Few opportunities in Cape Coral today are turning heads as much as pre-construction property. While not unique in Florida; Cape Coral's history makes these opportunities new and revolutionary to this market.

 

The Way It Was

Cape Coral was founded by a developer with a large sense of scale. Over 100 square miles of land was prepared, 400+ miles of salt and freshwater canals were dredged, and streets were paved in the 1960s. As a single developer, Gulf American Corporation divided the land into lots and sold them individually to owners. Rather than fill out specific neighborhoods, potential owners could literally fly over all of the property and pick a lot they liked and build a home.

 

This random development of individual homes, sometimes the only home on a street, led to a scarcity of large blocks of available land for anyone trying to develop a unified neighborhood. Until recently, traditional developers turned away from Cape Coral in favor of Fort Myers, North Fort Myers and southern Lee County.

 

Times Are Changing

In the late nineties, however, the population of Cape Coral skyrocketed. Commercial investors could no longer ignore the potential of over 100,000 residents who needed groceries, furnishings, appliances and more, and who preferred to buy from "big box" stores across the river.

 

Once a few future minded investors paved the way, traditional development (with its Cape Coral twists) began to flourish. But the market is still new, and very promising for those willing to take on the slightly different method of building large commercial and residential properties in Cape Coral.
