Palm Beach Real Estate and Loans

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of Palm Beach Gardens real estate is probably luxury homes on a golf course.

For the most part that is true - but there is an alternative or two. One of the first that comes to mind is the unique community Steeplechase.

Situated on the south side of Northlake Boulevard, just south of BallenIsles, Steeplechase offers the top-notch estates that Palm Beach Gardens is so well known for BUT, each home is on a lot that is a minimum of 1 acre.

There are none of the uncomfortable, zero-lot-line set ups that you see in so many other communities. 

Leibowitz Realty has a great description of this community:

"Steeplechase is a wonderful 24-hour gated community of luxury homes on one acre plus lots! (A very rare commodity in South Florida).

Offering a diverse selection of established estates and brand new construction custom estate homes, Steeplechase is one of the most unique neighborhoods in Palm Beach County.  Each home is set on at least an acre of gorgeous property creating a true estate feel with deeply set back homes offering the ultimate privacy and fabulous backyards with room for tennis courts, sports courts, private playgrounds and more!  A Charming tree-lined main street and sidewalks on Steeplechase main drive encourages neighborhood walks, jogs and general enjoyment of this intimate community and the fantastic South Florida weather.  Custom estate homes surround the quiet side streets and are interspersed around lovely cul-de sacs as well in this beautifully designed community."

You can read more about it HERE or take a TOUR of the community.

Please call me at 561-282-7406 at any time to discuss the community and the properties that are currently available.

If you are considering luxury real estate in Palm Beach Gardens, you don't want to miss the homes in San Michele.

Everyone, including myself, is always talking about BallenIsles, Mirasol, PGA National, Old Palm -

San Michele is different.....

It is a very private, gated community of only 90 phenominal estates in the north of Palm Beach Gardens - just north of the intersection of Hood Road and Central Blvd.

 A perfect example of what you can expect there is 3132 San Michele Drive - a 4 bedroom 4.5 bathroom Tuscan-style courtyard home that you can come and see at my Open House this Sunday (7/13/2008) or you can go to the virtual tour here.

Someone called me the other day and said something that was a bit of a surprise:

"I know you don't do rentals, but......"

WHAT?!

I certainly DO handle rentals!!

Quite a few real estate agents won't get involved with rental properties.

The reason doesn't matter - I could say that it's due to laziness, but that wouldn't be very nice of me....

I work with Rental Clients all around Palm Beach Gardens - especially in BallenIsles, Mirasol and PGA National.

There are several different classifications of Rental properties:

• Annual - both furnished and unfurnished - the most common type. I've talked to a lot of people who think that they'd like to rent for a year to see if they like the area before actually buying.
• Seasonal - furnished, especially if they are combined with golf memberships, are EXTREMELY popular in the Palm Beach Gardens area.  With the number of courses available this is a great area for people to come to escape the snow for a few months. Typically December through February (or even March).  There is a little flexibility but the minimum term is rarely less than 90 days.
• Off Season - Owners that aren't using their homes during the summer will often offer this type of rental.

This Sunday - 6/22/08 - Leibowitz Realty Group will be featuring 4 properties in BallenIsles.

This is a particularly good weekend for Buyers of Palm Beach Gardens real estate to take a look there as we will be showing both single family homes and condos with a wide variety of views - golf, water and garden with prices from $499,900 to $1,099,000.

In other words - something for everybody.

 I'll be at 126 C Palm Bay Terrace this weekend-

Just drop by or call me if you have questions about any of these properties.
