Our great ESTATE is growing!
I have stated before that COVID-19 brought change – for many, it was a realization that they could work from home; for others, it brought on a renewed look at a healthier life and for some, the simple desire to live in a community that offered old-school peace and and harmony, walking, running, cycling and golfing. St Francis Links is welcoming new families by the week. There is almost no long-term rental properties available. Properties that were in the rental pool are now occupied permanently by the owners. The majority of new builds are for permanent residence. We are proud that nearly 70% of our homes are permanently occupied!
Currently, new plans are being submitted weekly and new homes are breaking ground at the same pace. 18 homes are currently under construction! A further 33 projects are approved or submitted for approval. 185 homes are completed with at least 12 in the planning stages.
Where else do you want to be!
We look forward to our sponsored days with ITEC and Selective Lighting/The Fire Works and Pam Golding Properties and Village Square SuperSpar events.
