Jupiter home prices, an update

The market for Jupiter homes continues to heat up.  Prices and all other relevant statistics point to a high demand for our houses.

16 homes were listed for sale in this area during the last 24 hours.  If we drill down into the data a little we find that the median home price is $ 429,000 with works out to $ 194.41 per square feet of living space.

This takes into account all price ranges and the median gives a better insight than the average.

Days on the market have dropped to only about a month.  So, if you are looking at Jupiter homes for sale, be sure and talk to your agent and lender to make sure there are no surprises.

This is where a great agent can help.  Lending rules have tightened up since 2008 and the slightest mistake can really foul up you plans.

And you may lose the house you want.

So, to find the right house and get it, find the right agent.  If you think it makes sense to have a conversation about Jupiter real estate, contact me at 561-762-4073.

Burt Reynolds Ranch is set for development

Change is coming to Jupiter Farms and the 33478 zip code.  As the housing market here continues to heat up the undeveloped land around Jupiter Farms is coming under pressure.

Near the Florida Turnpike several hundred homes are going to be built by DiVosta Homes in Sonoma Isles.  Divosta, owned by Pulte, has been one of the most prolific builders in this area for decades. His homes in The Bluffs, The Hamptons and Oaks East have always been popular because of the pleasing floor plans, solid concrete construction and oak lined streets.

In the Farms, the famous Burt Reynolds ranch is set to undergo development into luxury homes on oversize lots.  K. Hovnanian purchased the property from the Palm Beach County School Board as has approval for construction.

At one time, the ranch/movie set was a tourist destination but for the last few years it has set abandoned.  It is located on the eastern side of the Farms on Jupiter Farms Road next to the local gathering spot, Town N Country Feed.

There are about a half dozen new construction locations in Jupiter right now.  If you are seeking a new home, you can find out which one might work best for you by contacting me directly at

Loxahatchee River homes setting new sale records

Loxahatchee River homes for sale and other waterfront locations are setting new records. The market for homes in Jupiter is red hot and nowhere is this more apparent than in waterfront properties. Homes like this riverfront home along the Loxahatchee River in Jupiter are selling in just days and sometimes at full price in cash deals.

There was a sale of $ 2.3 million dollars recently that sold the same day it came on the market.  The home below is listed for near $ 3 million and is on the Pennock Point riverfront area.

These sales are setting new per square foot records too.  One house just sold for near $ 700 per foot.
If you live along the river, this is the best time in years to sell...and of course, this can't last forever.
If you have a house for sale that is not selling, there is some reason that it is not moving.  And it may not be the price.

I have helped many homeowners fix the issues preventing a sale and get their homes under contract without lowering the price.

If you think it makes sense to have a conversation about selling, contact me at 561-762-4073.  If you missed the top of the market in 07, don't miss this chance to move forward with your plans.

Coming to look at Jupiter homes for sale or a vacation?  Well, if AirBnB is not on your list, check out the Jupiter Beach Resort.

Located on the Atlantic Ocean at the eastern end of Indiantown Road, this gem is THE place to stay in the area.  Check out this video I found.



The location just south of the Jupiter Inlet is perfect!  You can walk to our restaurants along the Inlet waterfront across from the lighthouse.  And since Indiantown Road is the main E-W corridor through town, you have quick access to any home you might want to see.

The highly desirable Islands of Jupiter

On the north side of Jupiter, where the Loxahatchee River meets Tequesta, is the waterfront community known as the Islands of Jupiter.  Here along the banks of the tranquil river flowing out of Jonathan Dickinson State Park estate homes offer luxurious living.

This home closed yesterday at a price of $ 1,520,000.  It has just over 4,700 square feet of living space with 6 bedrooms and 5 1/2 baths.  It was on the market for 23 days.

The Islands of Jupiter occupy a very unique spot along our coast.  Tucked away in a corner of the river where Jupiter meets Tequesta and Jonathan Dickinson State Park, the area is especially quiet. But the ocean is just a short boat ride away down the river and out the Jupiter Inlet.

Most of the Islands of Jupiter homes have docks and boat lifts.  This means you can walk out your door and after a short boat ride of about 10 minutes, head out the Jupiter Inlet to the ocean or over to the Bahamas which are about 45 minutes away.

Homes for sale in the Islands of Jupiter range from about $1.5 million to near $3 million for a location with a long river view.  I recently sold a home on Reach Island for $2.4 million.

You might like to live here if you want the safety of a gated entrance, want to own a waterfront estate home and don't need the amenities of our country clubs like Admirals Cove.  Of course, you could always join Jonathan's Landing as a non-resident member and have full access to club benefits.
