New construction at **The Atlantic Club in Long Branch** is attracting serious attention — and for good reason.

But buying new construction is not the same as buying a resale. Pricing, views, floor plans, upgrades, timing, rental rules, closing costs, building structure, and long-term value all matter.

Before you walk into a sales office unrepresented, call me. Or give the sales office my name if you just happen to walk-in at the spur-of-the-moment and we can pick it up from there.

With my background in real estate, construction, engineering, and luxury coastal properties, I can help you ask the right questions, evaluate the real opportunity, and protect your interests from contract to closing.

Call Bruce Germinsky today, I will guide you every step of the way. (908) 463-3559

🚨 FLORIDA BUYERS: THIS COULD BE A MAJOR WAKE-UP CALL 🚨

Florida may be moving toward one of the most significant homeowner tax breaks in years.

Gov. Ron DeSantis has proposed increasing Florida’s homestead exemption from the current $50,000 to $250,000 — with a future path toward $500,000.

What could that mean?

Using a simple 1.5% estimated property tax rate:

✅ $250,000 exemption = approx. $3,000/year in potential savings
✅ $500,000 exemption = approx. $6,750/year in potential savings

But here is the urgent part:

The proposal also includes a provision that could make new Florida residents after November ineligible for the larger exemption for their first five years.

That means buyers sitting on the fence may want to act now — before they risk getting locked out of a major homestead tax benefit for five years.

This is exactly why timing matters.

South Florida is already in a buyer’s market in many segments, but the best opportunities do not wait forever. Between pricing, inventory, building condition, reserves, inspections, insurance, and now potential property tax changes, you need guidance from someone who understands both the real estate market and the construction/financial due diligence behind the purchase.

Thinking about buying in Florida?

Call me today before the market reacts.

🏗️ WEST BOCA IS BOOMING — Here's what's being built in your backyard

Nearly 1,000 new homes are coming to West Boca Raton, and the pace of development is accelerating fast. As someone who lives and breathes the Boca, Delray & Boynton Beach market every day, I want to make sure my community stays informed about what's reshaping our neighborhoods.

Here's a breakdown of the major projects underway:

🏡 LOTUS EDGE (Lyons Road)
GL Homes is building 649 luxury single-family homes on a 263-acre site along Lyons Road. With contemporary designs and price tags ranging from $1.7M to $3M, this is one of South Florida's most premium new communities. Construction is well underway.

🏘️ GL HOMES EXPANSION (Lyons Road — opposite side)
Across the street, GL Homes has a second project in the works: 322 additional homes on a separate tract, bringing their combined West Boca footprint to nearly 1,000 residences.

🔒 MERAVITA (West Boca)
Toll Brothers is developing a new gated community on the site of a former packing plant — another sign that demand for West Boca real estate remains exceptionally strong.

⚠️ BOCA LAGO PROJECT (Proposed — and contested)
Developer Lennar has proposed converting portions of the Boca Lago Golf & Country Club into a 700+ home development. Residents are pushing back hard over concerns about traffic, density, and the loss of green space. This one is far from settled — and the community is making its voice heard.

📍 What does all this mean for YOU?
More inventory, shifting values, and a rapidly evolving market — whether you're buying, selling, or just keeping an eye on your home's value, now is the time to stay ahead of it.
