About The Meadows Homes in Palm City Florida:

The Meadows at Martin Downs is a family friendly gated residential community very well situated in Palm City, Florida. Their are 832 homes consisting of single-family homes, duplexes, 4 unit townhouses, and 4 unit patio homes. The Meadows community is divided into 6  distinct villages which are named: Greenwich, Lakemont, Mayflower, Brighton, Foxboro and Ridgewood.

The Meadows is a guard gated community with round-the-clock security.  Residents of the meadows enjoy a large heated swimming pool, a tot pool, children’s playground adjacent to the pool, basket ball, 3 lighted tennis courts, a horseshoe pit and 2 bocce courts.  Near the entrance of the Meadows, between the gatehouse and the fountain, is a 2200 square foot recreation center, known as The Meadows House, which also houses the administrative offices of The Meadows Homeowners Association.

Homes in the Meadows

The Meadows came into existence through the efforts of local developer Peter Cumming who submitted the plans for the community around 1988.  Shortly thereafter, Burg and DiVosta (soon to be just DiVosta) began developing the land in the area called Martin Downs for the soon to be constructed villages of The Meadows.

Homes in the Meadows

Divosta started construction on the site known as The Meadows in 1988 by building two structures from which to sell. One was a Single Family home (Hampton) in what is now known as Greenwich Village, and the other was a four unit Town Home building (Stamford) in what is now known as Lakemont Village. Both types of homes were started in The Meadows at about the same time in 1988.  DiVosta completed the Meadows in 1993 and turned the administration and running of the community to The Meadows Homeowners Association which runs the community through elected officers as well as a full time support staff.

HOA fees in the meadows vary by the type of home, so please look at the listing details view when checking available Meadows homes for sale.  The Meadows is not age restricted and currently allows up to 2 large pets.  Rentals are also allowed with some restrictions.

Children currently attend the Bessey Creek Elementary School, the Hidden Oaks Middle School; and the Martin County High School.

Vacation Homes: Not Just for Vacations

Vacation Homes: Not Just for Vacations

Sewalls Point real estate

So you’re thinking of buying a vacation home, but are afraid that you may have very limited use for such a lovely extravagance. You may be pondering, just how many vacations can one person take during the course of a single year?

Well the good news is that, apart from being beautiful, luxurious and a whole lot of fun, vacation homes also can serve as multi-functional properties with a vast variety of uses.

Like what, you ask? So glad you asked:

• Weekend homes. While one generally considers a vacation house to be a place where people spend extended periods of time (at least one week or more), one also can feel free to retreat to their vacation house for the occasional—or perhaps even frequent—weekend. A 48-hour vacation still can serve as a relaxing and satisfying respite; so depending on the amount of geographic distance that exists between your everyday home and your vacation getaway, you might be able to make some weekend escapes to your enchanting getaway spot.

• Escape homes. Sometimes the stress and pacing of life tends to overwhelm us; yet it is specifically because of our busy schedules that we can’t plan frequent vacations. So if you did tend to score the occasional day or half week off, you may wish to retreat to your every trusty vacation home; a place where you can chill out, get a little proverbial peace and quiet, re-energize and regroup.

• Rental homes. Some people choose to rent out their vacation homes to other people, at least for part of the year. Making use of the classic time share concept, they allow other renters to enjoy their vacation home during the off season; i.e., during the times of the year in which they themselves are not inhabiting the house. So aside from serving as a surefire source of fun and relaxation for you and your family, your vacation home also might serve as a viable source of secondary home.

• A family retreat—that’s not for the whole family. Maybe you are working on an intensive work-related or creative project that requires your complete and total focus. Or perhaps your college-aged student needs a quiet place to study for finals; or, once finals are done, a place to party (sanely and quietly) with friends. In this case a vacation home also can double as a valuable family retreat—one that can be enjoyed anytime of the year!

So, if you’re thinking of a potential Stuart, FL second home or condo, give me a call.

April 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

April 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The April 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos is beginning to show some slower activity tahn in past years drifting out of a sellers market and currently in a balanced one.  Closed sales were down by 5.3% as compared to last months decrease of 7.1% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 5.7% (In March there was a 10.1% decrease).  While on the single family side of the Florida real estate market this decrease in volume can be attributed to inventory, for condos and townhouses it appears to be strictly price related as the inventory has been gaining in the past few months.

Inexplicably, prices continue to rise, though at a slower pace than for the past few years.  The median sales price was up by 4.4% (up by 3.3% in March), while the average sales price increased by 2.9% (was down 3.9% in March).  Should the inventory continue to rise with slow sales, I expect these price increase to shrink in the near future.

The inventory increased by 7.5% from April of last year.  For April 2016 we have 6.3 months of inventory (was also 6.3 months in March) and compared to 5.9 for April 2015.  We are currently in a balanced market for Florida townhouse and condo sales.

The March 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos is now in a balanced market and not the super heated activity as we have experienced for the past two years.  Closed sales were down by 7.1% as compared to last months decrease of 5.4% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 10.1% (In February there was a 10.5% decrease).  While on the single family side of the Florida real estate market this decrease in volume can be attributed to inventory, for condos and townhouses it appears to be strictly price related as the inventory has been gaining in the past few months.

The median sales price continued to rise, by 3.3% (up by 5.6% in February), while the average sales price decreased by 3.9% (was down 1.4% in February).  It appears that prices may not continue to rise very rapidly for this segment of the Florida real estate market.

The inventory increased by 6.7% from March of last year.  For March 2016 we have 6.3 months of inventory (was also 6.3 months in February) and compared to 6.0 for March 2015.  First time in two years that we are seeing an increase in inventory as well as being out of a sellers market.
