In new-home construction, many builders will low-ball their base price then surprise you with expensive upgrades. At Sposen Signature Homes we believe in delivering excellent standard features and only presenting meaningful upgrades — so your budget works harder. Here’s how we do value engineering the right way.
Few features capture the Southwest Florida lifestyle quite like pocketing glass slider doors. These expansive glass doors open wide to create an uninterrupted flow between your indoor living area and your lanai, letting you fully embrace Florida’s year-round sunshine.
Unlike traditional sliding doors—where one panel simply slides in front of another—pocketing sliders tuck neatly into a niche in the exterior wall, disappearing from indoor view when opened. This creates a smooth, open transition and a true indoor-outdoor connection that defines modern coastal living.
When you picture your future home, you probably imagine the kitchen layout, lanai, or pool. But before any of those dreams take shape, your home’s placement starts with three essential pieces of land surveying: plats, property lines, and setbacks. These factors determine where your home can be built, protect your investment, and ensure your property meets local codes in Lee County and across Southwest Florida.

Buying a lot in Cape Coral is exciting, but before you can break out the blueprints for your dream home, you’ve got to deal with what’s already growing there. A patch of pines or palms might be a future shady retreat, or it might be an invasive troublemaker that has to go. The trick is knowing which trees to keep, which to clear, and which ones the city won’t even let you touch. A little knowledge now can save you from big headaches later.
Cape Coral isn’t just growing; it’s transforming into one of Southwest Florida’s most exciting destinations.
Of course, with rapid growth comes a few growing pains… from busier roads to complaints about the city feeling “too crowded.” But that’s also a sign of a community on the rise. With new parks, dining, entertainment, and infrastructure projects on the horizon, Cape Coral is actively building the amenities needed to match its momentum.
If you’ve been thinking about making the move, here are five upcoming amenities that are set to make Cape Coral the ultimate place to live, play, and build your dream home.
When you think about building a new home in Southwest Florida, elevation is usually top of mind. After all, flood zones and storm risk play a huge role in how and where homes are built. But if your lot isn’t connected to city utilities and requires a septic system instead, there’s another piece of the puzzle many people overlook until late in the process: the percolation, or “perc,” test.
A perc test doesn’t directly set the required elevation for your home, but it does play a key role in septic-dependent areas. The space and drainage needs of your septic design can influence the elevation, cost, and construction approach for your home.
When you picture building a new home, it’s easy to focus on the floor plan, finishes, and outdoor space. But behind every dream home is the unseen infrastructure that makes it all possible: utilities. Among the most important, and sometimes misunderstood, is electric service.
If you’re buying a vacant lot in Southwest Florida, knowing how electric hookups work can save you from unexpected costs and delays once it’s time to build.
Designing a new home means making hundreds of exciting decisions. But few impact your day-to-day life as much as your kitchen layout. And we believe one of the most important choices is how you want your cooking setup to work.
Wall oven or range? It’s more than just a design preference, it’s about how you cook, how you move, and how your kitchen supports your lifestyle. The good news? We don’t make you pick from a set mold. We offer the flexibility to choose the layout that best suits your needs.
Here’s a closer look at the pros and cons of both options, so you can build a kitchen that works your way.
If you’ve read recent national headlines, you may have seen some concerning claims about the housing market in Cape Coral. One article from the Wall Street Journal even dubbed it the “worst housing market in America.” That kind of statement is bound to raise eyebrows, but is it the full story?
Let’s take a closer look at what’s really happening in our market, and why Cape Coral continues to be a smart long-term investment, especially for those looking to build a new home.
