Palm Beach County New Home Sales- Market Report

Palm Beach County New Home Sales- Market Report

2011 was the best year for new home builders since 2007. 

We are seeing more builders advertising more and raising their prices just a little bit. 

In 2011 there were 1,319 new home sales which is up 17% from 2010.

But the new home sales are no where near the peak of the building boom in 2005 when 8,179 new home sales topped the charts. 

More than 100 homebuilders went out of business or bankrupt after the real estate bust throughout the country including some big name builders. 

However, Lennar, GL Homes, Minto and Pulte are among South Florida homebuilders who are making it through this downturn in new home starts. 

Buyers are starting to get sick of foreclosures and are turning to new construction. 

Retirees and vacation home buyers like to also buy new construction. If you are looking to buy new construction in Palm Beach County contact our office at 561-753-0135 and we will put you in touch with one of our buyers’ agents who will guide you through the new construction home buying process. The builders’ sales staff does not work for you, they work for the builder.  You should have an agent who is representing you through the home buying process. The builders do not raise their fees if you have an agent. Contact us today.

Here is another testimonial from one of our short sale sellers that we closed on: 

Dear Nestor and Katerina, 

I am writing this letter to express my complete satisfaction and gratitude for helping me short sale my property.  I cannot thank you enough for helping me through my short sale process.  You guys have gone above and beyond what I had expected and have made me feel as if I was a dear friend and not another client.  I am especially pleased with the professional service you and your staff  provided me, it has been first class.  Your knowledge and timeliness has saved me time and money.  I could not believe how quickly you worked to get my property sold.  I am happy to recommend International Properties and Investments to any that ask, confident that they will experience the same satisfaction in service that I have. 

Sincerely,

Steve Fierro 

How Many Horses Can I Have In Paddock Park II in Wellington Florida?

How many horses can I have in Paddock Park II in Wellington Florida? 

We get a lot of questions in our ActiveRain contact box and our email boxes from prospective sellers and buyers for property around Wellington Florida and other locations in South Florida. 

One of the questions that came in last week was: How many horses can we have in Paddock Park II. 

Paddock Park II and Saddle Trail equestrian communities in Wellington Florida have acreage lots with homes and acreage suitable for your horses. If you buy a home in either of these communities you can apply for a permit to build stalls on your property. 

You are allowed to have 4 stalls per acre in each of these equestrian communities in Wellington. So that means you can have 4 horses per acre in Paddock Park II and Saddle Trail. 

Please bear in mind that if you are new to horses and the equestrian lifestyle that just because you are allowed to have 4 stalls per acre does not mean that is the most ideal environment for your horses. Horses like to graze. Horses are top grazers which means they like to eat the top of the grass and in Florida the grass on your land is not always in the best condition for horse grazing.You can plant bermuda grass in Florida and in the winters your horses should do fine. Make sure to take into consideration how much grazing areas you have to raise a healthy horse.
