Mattamy Homes
Mattamy Homes offers townhomes and single-family homes at Crosswind Ranch. The community currently has multiple model homes available to tour, along with a selection of floorplans and quick move-in homes.
Homes by WestBay
Homes by WestBay offers single-family homes through its Artisan 60s, Artisan 70s and Innovation collections. The builder’s homes include features such as tile roofs and paver driveways as standard features in its Crosswind Ranch offerings.
Because different builders have different floorplans, included features, construction specifications, upgrade options and pricing, buyers should compare the homes based on the complete package rather than just the advertised base price.

What to Consider When Buying New Construction at Crosswind Ranch
Buying a new construction home involves more than selecting a floorplan and finishes.
Buyers should compare:
- Builder
- Floorplan
- Lot location
- Home orientation
- Included features
- Structural options
- Design upgrades
- Appliance packages
- Flooring
- Cabinets and countertops
- Garage size
- Estimated completion date
- HOA costs
- CDD costs
- Current builder incentives
- Quick move-in versus to-be-built pricing
The advertised base price is only one part of the comparison. Two homes with similar prices can have very different included features and upgrade packages.
Construction timing is also important. A to-be-built home requires the buyer to go through the construction process, while a completed or nearly completed home may provide a faster move-in.
Rich Noto: Realtor and Home Inspector
For buyers considering new construction at Crosswind Ranch, Rich Noto combines real estate representation with experience as a licensed Home Inspector.
The focus is on the construction side of the purchase as well as the real estate transaction. This includes paying attention to construction progress, attending inspections, reviewing inspection reports, identifying potential missed items, documenting construction with photos and videos, and helping buyers follow the home through the inspection and walkthrough process.
New construction does not eliminate the need for inspections. A new home will have construction issues involving areas such as the foundation, framing, plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, roofing, siding, stucco, drainage and water intrusion.
Rich Noto’s construction-trained approach is designed to help buyers pay attention to the home itself throughout the new construction process.

I’m Rich Noto, a Florida Realtor & Home Inspector with a focus on the best price house, and quality new construction oversight. I specialize in new house purchases which includes getting homes built to Florida Residential Building Codes and Manufactures Installation Instructions.
I help homebuyers beyond the “standard Real Estate sales agent” (who may disappear after purchase contract) by dealing with sales, construction managers, attending/monitoring inspections, and spotting defects. This helps buyers catch problems early.
Builders pay my commission. Does not apply after buyer is in contract(all builders) or has contacted the builder alone(some builders). This top rated service is available at any town throughout Florida.
Any agent can “sell new homes” or be a “high volume seller” or have “builder relationships”. Sales marketing has nothing to do with understanding constructions defects. Home Defects are the main expense a homeowner will have and can cost home owners thousands of $$$. Depreciating future resale value.
I enjoy teaching my customers how new homes are built. How to identify water intrusion. And the steps to keep a house well maintained to prevent leaks over time. Out of state buyers get special walkthrough and inspection videos.
Whether its a completed move-in ready inventory house, or a to be built custom on the land, or a spec house. You deserve the best quality for your money.
