Sebastian-Vero Beach Climbs the Ladder

The biggest mover on the ranking chart was Sebastian-Vero Beach, FL, which sits along the Atlantic coast about 80 miles north of West Palm Beach. Sebastian-Vero Beach climbed up nine steps in the rankings — going from the 280th largest metro area in 2015 to the 271st largest in 2016.“The majority of the growth there since 2010 has been retirees, and it’s likely that is what’s fueling the recent spike in growth,” says Rich Doty, a research demographer at the University of Florida’s Bureau of Economic and Business Research.Doty says that as Sebastian-Vero Beach gets bigger, it’ll grapple more with issues such as roads, utilities and health care services.Based on projections from the Bureau of Economic and Business Research, those issues won’t be subsiding in the foreseeable future. The bureau predicts Sebastian-Vero Beach will be home to over 176,000 residents in 2030, up more than 16 percent from 2016.Aside from bragging rights, what does it mean for Sebastian-Vero Beach (or any other metro area) to soar in the population rankings? Doty says a higher population ranking could be used by economic development boosters to market the region.

Living in Sebastian-Vero Beach

Helene Caseltine, economic development director at the Indian River County Chamber of Commerce in Vero Beach, says the region has not experienced “explosive” growth like other areas of Florida have. But the one-county metro is attracting its fair share of new arrivals.“Many of those who move into our county are those who have previously vacationed here or have family here, primarily from the Northeast,” Caseltine says. “And as more baby boomers enter retirement, they like the easy and laid-back lifestyle offered in Indian River County. Plus our cost of living is much lower than the areas from where they’ve relocated.”Some of the people who are relocating to Sebastian-Vero Beach left after high school or college but are migrating back after “realizing that Indian River County is a great place to raise a family,” Caseltine says.

Five Reasons Vero Beach Is Your New Favorite Florida Destination

While too many of Florida’s waterfront cities have succumbed to claustrophobic overdevelopment, tacky tourist traps, and high-rises, Vero Beach remains the breath of fresh air. Though classified as a city, Vero, with a strict policy that no building can exceed four stories, feels more like a seaside village. It’s the rare place we didn’t know still existed in the Sunshine State.
 
Unique in many ways, Vero is a quietly sophisticated coastal hamlet where blue collar workers happily coexist with billionaires. Among its offerings: a world class art museum, top shelf street shopping, scenic natural wonders, and the best Atlantic beach south of Georgia. While most flock to Miami, Orlando, Tampa or the Keys (let them), Vero’s under-the-radar charms makes it the real resort getaway. It’s unsurprising that Oprah recently strolled the town’s Ocean Drive shopping district in broad daylight completely unnoticed.
 
I first visited Vero and the surrounding Indian River County in 2003, and each passing year I discover new pleasures in this unspoiled corner of Florida.

New home permits skyrocket in Indian River County

The pace of new home sales continues to pick up in Indian River County with 363 building permits issued this year so far, compared to about 230 in the same period last year.

The market “feels back to normal,” said Bill Handler, president of Port St. Lucie-based GHO Homes, one of the largest new home builders in the area with construction underway in a dozen subdivisions in and around Vero Beach.

Handler said demand is deepest in the $260,000 to $330,000 range and that he is seeing new home buyers coming from both out of state and South Florida, from cities such as Delray Beach and Fort Lauderdale. He also observed that buyers are moving because of a changed lifestyle, such as retirement or becoming empty nesters, and are “not coming here for the workforce.”

New houses are sprouting from Sebastian to the St. Lucie county line, according to a map prepared by Will Rice of the county’s GIS Department showing new construction.

Russ Lemmon - In Indian River Co., luxury homes on mainland starting to rival those found on island

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY - These are the type of homes you’d find on the barrier island.

They offer “32963”-caliber luxury in ZIP codes heretofore considered rural.

Who knew the area west of 74th Avenue would be such a draw for the luxury homebuyer?

“We’ve talked with a lot of folks, the typical island buyer, and they’re just tired of paying the high taxes and the high HOA (homeowners’ association) fees,” said John Genoni, co-owner of the local franchise of Arthur Rutenberg Homes. “They’re not necessarily looking to downsize, but they want to get away from that monthly expense.”

That’s why Genoni’s company, Beachland Homes Corp., decided to build an $825,000 model home on the mainland.

The model home is just west of 74th Avenue off Eighth Street — or in the 32966 ZIP code. The actual address is 984 E. Polo Grounds Drive. Yes, it’s within a polo community, but Genoni says a home could be built anywhere, including the barrier island.

“We’re an on-your-lot builder,” he said. “We were just looking for a good mainland location (for a model home).”

That being said, there are 27 available lots in the polo community.

GHO Homes Offers Innovative “Year To Close” Program For New Homebuyers at Fieldstone Ranch

 

According to Bill Handler, President of GHO Homes, the company’s “Year To Close” Program has been developed specifically for Fieldstone Ranch homebuyers who may have a home to sell, or need more time to move into a new home. “It’s ideal for homebuyers who know when they will retire, or when the kids are leaving high school, and that’s when they want to move. In some cases, it’s also the solution that allows homebuyers to plan and lock in a moving date, and avoid the stress of two moves or the expense of putting their things in storage.”

“On our new Fieldstone Ranch homes, GHO will delay the homebuyer’s obligation to close on their new Fieldstone Ranch home for up to one full year from the contract date. This offers multiple benefits to the buyer: they get today’s base price on the home of their choice, typically avoiding two or more price increases while also improving the chance for gaining built-in equity into the new home.”

“Homebuyers also get to choose their preferred home site now and take it off the market. They can take advantage of any promotions or specials that may be running at this time, and they can plan their move, their retirement, the sale of their existing home – whatever their unique circumstances may be – knowing exactly when their new Fieldstone Ranch home will be ready.”
