If you sit behind Belle Glade its beautiful. Parallel fairways and nothing but fairways. Walk around Mallory and there are hundreds of houses around the course. I played Sarasota and Encinada or whatever it's called and the courses wrap around themselves too. The strategy of designing a course to maximize the number of course view building lots per acre has shifted.
Maybe the golf view houses are the hardest to sell.
Maybe it's less expensive to build a course in a smaller area. This leaves more space for smaller houses that are easier to sell.
I mean if you had a lake you would build as many houses as you could around the lake. Conventional wisdom is the same with a golf course.
I guess I am a little bored and it's hard to think of something interesting that isn't centered on safety.
