Moving Up to Downtown Boca Raton

200 East Boasts More Than $23 Million in Sales Since January 2011

Increasing sales momentum of the residences at 200 East has translated to more than $23 million in sales since January 2011. Buyers are flocking from West Boca, looking to move up to the new downtown Boca Raton.

"With strong interest from local buyers, the building has reached nearly full occupancy," said Lon Tabatchnick, developer with the Lojeta Group. "Interest has been considerable throughout the year."

Nestler Poletto Sotheby's International Realty team was hired to market the property. Their efforts have helped position 200 East and its luxury lifestyle ahead of other developments in downtown Boca Raton.

"The number one aspect in real estate is location. This property is in the middle of it all," said Russell Yellin, director of sales for 200 East. "200 East is luxury lifestyle living without the golf course maintenance fees or the drive to the restaurants and downtown. It is the perfect place to live."

The people who have purchased residences are looking to embrace an upscale luxury lifestyle, said Ricki Auerbach, vice president of Communications and Marketing for The Lojeta Group. "They buy at 200 East because they want to have access to the best restaurants, shopping and cultural venues in Boca, while maintaining their chic lifestyle," she said. "They purchase here because no other community in Boca offers the same experience -- it's about downtown luxury living."

The remaining two and three-bedroom residences are priced from $675,000 to more than $2 million.

"Buyers from West Boca and New York have discovered the luxury of living in downtown Boca -- it is a place they want to stay," said Tabatchnick. "The downtown is experiencing a renaissance; it's a quality of life not available elsewhere in South Florida."

The popularity of 200 East has resulted in tremendous momentum. With 88% occupancy, the best views and most desirable floor designs are already in limited supply. "Ongoing demand will quickly outstrip the supply," Tabatchnick said.
