HOA, CDD and running costs
No HOA, CDD or fee information exists for for-sale homes because none have been released. CDD status for the district was not researched. If the 54-lot plan or any later for-sale phase comes to market, ask for the HOA budget and any district assessment before you reserve a lot.
The site is in the City of Apopka, where the 2026 total millage is 16.0079. If you do buy new construction here later, expect the first tax bill after closing to be based largely on land value and to rise once the home is assessed. The property tax estimator, the mortgage calculator and the new construction guide cover the mechanics.
Zoned schools
No zoned schools were captured for Wyld Oaks. Attendance zones are set by address and change. Use the OCPS attendance zone lookup once a property has an address.
Getting around
The site is directly at the SR 429 Kelly Park Road interchange, which opened on July 27, 2017. SR 429 is tolled. The toll at the Kelly Park Road ramps was not captured for this page.
The City is widening about 1.5 miles of W Kelly Park Road to four lanes, from Waypointe Boulevard east to just past Plymouth Sorrento Road. Notice to begin was issued March 18, 2026 with a target of Thanksgiving 2027. A funding shortfall surfaced in mid-2026 and an amendment to the developer agreement was still being negotiated in October 2026, so treat the finish date as uncertain.

What to check before you buy here
- Confirm what is actually for sale. As of November 2026 the verified housing is rental only.
- If you are buying in a nearby subdivision because of Wyld Oaks, ask what is under construction today, not what the master plan shows.
- Ask the City for the current Kelly Park Road widening schedule and funding status.
- For any future for-sale phase, get the CDD and HOA documents and read the builder contract's deposit terms. Bring your own representation on the first visit.
- Expect a large, multi-year construction site with apartments, retail and industrial buildings.
- Check the FEMA flood map and get an insurance quote for any lot before you commit.
