★ Osceola County specifics

What matters for this in Osceola County

Osceola's school and road capacity, and the impact fees attached to them, are a real line in any subdivision budget here.

Osceola's water and sewer mostly come from Toho Water Authority, and whether Toho can serve a lot (and what it charges to connect) is one of the first answers we get in writing. Osceola also carries some of the highest impact fees in our eight counties, which belongs in the budget before you buy.

100%Credited

100% fee credit toward construction

When you build your home, ADU or garage with Brightview Homes, every dollar you paid Brightview for due diligence, entitlements and demolition coordination is credited back against your construction agreement. Pre-construction fees are credited in full against the construction contract price at signing.

  1. Applies to full-cycle building agreements (a home on your lot or custom home, a turnkey ADU, or a custom detached multi-car garage or workshop) with a contract value of $100,000 or more.
  2. Fees are earned as each filing, audit or field visit is completed and are not refundable. The credit is applied against the final construction draw or the pre-construction contract balance, never paid out in cash.
  3. Credits stay valid for 12 months from delivery of the completed work or permit closeout.

The credit covers Brightview's fees. Surveyor, engineer, attorney and government fees are paid directly to those providers and are not part of the credit.
