Notes (as of Aug 29, 2026)
25
OHIO ONLY — Greater Cleveland is entirely within Ohio (no other-state communities to worry about here, unlike Cincinnati's Northern Kentucky spillover).
26
This spreadsheet covers the AFFORDABLE tier: communities with an advertised starting price under $500,000, grouped by builder and sorted HIGH to LOW price within each group.
27
Both link columns point to each BUILDER'S OWN WEBSITE. Note Drees Homes runs a separate site structure for its Cleveland/Northeast Ohio market (dreeshomes.com/new-homes-cleveland) distinct from its Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky site — both community links above were individually confirmed.
28
This is a curated selection, NOT exhaustive — Greater Cleveland has 140 active new-construction communities per NewHomeSource across 42 builders, led by Pulte Homes (23 communities) and Drees Homes (12, though most of Drees' Cleveland-market communities run well above $500K). This spreadsheet surfaces 17 communities under $500K across 5 builders as a starting point. Happy to expand — e.g., pull in more Pulte communities, or add smaller regional builders like Petros Homes, Parkview Custom Homes, or Knez Homes if useful.
29
Starting prices are the builder's lowest advertised floor plan price and can change; a specific lot, elevation, or finish level often costs more.
30
"Sub-Region" notes the county/general area to help you judge commute feasibility relative to Downtown Cleveland — verify exact drive times yourself.
31
"PUD" (Planned Unit Development) is a zoning designation, not a marketing term — most of these communities are technically platted under standard residential zoning. If you need confirmation of actual PUD zoning status for a specific property, check with the relevant city/township/county zoning office.
