New Construction in Doral: What Is Available and What It Costs in 2026

New construction in Doral in 2026 breaks down into three tiers: entry-level townhomes and condos starting near $380,000, a crowded luxury townhome middle between $700,000 and $1.2 million, and a small top tier of single-family estates and premium townhomes running $1.2 million to $2.1 million. That’s the honest range of what is available and what it costs right now, and where you land depends entirely on how much land, privacy, and square footage you’re willing to trade for Doral’s location.

Doral stopped being a place with cheap vacant land a while back. What’s left to build gets built up, not out, and the pricing reflects that. If you’re relocating for work at Miami International Airport, the Blue Lagoon business district, or one of the corporate offices along NW 25th Street and Doral Boulevard, here’s what’s actually on the ground, what it costs, and what the fine print looks like.

This matters more in 2026 than it did even two or three years ago. Doral’s remaining developable parcels are shrinking fast, and every builder still active in the city is working with the last stretch of land zoned for anything new. That scarcity is exactly why the pricing looks the way it does, and why waiting a year to “see what else comes online” usually means watching the same floor plans get more expensive, not cheaper.

New Construction in Doral: What Is Available and What It Costs Right Now

Five communities make up the bulk of active new construction in Doral as of mid-2026. Here’s the shape of the market:

• Park Central Doral (Lennar): $380,000 to $850,000, townhomes and condos, actively selling, roughly 400 units
• Landmark Doral (Lennar): $700,000 to $1.2 million, luxury townhomes, actively selling, roughly 350 units
• Canarias at Downtown Doral (CC Homes): $900,000 to $2.1 million, single-family estates and luxury townhomes, actively selling, roughly 343 units
• Modern Doral (Lennar): $1.2 million and up, single-family homes, under construction in its final phases, roughly 319 units
• Oasis Park Square (Shoma Group): $1 million and up, luxury townhomes, under construction, roughly 150 units

That’s close to 1,600 units of new product across five communities, and notice what’s missing: there is no true entry-level single-family segment left. If you want a detached house under $1 million that isn’t a resale from the 2000s or 2010s boom, Doral isn’t going to give it to you in new construction. That gap is one of the biggest differences between Doral and a suburb like Weston, and it’s worth reading through if you’re cross-shopping. Our Doral vs. Weston comparison lays out exactly where each city wins depending on what you’re optimizing for.

Look at the pricing bands as a ladder rather than five unrelated communities. Park Central is the bottom rung. Landmark and the entry tier of Canarias form the middle rungs, overlapping heavily in the $700,000 to $900,000 range. Modern Doral, Oasis Park Square, and the top end of Canarias sit at the top. Most buyers I work with in Doral end up choosing between two adjacent rungs, not shopping the entire range, because the jump from $450,000 to $1 million is usually a jump in life stage, not just budget.

Park Central Doral: The Entry Point

Park Central, built by Lennar, is the most accessible new construction community in the city right now. Townhomes and condos start around $380,000, which is roughly what you’d pay for a dated resale townhome in parts of Kendall or West Miami-Dade, except here you’re getting a warranty, current hurricane codes, and impact glass as standard.

The community leans resort-style: a grand clubhouse, tennis courts, basketball courts, and family-oriented amenity space rather than a single small pool and a card room. At roughly 400 total units, it’s also one of the larger active communities, which matters if you’re timing a move and don’t want to be stuck waiting on the last few available lots or units in a smaller, nearly sold-out phase.

Floor plans here run from compact one-car-garage townhomes suited to a single buyer or couple, up through larger three-bedroom layouts that work for a young family. If you’re comparing this against renting a two-bedroom apartment near Downtown Doral, run the real numbers, not just the sticker price. Rent on a comparable two-bedroom unit in the Downtown Doral corridor has been pushing past $2,800 to $3,000 a month in 2026. A $380,000 to $420,000 townhome at Park Central, financed with a reasonable down payment, often lands close to that same monthly outlay once you account for principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA, except you’re building equity instead of paying someone else’s mortgage.

Who this fits: young professionals commuting to Blue Lagoon, Brickell, or the airport corridor who want ownership instead of renting, and investors targeting Doral’s rental demand. If you’re weighing the numbers on the investor side, our Doral Investment Property breakdown walks through rental comps and realistic returns for this price band.

Who this doesn’t fit: anyone who needs a yard, a garage bigger than what comes standard, or four-plus bedrooms. At this price point in Doral, you’re buying square footage efficiency, not space to spread out. If a yard for a dog or kids is non-negotiable, you’re better off looking at resale inventory in older Doral subdivisions like Doral Isles or Doral Estates, where lot sizes reflect an earlier era of development, or expanding your search west toward Miami Lakes.

Landmark Doral and Canarias at Downtown Doral: The Luxury Townhome Tier

This is where most of Doral’s new construction activity actually sits. Two communities, two very different personalities, same general price band on the low end.

Landmark Doral (Lennar, $700,000 to $1.2 million) is a gated community of three-level modern townhomes, and select floor plans come with private rooftop terraces, which is a real differentiator if you want outdoor space without a yard to maintain. At roughly 350 units, it’s a scale community, not a boutique one. Expect Lennar’s standard build quality and design center process, meaning your finish-out options and pricing tiers will look familiar if you’ve shopped any other Lennar community in South Florida. Three stories also means real separation between living space and bedrooms, which families with teenagers tend to appreciate more than buyers without kids realize going in.

Canarias at Downtown Doral (CC Homes, $900,000 to $2.1 million) is the wider-ranging of the two, mixing single-family estates with luxury townhomes inside Downtown Doral proper. That’s the key distinction: this isn’t a standalone gated pod off a suburban corridor, it’s inside the walkable Downtown Doral district, close to Downtown Doral Charter Elementary School. Homes here are built with open-concept layouts and gourmet chef’s kitchens, and the walkability to restaurants, CityPlace Doral-style retail, and green space is the actual product you’re paying the premium for, not just the square footage.

The $2.1 million ceiling at Canarias reflects the single-family estate product specifically, the largest lots and floor plans in the community. The luxury townhome inventory inside Canarias generally trades closer to the $900,000 to $1.3 million range, which is worth clarifying with a sales rep or your agent before you assume the whole community starts near seven figures for a townhome.

If proximity to good public schools is driving your search, read Doral Schools: Why Families Move Here before you commit to a specific community, because school zoning inside Doral varies block to block more than people expect. A townhome at Landmark and a townhome at Canarias can sit less than two miles apart and feed different elementary schools entirely.

Between these two, the decision usually comes down to lifestyle: Landmark if you want a private, gated, self-contained community; Canarias if you want to be inside the walkable downtown grid and don’t mind paying more for that address. I’ve had buyers walk both model rows on the same afternoon and pick based on something as simple as whether they wanted to drive to dinner or walk to it. That’s a legitimate way to decide. Don’t overthink the choice past your actual daily habits.

Modern Doral and Oasis Park Square: The High End

Modern Doral (Lennar, $1.2 million+) is the closest thing left to a true single-family new construction option in the city, and it’s in its final phases. Roughly 319 units total, gated, with ultra-modern minimalist architecture: expansive floor plans, custom glass facades, and high-end shared amenities. If a detached single-family home with a real footprint is non-negotiable for you, this is functionally the last call in Doral proper. Once Modern Doral sells out, expect the next single-family new construction inventory in this price range to be in Miami Lakes, Pembroke Pines’ western edge, or further west into Miami-Dade toward Florida City, not in Doral itself.

Buyers who come to me asking specifically for a single-family new build under $1.5 million inside Doral need to hear this early in the process: that inventory is closing, not opening. I’d rather tell you that on the first call than let you spend three months touring communities that don’t have what you’re describing. If Modern Doral’s remaining releases don’t fit your timeline or budget, the honest move is to widen the search geography now, not wait and hope more land opens up inside city limits.

Oasis Park Square (Shoma Group, $1 million+) takes a different approach: a high-density boutique layout of upscale contemporary townhomes with private rooftop patios and summer kitchens, located near major highway arteries for easy access to the Palmetto Expressway (826) and Dolphin Expressway (836). At roughly 150 units, it’s the smallest of the five active communities, which usually means it sells out faster and has fewer floor plan choices remaining by the time you’re shopping it seriously.

The highway proximity at Oasis Park Square cuts both ways. It’s genuinely convenient if your commute runs north to Broward or west toward the Turnpike, and it shortens the drive to Miami International noticeably compared to communities further into central Doral. But ask specifically about which units back up to 826 or 836 directly, because road noise varies unit to unit in a way a floor plan sheet won’t show you. Walk the actual lot, not just the model.

Both of these communities target buyers who’ve outgrown the entry tier and want either land (Modern Doral) or resort-adjacent finishes and outdoor living space built into a townhome footprint (Oasis Park Square).

Westview and the Rest of the Doral Pipeline

Doral’s new construction story isn’t only the five communities above. Westview at Doral is part of the broader master-planned development pattern that’s defined the western edge of the city for the past decade, and it’s worth a look if you want an established community with more built-out infrastructure and amenities already running, rather than a brand-new phase still under construction dust.

Westview and communities like it also tend to have more resale inventory mixed in alongside any remaining new phases, which gives you a wider set of floor plans and price points to compare in one trip than a single-phase, single-builder community can offer. That’s a real advantage if you’re relocating on a timeline and want move-in-ready options alongside anything still being built.

The pattern across Doral’s pipeline is consistent: builders are prioritizing density and vertical product over horizontal single-family sprawl, because the land simply isn’t there anymore. Every new phase that breaks ground going forward is more likely to look like Canarias or Oasis Park Square than like a traditional single-family subdivision. If low-density, larger-lot living matters more to you than the Doral address itself, it’s worth reading how Doral stacks up against a lower-density western suburb like Weston before you lock in.

HOA and CDD Fees: What New Construction Really Costs Beyond the Sticker Price

This is the part buyers skip and then get surprised by at closing. New construction in Doral almost universally comes with an HOA, and the amenity-heavy communities described above (clubhouses, tennis courts, resort pools, gated entries) don’t run themselves for free.

A few things to actually check before you fall in love with a floor plan:

1. Ask for the current HOA budget, not just the quoted monthly fee. Builders often quote an introductory HOA number that increases once the community turns over from developer control to a homeowner-elected board.
2. Ask specifically about CDD (Community Development District) assessments. These are separate from HOA dues, tied to the land itself, and pay off infrastructure like roads, drainage, and utilities that were built to support the community. A CDD fee shows up as a line item on your property tax bill, not your HOA statement, and it’s easy to miss if you’re only budgeting the HOA number a builder gives you verbally.
3. Compare all-in monthly cost, not just purchase price. A $420,000 townhome at Park Central with a $350 HOA and no CDD can carry a lower true monthly cost than a $780,000 unit with a $500 HOA plus a $150 CDD assessment, once you run the full math against your mortgage.
4. Rooftop terraces and private amenities usually mean a higher HOA. Landmark’s rooftop terrace units and Oasis Park Square’s rooftop patios are maintained partly through community reserves for structural upkeep, waterproofing, and common-area landscaping that surrounds them. Ask what’s covered before assuming it’s purely your responsibility or purely the association’s.
5. Ask how many phases are still slated to build out. In communities like Landmark or Canarias that are still actively selling, your HOA dues are partly covering amenities and infrastructure that later phases of buyers will also use. That’s normal, but it means your reserve contributions today are funding shared costs across a community that isn’t finished yet. Ask the HOA or the builder’s rep for the buildout timeline so you know roughly when the community reaches full occupancy and full amenity access.

None of this means new construction in Doral is overpriced. It means the sticker price on a builder’s website is the start of the conversation, not the end of it, and every serious buyer should get the actual HOA financials and any CDD documents before writing an offer. I’ve seen buyers walk away from a signed reservation agreement after finally getting real numbers on a CDD assessment that wasn’t disclosed clearly upfront. It happens more than it should, and it’s entirely avoidable if you ask for the documents early.

Which Doral New Construction Community Fits Which Buyer

Breaking it down by buyer profile, based on what’s actually available:

First-time buyer under $500,000: Park Central Doral is close to the only realistic option in new construction. Below that price, you’re shopping resale in older Doral communities or looking outside the city limits. Our First-Time Buyer in Doral guide goes deeper on financing, incentives, and what to expect at this price point specifically. If your down payment or credit picture isn’t fully sorted yet, this is also the price band where builder incentives (closing cost credits, rate buydowns) tend to move the needle the most relative to the purchase price.

Young professional or investor, $500,000 to $850,000: Park Central’s upper units or the entry tier of Landmark. Rental demand in this band is strong given proximity to the airport and Blue Lagoon corporate corridor. If you’re buying as an investor rather than an owner-occupant, confirm the HOA’s rental restrictions before you close. Some Doral communities cap the percentage of units that can be leased at any given time, or require a minimum lease term, and that detail can change your entire return calculation.

Move-up buyer or family, $700,000 to $1.2 million: Landmark Doral or the entry tier of Canarias, depending on whether you want gated-community privacy or Downtown Doral walkability and school proximity. Families with school-age kids should weigh the school zoning question as heavily as the floor plan itself. A slightly smaller unit zoned for the school you want beats a bigger unit zoned for one you don’t.

High-net-worth buyer wanting land and privacy, $1.2 million+: Modern Doral, while units remain. This is genuinely a closing window, not an evergreen option. If Modern Doral’s final phase sells out before you’re ready to move, the realistic next step is either a resale single-family home in an established Doral neighborhood or expanding your geography, not waiting for new land to open up inside the city.

Buyer prioritizing lifestyle and outdoor living in a smaller footprint, $1 million+: Oasis Park Square, for the rooftop patios and summer kitchens, or the upper tier of Canarias for single-family estate living inside downtown. This buyer typically has already lived in a larger house elsewhere and is intentionally downsizing the footprint without downsizing the lifestyle. That’s a very different mindset from a first-time buyer, and the questions you ask a sales rep should reflect it: ask about noise, privacy between units, and long-term reserve funding for shared rooftop and outdoor structures.

If you’re still deciding on the neighborhood before the community, Doral Neighborhoods: Downtown Doral, Doral Isles, and Where to Live breaks down how these communities sit relative to each other geographically and which parts of the city have the shortest commute to the airport corridor versus the Palmetto.

How to Buy New Construction in Doral the Right Way

A few practical steps that consistently save buyers money and headaches in Doral specifically:

1. Use your own agent, and bring them to the model home on your first visit. The sales rep at the model home works for the builder. Your agent works for you, reviews the purchase contract for builder-favorable clauses, and can negotiate closing cost credits or upgrade packages that aren’t posted anywhere. Once you register at the model home without an agent, most builders will not retroactively let you bring one in and still honor buyer representation. Get this right on visit one.
2. Get the HOA and CDD documents before you sign a reservation agreement. Not after. Some builders will provide preliminary budgets on request even before a formal contract. If a sales rep tells you the documents “aren’t ready yet,” treat that as a reason to slow down, not a reason to sign anyway.
3. Walk the community at different times of day if it’s still under construction. Active build sites mean truck traffic, noise, and dust for as long as remaining phases are under construction, which in a 300 to 400 unit community can be a year or more after you close. Visit once on a weekday morning and once on a Saturday to get an honest read on what daily life will actually sound and feel like.
4. Compare the same floor plan’s pricing across phases if the community is still selling. Builders raise prices phase by phase as inventory sells down. What you’re quoted today for a specific floor plan may already be higher than the same plan sold six months ago, and lower than what it will cost in the next release. Ask the sales rep directly what the same plan sold for in the prior release. Most will tell you if you ask plainly.
5. Don’t skip the independent home inspection just because it’s new. New construction still has punch-list items, and a third-party inspector working for you, not the builder, catches things the municipal inspector’s checklist doesn’t. Budget for both a pre-drywall inspection where possible and a final walkthrough inspection before closing.
6. Get a full breakdown of what’s included versus what’s an upgrade before you fall for the model home. Model homes are staged with upgrade packages that can add $40,000 to $80,000 or more to the base price you were originally quoted. Walk through the base spec sheet line by line with your agent so the number in your head matches the home you’re actually going to sign for.

The Bottom Line

New construction in Doral in 2026 means townhomes and condos more than single-family homes, luxury pricing more than entry-level, and HOA math that deserves real scrutiny before you commit. Park Central gets you in the door under $500,000. Landmark and Canarias dominate the middle of the market between $700,000 and $1.2 million with very different lifestyle bets. Modern Doral is your last realistic shot at a true single-family new build inside city limits, and Oasis Park Square rounds out the top end with a smaller, boutique footprint.

The through line across all five communities is the same: Doral’s remaining land is nearly gone, builders are pricing accordingly, and the gap between what’s available today and what will be available in twelve months is only going to widen. Whatever tier fits your budget, the honest advice is to make the decision on real numbers and real documents, not on a model home tour and a sales rep’s pitch.

If you want a second opinion on which of these communities actually fits your budget, commute, and family situation, that’s a conversation worth having before you visit a single model home.
