Boca Chase Homes 2018 First Half

Have you been looking into Lynchburg real estate agents? Wanting to relocate and buy your dream house? Well, this could be the perfect place for you. Boca Chase includes two areas of single family homes to the west and east along with some 55+ senior communities in the middle.

Western Boca Chase

Thirteen single family homes sold in the western part of Boca Chase with prices ranging from a high of nearly $460,000 down to $265,000. This section of Boca Chase has less reported crime, perhaps because it’s further back or maybe criminals fear getting trapped in a place with only one way out. It’s one of the safest non-gated communities in West Boca and offers some great bargains for buyers.

Two somewhat larger houses sold for $450K or more. 11061 Lakeaire Circle in Impressions III closed at $459,000 with four bedrooms in 2700 square feet. The house was fully renovated with some nice features in the kitchen including a deep sink and a wine refrigerator. Selling at $450,000 even was Coral Bay’s 18116 Blue Lake Way, also a four bedroom with an extra full bath in 2800 square feet. This one had fewer updates but a waterfront lot.

A total of five homes sold in Impressions I, with three-bedroom 21421 Millbrook Court selling for the most at $415,000. That house took over 7 months to sell but the patient seller was rewarded with a good price for only 2100 square feet.

The low end prices were both in the Impressions subdivisions. At bottom was 21271 Sawmill Court, a foreclosed bank-owned 1900 square foot 3-bedroom that needs some work. Also below $300,000 was 11225 Jasmine Hill Circle, a 3-bedroom with 1700 square feet with a barebones listing from a Miami realtor indicating that the house needs TLC and upgrades.

Other than those two troubled homes, the floor in the western part of Boca Chase seems to be around $350,000. 21230 Sawmill Court sold for $350,900 with only two bedrooms in 1700 square feet. It did have some nice remodeling.

Eastern Boca Chase

The eastern section of Boca Chase is mostly single family homes with a small section of townhomes, though no townhomes sold in the first half of 2018.

Only one home sold over the $400K mark, 18484 102nd Way S in Bentbrook. It’s a four bedroom with 2300 square feet and it sold in just three days. The house is in an odd location, backed up the Florence Fuller center.

A few homes sold in the upper 300s. 10173 182nd Court S in Barrington went for $390,000 with four bedrooms in 2000 square feet. That house had extensive remodeling with some nice finishes, though the black kitchen appliances may have clashed for some buyers. It took three months to sell.

Two more of those homes sold in Bentbrook. 10331 186th Court S ($381,150, 3 beds, 2500 sq.ft.) and 10377 185th Street S ($380,000, 4 beds, 2300 sq.ft.).

The lower end held up better than in western Boca Chase with two smaller 1400 square foot houses in Hidden Lake selling for $318,000 and $310,000. Nothing sold below $310K, but there were no REO or short sale transactions.

Boca Vista

We include Boca Vista in our Boca Chase report. It’s a small gated community of thirty homes. 10184 Boca Vista Drive sold for $385,000 with three bedrooms in 2000 square feet.

Boca Chase Home Prices Rise

The average home sale price in Boca Chase rose to over $341,000 for 2017. Prices ranged from the low $200s in Greenbriar to the mid $400s in the various Corals and Impressions on the west end of Boca Chase Drive. The average price is somewhat misleading as it includes the 55+ communities of Greenbriar and Waterberry, which sell for less. Removing those raises the average to $380,000.
Nearly sixty single family homes sold for the year. The lowest price was an even $200,000 for a 1400 square foot 2-bedroom in Greenbriar at 18075 102nd S Way. A total of twenty homes sold under $300,000. Twenty-eight houses sold for prices between $310,000 and $398,000.

At the high end for the 55+ homes, 18108 102nd Way South sold for $310,000. The cul de sac house has 1700 square feet.
Outside the 55+ homes, only two houses sold for less than $300,000 and one of those was an REO home coming out of foreclosure, while the other was 400 square feet smaller than most of the others. These houses averaged $170 per square foot. Sales happened in an average of 6 weeks or less.

Twelve houses sold for over $400,000, all of them with four bedrooms. Two homes broke the $450,000 level.

Venezuelan Fugitive Arrested in Boca Chase

Update: Boca Raton Police advise that the arrest began with a routine traffic stop, during which the officer discovered the warrant.

A Venezuelan man was arrested Wednesday morning in Boca Chase on a Puerto Rican warrant for a multi-million dollar fraud.
The short version of the underlying criminal case is available in English from the Associated Press, but there is much greater detail in Spanish from the Puerto Rico Department of Justice.
Da Silva Castro and a Venezuelan associate allegedly defrauded Betteroads Asphalt Corp. (subsidiary of Empresas Díaz) of $7.8 million in 2011. The DoJ indicates they formed a fake corporation and set up a false sale of 100,000 barrels of liquid asphalt (at $78/barrel) that never existed. The funds were transferred to Swiss bank accounts.
It’s not clear why it took five years but a warrant was issued for their arrest in 2016. The associate was in custody in Venezuela at the time and Da Silva Castro’s location was unknown.
The address listed on the blotter entry appears to have been rented around the time the warrants were issued. We have reached out to the police and to the Realtors associated with the rental to see if we can find out more details.
The arrest was reported in Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Dia.
