New Single-Family Homes Planned in Orlando Housing Market

While some developers may be holding back in light of a weak Florida housing market, others are going full speed ahead.

On on Thursday, Avatar Properties Inc. introduced six new plans for single-family home buyers at Solivita in Poinciana.

The active-adult community in the Orlando housing market now offers buyers 24 plans, 20 of which are what Avatar calls detached single-family homes and the remaining four the company calls attached homes. The homes range from the upper $100,000s to more than $500,000, Avatar says.

Four new plans are available as part of Solivita’s Keys Grande Collection, featuring two- and three-bedroom homes ranging from 1,285 to 1,625 square feet. Home prices range $194,900 to $227,900.

The two other plans, meanwhile, were added to Solivita’s Gulfshore Collection, featuring two- and three-bedroom plans between 1,545 to 2,008 square feet. Prices on those homes range from $245,900 to $277,900 for prospective Florida mortgage borrowers.

Solivita has recorded more than 3,200 sales since it opened six years ago, Solivita Vice President and General Manager Rick Woodley said in a prepared statement.
