The Register-First Rule
Why Register Own Luxury Homes® Before Your First Builder Contact
The builder's sales agent works for the builder. They are not your advocate. Own Luxury Homes® is — and the builder pays our commission (2–3% of the sale price).
Register early → Builder pays Own Luxury Homes® → You get: contract review, incentive negotiation, upgrade ROI guidance, lot selection, and construction inspections. Cost to you: $0.
Visit without registering → Builder keeps the commission → You have no professional advocate. Cost to you: $10,000–$15,000+ on a $500K home.

Ryan Brown — Principal Broker & CEO, FL BK3626873Every GT USA buyer who walks into the sales center without a registered agent is leaving money on the table. The commission is 2–3% of the sale price — on a $500K home, that's $10,000–$15,000 the builder keeps instead of using it to advocate for you. Register Own Luxury Homes® first.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Wellness Way corridor in Clermont FL?
Wellness Way is a 15,000+ acre planned mixed-use development corridor in Clermont, Lake County FL, anchored by the future Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) health campus and several new master-planned residential communities. The corridor runs along the Olympus development near US-27 and FL-50, approximately 20-25 minutes from Disney World and 30-35 minutes from the I-4 corridor. Communities in the corridor include Del Webb Lakehaven, Esplanade at McKinnon Groves, Hickory Groves, Panther Run, Integra Heights, Lakehaven Estates, Parkside Trails, Reflections at Olympus, and Wellness Ridge. Ryan Brown · FL BK3626873.
Is Wellness Way a good place to buy in 2026?
Wellness Way and the Clermont/Olympus corridor offer new construction in a market that is 20-25 minutes from Disney World, has significant infrastructure investment underway (Olympus development, US-27 widening, new Lake County schools), and has lower price points than comparable Orlando/Orange County communities. Lake County has no CDD in most Wellness Way communities (check with OLH for each specific community), which reduces monthly cost of ownership. Ryan Brown · FL BK3626873 covers all active Wellness Way builders.
What builders are active in Wellness Way FL?
Active builders in the Wellness Way/Olympus corridor include: Del Webb (Lakehaven), Taylor Morrison (Esplanade at McKinnon Groves), David Weekley Homes, Pulte Homes, GT USA, Richland Communities, and Lennar. Each builder has different registration requirements — Own Luxury Homes® must be registered before your first builder contact. Ryan Brown · FL BK3626873.
Do I need a buyer's agent for new construction in Wellness Way?
You are not required to use a buyer's agent for new construction in Wellness Way, but the builder's sales agent works for the builder, not you. Own Luxury Homes® buyer representation in Wellness Way is free — the builder pays our commission. We provide independent contract review, upgrade selection guidance, school district verification, and CDD/HOA cost analysis at no cost to you. Ryan Brown · FL BK3626873.
