The Tax and CDD Math

What the Numbers Actually Mean

On a $500K home, Del Webb Oasis saves $262/year in property taxes vs Sunbridge (Orange vs Osceola). Over 20 years: $5,240. However, Oasis carries a $40/month higher HOA. Over 20 years that costs $9,600 more. Net 20-year financial picture: Del Webb Sunbridge is approximately $4,360 less expensive in pure HOA + tax terms at $500K before CDD differences are applied. CDD amounts are comparable between both communities, so that variable roughly cancels.

The honest financial verdict. These two communities cost within $20–$60/month of each other at comparable price points when HOA, CDD, and county taxes are all included. The financial argument for choosing one over the other is weak. The decision should be made on location, community culture, and specific home availability — not on the mistaken belief that one is meaningfully cheaper than the other. Anyone telling you Sunbridge is dramatically cheaper or Oasis is dramatically more expensive has not done the full math.

The Location Decision

What Actually Separates These Communities

Del Webb Sunbridge wins on: Lake Toho access and the St. Cloud outdoor recreation corridor. Proximity to Lake Nona Medical City (25 minutes vs Oasis’s 30–35). A growing eastern St. Cloud community with new commercial infrastructure. Lower base home prices for equivalent floor plans. The established St. Cloud community identity with genuine small-city character.

Del Webb Oasis wins on: Disney proximity — 15–20 minutes via SR-429 vs 40–45 minutes for Sunbridge. The SR-429 corridor for all daily driving — limited-access highway vs surface roads to I-4. AdventHealth Winter Garden 10 minutes away. The Horizon West infrastructure — one of the best-developed suburban corridors in the metro. Premium Orange County address for buyers for whom that matters.

The decision question: Do you care more about the Disney/SR-429 access corridor (Oasis), or the Lake Nona/outdoor recreation corridor (Sunbridge)? That question answers itself for most buyers quickly once framed that clearly. Both communities deliver comparable Del Webb quality and cost structure. The location is the real differentiator.
