Act Before Sales Open

Register With Us Before You Step Into Any Sales Office.

Kingston's model homes open late 2026. The moment a sales office opens, builder reps are working to represent the builder's interests — not yours. If you walk in without naming a buyer's agent first, you may permanently forfeit your right to independent representation.

Our commission is paid by the builder. Your representation costs you nothing.

Why The Borg Group

Mark Borg Has a Construction Background.

Most agents hand you over to the builder after contract. Mark stays active through the build. He can read a structure, ask the right questions on a site visit, and catch framing, grading, and rough-in issues before the drywall goes up — things that are expensive to fix and invisible to a buyer without construction experience.

About the Community

Southwest Florida's Most Ambitious
Master-Planned Community

Kingston is in a class of its own. Spanning more than 7,600 acres along eastern Corkscrew Road in Estero — east of Verdana Village and stretching toward SR-82 — Kingston is the largest and most transformative master-planned community ever introduced to Southwest Florida.

Developed by Cameratta Companies, the Estero-based family firm behind The Place at Corkscrew and Corkscrew Shores, Kingston represents decades of local expertise applied to a generational vision. The community will deliver approximately 10,000 residences and nearly 700,000 square feet of commercial space.

New Construction Buyer Representation

6 Reasons You Need a Buyer's Agent
Before You Walk Into Kingston

And keep reading to see why it should be us — not just any agent.

Reason 1

You Must Name Your Agent Before You Visit

In Florida, the moment you walk into a builder's sales office without naming a buyer's agent, you may permanently forfeit your right to independent representation at that community. It doesn't matter if you haven't signed anything yet.

Reason 2

First-Phase Strategy Requires Local Knowledge

In large master-planned communities, the first phases often offer the best pricing — but not always the best lots. Understanding which homesites position well for long-term value takes local knowledge that doesn't come from the builder's sales sheet.

Reason 3

Builder Incentives Are Negotiation Tools

Closing cost credits, design center allowances, and rate buydowns are not gifts — they're sales tools the builder deploys strategically. Knowing when an incentive is available requires experience working deals across multiple builders in this market.

Reason 4

Builder Contracts Protect the Builder

Every builder contract is written by the builder's legal team to protect the builder's interests. Your contingency rights, cancellation terms, and what happens if the builder delays are all in that document — and won't be explained to you by the builder's agent.

Reason 5

Independent Financing Means Real Comparison

Builders push buyers toward preferred lenders because it streamlines the transaction for them. That lender may not offer the best rate or terms available to you. We help you compare financing options independently.

Reason 6

Build-Out Takes Time — You Need Someone Who Stays

Kingston won't be built overnight. Walk-throughs, punch lists, framing inspections, builder delays, and closing day logistics all come after the paperwork. You need a representative who stays engaged from contract to keys.

So why The Borg Group — and not just any agent?

Any licensed agent can technically represent you in new construction. What sets The Borg Group apart is active new construction discipline. Mark stays on-site through the build. He knows what to look at during a frame walk, what questions to ask the site supervisor, and what the builder should be held to — because his background includes construction, not just sales.

We Stay With You

From contract to closing: frame walk reviews, builder milestone check-ins, punch list support, and closing day coordination — all the way through to the day you get your keys.

Infrastructure & Growth

The Eastern Corkscrew Corridor
Is Being Built for Kingston's Future

Kingston is not just a residential development — it is the catalyst for a fundamental transformation of the eastern Estero corridor. Lee County, the Village of Estero, and FDOT are all actively investing in roads, intersections, and infrastructure that will serve this community for decades.

Multiple publicly funded projects are under construction or approved that directly serve the Kingston area.

Corkscrew Road Widening — Phase 2

A ~$27 million road widening project actively under construction in the eastern Estero corridor, with completion expected by late 2026. Adds a 10-foot-wide shared-use path on the south side and a 6-foot sidewalk on the north.

Kingston Village Parkway to SR-82

A new Kingston Village Parkway will connect Corkscrew Road directly to SR-82. The new intersection signal is targeted for Fall 2026, with full SR-82 connectivity expected Winter 2027/2028.

Alico Road Extension

Lee County approved a $26.8 million contract in May 2025 to extend Alico Road westward through the Corkscrew corridor, construction beginning mid-2026. This new east-west connector reduces travel times to Fort Myers, RSW Airport, and I-75 south.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

When will Kingston open for sales? +

Model homes are expected to open in late 2026, with builder sales beginning around the same time and first residents moving in as early as early 2027. Pulte has confirmed pricing from approximately $300,000 to $700,000. Esplanade at Kingston (Taylor Morrison) anticipates pricing from the low $400s for single-family and the mid $300s for condominiums. Contact us to be placed on our early-access notification list.

Who builds Kingston in Estero, Florida? +

Kingston is developed by Cameratta Companies, the Estero-based family firm behind The Place at Corkscrew and Corkscrew Shores. Phase 1 builders are Lennar (1,358 homes & villas), Pulte Homes (~320 homes, $300K–$700K), Neal Communities (1,100 homes), and Taylor Morrison (Esplanade at Kingston — 1,285 homes, condos & villas). Kolter Homes is confirmed for Phase 2.

Why should I register with an agent before Kingston opens? +

Once Kingston's sales office opens, the first buyers through the door claim the best lots and often lock in first-phase pricing. More critically: if you visit the builder's office without naming a buyer's agent, you may permanently lose your right to independent representation at that community. Registering with The Borg Group now ensures you have a local expert advocating for you before prices are announced — at no cost to you. The builder pays our commission.

How large is Kingston and how long will it take to build out? +

Kingston spans nearly 7,000 acres with approximately 10,000 planned residences and 700,000 square feet of commercial space. At this scale, full build-out will unfold over many years and multiple phases. Early buyers are typically in the best position for both pricing and lot selection, and will benefit as surrounding infrastructure and commercial amenities develop around them.

What infrastructure improvements are planned near Kingston? +

Three major public infrastructure projects are underway: (1) A $27 million Corkscrew Road widening in active construction, targeted for completion late 2026; (2) The new Kingston Village Parkway to SR-82, with signal targeted for Fall 2026 and full connectivity by Winter 2027/2028; and (3) The Alico Road extension ($26.8M, approved May 2025) improving east-west access to Fort Myers and RSW Airport.

Will there be schools within Kingston? +

The developer has identified a parcel within Kingston for a future K–8 school. Additionally, True North Classical Academy — a tuition-free K–12 charter school planned for 3,100 students — is anticipated to open in the 2028/2029 school year in the Corkscrew corridor. Lee County public schools currently serve the area.

Does it cost me anything to have The Borg Group represent me at Kingston? +

Nothing. In new construction, the builder pays the buyer's agent commission. Your representation through The Borg Group costs you nothing over and above the purchase price of your home. If you go unrepresented, the commission that would have paid for your advocate simply stays with the builder.

Should I call The Borg Group first, or visit the builder's sales office first? +

Call us first — always. In Florida, once you register at a builder's sales office without naming a buyer's agent, the builder's position is that you are an unrepresented buyer. You may permanently lose your right to independent representation, even if you haven't signed anything yet. Call 239-350-4474 or register online here — it takes two minutes and protects everything.
