Gran Paradiso Update 6-23-2014



Hi, all! Some quick updates for you. 

-Tomorrow's West Villages Improvement District Supervisory meeting will be held at IslandWalk Clubhouse, 13605 Tantinto Boulevard,Venice, FL, instead of North Port City Hall. Prior to the meeting, starting at 8am, the voting will commence for the resident seat on the Supervisory Board. The voting will end at 11am when the monthly meeting is scheduled to begin. So, if you are a resident, show up and vote! (more info at www.wvid.orgPrevious blog about election

-Lennar has a temporary moratorium on new home orders to ensure quality and give production a chance to catch up with demand. There are inventory homes available, and the sales office is operating 'business as usual.' Also, Sam Rodgers Properties and Arthur Rutenberg homes are taking new orders. The pause is unlikely to last very long, so contact me if you are looking for a home in Gran Paradiso at the West Villages.

-Also, you might have seen a lot of trucks moving dirt around in the front south-eastern part of Gran Paradiso in the last month.  Lennar is clearing the land for Coach Homes and Town Homes. There is not much in the way of details to report right now. I can tell you that Lennar offers some fantastic floor plans in this type of home. We will soon see what they decide to offer there...I’ll keep you posted as I learn more.

Gran Paradiso: West Villages Growth

Well, in case you missed it, there is some new information about upcoming growth in the West Villages Improvement District. In brief article posted on Friday, it was said that nearly 10,000 acres was purchased and approved for over 11,000 new homes! This HUGE parcel is adjacent to Gran Paradiso and Islandwalk sprawling out south-southeast of the communities. This is just another indicator that now is the time to beat the rush that will drive up prices and take advantage of the ground-floor pricing in Gran Paradiso.

Additionally, the article mentions that the new home sales in this area represents a whopping 25% of new home sales in the entire region! That is a phenomenal figure. And, if you have been following my blogs, you will remember that I already discussed what a huge proportion of the sales in the area were in Gran Paradiso compared to the other longer established communities. So, considering that proportion of the regional 25% is truly outstanding. It just goes to show, once again, what a popular and phenomenal value is recognized in Gran Paradiso.

If you didn't read the previous blog, check it out. Click Here. And, check out older posts to learn about the history and the grand re-opening it has had since last October.
