Lennar has not released prices or fees for Daniels Creek. Anyone quoting exact numbers today is guessing. Here's the best reference we have and what to ask when prices come out.
The best price reference: Timber Creek next door
Timber Creek, built by Lennar directly across Daniels Parkway, is the closest comparison: same corridor and a similar new-construction product. Resale numbers from the MLS for the 12 months ending June 2026:
| Timber Creek resales | 12 months to June 2026 |
|---|---|
| Homes sold | 87 |
| Average sale price | $545,000 |
| Average price per square foot | $179 |
| Share of list price received | 97% |
New homes from a builder often come with incentives, such as help with closing costs or a lower interest rate through the builder's lender. That can make the real cost different from the sticker price, so compare the full package, not only the price.
What is a CDD?
A Community Development District (CDD) is a special district created under Chapter 190 of the Florida Statutes. It borrows money through bonds to build roads, water, drainage and other infrastructure, and homeowners repay it through an assessment that appears on the yearly property tax bill. A CDD bill usually has two parts: the debt (bond) portion, which ends when the bonds are paid off, and an operations and maintenance portion, which continues.
Timber Creek has a CDD, and so does Gateway, through the Gateway Services Community Development District. Plan for a CDD at Daniels Creek until Lennar confirms otherwise.
What is the HOA?
The homeowners association is separate from the CDD. It charges monthly or quarterly dues for things like common area upkeep, amenities and sometimes services such as cable or internet. Lennar will publish the HOA amount when sales open.
Questions to ask when prices come out
- What is the base price, and what does the homesite premium add?
- What is the yearly CDD assessment, and how much of it is debt vs. maintenance? Can the debt portion be paid off early?
- What are HOA dues, and what do they include?
- What incentives are offered, and do they require the builder's lender?
- What deposit is required, and when is it refundable?
- What is the estimated total property tax bill, including the CDD?
When numbers are released, I'll post them on the updates page and send them to everyone on the list.
