SW FL's Best Kept Secret | New Homes | Charlotte County

A lot of new home buyers (and most Realtors) are in the habit of  looking for new homes in subdivisions.  They are easy to spot as the land is being cleared, and it's easier for the builders to promote subdivisions as a group of homes with similar amenities.

DR Horton is taking a bit different approach and is offering what I think is one of the best kept secrets in new homes in Sarasota or Charlotte Counties.

DR Horton New Homes South Gulf Cove

During the real estate downturn, South Gulf Cove in Charlotte County was hard hit with foreclosures. Many vacant single family lots dropped drastically in value.

DR Horton is now building brand new single family homes on 10,000 sq. ft. and larger lots on saltwater canals (lock access to the Myakka River/Charlotte Harbor) starting at $185,000, without private pool.

South Gulf Cove has a voluntary HOA.  A similar home in one of DR Horton's subdivisions would start at $250,000 with HOA fee, without boating access.

Please contact me for a list of currently available finished new construction, in constuction, and pre-construction opportunities from DR Horton in South Gulf Cove.

Location: South Gulf Cove, FL, USA

Here is a fascinating graphic comparison of advertising on Facebook versus Google, which you can read here:  http://bit.ly/JHJ5LR So why am I blogging about this? As much as many in the real estate industry in Sarasota want to deny it, the days of Open Houses, magazine ads, and newspaper cl
