Vasari Country Club - Trieste

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

Trieste at Vasari is a village of three condominiums inside the master-planned community of Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs, Florida. It holds 108 two-bedroom, two-bath condominium homes in 10 two-story buildings, seven of twelve homes and three of eight, each home with one assigned carport space, built from 2002 to 2007 by Taylor Woodrow Communities at Vasari, and every one of them is on Corsia Trieste Way. Every owner is a member of Vasari’s bundled golf club, with no initiation fee. In the 24 months to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded 10 Trieste sales at a $350,000 median, and Trieste carries the lowest Vasari CDD line, $1,709.34 for fiscal 2026. McGreevy and Comisar lead Domain Realty Group, the #1 real estate team in Southwest Florida since 2012, from an office in Bonita Springs.

A word on the name, because search results blur it. This page covers Trieste I, II and III at Vasari, a Condominium, and Trieste at Vasari Village Association, Inc., in the City of Bonita Springs, Lee County, ZIP 34135. It is not Trieste Preserve, a newer single-family street off Divot Drive elsewhere in Bonita Springs, and it is not Trieste at Bay Colony, a Naples condominium on the Florida register. Inside Vasari, Trieste is also not Matera at Vasari, the other carport section, and not Toscana at Vasari, the six-unit garage buildings.

If you own a Trieste condo and are weighing a sale, start with the market snapshot and the seller section, then call Jesse. If you are buying, the sections below show what a Trieste home costs to buy and to carry, what the three recorded declarations say about leasing, pets and sale approval, and which records you must ask the associations for before you write an offer. Where the public record stops, we say so and name the document that would answer the question.

Why McGreevy and Comisar Are the Best Realtor for Trieste at Vasari

McGreevy and Comisar are the best realtor for Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs because a 108-home condominium village with seven floor plans is sold on its records: we read all three Trieste declarations, the village covenants, the Florida condominium register, the flood layer at five buildings and every recorded Trieste sale before we price or advise, and our office is in Bonita Springs.

If you’re searching for the best realtor for Trieste at Vasari in Vasari Country Club, Bonita Springs, whether you’re ready to sell your Trieste at Vasari home or buy your next one, McGreevy and Comisar is the team that delivers. We lead Domain Realty Group, the #1 real estate team in Southwest Florida since 2012 and the #5 real estate team in Florida (RealTrends 2026), Top 1% Nationally since 2008, with over $2.5 billion sold as a team and $900 million in personal sales between Jesse and Marc. Sellers and buyers comparing the best real estate agents in Bonita Springs should ask each agent to price one specific Trieste condo from Trieste’s own recorded sales, plan by plan and floor by floor, and we do exactly that below, in the open.

Recent Trieste at Vasari market (last 24 months): In the 24 months to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded 10 Trieste at Vasari sales, all resales, at a median of $350,000 (n = 10, even, the mean of the middle pair $340,000 and $360,000), a range of $272,500 to $405,000 and a median of $230.09 per square foot of county heated area. Six of the ten closed in the last 12 months. From a separate record, the Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 21, 2026, over 24 months: 11 Trieste closings, a median 64 days on market and a median sale-to-list ratio of 94.3%; medians hide a wide range.

We tracked every one of those 10 recorded Trieste sales, and we tracked all 33 recorded in the 60 months to September 25, 2026, each sorted by condominium, floor and plan. Each of the 24-month sales is listed in the market snapshot below by month, condominium, floor and plan only.

For Trieste at Vasari sellers: premium marketing, including cinematic video, drone, professional photography, a qualified-buyer database, and discretion when a sale needs to stay quiet. A Trieste sale also needs the paperwork in order before the first showing: each Trieste declaration requires the condominium board’s written approval of the buyer, with at least 20 days’ notice before closing, plus the master association’s estoppel and the buyer’s Resale Transfer Fee at closing.

For Trieste at Vasari buyers: the first questions are the plan and the building, because Trieste’s seven plans run from 1,412 to 1,660 square feet and its buildings hold eight or twelve homes. The second is the carry: the Vasari CDD’s $1,709.34 Trieste line for fiscal 2026 is public and the lowest in Vasari, while the master, village and condominium association dues are not. The third is the rule set: no lease shorter than 30 days, no more than six leases a year, and up to two household pets.

Key Takeaways: What Should Trieste at Vasari Buyers and Sellers Know?

Trieste at Vasari buyers and sellers in Bonita Springs should know eight facts from the record: the home count, the plans, the price, the carry, the rules, the flood zone, the approval step and the club, each drawn from the recorded declarations, the county roll and recorded sales, the CDD budget and the FEMA flood layer.

• 108 homes, 10 buildings, three condominiums. Trieste I holds 40 homes, Trieste II 44 and Trieste III 24, in two-story buildings of eight and twelve, under one village association (Trieste I Declaration, OR 3682/2470).
• Seven plans. County heated area runs 1,412, 1,450, 1,461, 1,551, 1,603, 1,651 and 1,660 square feet, every home two bedrooms and two baths (Lee County Property Appraiser roll).
• $350,000 median. Ten recorded sales in the 24 months to September 25, 2026, from $272,500 to $405,000; 33 sales at a $425,000 median over 60 months.
• $1,709.34 CDD line, the lowest in Vasari. The Vasari CDD’s fiscal 2026 Trieste (“Condo I”) assessment, proposed at $1,463.77 for fiscal 2027, with the bond debt scheduled to end after the 2027 bill, assuming no new borrowing.
• 30 days, six times a year. No Trieste lease may run under 30 days or occur more than six times in a calendar year, and every lease needs association approval.
• No age restriction. All three declarations say, “There is no restriction on the ages of occupants of units.”
• Zone X at every sampled building. FEMA’s live layer returns shaded Zone X, no base flood elevation, panel 12071C0659G, at all five Trieste buildings we queried; Lee County evacuation Zone B.
• Bundled club, board-approved sales. Membership in Vasari Country Club comes with ownership, with no initiation fee, and every sale needs the condominium board’s written approval.

What Is It Like Living in Trieste at Vasari as a Homebuyer?

Living in Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs means a two-bedroom, two-bath condominium in a two-story building of eight or twelve homes with one covered carport space, exterior upkeep handled by the association, a village pool area, and bundled membership in Vasari Country Club’s 18-hole golf course, racquet courts, fitness center and clubhouse behind a 24-hour manned gate.

What Is Trieste at Vasari?

Trieste at Vasari is one of six condominium sections inside Vasari Country Club, a gated community of 766 homes in Bonita Springs. On the record it is three separate condominiums, Trieste I, II and III at Vasari, each created by its own recorded declaration and run by its own condominium association. Those three associations are the members of a fourth body, Trieste at Vasari Village Association, Inc., which owns and keeps the village’s shared grounds. With 108 homes, Trieste is the third-largest Vasari condominium section after Toscana and Matera.

Three Condominiums, One Village, One Club

A Trieste owner belongs to three layers at once. The condominium association insures and maintains the building, the roof and the carports. The village association keeps the shared lawns, drives, parking areas, sidewalks, sprinklers and recreation facilities on Trieste’s village tract, and its budget is split among the three condominiums by unit count. Above both sits Vasari Country Club Master Association, Inc., which owns the golf course and clubhouse and runs the gate. Each Trieste declaration says that by taking title an owner “automatically becomes a Class ‘A’ member of the Club.”

One Street: Corsia Trieste Way

All 108 Trieste homes sit on one street, Corsia Trieste Way, in ten buildings numbered 1 to 10 by the county. Trieste III’s two buildings are at the west end, Trieste I’s four in the middle and Trieste II’s four at the east end. Unlike Matera, which is split between Matera Lane and Altessa Way, a Trieste address cannot be confused with another Vasari section’s street, which makes comparing sales simpler. The village sits on Tract D of Vasari Country Club Unit One, Plat Book 70, pages 87 to 95.

The Home: Two Bedrooms, Two Baths, One Carport

Every one of the 108 Trieste homes is recorded on the county roll with two bedrooms and two baths. The homes come in seven plans from 1,412 to 1,660 square feet of county heated area, more plan choices than any other Vasari carport section. Half the homes are ground floor and half upper floor. Parking is by carport: the declarations assign each home one covered space as a limited common element and bar any home from holding more than one.

What Ownership Includes Through the Club

The club’s own Questions and Answers sheet says that “since Vasari is a bundled community, your club membership and amenities are included with your ownership,” with no separate initiation fee and no food and beverage minimum (Vasari Country Club Q&A, club marketing, read October 10, 2026). The club lists the 18-hole golf course, driving range, tennis, pickleball, bocce and clubhouse among what dues cover, along with the 24-hour manned gatehouse and cable and internet service. Food, events, cart fees when applicable and lessons are billed separately.

Who Lives in Trieste, by the Record

The Lee County Property Appraiser’s parcel layer shows a homestead exemption on 31 of the 108 Trieste homes, about 29 percent, which marks those homes as the owner’s permanent Florida residence. That is a higher share than Matera’s one in five. The rest are second homes, investment homes or homes whose owners have not filed. The declarations allow leasing with approval, so some homes are rented by the season. We describe the property and the record, not the people who live there.

What Trieste Does Not Have

Five things buyers sometimes assume. No garage: every Trieste home parks under a carport, and boats, trailers and golf carts must be kept in an enclosed garage, which Trieste homes do not have. No three-bedroom plan: every home is two bedrooms on the roll. No elevator recorded: the buildings are two stories. No new construction: the roll dates every home to 2002 to 2007, and every sale in the last 24 months was a resale. No published association dues: the CDD line is public, the master, village and condominium dues are not.

What Do Trieste at Vasari Condos Sell For?

Trieste at Vasari condos in Bonita Springs sold 10 times in the 24 months to September 25, 2026 at a $350,000 median, from $272,500 to $405,000, or $230.09 per square foot of county heated area, in Lee County’s recorded sales. Over 60 months, 33 sales closed at a $425,000 median, $263.48 per square foot.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser public roll and Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026, our analysis run October 12, 2026; Southwest Florida MLS, pull of October 21, 2026)

These figures are Lee County’s DOR-qualified recorded sales, the deed price the county records, matched to the 108 Trieste parcels on the roll. They are not MLS figures. Medians use the mean of the middle pair when the count is even. Square-foot figures use the county’s heated area, which can differ from the living area in a listing. The MLS figures come from the Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 21, 2026 and are never blended with the county figures. Over 24 months, a window used because 12 months is thin, the MLS shows 11 Trieste closings at a $340,000 median, from $255,000 to $405,000, $203 per square foot, a median 64 days on market and a median sale-to-list ratio of 94.3%. Over 12 months it shows 6 closings at a $340,000 median, and on October 21, 2026 it showed 3 active listings from $329,000 to $425,000. Medians hide a wide range.

The Window Ladder

The 24-month window is the first with ten or more sales, so it carries the headline; the 12-month window’s six sales are listed rather than reduced to a median. The 60-month window, which reaches back to September 2021, carries the 2022 and 2023 peak, which is why its median is $75,000 higher than the 24-month median. The county has recorded 259 qualified Trieste sales since July 2002, every one of them in the 2002 to 2007 buildings.

Every Trieste Sale in the Last 24 Months

Ten sales in two years is a small market, so it is read sale by sale. Here is each one by month, condominium, floor, plan and price only, from the county’s recorded sales.

The last six rows, October 2025 onward, are the 12-month window: four Trieste II sales and two Trieste III sales, five ground floor and one upper floor, $1,991,500 in total recorded value. The three highest sales in the two years, $405,000 and two at $400,000, were 1,603 and 1,660 square foot homes, the larger plans. The August 2026 sale of $272,500, a 1,461 square foot ground-floor Trieste III home, was the lowest. A sale that far below its neighbors can reflect condition, terms or circumstances the deed does not show, so it is read as one data point, not a price level.

Ground Floor vs Upper Floor

Over 60 months, 14 upper-floor Trieste homes sold at a $457,500 median ($280.12 per square foot) and 19 ground-floor homes at a $390,000 median. That gap is partly timing: nine of the fourteen upper-floor sales closed in the 2022 and 2023 peak, including the record $555,000 in March 2023. In the last 24 months only three upper-floor homes sold, at $340,000, $375,000 and $405,000, against seven ground-floor sales from $272,500 to $400,000. Over 36 months, the first window with ten ground-floor sales, the ground floor’s median was $385,000 on 11 sales. Both recent samples are small, so a Trieste price is set from the plan and condition first and the floor second.

By Condominium: Trieste I, II and III

In the 24 months, Trieste II recorded 5 sales, from $299,000 to $400,000; Trieste III 3 sales, $272,500, $400,000 and $405,000; and Trieste I 2 sales, $360,000 and $375,000. Over 60 months Trieste II recorded 17 sales at a $400,000 median, while Trieste III’s 9 ran from $272,500 to $540,000 and Trieste I’s 7 from $339,000 to $555,000, too few for a median. Trieste I has turned over least, 7 recorded sales in five years for 40 homes, and Trieste II most, 17 for 44 homes.

The Price Path, Year by Year

Trieste’s calendar median rose from $238,250 in 2020 to $252,500 in 2021, the last years with ten or more sales. Since then each year has recorded four to eight sales, too few for a median, so the table gives counts and ranges: 2022’s eight ran from $339,000 to $550,000, 2025’s five from $340,000 to $405,000, and 2026’s four, to September 25, from $272,500 to $340,000. Matera’s six 2025 sales ran from $335,000 to $400,000.

Price Bands

No Trieste sale in either window recorded under $200,000. A sale at exactly $400,000 is counted in the $400,000 to $500,000 band.

We Pulled Every Recorded Sale in Trieste at Vasari

We pulled every recorded sale in Trieste at Vasari for the 24 months to September 25, 2026, from the Lee County Property Appraiser roll of October 2026 and the county’s sale file, matching each deed to one of the 108 Trieste parcels by its recorded condominium name, Trieste I, II or III at Vasari. The match returned 108 parcels, the number the three declarations, the village covenants and the Florida condominium register all give. We then split the sales by condominium, floor and plan, checked the floor split against the full 60 months, and read the 60-month list sale by sale to see which plans set the highs.

How the Appraiser Values Trieste

The Lee County Property Appraiser’s parcel layer, read October 12, 2026, carries a just value for each Trieste home from $286,193 to $339,417, with a median of $316,177, almost the same on the ground floor ($316,177) and the upper floor ($318,940). By condominium the median just value is $309,270 in Trieste I, $319,346.50 in Trieste II and $316,177 in Trieste III. Just value is the appraiser’s mass-appraisal estimate for the tax roll, not a sale price, and it runs about $34,000 below the 24-month sales median. Taxes are figured on assessed and taxable value after any exemption, which the roll also shows.

What the MLS Adds Later

The county’s recorded sales give the price and date of every deed. The Southwest Florida MLS adds what a deed cannot: days on market, the list price, sale-to-list ratio, concessions and active inventory. The Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 21, 2026 shows, over 24 months, 11 Trieste closings with a median 64 days on market and a median sale-to-list ratio of 94.3%; we use 24 months because 12 months is thin (6 MLS closings at a $340,000 median). It also shows 3 active Trieste listings from $329,000 to $425,000. Medians hide a wide range. For the current list of Trieste homes on the market, see Domain Realty Group’s Trieste at Vasari page.

How Did Trieste at Vasari Come to Be?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs came to be in June 2002, when Taylor Woodrow Communities at Vasari, L.L.C. designated a Trieste village on Tract D of Vasari Country Club Unit One, recorded its village covenants and the first condominium declaration, and then built ten buildings over five years, making Trieste both one of Vasari’s first condominium sections and, with Trieste III in 2007, its last.

From Livingston Oaks to Vasari

Vasari Country Club began as a zoning case the City of Bonita Springs and Lee County records call Livingston Oaks, approved for up to 799 homes on about 375.83 acres by City Ordinance 01-23 in July 2001 and re-mixed by Ordinance 04-11 in August 2004 (Ordinance 04-11). The Vasari Community Development District was established by City Ordinance 01-09 in June 2001 (CDD establishment ordinance). The master declaration for the whole club was recorded on May 1, 2002 and restated on August 23, 2024 (Amended and Restated Declaration, Instr 2024000237003).

The Supplemental Declaration, June 2002

On June 28, 2002 the developer, joined by the master association, signed a Supplemental Declaration designating “Trieste at Vasari Village” on Tract D of Vasari Country Club, Unit One, Plat Book 70, pages 87 to 95 (Supplemental Declaration, OR 3682/2429). The Trieste associations had been formed with the state the previous November: the Trieste I condominium association on November 20, 2001 and the village association the next day.

The Village Covenants, June 2002

The Declaration of Covenants for Trieste at Vasari Village was made the same day and recorded at Official Records Book 3682, Page 2434 (Village Declaration, OR 3682/2434). It presumes 108 living units during developer control, makes the condominium associations (not individual owners) the village association’s members, and runs for an initial 99 years with automatic ten-year renewals. The same covenants appear again at Book 3695, Page 1500, and the Trieste III declaration cites both recordings (OR 3695/1500).

Three Declarations, 2002 to 2007

Trieste I’s declaration states that the condominium “contains forty (40) residential units in four (4) buildings.” The developer added buildings by amendment as each reached substantial completion: the second and third amendments to the Trieste I declaration, in October and November 2002, certified Buildings 4 and 5 complete (Second Amendment, OR 3767/2889; Third Amendment, OR 3786/384), and the first amendment to Trieste II, dated May 26, 2003, did the same for Building 7 (First Amendment, OR 3967/4865).

Built 2002 to 2007

The Lee County building layer dates the Trieste buildings this way: Buildings 3, 4 and 5 in 2002; Buildings 6, 7, 8 and 9 in 2003; Building 10 in 2004; and Buildings 1 and 2, Trieste III, in 2007. That four-year pause between Building 10 and Trieste III is why Trieste III’s two buildings carry different plans and a 2007 build year. Trieste I was among the first three condominiums declared at Vasari, with Altessa I and Toscana I, and Trieste III was the last condominium declared in the community.

The Developer Guarantee and the Hand-Over

The declarations record the developer’s original assessment guarantees. For Trieste I and II, condominium common-expense assessments were not to exceed $720.00 a quarter ($240.00 a month) through December 31, 2003, then $828.00 a quarter until owners elected a board majority. For Trieste III, the 2007 figure was $955.00 a quarter ($318.33 a month) through December 31, 2007, then $1,098.00 a quarter. Those are developer promises from 2002 and 2007, not today’s dues. On December 8, 2006 the developer deeded the village’s open spaces, common areas and private roads on Tract D to the Trieste village association (Quitclaim Deed, Instrument 2006000468102).

What Are the Trieste at Vasari Buildings and Floor Plans Like?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs is ten two-story condominium buildings, seven with twelve homes and three with eight, every home two bedrooms and two baths, half on the ground floor and half above, served by covered carports, in seven plans from 1,412 to 1,660 square feet of county heated area.

Ten Buildings of Eight and Twelve

Lee County’s building footprint layer, read October 12, 2026, lists ten residential buildings named for Trieste I to III at Vasari, numbered 1 to 10, each classed “Condominium, Low Rise, 1 to 3 Floors” with two stories (Lee County GIS building footprints). Buildings 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9 hold twelve homes each; Buildings 4, 5 and 10 hold eight. The appraiser’s estimated building values run about $3.73 million to $3.80 million for a twelve-home building and about $2.38 million to $2.41 million for an eight-home building. Trieste’s twelve-home buildings are the largest condominium buildings in Vasari.

The Trieste I and II Plans

Trieste I and II share five plans: 1,412, 1,450, 1,551, 1,651 and 1,660 square feet of county heated area. In Trieste I each plan has eight homes. In Trieste II the 1,450, 1,651 and 1,660 plans have twelve homes each and the 1,412 and 1,551 plans four each, the four 1,412 and four 1,551 homes being in the eight-home Building 10 built in 2004. Every home has two bedrooms and two baths on the roll.

The Trieste III Plans

Trieste III, built in 2007 at the west end of Corsia Trieste Way, has two plans: 1,461 square feet (8 homes) and 1,603 square feet (16 homes). They are the newest condominium homes in Vasari. The 1,603 square foot plan produced two of the three highest Trieste sales in the last 24 months, $405,000 and $400,000, and the 1,461 plan the lowest, $272,500.

Plan Mix at a Glance

Source: Lee County Property Appraiser roll, October 2026. Listing living areas can differ from the county figure.

Carports and Parking

Each declaration designates “certain covered parking spaces” as limited common elements, assigned one to a home: “No unit may be assigned or acquire the use of more than (1) space. The cost of maintenance of all parking spaces and carport structures shall be a common expense” (Trieste II Declaration, OR 3926/563). The village covenants restrict parking to private automobiles and passenger vans and bar on-street and lawn parking. Trucks, commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, trailers, motorcycles, mopeds, golf carts and boats may be kept only in an enclosed garage.

Lanais, Floors and Windows

Each Trieste home has a lanai that is a limited common element. No lanai may be carpeted, covered or enclosed without board approval, no carpet or river rock may be fixed to exposed concrete, and pets may not be left unattended on a lanai. Upper-floor homes must keep wall-to-wall carpet over high-quality padding except in kitchens, baths and laundry rooms; an owner who wants tile or wood must install a sound-absorbent underlayment and get the board’s written approval first. Window coverings visible from outside must be neutral in color.

What the Roll Shows on Every Home

The parcel layer flags a carport and a pool on every Trieste home and tags every Trieste parcel as golf-course land; those are the appraiser’s community-level flags, not a promise of a golf view from a given home. The village association’s 9.79-acre tract on Corsia Trieste Way carries its own pool flag and a 589 square foot restroom building built in 2005, and the village covenants set rules for “the swimming pool.” Read together, the record points to a village pool area on the village tract; its layout and current condition are confirmed on a showing.

What Amenities Come With a Trieste at Vasari Condo?

A Trieste at Vasari condo in Bonita Springs comes with bundled membership in Vasari Country Club: the 18-hole, par 72 golf course, 300-yard driving range, tennis, pickleball, bocce, fitness center, pool and clubhouse dining, with no initiation fee and no food minimum, plus the Trieste village’s own grounds and pool area on its 9.79-acre tract.

The Bundled Club

Every Trieste declaration makes each owner a Class A member of Vasari Country Club Master Association, Inc. on taking title, and the club’s Questions and Answers sheet says membership and amenities are “included with your ownership” with “no separate initiation fee” (Vasari Country Club Q&A, club marketing, read October 10, 2026). The master declaration defines the Club Facilities as the golf course, practice area, racquet courts, pool, exercise, restaurant and social facilities.

Golf

Vasari’s course is 18 holes, par 72, credited in golf directories to Gordon G. Lewis (2002) with a 2010 update (GOLF.com Course Finder). The club books tee times through the Chelsea point system, a rolling six-day point count, with requests up to 30 days ahead. Guest golf is limited to noon or later from January through March and is not allowed on Fridays from January through April (Vasari Country Club golf page, club marketing).

Racquet, Bocce, Fitness and Social

The club lists tennis, pickleball, bocce, a fitness center with cardio, weights and personal training, a pool area and an active social calendar of holiday parties, themed nights, wine dinners, leagues and tournaments (Vasari Country Club lifestyle page, club marketing). The club announced a $6.1 million Renaissance Project in 2019 and 2020 covering a Grill and Bar expansion, a lower-level Piazza and a new golf shop building (Club + Resort Business, press).

The Trieste Village Grounds

The village association holds title to and maintains Trieste’s common areas, which its covenants describe as including “recreational facilities, entry features, roadways, drives and parking areas, landscape areas” and any secondary surface water system on them. The common-area lawns, landscaping, sprinklers and sidewalks are the village’s to keep. The village tract, deeded by the developer in December 2006, measures 9.79 acres on the county roll, and the two condominium common-element parcels add 2.62 acres (Trieste I and II) and 0.75 acre (Trieste III).

What Is Billed Separately

The club says food and beverage, events, golf cart fees when applicable, lessons, clinics, personal services, certain guest fees and optional upgrades are billed on use (Vasari Country Club Q&A). There is no marina, dock or boat storage in the club or district records, and boats may be kept in Trieste only inside an enclosed garage, so a Trieste owner with a boat keeps it elsewhere.

Who Governs Trieste at Vasari?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs is governed by four Florida not-for-profit corporations, a village association and three condominium associations, all active and all filing 2026 annual reports, under Vasari Country Club Master Association, Inc., with the Vasari Community Development District handling stormwater, lakes and perimeter walls.

Four Associations on the State Record

Source: Florida Division of Corporations detail pages, read October 12, 2026 (Trieste at Vasari Village Association; Trieste II at Vasari Condominium Association). None shows a merger or name change.

Two Management Offices on the Record

The village association, Trieste I and Trieste III list one management company in Fort Myers as registered agent and principal address. Trieste II lists a different registered agent and, since April 10, 2026, a different Fort Myers principal address with a Temple Terrace mailing address, and the Florida condominium register shows the same split. For a buyer or seller, that means the Trieste II estoppel and approval package may come from a different office than the village’s. The club’s Q&A says each neighborhood except the single-family homes has its own management company; confirm the current manager in the resale package, because managers change.

The Village Association

The village association’s members are the three condominium associations, each with one vote for every home it represents, so 108 votes in all. The village board adopts a budget and divides it by unit count, 40/108 to Trieste I, 44/108 to Trieste II and 24/108 to Trieste III, billed quarterly in advance by the tenth day of each quarter. A condominium’s village assessment may not rise more than 15 percent over the prior year without two-thirds of the village directors. After turnover, the president of each condominium association sits as a village director, so the village board is the three condominium presidents.

The Condominium Associations

In each condominium, every Trieste owner holds an equal undivided share of that condominium’s common elements and pays that share of its common expenses: one-fortieth in Trieste I, one-forty-fourth in Trieste II and one-twenty-fourth in Trieste III. The association insures the buildings, keeps the roofs, exterior walls and carports, approves leases and sales, and collects club charges as the club requires. Owners elect the board; the bylaws are recorded with each declaration.

The Master Association and the Club

Vasari Country Club Master Association, Inc. (Florida document N00000007068) is both the community association and the club, owning the clubhouse tract and golf tracts on the county roll. Its 2024 restated declaration sets base, village, special and benefit assessments, a Resale Transfer Fee on the buyer at closing, and community-wide rules on leasing, pets and parking (Amended and Restated Declaration). Its Architectural Review Committee approves exterior changes in Trieste.

The Vasari Community Development District

The Vasari CDD is a Chapter 190 special district, not an association. It owns and maintains the stormwater system of 25 lakes, the preserves, the perimeter wall and buffer landscaping, and the irrigation pump house and mains; it does not own the golf course or clubhouse (Vasari CDD). Its five supervisors meet the second Tuesday of the month at 9:00 a.m. at the clubhouse, and its assessment appears on the November county tax bill.

Where Owners Find Records

Florida law requires an association managing a condominium of 25 or more units to post listed official records, including the declaration, bylaws, rules, budgets, financial reports and inspection reports, on a website or app within 30 days of receiving or creating them (Section 718.111, Florida Statutes). Trieste I has 40 units and Trieste II has 44, so that duty applies to both. Trieste III has 24 units, one under the threshold, so the statute’s website duty does not reach it by unit count, though every owner keeps the right to inspect the official records. We found no public Trieste association website in our search; a buyer asks each manager for the owner-portal location and the current documents.

What Are the HOA Fees and Costs to Own a Trieste at Vasari Condo?

Owning a Trieste at Vasari condo in Bonita Springs means paying the master association’s club and community dues, a share of the Trieste village budget, the condominium association’s dues, the Vasari CDD’s $1,709.34 fiscal 2026 Trieste assessment, the lowest in Vasari, and county property tax. The CDD line, the millage and the association dues are all in documents, set out below.

Data updated: October 2026 (Vasari CDD fiscal 2026 adopted and fiscal 2027 proposed budgets; Lee County Property Appraiser 2026 Taxing District Millage Book, printed October 9, 2026; the association’s 2026 fee schedule and quarterly fee sheet, read October 30, 2026; district documents page checked October 30, 2026; recorded declarations read October 12, 2026)

The Stack, Line by Line

Association Dues and Fees: What the Documents Say

The association’s 2026 fee schedule, which sits on a third-party brokerage site and not on the club’s public site, lists a Master Association assessment of $13,601.02 per home for 2026, made up of $10,851.02 for operations and $2,750 for reserves, up from $12,905.98 in 2025. A capital contribution of $12,000 applies to a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 to an existing member, and the rental processing fee is $532.50. The 2024 restated declaration lets the board set a Resale Transfer Fee paid by the buyer at closing, which reads as that contribution (our inference). The budget page nets a $258 surplus credit to $13,343; which figure is billed is settled only by the estoppel or a Master Association statement. The association’s 2026 quarterly fee sheet lists Trieste I at $1,650, Trieste II at $2,090 and Trieste III at $1,625 a quarter. Whether condominium dues include building insurance, water, sewer or reserves differs by association and is not verified, so the estoppel certificates confirm them for your address. The older dues figures on the public record for Trieste are the developer’s 2002 and 2007 guarantees for condominium common expenses, which are history, not current fees.

The CDD Line and When the Debt Ends

The CDD’s fiscal 2026 adopted budget bills each Trieste home $1,709.34: $1,100.00 for operations and maintenance, the same for all 766 Vasari homes, and $609.34 toward the Series 2012 refunding bonds, the smallest debt share of the ten Vasari neighborhood lines. The June 15, 2026 proposed fiscal 2027 budget lowers the Trieste total to $1,463.77, a $245.56 cut per the budget’s printed difference, with the debt line falling to $363.77 (CDD FY2027 proposed budget). The bonds’ final maturity is May 1, 2027, so, assuming no new borrowing, no CDD debt line is scheduled after the fiscal 2027 bill. The fiscal 2027 adopted budget was not posted when checked on October 30, 2026; the district’s documents page lists only the proposed budget of June 15, 2026.

Property Tax on the Median, Worked

The Property Appraiser’s 2026 Taxing District Millage Book, printed October 9, 2026, applies 12.7942 mills for 2026 in district 017, against 12.8217 proposed in August, a rollback rate of 12.7874 and 12.7970 for 2025 (Lee County Property Appraiser, 2026 Taxing District Millage Book). The components include Lee County, 3.7623; school local, 2.2480; school state, 3.0230; and the City of Bonita Springs, 0.8411, its rolled-back rate, adopted on September 23, 2026 (Resolution 26-027). Applying 12.7942 to a value equal to the 24-month Trieste median of $350,000, before any exemption, gives $4,477.97 a year for 2026 (350 x 12.7942 = 4,477.97). The November 2026 bill carries the 2026 millage with the district’s fiscal 2027 assessment, so the proposed column below is the nearer guide; treat the figures as an illustration. Separately, Bonita Springs voters approved up to $35 million of general obligation bonds for the Bonita Estero Rail Trail on August 18, 2026, to be repaid from ad valorem taxes on all taxable property in the city over up to 30 years; the cost per home had not been published when we checked on October 12, 2026 (City of Bonita Springs Ordinance 26-05). A homestead owner’s taxable value is usually lower than the sale price, as the roll’s just value of about $316,177 for a typical Trieste home suggests.

The Annual Stack, Worked

The fixed carry, which excludes tax, insurance, utilities, food and beverage, cart fees and any assessment balance, is the master fee plus four quarters of dues plus the CDD line, arithmetic and not a bill: Trieste I $21,910.36 ($1,825.86 a month; $21,664.79 with the fiscal 2027 proposed CDD), Trieste II $23,670.36 ($1,972.53 a month; $23,424.79 proposed) and Trieste III $21,810.36 ($1,817.53 a month; $21,564.79 proposed).

Resale Transfer Fee, Estoppels and Approval Fees

The master declaration lets the board set a Resale Transfer Fee paid by the buyer at closing; the association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member, which reads as that contribution (our inference). Each association that issues an estoppel certificate may charge up to the statutory cap: Florida law sets a $250 base in section 718.116(8), and the current DBPR-adjusted caps are $299, plus $119 for expedited delivery within three business days and $179 if the account is delinquent; an association’s actual fee may be lower (Section 718.116; Stewart Title bulletin FL2022001; DBPR estoppel certificate fee schedule). The certificate is due within 10 business days of a written request. The condominium’s sale and lease application fee may not exceed $150 per applicant under section 718.112(2)(k), with a married couple counted as one applicant.

Special Assessments

The club says, “At this time, there are no planned assessments,” and that some owners carry a balance from an earlier assessment, which the estoppel shows (Vasari Country Club Q&A). Under the master declaration a special assessment above 24 percent of that year’s base assessment needs member approval, with listed exceptions. Each Trieste condominium may levy special assessments for unbudgeted common expenses under its declaration, and under each declaration a buyer is jointly and severally liable with the seller for any unpaid assessments, which is why the estoppel matters.

What Do the Trieste at Vasari Declarations Say?

The three Trieste at Vasari declarations in Bonita Springs, recorded in 2002, 2003 and 2007, share the same text on the points buyers and sellers ask about: board approval of every sale and lease, who maintains what, carports, upper-floor flooring, hurricane-season duties, signs, pets and leasing. A later recorded amendment, if any, controls over the text quoted here.

Sale Approval

Each Trieste declaration requires the board’s prior written approval before an owner sells or gives away a unit (Trieste III Declaration Sec. 14, Instrument 2007000243296). The seller gives the board written notice at least 20 days before the intended closing with the contract, the board may interview the buyer, and it must decide within 20 days of the notice and any information or interview it requests, or within 60 days of the notice, whichever comes first. Approval is issued as a recordable Certificate of Approval. If the board disapproves, it must deliver the name of an approved buyer at the same price and on substantially the same terms within 30 days.

Who Maintains What

Source: Trieste declarations Sec. 10.1, 11.1 and 11.2.

Alterations and the Architectural Review Committee

An owner needs the condominium board’s written approval for any material alteration and any change visible from outside, and the club’s Architectural Review Committee must also approve under the club documents. Hurricane shutters must meet the board’s specifications, which follow the club’s.

Hurricane-Season Duties

An owner who will be away during hurricane season must clear the lanai and entry of furniture, potted plants and movable objects before leaving and must name “a responsible firm or individual satisfactory to the Association” to look after the home if it is damaged. That duty, in Sec. 12.9 of each declaration, is one reason seasonal Trieste owners keep a home-watch arrangement in place.

Signs

No owner may post “For Sale”, “For Rent” or “Open House” signs on the condominium property without the club reviewer’s written consent, and the village covenants bar realtor signs of any kind without the village board’s written consent and ARC permission. Trieste homes are marketed online, by appointment and by the gate’s guest process, not by yard sign.

Insurance Expectations in the Text

Each declaration says the owner insures the inside of the home and “is expected to carry homeowner’s insurance, with endorsements for leakage, seepage and wind-driven rain, additions and alterations, and loss Assessment protection,” while the association carries an all-risk policy including windstorm on the buildings and common elements (Trieste I Declaration Sec. 15).

Is Trieste at Vasari a 55+ Community?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs is not a 55+ community on the recorded record. All three Trieste declarations state, in Section 12.3, “There is no restriction on the ages of occupants of units,” and the Vasari master declaration we read contains no age restriction, so the community is open to buyers of any age.

What the Declarations Say About Age

The age language is the same in Trieste I, II and III: there is no restriction on occupants’ ages, and occupants under 18 must be closely supervised by an adult. A community qualifies for Florida’s 55-plus housing exemption only by publishing and following an age policy; nothing in the Trieste, village or master documents we read does that.

What That Means for a Sale

Because Trieste is not age-restricted, a seller’s buyer pool is not limited by age, and a buyer’s lender sees an ordinary condominium. The sale still needs the board’s approval under Section 14 of the declaration, applied the same way to every buyer.

Can You Rent Out a Trieste at Vasari Condo?

A Trieste at Vasari condo in Bonita Springs can be rented, but only with the condominium association’s approval, for no less than 30 days, no more than six times in a calendar year and no longer than one year per lease, under Section 13 of each recorded Trieste declaration.

Minimum Term and Frequency

Each declaration sets a 30-day minimum lease, a cap of six leases per calendar year and a one-year maximum term (Trieste II Declaration Sec. 13.3). The master declaration’s leasing section sets the same 30-day minimum and six-lease cap for all of Vasari, and the club adds that a lease covering all of February is accepted despite the short month.

The Approval Process

The owner gives the board written notice at least 20 days before the tenant moves in, with the lease, and the lease may not begin until the association approves it. The application fee and the remaining approval steps follow Section 13 of the declaration and the current statute.

Fees and Who Pays the Dues

The association may charge an application fee up to the legal cap, now $150 per applicant under section 718.112(2)(k), with a married couple counted as one. The 2002 and 2003 declaration text says “$100.00 per applicant,” the cap at that time. The owner stays legally responsible for the condominium assessments. Under the master declaration, an owner who leases assigns the club-facility rights to the tenant for the term.

Short-Term Rentals

Nightly and weekly vacation rentals are not allowed in Trieste: the 30-day minimum and the six-lease cap rule them out. A Trieste home works as a seasonal rental of one to several months, inside the six-lease limit.

Guests Are Not Tenants

The declarations treat a guest as someone staying without paying, on a temporary basis of no more than 60 days in a calendar year. A stay for money is a lease and goes through approval.

What Are the Pet Rules at Trieste at Vasari?

Trieste at Vasari condos in Bonita Springs allow up to two common household pets such as a dog or cat, up to two caged birds and a reasonable number of tropical fish, under Section 12.4 of each declaration, with pets carried or leashed outside, never left alone on a lanai, and kept more than 25 feet from the village swimming pool.

Two Pets, Two Birds

Each declaration allows “no more than two (2) commonly accepted household pets such as a dog or cat, not more than two (2) caged birds, and reasonable numbers of tropical fish,” subject to reasonable rules by the club or the association, and bars reptiles, amphibians, poultry and livestock (Trieste I Declaration). Keeping a pet is described as a privilege the board may revoke for a pet that becomes a source of unreasonable annoyance.

Leash, Lanai and Pool Rules

Pets must be carried or leashed outside the home, and the owner cleans up after them. The village covenants say, “Pets are not permitted within twenty-five (25) feet of the swimming pool,” and the master declaration lets the club board set breeds and numbers by home type and requires a leash of no more than 15 feet. The club’s guest rules bar pets from club facilities except service dogs.

Assistance Animals

Fair housing law treats a service animal or an assistance animal as a reasonable accommodation, not a pet, so the two-pet limit does not decide those requests. The association handles them through its own process under federal and Florida law (HUD, assistance animals).

Do Florida’s Condo Milestone and SIRS Laws Apply to Trieste at Vasari?

Florida’s milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study laws apply to condominium buildings of three habitable stories or more, and every Trieste at Vasari building in Bonita Springs is recorded at two stories, so neither trigger is met on the county record. Reserve, records and budget rules for Florida condominiums still apply.

Two Stories, Not Three

Section 553.899 requires a milestone inspection for a condominium building “three habitable stories or more in height” (Section 553.899). Section 718.112(2)(g) requires a structural integrity reserve study for “each building on the condominium property that is three habitable stories or higher in height” (Section 718.112). The Lee County building layer records all ten Trieste buildings at two stories.

Reserves Still Apply

Every Florida condominium budget must include reserves for roof replacement, building painting and pavement resurfacing, though a unit-owner-controlled association may vote, by a majority of all voting interests, to reduce or waive them. Trieste I’s buildings turn 24 in 2026, so roof and painting reserves are the line a buyer reads first. Whether each Trieste association funds or waives reserves is in its budget and minutes, which are member records; ask for them.

What the State Register Shows

The Florida Division of Condominiums register, downloaded October 12, 2026, lists all three Trieste projects as approved, with the secondary status “Recorded”, meaning the annual state fee is shown as paid (DBPR condominium register). The register spells the Trieste II association “Triesta II” and gives Trieste III a 34155 ZIP; both are typing errors on the state record, and both projects are on Corsia Trieste Way, 34135. DBPR publishes submitted SIRS reports in interactive views (DBPR SIRS reporting); none is required for two-story buildings.

What a Buyer Should Ask For

Ask each association for the current budget with its reserve schedule, the last two years of financial statements, any engineering or roof reports, insurance declarations and the minutes that discuss roofs, painting or carports. Those are the documents that show whether a future special assessment is likely, and for the 2002 and 2003 buildings they matter most.

What Flood Zone Is Trieste at Vasari In, and How Do Hurricanes Affect It?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs returned FEMA shaded Zone X, the 0.2 percent annual chance area with no base flood elevation and outside the special flood hazard area, at every building point we queried, on panel 12071C0659G effective November 17, 2022. Every point also sits in Lee County evacuation Zone B, inland of the coast.

Data updated: October 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer and Lee County evacuation layer queried October 12, 2026; Lee County 2018 LiDAR spot elevations)

Five Buildings, One Answer

We queried FEMA’s live National Flood Hazard Layer at five Trieste buildings on October 12, 2026, from the west end of Corsia Trieste Way to the east (FEMA NFHL). Each point is a building, not a unit.

All five agree, and the Vasari community research found the same shaded Zone X at six more Trieste points on October 10, 2026. Ground elevations are the mean of the 2018 county LiDAR spot heights within 75 feet of each building (Lee County elevation layer), and run a few tenths of a foot below Matera’s. Confirm the zone for an exact address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center before closing.

What Shaded Zone X Means for a Loan

Shaded Zone X is a moderate flood hazard area, between the 1 percent and 0.2 percent annual chance floodplains. A federally backed lender does not require flood insurance there, and the City of Bonita Springs’ 50 percent substantial-improvement rule applies only in a mapped special flood hazard area (City of Bonita Springs, FEMA flood zone information). Flood insurance is still available, and in Florida it is often priced well below special flood hazard area rates.

Evacuation Zone B and Storm Surge

Lee County places every Trieste point in evacuation Zone B (surge zone 2). The county’s Zone B sheet says, “Zone B is very vulnerable and will experience significant impacts from land-falling storms. Evacuation will often be required for a hurricane coming from the Gulf” (Lee County Zone B sheet). The National Hurricane Center’s SLOSH worst-case envelope at the Trieste points shows no inundation for category 1 and 2 storms, about 2 to 3 feet above ground for category 3, about 9 to 10 feet for category 4 and about 13 to 14 feet for category 5 (NHC SLOSH via UF GeoPlan). That is a planning envelope for evacuation, not a forecast, and it runs about a foot higher at Trieste than at Matera.

Ian, Irma and the Storm Record

Hurricane Ian made landfall at category 4 on Cayo Costa on September 28, 2022; the National Hurricane Center measured inland high-water marks of 5 to 7 feet above ground in Bonita Springs and North Naples (NHC Hurricane Ian report). Irma’s final landfall near Marco Island was at category 3 on September 10, 2017 (NHC Hurricane Irma report). We found no Vasari-specific or Trieste-specific damage report in public records; a buyer asks the associations for their claim and repair history.

Wind Design and the Buildings

The county places Trieste in the 160 mph design wind speed zone and the wind-borne debris region (Lee County Property Appraiser hazards layers). The Florida Building Code took effect statewide on March 1, 2002, a few months before the first Trieste buildings went up. Under each declaration, shutters must meet the board’s specifications, and owners away in hurricane season must clear their lanais. A wind mitigation inspection on the Uniform Mitigation Verification form can earn insurance credits (OIR-B1-1802).

The Master Policy, the HO-6 and Loss Assessment

Each Trieste condominium association insures its buildings and common elements on an all-risk form including windstorm, in amounts the board sets each year. The owner insures the inside: appliances, air conditioning, water heater, cabinets, floor, wall and ceiling coverings and improvements. Loss assessment coverage matters in a condominium because an uninsured building loss can be passed to owners as a special assessment, shared by the 40, 44 or 24 homes in that condominium.

Citizens and the Flood Requirement

Citizens Property Insurance requires flood coverage on most new and renewing personal residential policies with wind coverage by January 1, 2027, regardless of flood zone, but its page says condominium unit-owner policies are not required to carry it (Citizens, flood requirement). A Trieste owner insured by Citizens confirms how the rule applies to the specific policy form.

The City’s Flood Discount

The City of Bonita Springs holds Community Rating System Class 5 in the National Flood Insurance Program, which gives NFIP policyholders in the city a 25 percent premium discount (City of Bonita Springs CRS). Trieste is inside the city, tax district 017, so the discount applies to NFIP policies there.

Which Schools Serve Trieste at Vasari?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs is assigned by the School District of Lee County to South Zone 3: elementary zone Q, middle zone GG and high school South Zone 3, per the district’s zone lookup at three Trieste buildings on October 10 and 12, 2026. Lee County zones set transportation and choice lists, not one fixed school.

The Zone Choices

Sources: School District of Lee County zone lookup and school zones; grades from the Florida Department of Education 2025-26 school grades, as of September 1, 2026.

Three Buildings Checked

We ran the district’s own lookup at a Trieste III building at the west end of Corsia Trieste Way and a Trieste II building at the east end on October 12, 2026, and the Vasari research ran a Trieste I building on October 10. All three returned study area 2251, South Zone 3, with the same elementary, middle and high school zones. Run the exact address in the district tool before relying on it.

How Lee County Assigns

The district’s 2026-27 plan uses zones to set which schools a student may choose and which provide bus service; applicants rank choices within the zone. The district lists high school transportation for South Zone 3 to Bonita Springs, Estero and South Fort Myers high schools (district transportation).

How Far Is Trieste at Vasari From Beaches, Airports and Hospitals?

Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs sits just east of I-75’s Bonita Beach Road exit, about 12 to 15 minutes from NCH North Hospital, 13 to 16 minutes from Bonita Beach Park and 24 to 28 minutes from Southwest Florida International Airport by car without traffic, measured from five Vasari sample points on October 10, 2026.

Data updated: October 2026 (open-source routing without traffic, from five Vasari sample points, run October 10, 2026)

Drive Times From Vasari

These are ranges across five sample points inside Vasari Country Club, not a Trieste-only measurement; Trieste sits inside that footprint. Real drive times run longer in season.

Beach Parking in 2026

Lee County closed the Bonita Beach Park lot and amenities to patrons from September 8, 2026, and the Bonita Beach Access #1 lot closes from November 1, 2026; pedestrian beach access stays open and the other numbered accesses remain (Lee County Parks, Bonita Beach Park; Bonita Beach Access #1). Little Hickory Island Beach Park’s lot and amenities have also been closed since September 8, 2026, with pedestrian access open (Lee County Parks, Little Hickory Island Beach Park). Lovers Key State Park charges $8 per vehicle (Florida State Parks, Lovers Key).

Hospitals and Emergency Rooms

From the five Vasari sample points, NCH North Hospital is 12 to 15 minutes, the NCH Bonita Springs freestanding emergency department 15 to 18 minutes, Lee Health’s Coconut Point emergency department 16 to 19 minutes, Physicians Regional Pine Ridge 16 to 20 minutes and Gulf Coast Medical Center, the area’s Level II trauma center, 29 to 33 minutes (NCH emergency services; Lee Health Coconut Point). Lee Health goes out of network with UnitedHealthcare on January 1, 2027, per Lee Health’s notice, which matters to owners on that plan.

What Are the Daily Logistics at Trieste at Vasari?

Daily life at Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs runs through Vasari’s 24-hour manned gatehouse off Imperial Parkway, an assigned carport space for each home on Corsia Trieste Way, village-kept grounds, irrigation and pool area, City of Bonita Springs permits and services, and the Bonita Springs Fire Control and Rescue District.

Gate, Guests and Showings

Vasari’s entrance is off Imperial Parkway, about a mile south of Bonita Beach Road, and the club’s dues cover the 24-hour manned gatehouse (Vasari Country Club directions). Showings, deliveries and contractors pass through the gate’s guest process, which is why a Trieste listing is shown by appointment.

Parking and Vehicles

Each home has one assigned carport space. Guest and second-car parking is in the village’s parking areas under the village board’s rules, and the village covenants bar on-street and lawn parking. Commercial vehicles, trucks, RVs, trailers, motorcycles, mopeds, golf carts and boats must be in an enclosed garage, and Trieste homes have none, so those vehicles are kept off site.

Irrigation, Lighting and Trash

The village association runs the common-area sprinklers, and its covenants warn that irrigation water “may be untreated water or treated effluent reuse water.” Garbage is collected under the county’s district 001 on every Trieste parcel record; collection days come from the association and the hauler.

Permits and Who Issues Them

Trieste is inside the City of Bonita Springs (tax district 017 on all 108 parcels), so building permits for a Trieste home, such as a window, door, air conditioning or water heater replacement, come from the City of Bonita Springs, after the condominium board’s approval and, for exterior changes, the club’s Architectural Review Committee.

How Does Trieste at Vasari Compare With the Other Vasari Neighborhoods?

Trieste at Vasari carries the lowest CDD line in Vasari Country Club, Bonita Springs, $1,709.34 for fiscal 2026, and sits with Matera in the lower price tier of the six condominium sections: its 24-month median of $350,000 compares with Matera’s $345,000 over the same 24 months and Toscana’s $500,000.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; Vasari CDD fiscal 2026 adopted budget; county roll)

The Six Condominium Sections on One Yardstick

Each section is shown at its own shortest window with ten or more sales, so the medians span different periods; read them as a ranking, not a same-day comparison. Sources: Lee County recorded sales and roll, our analysis; Vasari CDD fiscal 2026 budget.

The Same 60 Months, Side by Side

On the same 60-month window Trieste and Matera trade at almost the same price per square foot, about $3 apart, with Trieste’s median $25,000 higher, and Toscana’s garage buildings run about $37 a square foot higher than Trieste.

Trieste and Toscana

Toscana at Vasari is the largest section, 138 homes in 23 six-unit buildings with garages, including three-bedroom plans up to 2,149 square feet, built 2002 to 2005, the same years as Trieste I and II. Its 24-month median of $500,000 sits $150,000 above Trieste’s $350,000. The trade is a garage and a third bedroom for the higher price, and a $1,883.85 CDD line, $174.51 more than Trieste’s.

Trieste and the Four-Unit and Six-Unit Coach Sections

Altessa, Cassia and Firenze are the garage-parked coach sections at roughly double Trieste’s price, with plans from 1,608 to 2,875 square feet. A buyer moving up within Vasari from Trieste usually looks first at Toscana and then at these three; a seller in Trieste competes mainly with Matera and, at the top of Trieste’s range, with smaller Toscana homes.

Trieste at Vasari vs Matera at Vasari: Which Fits Your Priorities?

Trieste at Vasari and Matera at Vasari are Vasari Country Club’s two carport-parked condominium sections in Bonita Springs, close in price per square foot. Trieste offers seven plan sizes, buildings of eight and twelve on one street, and the lowest Vasari CDD line; Matera offers newer 2004 to 2006 buildings of eight and more recent sales.

Trieste vs Matera Decision Table

Sources: Lee County recorded sales and roll, our analysis to September 25, 2026; Vasari CDD budgets; FEMA NFHL; Lee County building and parcel layers; recorded declarations.

Where the Two Differ Most

The CDD line is the cleanest difference: Trieste pays $260.04 less a year than Matera in fiscal 2026 and $155.24 less in the fiscal 2027 proposal, because the two sections carry different bond classes (“Condo I” and “Condo II”). After the bonds mature in 2027, assuming no new borrowing, both would carry only the operations line, which is $1,100.00 for every Vasari home in fiscal 2026 and in the fiscal 2027 proposal. The second difference is turnover: Matera recorded 10 sales in the last 12 months to Trieste’s 6, which gives Matera more recent comparable sales and Trieste fewer competing listings.

Size and Plans

Trieste spreads across seven plans from 1,412 to 1,660 square feet, which gives a buyer more size choices and a seller fewer exact comparables. Matera is mostly one plan, 1,467 square feet, so Matera homes compare to each other cleanly. Trieste’s 1,603, 1,651 and 1,660 square foot plans, 56 homes in all, are larger than anything in Matera except Matera III’s 1,621.

Age and Setting

Trieste I and II, built 2002 to 2004, are among Vasari’s oldest condominium buildings, and Trieste III, built 2007, is its newest; Matera’s buildings date from 2004 to 2006. Trieste is entirely on Corsia Trieste Way, south of Matera, with its own village tract and pool area; Matera is split between Matera Lane and Altessa Way.

Which Fits Which Buyer’s Priorities?

Trieste fits a buyer whose priorities are the lowest CDD line in Vasari, a choice among seven plan sizes including some of the larger carport homes, and a single-street village. Matera at Vasari fits a buyer whose priorities are a slightly lower recent median, a single well-traded plan with many recent comparable sales, and 2004 to 2006 buildings of eight homes. Both are carport sections with the same club and the same Zone X result.

What Does It Cost to Sell a Trieste at Vasari Condo?

Selling a Trieste at Vasari condo in Bonita Springs typically costs the seller Florida documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100 of price, about $2,450.00 on the $350,000 median, the owner’s title policy by Lee County custom, any estoppel charges the contract assigns, prorated taxes and assessments, and the listing commission agreed with the brokerage.

The Deed Stamps

Florida’s documentary stamp tax on a deed is $0.70 per $100 of the price, so a $350,000 Trieste sale carries $2,450.00 in stamps (Florida Department of Revenue, documentary stamp tax). In Lee County the seller customarily pays them, and the contract controls.

Title and Closing

In Lee County the seller customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and often chooses the closing agent; the contract can say otherwise. The title search will pick up any recorded association lien, which must be paid at closing.

Estoppels, Approval and Prorations

The closing agent orders estoppel certificates from the condominium association and the master association, and in Trieste II those may come from a different management office than the village’s. Each may charge up to the statutory cap, $299 base plus $119 for expedited delivery and $179 if the account is delinquent under the current DBPR adjustment of the $250 base in section 718.116(8); who pays is set by the contract, and the certificate is due within 10 business days of a written request. The buyer applies for the condominium board’s approval, and the buyer pays the master association’s Resale Transfer Fee at closing; the association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member, which reads as that fee (our inference). Taxes, the CDD assessment and association dues are prorated to the closing day.

What the Seller Does Not Pay

Under the master declaration the Resale Transfer Fee falls on the buyer, and the condominium application fee is charged per applicant, the buyer’s side. The seller does not pay a club initiation fee, because Vasari’s bundled membership has none.

What Are the Pros and Cons of Owning in Trieste at Vasari?

Owning in Trieste at Vasari in Bonita Springs brings bundled club membership with the lowest CDD line in Vasari, seven plan choices, shaded Zone X, two-story buildings outside the milestone and SIRS triggers, and association-kept exteriors; it also brings carport-only parking, a $13,601.02 master fee in 2026 plus quarterly dues, approval of every sale and lease, fewer recent sales, and a market that has come down from its 2022 and 2023 peak.

The Pros

• The lowest CDD line in Vasari. $1,709.34 for fiscal 2026 and $1,463.77 proposed for fiscal 2027, with the bond line scheduled to end after the 2027 bill, assuming no new borrowing.
• Seven plan sizes. From 1,412 to 1,660 square feet, so a buyer can choose size within one village.
• Shaded Zone X at every sampled building. No base flood elevation and no special flood hazard area at the five buildings we queried.
• Two-story buildings. The milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study laws do not reach two-story buildings on this record.
• Exterior upkeep handled. The association keeps roofs, exterior walls, painting and carports, and pays pest control.
• No age restriction. Open to buyers of any age by the recorded declarations.
• A one-street village with its own pool area. Every home is on Corsia Trieste Way, beside the village’s 9.79-acre tract.

The Cons

• No garage. One assigned carport space per home; boats, golf carts, trailers and commercial vehicles must be garaged elsewhere.
• Two bedrooms only. Every Trieste home is two bedrooms on the roll.
• Documented dues. The master fee is $13,601.02 a year in 2026 and Trieste’s quarterly dues run $1,625 to $2,090; the estoppel confirms them for an address, and what condominium dues include is not verified.
• Approval of every sale and lease. Board approval with 20 days’ notice, an interview option and per-applicant fees.
• Leasing limits. 30-day minimum, six leases a year, one year maximum.
• Thin recent record. Six recorded sales in 12 months, so prices are set from a short list of comparables.
• Older buildings in I and II. Trieste I and II date from 2002 to 2004, so reserves for roofs and painting deserve a close read.
• Evacuation Zone B. Evacuation will often be required for a Gulf hurricane, per the county.

Trieste at Vasari’s Recent Sales, by the Numbers

In the last 24 months we tracked 10 recorded Trieste at Vasari sales to September 25, 2026, at a $350,000 median, from $272,500 to $405,000, with $3,531,500 in total recorded value. Five were in Trieste II, three in Trieste III and two in Trieste I; seven were ground-floor homes and three upper-floor. In the last 12 months we tracked six of those sales, $1,991,500 in recorded value. Over 60 months we tracked 33 recorded sales at a $425,000 median. The Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 21, 2026 adds, over 24 months, 11 Trieste closings with a median 64 days on market and a median sale-to-list ratio of 94.3%; medians hide a wide range.

Selling in Trieste Is Different in Five Ways

1. Board approval is part of the timeline. Each declaration requires written board approval with at least 20 days’ notice before closing, so the application goes in as soon as the contract is signed.
2. Seven plans, few exact comparables. With six recorded sales in the last 12 months spread across several plans, we price your home from the same plan first, then the neighbors on either side of it in size.
3. Trieste III is its own market. The 2007 buildings and their 1,461 and 1,603 square foot plans need their own comparables, not the 2002 to 2004 buildings’.
4. No sign in the yard. The declarations bar For Sale and Open House signs without the club reviewer’s consent, and the village covenants bar realtor signs, so the marketing is online, by database and by appointment through the gate.
5. Two management offices. Trieste II’s association uses a different registered agent and office than the village and the other two condominiums, so we order every estoppel the day the contract is signed.

What is my Trieste at Vasari condo worth today?

Your Trieste condo’s value starts from Trieste’s own recorded sales: ten in the 24 months to September 25, 2026 at a $350,000 median, from $272,500 to $405,000. Your condominium, plan, floor, condition and lanai view move it within that range, and we price it sale by sale.

How long does a Trieste at Vasari sale take?

The Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 21, 2026 shows a median of 64 days on market across 11 Trieste closings in 24 months, a window used because 12 months is thin; medians hide a wide range. The recorded steps set a floor on the timeline: the board’s approval needs at least 20 days’ notice before closing and can take up to 20 days after a complete application, so start the application the day the contract is signed.

Do I need the condominium board’s approval to sell?

Yes. Each Trieste declaration requires the board’s prior written approval of every sale. The board may interview the buyer and must decide within 20 days of a complete application or 60 days of notice, whichever comes first.

Can I sell my Trieste condo with a tenant in it?

Yes, if the lease was approved. A Trieste lease runs at most one year and the buyer takes the home subject to it unless the contract and the lease say otherwise. The buyer’s own approval and any new lease still go through the board.

Should I update my Trieste condo before I sell?

Most Trieste homes date to 2002 to 2004, so buyers compare kitchens, baths, flooring, air conditioning age and windows. Any change needs board approval, and hard flooring upstairs needs a sound underlayment, so ask us which updates pay before starting any.

Frequently Asked Questions: Trieste at Vasari Buyer Edition

These Trieste at Vasari buyer questions are answered from the recorded declarations, the Lee County roll and recorded sales, the Vasari CDD budget, FEMA’s flood layer and the club’s own Q&A, as read in October 2026 for this Bonita Springs condominium village inside Vasari Country Club.

What is Trieste at Vasari?

Trieste at Vasari is a village of three recorded condominiums, Trieste I, II and III at Vasari, inside Vasari Country Club in Bonita Springs, Florida. It holds 108 two-bedroom, two-bath homes in ten two-story buildings of eight and twelve, built 2002 to 2007, with one carport space per home and bundled club membership.

Is Trieste at Vasari the same as Trieste Preserve?

No. Trieste Preserve is a separate, newer group of single-family homes on Divot Drive in Bonita Springs, built from 2023 on according to the county building layer. Trieste at Vasari is the 2002 to 2007 condominium village on Corsia Trieste Way inside the Vasari Country Club gate. Trieste at Bay Colony is a different condominium again, in Naples.

Where is Trieste at Vasari?

Every Trieste home is on Corsia Trieste Way inside Vasari Country Club, whose gate is off Imperial Parkway about a mile south of Bonita Beach Road and just east of I-75 Exit 116. The village sits on Tract D of Vasari Country Club Unit One, Plat Book 70.

How many homes are in Trieste at Vasari?

There are 108: 40 in Trieste I, 44 in Trieste II and 24 in Trieste III. The three declarations, the village covenants, the Florida condominium register and the county roll all agree on 108.

How big are Trieste at Vasari condos?

County heated area runs from 1,412 to 1,660 square feet across seven plans: 1,412, 1,450, 1,551, 1,651 and 1,660 in Trieste I and II, and 1,461 and 1,603 in Trieste III. Every home has two bedrooms and two baths on the roll; listing living areas can differ.

Do Trieste condos have garages?

No. Each home has one assigned covered carport space as a limited common element, and no home may hold more than one. Boats, golf carts, trailers and commercial vehicles must be kept in an enclosed garage, so owners keep them off site.

Are some Trieste buildings bigger than others?

Yes. Seven of the ten buildings hold twelve homes each and three hold eight. Buildings 4 and 5 in Trieste I and Building 10 in Trieste II are the eight-home buildings; the rest, including both Trieste III buildings, hold twelve.

When was Trieste at Vasari built?

The county building layer dates three buildings to 2002, four to 2003, one to 2004 and the two Trieste III buildings to 2007. Trieste I was among Vasari’s first condominiums and Trieste III its last.

Who built Trieste at Vasari?

Taylor Woodrow Communities at Vasari, L.L.C. was the developer and declarant of all three Trieste condominiums and of the Trieste village covenants.

What do Trieste at Vasari condos sell for?

In the 24 months to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded 10 Trieste sales at a $350,000 median, from $272,500 to $405,000, or $230.09 per square foot of county heated area. Over 60 months, 33 sales closed at a $425,000 median.

Are Trieste prices going up or down?

Down from the 2022 and 2023 run. 2022’s eight recorded sales ran from $339,000 to $550,000, 2025’s five from $340,000 to $405,000, and 2026’s four, through September 25, from $272,500 to $340,000. Each of those years is too small for a median; the 24-month median is $350,000 on 10 sales.

Does the floor matter at Trieste?

Over 60 months upper-floor homes sold at a $457,500 median on 14 sales and ground-floor homes at $390,000 on 19, but most upper-floor sales fell in the 2022 and 2023 peak. Upper-floor homes must keep carpet or an approved sound underlayment under hard floors.

How many Trieste condos are for sale right now?

On October 21, 2026, the Southwest Florida MLS showed 3 active Trieste listings, from $329,000 to $425,000, which is 6.0 months of supply at the 12-month MLS pace of 6 closings (3 / (6/12)). See the current list on Domain Realty Group’s Trieste at Vasari page.

What are the HOA fees at Trieste at Vasari?

The association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a Master Association assessment of $13,601.02 a year, and its quarterly fee sheet lists Trieste I at $1,650, Trieste II at $2,090 and Trieste III at $1,625 a quarter; what condominium dues include is not verified. The Vasari CDD’s fiscal 2026 Trieste assessment is $1,709.34, the lowest in Vasari, proposed at $1,463.77 for fiscal 2027, on the county tax bill. The estoppel confirms the dues for an address.

What does the club membership include?

The club says membership and amenities are included with ownership, with no initiation fee and no food minimum, covering the 18-hole golf course, driving range, tennis, pickleball, bocce, clubhouse, the 24-hour manned gate and cable and internet service. Food, events, cart fees and lessons are billed on use.

Is there a pool at Trieste?

The record points to one. The village association’s 9.79-acre tract on Corsia Trieste Way carries a pool flag and a 2005 restroom building on the county record, and the village covenants set rules for the swimming pool. The club’s own pool area is part of the bundled membership.

What will I pay at closing when I buy?

The buyer pays the master association’s Resale Transfer Fee, which the association’s 2026 fee schedule lists as a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member (our inference that it is the same fee), the condominium’s application fee of up to $150 per applicant, the lender’s costs and prorated taxes, CDD and dues. In Lee County the seller customarily pays the owner’s title policy and deed stamps.

Is there a CDD at Trieste at Vasari?

Yes. The Vasari Community Development District bills each Trieste home $1,709.34 for fiscal 2026, $1,100.00 for operations and $609.34 for bond debt, on the November tax bill. The bonds mature May 1, 2027, so no debt line is scheduled after the fiscal 2027 bill, assuming no new borrowing.

Is Trieste at Vasari a 55+ community?

No. All three declarations say, “There is no restriction on the ages of occupants of units,” and the master declaration we read carries no age restriction.

Can I rent out a Trieste condo?

Yes, with limits: with association approval, for at least 30 days, no more than six times a calendar year and no more than one year per lease. Nightly and weekly rentals are not allowed.

Are pets allowed at Trieste?

Yes: up to two household pets such as a dog or cat, up to two caged birds and a reasonable number of tropical fish, leashed or carried outside, never left alone on a lanai and kept 25 feet from the swimming pool. Reptiles, amphibians, poultry and livestock are barred.

What flood zone is Trieste at Vasari in?

FEMA’s live layer returned shaded Zone X, the 0.2 percent annual chance area, with no base flood elevation, at five Trieste buildings on October 12, 2026, on panel 12071C0659G effective November 17, 2022.

Do I need flood insurance at Trieste?

A federally backed lender does not require it in Zone X. The association insures the buildings; the owner’s HO-6 covers the inside. Citizens’ 2027 flood rule exempts condominium unit-owner policies, per its page. Many owners still buy flood coverage, which the city’s CRS Class 5 discounts by 25 percent on NFIP policies.

Do the milestone inspection and SIRS laws apply to Trieste?

Not on the record. Both apply to buildings of three habitable stories or more, and every Trieste building is recorded at two stories. Florida’s reserve rules for roofs, painting and paving still apply to each association’s budget.

Does the condominium board have to approve me as a buyer?

Yes. Each declaration requires the board’s prior written approval of every sale. The board may interview the buyer and must decide within 20 days of a complete application or 60 days of the seller’s notice, whichever comes first.

Can I put tile or wood floors in an upstairs Trieste condo?

Only with the board’s written approval and a sound-absorbent underlayment. The declarations otherwise require wall-to-wall carpet over padding in upper-floor homes outside kitchens, baths and laundry rooms.

Can I enclose my lanai or install shutters?

Not without approval. A lanai may not be carpeted, covered or enclosed without board approval, and shutters must meet the board’s specifications, which follow the club’s Architectural Review Committee.

Does every Trieste association have to post its documents online?

Trieste I and II, with 40 and 44 units, are over Florida’s 25-unit threshold for posting official records on a website or app. Trieste III, with 24 units, is under it, so ask its manager for the documents directly; every owner keeps the right to inspect them.

What schools serve Trieste at Vasari?

The district lookup at three Trieste buildings returns South Zone 3: elementary zone Q, middle zone GG and high school South Zone 3, whose high schools are Bonita Springs, Estero and South Fort Myers. Run the exact address in the district tool.

How is Trieste different from Matera?

Both are carport sections. Trieste has 108 homes in buildings of eight and twelve, seven plans, built 2002 to 2007, and the lowest Vasari CDD line, $1,709.34. Matera at Vasari has 128 homes in buildings of eight, mostly one 1,467 square foot plan, built 2004 to 2006, and a $1,969.38 CDD line.

Will I get my asking price?

The Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 21, 2026 shows a median sale-to-list ratio of 94.3% across 11 Trieste closings in 24 months; medians hide a wide range. The county record shows the closing prices; eight of the last ten fell between $299,000 and $400,000, which is the band a typical Trieste list price competes in.

Is now a good time to sell a Trieste condo?

The record shows 2026’s four sales, to September 25, from $272,500 to $340,000, against 2022’s eight from $339,000 to $550,000; both years are too small for a median. Whether to sell now depends on your plans and carrying costs; we lay out the numbers for your home.

How does the 2022 and 2023 peak affect my price?

Buyers price from the last 24 months, not 2022. A Trieste home bought in 2022 or 2023 near $500,000 faces a market whose recent sales top out at $405,000, so we show those sellers the comparables before listing.

Does the floor change my price?

The 60-month record favors the upper floor, $457,500 against $390,000, but most upper-floor sales fell in the peak. In the last 24 months the three upper-floor sales were $405,000, $375,000 and $340,000, and the seven ground-floor sales ran $272,500 to $400,000.

Does my plan size change my price?

Usually. The two highest sales of the last 24 months were a 1,603 square foot Trieste III home at $405,000 and a 1,603 at $400,000, alongside a 1,660 at $400,000, while the lowest was a 1,461 at $272,500. Plan, condition and timing work together, so we compare your home with its own plan first.

Is Trieste III priced differently from Trieste I and II?

Trieste III’s 2007 buildings are newer and carry their own two plans; its three sales in the last 24 months were $405,000, $400,000 and $272,500. Over 60 months its 9 sales had a $425,000 median, between Trieste II’s $400,000 and Trieste I’s $435,000.

Who are my competitors as a Trieste seller?

Other Trieste listings first, then Matera, the other carport section, which sold at a $332,500 median over 12 months, and smaller Toscana homes at the top of Trieste’s range.

What does it cost to sell my Trieste home?

Florida deed stamps at $0.70 per $100, about $2,450.00 on a $350,000 sale, the owner’s title policy by Lee County custom, any estoppel charges the contract assigns, prorations and the listing commission agreed with the brokerage.

Who pays the Resale Transfer Fee?

The buyer. The master declaration lets the board set a Resale Transfer Fee paid by the buyer at closing; the association’s 2026 fee schedule lists a $12,000 capital contribution for a buyer new to Vasari and $6,000 for an existing member, which reads as that fee (our inference). We confirm the amount for your address with the master association at listing.

Who pays for the estoppel certificates?

The contract decides. Each association may charge up to the statutory cap: a $250 base under section 718.116(8), now $299 under DBPR’s adjustment, plus $119 for expedited delivery and $179 if delinquent; an association may charge less, and the certificate is due within 10 business days of a written request.

Why might my estoppels come from two different offices?

On the state records, the village association, Trieste I and Trieste III share one management company, while Trieste II lists a different registered agent and office as of April 2026. A Trieste II seller’s condominium estoppel may come from one office and the village’s from another, so we order both at once.

Do I need the board’s approval to sell?

Yes. Each declaration requires the condominium board’s prior written approval of every sale, with at least 20 days’ notice before closing.

How long does board approval take?

The board must decide within 20 days after your notice and any information or interview it requests, or within 60 days of your notice, whichever comes first.

What happens if the board disapproves my buyer?

The board must then deliver, within 30 days, the name of an approved buyer who will purchase at the same price and on substantially the same terms, or at an appraised fair market value if there was no contract.

Can I sell to a buyer who will rent the home?

Yes. The buyer’s leases will need approval and must meet the 30-day minimum, six-lease yearly cap and one-year maximum, so we share those rules with investor buyers up front.

Can I sell with a tenant in place?

Yes, if the lease was approved. A Trieste lease cannot run more than one year, so the remaining term is short, and the buyer takes the home subject to it unless the contract and lease provide otherwise.

Can I put a For Sale sign on my Trieste condo?

No, not without the club reviewer’s written consent, which the declarations require, and the village covenants bar realtor signs without the village board’s consent and ARC permission. Trieste homes are marketed online, through our buyer database and by appointment through the gate.

What documents should I gather before listing?

Your deed, the condominium and village documents as amended, the current budgets and rules, recent association statements, your HO-6 policy, any wind mitigation report, permits for any work, and approvals for any flooring or alteration. We order the estoppels.

Should I update my Trieste condo before selling?

Updates that buyers compare, such as flooring, kitchen and bath finishes and air conditioning, can help, but every alteration needs board approval and upstairs hard floors need a sound underlayment. Ask us which updates pay before you start.

Does my upstairs hard floor need paperwork?

Yes. If you installed tile or wood upstairs, keep the board’s written approval and proof of the sound underlayment. Without approval, the declaration lets the board require carpet over it or removal, which a buyer’s attorney will ask about.

Do I need a permit history?

Buyers and their inspectors ask for permits on air conditioning, water heater, windows and doors. Trieste is in the City of Bonita Springs, so permits come from the city; we pull the history for your address before listing.

How do I describe my square footage?

We quote the county heated area beside the listing figure: 1,412, 1,450, 1,551, 1,651 or 1,660 square feet in Trieste I and II, and 1,461 or 1,603 in Trieste III. Trieste buyers compare these exact plans.

Does my flood zone help my sale?

Yes. FEMA’s layer returned shaded Zone X with no base flood elevation at every Trieste building we queried, and lenders do not require flood insurance there. We state the zone and panel in the listing.

Do the condo safety laws affect my sale?

Trieste’s two-story buildings are outside the milestone inspection and SIRS triggers, which apply at three habitable stories. Buyers still ask about reserves, roofs and painting on the 2002 to 2004 buildings, so we request the association’s budget and reserve schedule early.

What happens to my club membership when I sell?

Membership passes with the title: the buyer becomes a Class A member of the club, and you stop being one. The club’s bundled model has no equity or initiation refund to collect.

How do I handle the CDD at closing?

The fiscal 2026 Trieste CDD assessment of $1,709.34 is on the November tax bill, so it is prorated with the property taxes at closing. The proposed fiscal 2027 figure is $1,463.77, and buyers like hearing that the debt line is scheduled to end.

Can I sell my Trieste home furnished?

Yes. Furniture is negotiated in the contract or a separate bill of sale; the deed and recorded price cover the real estate.

Can I sell my Trieste home while living out of state?

Yes. The board approval, estoppels and closing can be handled remotely, and the hurricane-season duty to name a caretaker continues until closing, so keep that arrangement in place.

Who should list my Trieste at Vasari home?
