Golf Estates homes change hands?

The county file counts 26, 17, 22, 19 and 25 qualified sales for 2016 through 2020, then 31, 14, 16, 11 and 13 for 2021 through 2025, and 4 for 2026 to mid-October. The busiest years on the county file were 2001 and 2003, with 39 sales each.

On the county file's full history there are 846 qualified sales, from $101,000 to $870,000, with a median of $200,000. With 388 homes, the yearly counts are small, so a buyer or seller finds only a handful of comparable sales in any one year.

What did repeat sales show in Lely Golf Estates?

Among 60 Lely Golf Estates homes that sold twice with the second sale in the last 60 months, the median change between the two recorded prices was +85 percent; that figure is nominal and does not adjust for renovations, rebuilds or the years between sales.

A repeat sale compares a home with itself, which removes size and street from the comparison, but not condition or the years held. It describes the group of 60 homes, not any single home, and it is not a forecast for a home bought today.

Do newer or larger homes sell for more here?

In the 36-month list, newer roll years and larger county heated areas appear among the higher prices, and older roll years appear among both lower and middle prices. The list shows a $870,000 sale of a 2,796 square foot home with a 2022 roll year and a $629,000 sale of a 4,102 square foot home with a 2006 roll year.

It also shows a $350,000 sale of a 1,820 square foot home with a 1991 roll year and a $680,000 sale of a 2,574 square foot home with a 2000 roll year. The table does not separate condition, lot, elevation or course frontage, so it makes no claim about cause.

Why are some recorded deeds left out of these figures?

Priced deeds the county did not mark as qualified, including the March 4, 2026 golf-parcel deed, are left out of every median. That deed, at $12,400,000, covers three golf parcels and is not a home sale.

Only sales the county marks as qualified enter the ranges and medians here, so a transfer of land or a transfer the county does not mark as qualified does not move a neighborhood median.

Where can I see current Lely Golf Estates listings?

See current Lely Golf Estates listings on our Domain Realty Group team site, which carries the active listings for the neighborhood.

Multiple Listing Service fields such as asking price, days on market, list-to-sale ratio and active listings are not public records and were not pulled for this guide (checked 2026-11-08); every price figure here is a Collier County qualified recorded sale.

How does Lely Golf Estates compare on price with other East Naples golf neighborhoods?

Lely Golf Estates' 60-month median is lower than the 60-month medians for Lely Country Club's single-family plats, Royal Palm Golf Estates, Lely Island Estates and Kings Lake on the county file, and higher than those for Naples Manor and Lely Tropical Estates.

The comparison uses county recorded sales over the same 60-month window, and each community has its own sales count,, and none is compared here beyond that one reading.

Does the Lantern Club plan show up in recorded sales yet?

The county file does not show it either way. The newest qualified sale in Lely Golf Estates is May 18, 2026, and 4 qualified sales are on file for 2026 to mid-October. The club is a reported plan with a reported opening target of late 2028 if permits are in place.

A sale recorded months before or after the March 2026 course sale cannot be read as a response to it. The county file shows what closed and at what price; it does not show why.

What Does It Cost to Own a Home in Lely Golf Estates?

Lely Golf Estates' recurring owner costs start with the county tax bill, a $3,729 median on the 2026 roll, with non-ad valorem charges of at most $270. No community development district appears on any bill and no association dues figure was found, so insurance and upkeep are set home by home.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County 2026 tax roll, millage areas 161, 163 and 7; FEMA Risk Rating 2.0, read November 8, 2026).

The tax bill is the one recurring cost the public record states for every home. The rest depends on the home and the lot, so each answer names the document that sets the figure.

What recurring costs come with a Lely Golf Estates home?

The county tax bill is the largest recurring line the records show, and it already carries the MSTU, the fire district and the school levies inside its millage. Beyond the bill, a home has homeowners insurance, flood insurance where required, utilities and upkeep, none of which a community average can price.

Is there an HOA fee in Lely Golf Estates?

No dues figure appears in any record read for this guide. Collier County's MSTU committee minutes name a resident organization, the Lely Civic Association, and no state filing, dues figure or rule requiring membership was found, so a buyer asks the seller and the title company what applies to a specific lot.

This guide prints no dues amount. A figure quoted in a listing is not a recorded document, and the title commitment and the seller's association papers are where an obligation would show.

Does a Lely Golf Estates owner pay anything to Hibiscus Golf Club or the Lantern Club?

No source read for this guide gives Lely Golf Estates homeowners any right to join the Lantern Club, any discount or any obligation to it; the residential lots were not part of the sale, and a buyer confirms on the title commitment whether any recorded easement or covenant ties a lot to the golf land.

The only club figures on record are the reported ones for people who choose to join the planned Lantern Club: a reported initiation fee starting at $250,000 and anticipated annual dues of $20,000 to $25,000. They apply to membership, not to owning a home here.

How much is flood insurance on a Lely Golf Estates home?

It depends on the home. FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 prices each home on flood frequency, flood types, distance to water, elevation and rebuild cost, and FloodSmart says premiums are unique to each property, so this guide prints no premium.

A buyer asks an insurance agent for a quote on the specific address before the inspection period ends, with the home's elevation certificate in hand. With 339 of 360 address points in Zone AE on panel 12021C0601J, a quote is part of any offer on a home here; confirm the zone on the current FIRM.

What should a buyer budget for an older Lely Golf Estates home?

The items to plan for are the roof, the openings, the electrical and plumbing, and wind mitigation. About 183 of the 388 homes carry a roll year from 1969 to 1994, before the 2002 Florida Building Code, and may keep original roof-to-wall connections and unprotected openings unless they were retrofitted.

Florida's wind-mitigation statute, s. 627.0629, requires insurers to offer discounts for wind-resistive features, and My Safe Florida Home offers wind-mitigation inspections. A buyer asks for permits, the roof age and the elevation certificate. This guide prints no repair estimate.

Is there a special assessment for the MSTU?

No. The MSTU has no separate assessment: its 2.0000 mills are inside the millage on the tax bill, and the 2026 roll shows non-ad valorem charges of at most $270 on every bill. A buyer sees the MSTU as a levy line on the county tax notice.

The MSTU's budget draws on millage, interest and a carry forward, and the committee holds a $150,000 reserve for catastrophic events. A storm cost that exceeds the reserve goes through county budget action, which the committee's packets would show.

What Are Property Taxes in Lely Golf Estates?

Lely Golf Estates tax bills show a median total of $3,729 on the 2026 county roll, from $270 to $15,618, at 12.3696 mills in area 161 (323 homes) and 12.4721 mills in area 163 (64 homes). Non-ad valorem charges are at most $270 on every bill.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County 2026 tax roll, millage areas 161, 163 and 7).

We read the 2026 county tax roll for all 388 homes. The median 2026 county roll just value is $419,225, from $287,194 to $1,230,638, and 284 of the 388 homes (73 percent) carry a homestead exemption. The tables show the rates by authority and the figures by plat.

What is the millage rate in Lely Golf Estates?

Lely Golf Estates' 388 homes sit in three millage areas on the 2026 county roll: area 161 at 12.3696 mills (323 homes), area 163 at 12.4721 mills (64 homes) and area 7 at 10.3696 mills (the single Tract Map home). A Lely Golf Estates tax bill applies the millage rate to the home's taxable value, after any homestead exemption and assessment cap, and adds the non-ad valorem charges.

No city levy appears on any of the 388 bills, which confirms that Lely Golf Estates is in unincorporated Collier County.

Why do some Lely Golf Estates homes pay a lighting levy?

The 64 homes in millage area 163 pay the same eleven levies as area 161 plus Collier County Lighting at 0.1025 mills, for a total of 12.4721. Area 163 holds St Andrews East (35 homes), St Andrews West (27) and Unit 2 (2).

The lighting levy is a county charge attached to that area on the 2026 rate file, separate from the MSTU, which also pays for street lights on its own maintenance list. The single Tract Map home in area 7 carries the area 161 levies without the MSTU, for 10.3696 mills.

What do Lely Golf Estates homes pay in property tax?

The median 2026 total tax is $3,729 across all 388 homes, from $270 to $15,618. By plat the medians run from $3,469 in Unit 1 to $4,094 in St Andrews East.

What is the 2026 just value of Lely Golf Estates homes?

The median 2026 county roll just value is $419,225, from $287,194 to $1,230,638. Just value is the county's assessed figure for tax purposes. It is not a sale price, and it can differ from what a home sells for.

By plat the median just value runs from $400,184 in Unit 2 to $467,457 in St Andrews East, with the one Tract Map home at $539,258. A seller uses the county's figure as a tax fact, and the recorded sales as the market fact.

How many Lely Golf Estates homes are homesteaded?

On the 2026 roll, 284 of the 388 homes (73 percent) carry a homestead exemption. By plat that is 59 of 82 in Unit 1 (72 percent), 65 of 92 in Unit 2 (71 percent), 64 of 86 in the Forest Hill Section (74 percent), 46 of 63 in St Andrews East (73 percent), 49 of 64 in St Andrews West (77 percent) and the Tract Map home.

The count is a tax fact: it shows how many bills carry the exemption. It says nothing about who lives in a home or for how long.

Will my taxes change when I buy a Lely Golf Estates home?

Yes, usually. The homestead exemption applies to a permanent residence and must be applied for by the new owner, and the annual cap on assessed value applies to homesteaded homes. A sale resets the assessment, so a buyer's first bill can differ from the seller's last one.

A seller's bill is therefore not a forecast for a buyer's. The county's rates, the home's new assessment and any exemption the buyer qualifies for set the next bill, and a buyer asks for the millage area from the latest tax notice before an offer.

What is the non-ad valorem charge on Lely Golf Estates bills?

Non-ad valorem charges are at most $270 on any of the 388 bills on the 2026 roll. They are separate from the millage rates and printed in their own section of the tax notice.

The tax notice for a specific home is the document that names each non-ad valorem line. The name of the line item on a Lely Golf Estates bill: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

What Utilities and County Services Does Lely Golf Estates Have?

Lely Golf Estates homes receive county services through unincorporated Collier County, with the Greater Naples Fire Rescue District levy on every tax bill at 2.0000 mills and the Beautification MSTU maintaining medians, lights and signs. The provider for each utility is confirmed by address with the provider.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County 2026 tax roll; Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets through October 2026; Naples News Now report, February 2026).

Utility providers vary by address and by street. This section states what the tax roll and the committee packets show, and sends the rest to the provider that bills the home.

Who provides water and sewer in Lely Golf Estates?

Confirm the water, sewer, electric, trash and internet providers for a specific Lely Golf Estates address with each provider before closing; the Greater Naples Fire Rescue District levy appears on every Lely Golf Estates tax bill.

The provider list for a given address is not stated in any record read. Providers by address: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

Which fire district covers Lely Golf Estates?

The Greater Naples Fire Rescue District, which levies 2.0000 mills on every Lely Golf Estates tax bill on the 2026 roll. In an emergency call 911.

This guide gives no station address or response time. The 2.0000 mills are one of the eleven levies in millage area 161 and appear on the tax bill with the rest.

Is a sewage lift station planned near Lely Golf Estates?

Naples News Now reported in February 2026 that Lely Golf Estates residents raised concerns about a county-owned lot, bought in 2012 and deeded to the Collier County Water-Sewer District, that could become a sewage lift station; no project was announced.

The Naples News Now report is the source. A buyer who wants to know about a specific lot asks the county utility department what is planned.

Who maintains the medians and street lights in Lely Golf Estates?

The Beautification MSTU maintains the landscaping, irrigation and mulch in the medians and entries, the street lights, entry monuments and decorative signs, an irrigation pump station on Warren Street, four radar speed signs and holiday lighting on the streets and entries on its list.

The committee's January 2019 minutes record the Warren Street irrigation pump in service from January 17, 2019, and the irrigation water for the medians is billed through Collier County water. The MSTU does not pay for work on private property, so an owner maintains the lot and the house.

Is Lely Golf Estates in a Flood Zone?

Lely Golf Estates mostly maps in Zone AE: Collier County's republished copy of the effective FEMA flood map places 339 of the 360 address points tested in Zone AE and the other 21 in shaded Zone X, on panel 12021C0601J. Confirm each home on the current FIRM and with its elevation certificate.

Data updated: November 2026 (county copy of the effective FEMA flood map, panel 12021C0601J, and the county evacuation-zone and Coastal High Hazard Area maps, read November 8, 2026).

We read the county's copy of the effective FEMA flood map at 360 Lely Golf Estates address points, and the county's evacuation-zone and Coastal High Hazard Area maps. The result differs by plat, and the shaded Zone X points cluster on a few streets. What the record shows by plat:

Address points are not the same as the 388 homes: some addresses are not homes and a few homes are missed. The map describes a location, not a structure, so a lender's flood determination and each home's own elevation certificate decide how a specific Lely Golf Estates home is rated.

What flood zone is Lely Golf Estates in?

Collier County's republished copy of the effective FEMA flood map places 339 of the 360 Lely Golf Estates address points tested in Zone AE, a 1 percent annual chance flood zone, and the other 21 in shaded Zone X, on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024; confirm the zone for a specific home on the current FIRM and its elevation certificate.

A zone label belongs to a location on a map. The flood determination a lender orders for one address, and the elevation certificate for one structure, are the documents that answer the question for a specific home.

Which Lely Golf Estates streets map partly in shaded Zone X?

Shaded Zone X points cluster on Doral Circle (6 of 47 points), Willow Creek Lane (6 of 10), Saint Andrews Boulevard (5), Forest Hills Boulevard (3) and Pebble Beach Boulevard (1). Every other street tested is entirely Zone AE.

A shaded Zone X reading on a street does not clear every home on it, because the points are tested one address at a time. A buyer confirms the zone for the specific home on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024, on the current FIRM.

What is the base flood elevation in Lely Golf Estates?

Mapped base flood elevations in and around Lely Golf Estates run about 7 to 8 feet on the county's republished 2024 map data; the elevation certificate for a specific home, not a neighborhood figure, shows how its lowest floor compares.

FEMA defines the base flood elevation as the level with a 1 percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in a year.

Do I need flood insurance in Lely Golf Estates?

A lender making a federally backed mortgage on a home in Zone AE generally requires flood insurance; the flood determination for the specific home settles it.

A standard homeowners policy does not cover flood, so the flood policy is a separate purchase. A cash buyer decides for themselves, and the lender's flood determination for the specific home is the document to ask for. The cost follows the house, its elevation and its rebuild cost, not the zone label alone.

What hurricane evacuation zone is Lely Golf Estates in?

All 360 Lely Golf Estates address points fall in hurricane Evacuation Zone C on the county's map; evacuation zones are surge-based and separate from FEMA flood zones.

A home can therefore have a flood zone and an evacuation zone that answer different questions. When the county issues an evacuation order, follow it for your zone.

Is Lely Golf Estates in the Coastal High Hazard Area?

On our reading of the county's Coastal High Hazard Area boundary line, Lely Golf Estates lies on the coastal side of the line, inside the Coastal High Hazard Area; the county's map is a boundary line rather than a shaded area, so confirm with Collier County for a specific lot.

The designation is a planning tool the county uses. It does not replace the flood determination for a specific home, and it does not change the Zone AE reading on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024.

How do I find a Lely Golf Estates home's elevation certificate?

The county's elevation certificate index lists certificates on Lely Golf Estates street names. The seller, the permit file or the county holds the certificate for a specific home, because a certificate is prepared for one structure.

Lowest-floor elevations of Lely Golf Estates homes compared with the mapped base flood elevation: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

A buyer asks the seller for the certificate early in the contract period. A seller gathers it before the home goes on the market, so the question is answered before it is asked.

Where does rain drain from Lely Golf Estates?

Collier County's basin map service places the center of Lely Golf Estates in the Lely Manor Canal Basin.

A basin is a county drainage planning unit, and the map shows which one covers the area. It does not describe how a specific street or lot drains in a heavy storm, which a survey and the elevation certificate help answer.

Does the golf course help with drainage?

No source read for this guide describes how the Hibiscus Golf Club land handles drainage for the surrounding streets. The county basin map is the record, and it assigns the area to the Lely Manor Canal Basin.

A buyer who cares about drainage for one lot asks the seller what the lot has done in heavy rain and reads the survey and the elevation certificate.

How Did Hurricanes Irma and Ian Affect East Naples?

Lely Golf Estates sits in East Naples along US 41 East, and the National Hurricane Center and the National Weather Service describe Irma and Ian by stretch of coast, not by street. None of those reports names Lely Golf Estates, so this guide repeats each area statement as written and attributes it.

Data updated: November 2026 (National Hurricane Center and National Weather Service reports, read November 8, 2026).

We read the National Hurricane Center's reports on Irma and Ian. Each report covers a long stretch of coast, so a sentence about Naples or Collier County is an area statement and says nothing about one street. Each storm gets its own question.

What did Hurricane Irma do in Collier County?

The National Hurricane Center's Irma report records Irma's landfall near Marco Island on September 10, 2017 as a Category 3 hurricane, a 123-knot gust at Naples Municipal Airport, and 3 to 5 feet of inundation along the coast from Marco Island through Naples. In Collier County the report counts at least 88 buildings destroyed and 1,500 badly damaged.

The National Weather Service Miami summary of Irma adds 9 to 15 inches of rain inland, and WGCU reported in 2017 on Collier damage after the storm. These are county and coast statements, not statements about Lely Golf Estates.

What did Hurricane Ian do in Collier County?

The National Hurricane Center's Ian report records Ian's Category 4 landfall on Cayo Costa in Lee County on September 28, 2022, maximum inundation of 6 to 9 feet over ground level in Naples, and in Collier County 33 buildings destroyed and over 3,500 with major damage.

A NOAA-hosted 2025 study modeled both storms' surge in the region. The study covers the region, so it is context for the area and gives no figure for a Lely Golf Estates street.

Did storm surge reach Lely Golf Estates?

The National Weather Service Miami summary of Ian says extensive storm surge flooding occurred over most areas south and west of US 41 and Tamiami Trail in Collier County, and lists an East Naples weather station peak of 58 mph sustained and an 89 mph gust.

Lely Golf Estates sits along US 41 East, so the statement cannot be read as a yes or no for the neighborhood. The seller's disclosure, the permit file and the insurer's claim history govern a specific home's storm history. Storm outcomes on Lely Golf Estates streets in Irma and Ian: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

How did the storms affect Lely Golf Estates street signs and landscaping?

After Hurricane Irma, the Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU took over street-sign repairs "due to the limited resources of the HOA," and Hurricane Ian damaged 27 decorative traffic signs, according to the MSTU's January 2023 committee packet.

By early 2025 the transfer of 62 signs on decorative poles and 14 on standard poles from the civic association to the MSTU was reported complete (May 2025 packet; October 2024 packet). The MSTU pays for landscaping, irrigation and mulch in the medians and entries of its streets, and it cannot spend money on private property.

How should a buyer check a home's storm history?

Ask for four things in writing during the contract period: the seller's disclosure, the permit history for the home, the elevation certificate and the insurance claims history.

Each answers a question the neighborhood-wide reports cannot. The permit history shows repairs and rebuilds, the claims history shows what an insurer paid on the address, and the elevation certificate shows where the lowest floor sits. A seller who gathers the same documents before listing answers the question before it is asked.

What reserve does the MSTU keep for hurricanes?

The MSTU's September 2026 committee packet shows a $150,000 reserve for catastrophic events inside a FY2026 budget with millage and interest revenue of $457,200, a carry forward of $755,459 and a revenue total of $1,212,659; the FY2027 rate was kept at 2.0 mills.

The reserve is a budget line for the MSTU's own medians, entries and signs. It is not insurance for a home, and it is not a promise of any repair.

What Do Code Era, Rebuilding and Insurance Mean for a Lely Golf Estates Home?

Lely Golf Estates homes carry county roll years from 1969 to 2025, so homes on the same street were built under different codes and flood rules. The 50 percent rule for rebuilding in a flood zone, the way flood insurance is priced and the choice of insurer each depend on the individual house, not the street.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County roll records, FEMA, Citizens, Insurance Journal and the Florida statutes, read November 8, 2026).

The roll year is the year the county last recorded each structure, and the rules in force at the permit date are the ones that governed construction. Each question separates what the record shows from what only an individual home's documents can show.

Which Lely Golf Estates homes were built under the Florida Building Code?

Homes with a roll year from 2002 on, about 175 of the 388, were built under the statewide Florida Building Code, adopted in 2002. Homes with roll years from 1969 to 1994, about 183, pre-date it and may keep original roof-to-wall connections and unprotected openings unless retrofitted.

That is a code-era statement, not a statement about one home. The roll year is the year the county last recorded the structure, so a recent year on a 1970s lot is a sign of rebuilding or major work, and the permit history for the home is the document that shows what was done and when.

What is a wind mitigation inspection, and why does it matter here?

A wind mitigation inspection documents a home's wind-resistive features, such as roof shape, roof-to-wall connections and opening protection. Florida's wind-mitigation statute, s. 627.0629, requires insurers to offer discounts for wind-resistive features.

My Safe Florida Home offers free wind-mitigation inspections and grants of up to $10,000 for eligible hardening. With roll years spanning 1969 to 2025 on the six plats, the inspection tells a buyer or seller what a specific home actually has.

How does FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 price flood insurance?

FEMA's Risk Rating 2.0 prices each home on flood frequency, flood types, distance to water, elevation and rebuild cost, and most annual increases are capped at 18 percent. FloodSmart says the cost is unique to each property.

FEMA's Community Rating System gives discounts in participating communities; this guide states no discount for Collier County. Two Lely Golf Estates homes in the same zone can be priced differently, and a quote for the specific address is the only figure that applies.

Does Citizens require flood insurance on a Lely Golf Estates home?

Citizens requires most personal residential wind policies to carry flood coverage, now for homes in the Special Flood Hazard Area including Zone AE, with all policies by January 1, 2027.

Most Lely Golf Estates address points map in Zone AE on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024, so the requirement is worth asking about for a Citizens policy; confirm the zone for the specific home on the current FIRM. Citizens writes HO-3 and DP-3 residential forms, and an independent insurance agent can say which carriers will write a specific address.

Is private insurance available for Lely Golf Estates homes?

Availability depends on the home and the carrier. Insurance Journal reported that Citizens' policy count fell from about 1.4 million in 2023 to under 260,000 in September 2026, a statewide count with dates and not a Lely Golf Estates figure.

Roof age, construction year, opening protection and elevation enter an insurer's decision for one address. Cost of coverage for a specific Lely Golf Estates home: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-11-08).

What is the 50 percent rule for rebuilding in a flood zone?

FEMA's substantial-improvement and substantial-damage rule requires a home in Zone AE that is improved or repaired beyond 50 percent of its value to meet current flood rules, which in practice can mean raising the home to the current requirement.

The county's building department applies the rule, so an owner planning a major remodel, or facing storm damage, asks the department how it measures cost and value for that house before work starts. A seller of a rebuilt or added-on home keeps that paperwork, because a buyer will ask for it.

Does a rebuilt Lely Golf Estates home insure differently from a 1970s home?

It can. Elevation, roof, openings and construction year enter the flood rating and the wind decision, so a home rebuilt under the Florida Building Code can present different facts to an insurer than a home last recorded in the 1970s.

The county roll shows rebuild years on every residential plat: 81 of the 388 homes carry a roll year from 2015 to 2025. New homes sit beside 1970s homes on the same streets, so two neighbors on one street can have different insurance facts. This guide gives no price, because the price comes from the carrier and the address.

What documents help a Lely Golf Estates seller with insurance questions?

Gather these for the specific address before listing:

• the elevation certificate
• the wind mitigation form
• the roof permit
• the four-point inspection
• the permit file for any rebuild or addition

Each one answers a question a buyer's insurer or lender will ask. A seller who has them ready shortens the buyer's insurance step, and the title commitment and the permit file fill in the rest.

Lely Golf Estates vs Lely Country Club, Royal Palm Golf Estates, Kings Lake and Nearby Communities: How Do They Compare?

Lely Golf Estates' 60-month median of $545,000 on 65 qualified sales is lower than the medians of Lely Country Club, Royal Palm Golf Estates, Lely Island Estates and Kings Lake, and higher than those of Lely Tropical Estates and Naples Manor. The table sets each community beside the county record.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County recorded sales, county records through mid-October 2026, county file dated October 27, 2026, our analysis).

These are qualified recorded sales over $100,000 of single-family homes on each community's own plats, from the same county file. These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast. Price per square foot here uses the county's heated area, which can differ from a listing's living area; read it as a county measure.

Lely Golf Estates has the oldest first roll year in the set after Naples Manor. Lely Country Club and Royal Palm Golf Estates are other single-family plats around golf courses, and Lely Island Estates sits at a higher price tier on the county file.

How does Lely Golf Estates compare with Lely Country Club?

Lely Country Club's single-family plats (Muirfield, Palmetto Dunes, Torrey Pines and Tanglewood) are separate plats from Lely Golf Estates: 310 homes with roll years from 1979 to 2025, and 71 qualified sales in 60 months at $525,000 to $930,000, median $710,000, median $302 per county heated sq ft.

Lely Golf Estates recorded 65 sales in 60 months at $350,000 to $870,000, median $545,000, median $274 per county heated sq ft. A listing that says Lely in its description may refer to either community or to others, so confirm the plat name on the county record.

How does Lely Golf Estates compare with Royal Palm Golf Estates?

Royal Palm Golf Estates has 253 homes with roll years from 1987 to 2025, and 139 qualified sales in 60 months at $118,700 to $1,400,000, median $689,000, median $270 per county heated sq ft.

Its 12-month record is 20 sales at $465,000 to $1,195,000, median $735,000, against Lely Golf Estates' 6 sales at $375,000 to $680,000 with no median. Both are single-family plats around golf courses, and they are separate neighborhoods.

How does Lely Golf Estates compare with Kings Lake?

Kings Lake has 336 homes with roll years from 1981 to 2025, and 70 qualified sales in 60 months at $440,000 to $1,200,000, median $772,500, median $315 per county heated sq ft.

Both are separate from Lely Golf Estates, and Lely Island Estates sits at a higher price tier on the county file. Lely Tropical Estates has few sales, so a single sale moves its figures.

How does Lely Golf Estates compare with Naples Manor?

Naples Manor has 1,149 homes with roll years from 1939 to 2025, and 90 qualified sales in 60 months at $235,400 to $560,000, median $375,000, median $305 per county heated sq ft.

The table prints no Lely Resort row, and this guide gives no Lely Resort figures. A buyer searching for a Lely address confirms whether the street is in Lely Golf Estates, Lely Resort or another community before comparing anything.

Why Buy in Lely Golf Estates: Honest Pros and Cons

Lely Golf Estates' strengths on the record are 388 single-family homes with no condominium class, a county MSTU that maintains medians and entries, no community development district and a 60-month median of $545,000 on 65 sales. Its trade-offs are a Zone AE flood map, the Hibiscus Golf Club change and a thin 12-month sales record.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County recorded sales, county records through mid-October 2026, county file dated October 27, 2026, our analysis; Collier County 2026 tax roll, millage areas 161, 163 and 7; county copy of the effective FEMA flood map, panel 12021C0601J, and the county evacuation-zone and Coastal High Hazard Area maps, read November 8, 2026; Lely Golf Estates Beautification MSTU committee packets through October 2026; road estimates measured November 2026 from Saint Andrews Boulevard).

What are the strengths on the record?

Lely Golf Estates is 388 single-family homes on six plats, with no condominium class on the county roll, around an 18-hole course that opened in 1969. A county taxing unit, the Beautification MSTU, maintains the medians, entries, street lights and signs, and no community development district appears on any bill; non-ad valorem charges are at most $270. Collier County shows 65 qualified sales in the 60 months through mid-October 2026 at a $545,000 median. Roll years run from 1969 to 2025, and 81 homes carry a year from 2015 to 2025. Measured from Saint Andrews Boulevard, Naples Botanical Garden is 2.7 road miles, Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard 4.2 and Fifth Avenue South 5.2. All 360 address points tested fall in Evacuation Zone C.

What are the trade-offs on the record?

Collier County's republished copy of the effective FEMA flood map places 339 of the 360 address points tested in Zone AE and 21 in shaded Zone X, on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024, so each home needs its own elevation certificate and a check on the current FIRM. On our reading of the county's boundary line, Lely Golf Estates is inside the Coastal High Hazard Area. Public play at Hibiscus Golf Club is reported to continue through spring 2027, the buyer plans a private Lantern Club, and no homeowner right to it was found. The association's status and dues are not published, and the entrance sign's covenant wording was raised at the August 20, 2026 MSTU meeting. Older homes face the 50 percent rule after major damage. The county shows 6 qualified sales in 12 months, and schools are unconfirmed for any address.

Is buying in Lely Golf Estates a good idea in 2026?

The county record describes what has sold, not what will. In the 60 months through mid-October 2026 it shows 65 qualified sales from $350,000 to $870,000 at a $545,000 median, and the newest qualified sale is May 18, 2026. Against that sit a flood-map check, Evacuation Zone C and the change at Hibiscus Golf Club. These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast. We make no forecast.

What should a buyer verify before an offer in Lely Golf Estates?

Before an offer in Lely Golf Estates, verify in writing:

• that the legal description names one of the six plats;
• the title commitment and any recorded restriction or golf easement on the lot;
• the association documents, if the seller holds any;
• the survey and whether the lot touches the course;
• the elevation certificate and the flood determination for the home;
• the roof and the wind mitigation form;
• permits for any rebuild or addition;
• the tax bill's millage area (161, 163 or 7) and its non-ad valorem lines;
• the school assignment for the address, with Collier County Public Schools.

Should I buy an older Lely Golf Estates home or a rebuilt one?

Of the 388 homes, 103 carry a roll year from 1969 to 1979, 99 a year from 1980 to 1999, 87 a year from 2000 to 2009 and 99 a year of 2010 or later, including 81 from 2015 to 2025; the roll year is the year the county last recorded the structure, so a recent year on a 1970s lot is a sign of rebuilding or major work, not a closing date. New homes sit beside 1970s homes on the same streets. The elevation certificate and the permit file decide more than the roll year, and the 50 percent rule applies to a substantially damaged home in a flood zone either way. We make no value claim for an older home or a rebuilt one.

The Collier County roll lists Lely Golf Estates homes at 1,100 to 4,102 heated square feet, from 1,100 to 2,971 in Unit 1 to 1,166 to 4,102 in Unit 2; listing descriptions measure living area by their own rules, so compare the county figure with the survey, the permit set and the listing.

Who owns Hibiscus Golf Club now?

Gulfshore Business reported a $28 million sale of more than 160 acres to The Lantern Club LLC from Nassif Golf Ventures LLC, with closing reported March 6, 2026. The Collier County sales file shows a priced deed dated March 4, 2026 at $12,400,000 covering three golf parcels. The two figures differ, and this guide does not reconcile them.

Can Lely Golf Estates residents join the Lantern Club?

No source read for this guide gives Lely Golf Estates homeowners any right to join the Lantern Club, any discount or any obligation to it; the sale coverage says the residential lots were not part of the sale, so owning a home here does not by itself bring club membership, and a buyer confirms on the title commitment whether any recorded easement or covenant ties a lot to the golf land.

Does Lely Golf Estates have HOA fees?

Collier County's MSTU committee minutes name a resident organization, the Lely Civic Association, and no state filing or dues figure was found in the records read, so a buyer asks the seller and the title company what applies to a specific lot. The MSTU's 2.0000 mills are a county tax on the bill, not association dues.

Is Lely Golf Estates deed restricted?

The Lely Golf Estates entrance sign reads "A Deed Restricted Community", and at the August 20, 2026 MSTU meeting a resident asked that the phrase be removed and county staff were to check the wording; no recorded declaration was read for this guide, so the title commitment for each lot is the document that shows which restrictions apply.

Can I lease out a home I buy in Lely Golf Estates?

Unincorporated Collier County requires owners of short-term vacation rentals to register under an ordinance effective January 2022, as Avalara and WINK News reported, and Florida law limits how far a county can regulate vacation rentals; any rental limit in a recorded Lely Golf Estates restriction would show on the title commitment, and none was read for this guide.

The MSTU's 2.0000 mills sit inside the 161 and 163 totals, and non-ad valorem charges are at most $270.

What public schools should I check for a Lely Golf Estates address?

Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard, which provides emergency services, is 4.2 road miles from Saint Andrews Boulevard, about 9.3 minutes.

These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast. These are qualified recorded sales over $100,000 from the county file; a sale the county did not mark as qualified, a sale under $100,000 and any sale recorded after mid-October 2026 are not in these figures.

Is Hibiscus Golf Club still open for public play?

Public daily-fee play at Hibiscus Golf Club, the 18-hole course at 5375 Hibiscus Drive that opened in 1969, is reported to continue through spring 2027. The buyer plans a private, invitation-only, golf-only club called the Lantern Club, with a reported opening target of late 2028 if permits are in place. Anyone searching for Hibiscus Golf Club Naples tee times should check with the club for current access.

Frequently Asked Questions: Seller Edition

Lely Golf Estates sellers ask what a home is worth, how county heated area, roll year, street and plat change a price, what a buyer will request and what the Lantern Club change means. Each answer draws on a county record, a public document or our analysis, and where a figure is not published we print none.

Data updated: November 2026 (Collier County recorded sales, county records through mid-October 2026, county file dated October 27, 2026; Collier County 2026 tax roll, millage areas 161, 163 and 7; county copy of the effective FEMA flood map, panel 12021C0601J, read November 8, 2026; our analysis).

What are the first steps to sell a home in Lely Golf Estates?

Price from the county's qualified recorded sales for your county heated area, roll year, plat and street, gather the survey, the elevation certificate and the permits for any rebuild, and order title work early. Start with our free home valuation.

How much is my Lely Golf Estates home worth?

We give no number without looking at the home. Your county heated area, roll year, plat, street, condition and elevation come first, and the county's qualified recorded sales for Lely Golf Estates set the starting point. Start with our free home valuation.

How do I compare my home with recent Lely Golf Estates sales?

Compare by county heated area, roll year, street, plat and date, never by house number. Among the county's qualified sales of the last 36 months, which run from $350,000 to $870,000, the $870,000 sale was a 2,796 square foot home with a 2022 roll year on Thorncrest Lane in Unit 2 on January 14, 2025, $629,000 bought a 4,102 square foot home with a 2006 roll year on Saint Andrews Boulevard in Unit 2 on May 18, 2024, and $350,000 bought an 1,820 square foot home with a 1991 roll year on Forest Hills Boulevard in the Forest Hill Section on July 2, 2024. We make no value claim for a size or a street.

Does my home's size or age change what it sells for in Lely Golf Estates?

Price in Lely Golf Estates does not track the county heated figure closely. Two homes with the same 2,793 county heated square feet and a 2006 roll year sold for $425,000 on Heather Grove Lane in Unit 2 (April 24, 2025) and $550,000 on Pebble Beach Circle in St Andrews West (February 26, 2025), and a 1,692 square foot home on Hidden Valley Drive in St Andrews East sold for $600,000. Newer roll years and larger heated areas appear among the higher prices in the 36-month list, and older roll years appear among both lower and middle prices. We make no value claim for a size or a roll year.

Does backing onto the golf course add value in Lely Golf Estates?

The county tables do not separate lots that back onto the course from interior lots, so we make no value claim. Some lots back onto the course and many do not; the survey and the recorded plat show which, and buyers ask about the Lantern Club.

How will the Lantern Club affect my home's value?

No recorded sale on the county file yet reflects an opened club. The reported timeline is public play through spring 2027 and an opening target of late 2028 if permits are in place, and the sale coverage says the residential lots were not part of the sale. We make no claim either way.

Is my Lely Golf Estates lot worth more than the house on it?

We make no claim either way. The county roll's just value is a tax figure, not a price, and the roll year shows when the county last recorded the structure, so a recent year on a 1970s lot is a sign of rebuilding or major work, not a closing date.

Why does my 2026 roll value differ from a sale price?

The 2026 county roll just value is a tax figure, not a price. Lely Golf Estates' median is $419,225, and the county's assessed value can differ from what a buyer pays on the date of a sale.

How long does a Lely Golf Estates sale take?

The county file records closing dates, not days on market, and shows pace by year: 11 qualified sales in 2024, 13 in 2025 and 4 in 2026 through mid-October. Multiple Listing Service fields such as days on market are not public records and were not pulled for this guide (checked 2026-11-08).

Is now a good time to sell in Lely Golf Estates?

We make no forecast. The last 12 months show 6 qualified sales from $375,000 to $680,000, and the 60-month median is $545,000 on 65 sales. These are small samples: a single sale moves a range or a median, so read them as the county record, not a forecast.

When is the best time of year to list in Naples?

We price from the record and the current market rather than a seasonal claim, and we state no seasonal sales pattern. Drive figures from Saint Andrews Boulevard were measured in November 2026 with one routing method, so peak-season drives on US 41 East and Davis Boulevard run longer.

Who is the best realtor to sell a home in Lely Golf Estates?

We think it is the team that prices from the county record. Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar are Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, and we tracked every qualified recorded sale the county file holds for Lely Golf Estates' 388 homes. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

Do buyers ask whether Lely Golf Estates has an HOA or CDD?

They do. Collier County's MSTU committee minutes name a resident organization, the Lely Civic Association, and no state filing or dues figure was found in the records read, so a buyer asks the seller and the title company what applies to a specific lot. No community development district appears on any Lely Golf Estates tax bill: non-ad valorem charges are at most $270 on the 388 homes.

Should my listing say "deed restricted"?

Describe only what the title commitment shows. The Lely Golf Estates entrance sign reads "A Deed Restricted Community", and at the August 20, 2026 MSTU meeting a resident asked that the phrase be removed and county staff were to check the wording; no recorded declaration was read for this guide.

Must I disclose that my home is in Zone AE?

A seller discloses what they know, and the listing team and the contract forms set how. Collier County's republished copy of the effective FEMA flood map places 339 of the 360 Lely Golf Estates address points tested in Zone AE, on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024; confirm your home on the current FIRM and with its elevation certificate. This is not legal advice; ask your attorney.

Should I share my elevation certificate with buyers?

Yes, because buyers and insurers ask for it. The county's elevation certificate index lists certificates on Lely Golf Estates street names; the seller, the permit file or the county holds the certificate for a specific home.

Do I have to disclose storm damage from Irma or Ian when I sell?

Known material facts are disclosed under the contract forms, and the listing team can tell you how. The permit file and the elevation certificate are where a buyer and an insurer look, and this is not legal advice; ask your attorney.

Does Zone AE make a Lely Golf Estates home harder to sell?

We make no claim either way. A lender making a federally backed mortgage on a home in Zone AE generally requires flood insurance, and the flood determination for the specific home settles it. Zone AE here means panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024; confirm your home on the current FIRM.

What does a title search show for a Lely Golf Estates home?

It shows the recorded plat notes, any recorded restriction, easements and liens, and the title company reports them. The title commitment shows whether any recorded easement or covenant ties a lot to the golf land.

Who pays for the owner's title policy in Collier County?

In Collier County the buyer customarily pays the owner's title policy, and the contract controls.

Will a buyer's insurance quote affect my sale?

Have the flood determination, the elevation certificate, the wind mitigation form and the roof permit date ready, because buyers need coverage bound before closing. Citizens requires most personal residential wind policies to carry flood coverage, now for homes in the Special Flood Hazard Area including Zone AE, with all policies by January 1, 2027, and Florida's wind-mitigation statute requires insurers to offer discounts for wind-resistive features. We print no insurance quote figure.

Can I sell my Lely Golf Estates home as is?

Yes, condition is negotiable. Your disclosures and the title work are still owed.

Should I make repairs or improvements before selling?

Additions and exterior work need county permits. In Zone AE on panel 12021C0601J, effective February 8, 2024 (confirm on the current FIRM), a home substantially damaged or substantially improved must be brought up to the current flood rules under the 50 percent rule. We make no value claim for any improvement.

Will my buyer's tax bill match mine?

Often not. A homesteaded home's annual increase in assessed value is capped, and a sale resets the assessment, so the buyer's first bill can differ from yours.

What happens to my homestead exemption when I sell?

It ends with your residence in the home. The exemption applies to a permanent residence, so your buyer applies on their own for their own homestead.

Do I pay tax on the gain when I sell?

Ask a tax adviser. The Internal Revenue Service publishes guidance on selling your home.

What does it cost to sell a home in Naples?

The items are a commission, which is negotiable, title and closing charges and the documentary stamp tax on the deed. In Collier County the buyer customarily pays the owner's title policy, and the contract controls. We print no figure here; ask us for a net sheet.

Can I sell a rebuilt Lely Golf Estates home for more than an original one?

We make no claim either way. The 36-month list holds both: $610,000 for a 2,274 square foot home with a 2025 roll year on Forest Hills Boulevard in the Forest Hill Section (October 14, 2025), $540,000 for a 1,972 square foot home with a 2019 roll year on Saint Andrews Boulevard in St Andrews West (November 25, 2024), $545,000 for a 1,853 square foot home with a 1969 roll year on Doral Circle in Unit 1 (November 8, 2024) and $375,000 for a 1,946 square foot home with a 1975 roll year on Pebble Beach Boulevard in Unit 2 (January 8, 2026).

Can I sell my Lely Golf Estates home with a tenant in place?

Yes. The lease and the contract govern the sale, and a buyer takes title subject to the lease as the contract states; ask us how to sequence it.

Can I sell my Lely Golf Estates home by owner?

Yes. The same disclosures, title work and flood questions apply; a listing team adds a county-based price.

How should my listing describe Lely Golf Estates?

Call it Lely Golf Estates only when the legal description names one of the six plats, and name the street and plat. State the living area from the plans and the permit, with the county heated area beside it if quoted. Describe the club, the association and the flood zone only as the documents prove them, and do not claim a course view or course frontage the survey does not show.
