What I check for every Courtyards buyer.
Phase timing
Epcon has promoted a VIP list for Phase III in early 2027. Early phases often price lower than later ones. I’ll tell you which homesites are actually open.
The real monthly cost
HOA, initiation fee, taxes and insurance together. Two homes at the same price can carry very different monthly costs.
Your sale first
Most buyers here are downsizing. I time your sale to your closing so you move once. See what your home is worth.
Epcon has a sales team. You deserve your own advocate.
