I agree with Bill. You have to talk with a sales rep. and have him describe the differences or upgrades that are included in the homes. Bump-outs, tile floors, granite countertops, upgraded appliances all affect the purchase price of the home. The biggest influence in home price is going to be the price of the lot.

An interior lot with back-to-back lanai's is going to be the least expensive. Go to a corner lot that generally is larger, up goes the price. Go to a view lot or pick a golf front lot on a cul-de-sac that has because of it's pie-shape size with a large frontage on the golf course and you are looking at spending $150,000 or more for the lot. So that Begonia on an interior lot you mentioned is $256K. Put that same lot on an attractive golf front lot and you are over $400K.

Take your time, look at lots and lots of homes, new and pre-owned and determine what will work for you and your wallet.
