Golf-community real estate in Fort Myers is not one type of ownership. Buyers can encounter private clubs, neighborhood associations, condominium communities, golf-oriented lifestyle communities and properties where club membership is completely separate from home ownership.
The right search should compare more than the house and golf course. Membership structure, HOA or condominium obligations, initiation requirements, assessments, amenities, maintenance responsibilities and how you plan to use the community can all affect the decision.
The listings above use a broad Fort Myers search. They should not be interpreted as a complete or exclusive list of homes located inside golf or country club communities.
