Florida New Construction

New Construction Homes in Florida

Pre-construction and move-in ready homes from vetted Florida builders, structured for buyers who live outside the United States. You do not need a Social Security number, U.S. credit history, or residency to buy — you need the right structure and someone reading the builder contract on your side of the table.

Why buyers abroad choose new construction

The warranty is the point

A new home comes with a structural warranty and everything under it is new — roof, HVAC, plumbing, appliances. For a buyer who lives abroad and cannot inspect a problem in person, that removes the single largest source of unplanned cost in the first years.

Built for the rental it will become

Communities in the Central Florida corridors are designed around rental performance: HOA-managed amenities, on-site management, and layouts that sleep more guests. That is a different product from a resale house that happens to be for rent.

Price fixed today, delivered later

Pre-construction locks the price at contract while the home is delivered months later. In a rising market that gap is equity before the first payment. In a flat market it is simply a known number, which is worth its own kind of certainty.

Builder incentives are negotiable

Builders move inventory with rate buy-downs, closing cost credits and design allowances rather than headline price cuts. These are rarely advertised and are the part of the deal where representation actually pays for itself.

Where we buy

Questions buyers ask before signing

Can a foreign national buy new construction in Florida?

Yes. There is no citizenship or residency requirement to buy real estate in the United States. A foreign buyer can purchase new construction in Florida in their own name, through an LLC, or through a trust. You will need a passport and, depending on the structure, an ITIN for tax reporting.

How much deposit does a Florida builder require?

Builders in Florida typically ask for 10% to 20% of the purchase price as an earnest money deposit, often split between contract signing and construction milestones. Some builders require a higher deposit from international buyers. The exact amount is set in the builder contract and should be confirmed before you sign.

Can I finance a new construction home as a foreign buyer?

Yes. Foreign national loan programs and DSCR loans are available in Florida and do not require a Social Security number or U.S. credit history. Down payment is typically 25% to 30% and the loan is underwritten on the property's rental income rather than your personal income. Approval and rates depend on the lender and the property.

How long does new construction take to deliver in Florida?

Delivery usually runs from 6 to 14 months depending on the builder, the community, and whether the home is already under construction. Pre-construction purchases take longer but are priced lower. Move-in ready inventory homes close in weeks rather than months.

Can I rent out a new construction home short-term?

It depends on the community, not on the house. Some Florida communities are zoned and built for short-term rental, others prohibit rentals under six months or a year through HOA rules. This single rule decides whether the investment works for vacation rental income, so it must be confirmed for the specific community before purchase.

What are the closing costs on new construction in Florida?

Closing costs generally run between 2% and 5% of the purchase price, covering title insurance, recording fees, taxes and lender fees where financing is used. On new construction some of these are paid by the builder. Property taxes and HOA fees are ongoing costs that should be modelled separately.
