Why speculate on the negative effects of increased density and the “phantom” nursing home you and your group have created? All you have done is try to scare people with rumors. In fact some of the things your group say are just not true. A thriving 18 hole country club around the corner from your house increases your home value more than living on a 27 hole course that is dying. There is not enough golfers to support 27 holes. Frankly your condescending attitude you have in every response you have ever written is very offensive. You act as if “your” property is the keystone of the whole neighborhood.

I would love to compare apples to apples and compare the increase in the average sales prices of Killearn Estates homes to others in the Northeast part of Tallahassee. I suspect in a comparison like this, the increase in the average sale price of Killearn Estates homes would be more modest. This could be attributed to the age of the homes and to the fact that some of the purchased homes were foreclosures, but I’m willing to bet the golf course “debate” IS having a negative effect. Rather than speculate on the effect a refurbished 18-hole course and new clubhouse, which may or may not happen, will have on Killearn Estates home prices, perhaps we should focus on the effects increased housing density in the form of apartments, more traffic, and the environmental impact of a nursing home, built smack dab in the middle of the neighborhood, may have. Watch what happens to prices then.

Wonder if there was a new clubhouse and 18 holes of premium golf around the corner would selling prices be even higher?
