Story summary

Michael Dell, through his real estate investment firm BDT & MSD Partners, has seen significant success with luxury condominiums in Boca Raton, Florida. The project, known as The Boca Raton, has sold approximately 40% of the units since its launch a few months ago. This marks the first time the century-old resort property is offering residential spaces for sale. Prices for the 75 planned homes range from $8.95 million to over $20 million, with three-bedroom to five-bedroom layouts available.

Initially expected to start at around $4 million per unit according to earlier reports by Bloomberg, the actual prices have doubled or more. The project includes various types of units such as terrace apartments, penthouses, and private villas complete with personal gardens, plunge pools, and outdoor kitchens. Residents will benefit from extensive amenities including butler service, childcare, pet care, a rooftop pool, spa facilities, gym, and golf simulator.

The rapid sales are indicative of strong demand for high-end luxury real estate in the area despite the steep prices.
