Boca Raton is recognized as an international destination. With the recent addition of an international customs facility at the Boca Raton Airport, and with the current media spotlight on Florida tax benefits, Via Mizner is attracting the global elite. More corporations are relocating their headquarters to Boca Raton and the median age is trending younger. This recent influx of a wealthy demographic is escalating the demand for luxury homes.
"We continue to see demand for luxury-branded residences in South Florida," said Jay Parker, Chief Executive Officer of Florida Brokerage, Douglas Elliman. "With some of the most influential people in the world now residing in Boca Raton, The Penthouse Collection is the only option that appeals to these sophisticated and discerning buyers. Our buyers also recognize the value of hotel-branded residences, which typically retain their value and prove to be an excellent investment opportunity over non-branded condominiums."
