Reunion Resort, Osceola County
Understand your Reunion build budget, from land and construction to pools and furnishings. Find suitable lots and connect with builders through Top Villas.
The cost of your Reunion home depends on the lot, size, design and finish specification. Pools, outdoor kitchens, themed bedrooms and entertainment spaces also shape the budget, so homes with similar square footage can have very different construction costs.
We help you explore suitable homesites and connect with builders to develop a proposal around your plans. Your builder’s estimate should clearly identify the work included, finish allowances and separately priced items. Bring those figures together with land, professional fees, furnishings and holding costs to understand the complete investment.
Plan for the complete investment, from purchasing your lot to furnishing the finished home. Confirm which costs your builder includes.
Land and Closing Costs
Include the homesite purchase price, closing costs, surveys and checks needed before buying.
Design and Site Preparation
Budget for architecture, engineering, ground assessments, grading, drainage and utility connections.
Construction and Approvals
Include the agreed build specification, finish allowances, permits and applicable community review fees.
Pool and Outdoor Living
Allow for your pool, spa, decking, landscaping and outdoor kitchen. Confirm what is included in the construction price.
Furnishings and Entertainment
Budget for furniture, window treatments, themed bedrooms, cinema equipment and other features needed to complete the home.
Holding Costs and Contingency
Allow for financing, taxes, association charges and insurance during construction, plus a reserve for unforeseen costs.
For initial planning, a mid-tier builder has quoted $450 to $500 per square foot for a custom home in Reunion Resort. Some builders quote below this level, while others charge more, depending on the design, construction quality, finish specification and features included.
Using that quoted range gives these indicative construction budgets:
| Aspect | At $450 per sq ft | At $500 per sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| 4,000 sq ft | $1,800,000 | $2,000,000 |
| 6,000 sq ft | $2,700,000 | $3,000,000 |
| 8,000 sq ft | $3,600,000 | $4,000,000 |
| 10,000 sq ft | $4,500,000 | $5,000,000 |
These figures illustrate construction costs using one builder’s quoted range. Your complete investment also needs to account for land and any excluded costs, such as design fees, site preparation, pools, furnishings and financing.
Before comparing quotes, confirm whether the rate applies to air-conditioned living space or total area under roof, and request a clear list of inclusions and allowances.
Some items may already be included in your builder’s proposal. Check the scope before adding separate allowances.
Before buying land in Reunion Resort, confirm that the homesite can accommodate your proposed home, pool and outdoor spaces. Lot dimensions, setbacks, architectural requirements and site conditions can affect both the design and the construction budget.
