While searching for the Bay Area home of your dreams, you may note that many of the best options around here are situated in luxury communities. Whether an urban complex or a sprawling tract of custom homes, these communities are designed to enhance the lives of those who reside within them.
Let’s explore why buying in a luxury community may be worthwhile:
Security
Most luxury communities offer more security than the typical neighborhood. Some are gated, and some have regular private security patrols. These communities have the resources to invest into monitoring their grounds, granting residents great peace of mind.
Privacy
Individuals of high net worth and others who require privacy for themselves and their families, like celebrities, often find refuge in luxury communities. The built-in exclusivity of these communities helps residents feel at home knowing their neighbors seek the same degree of privacy—and they’re willing to pay a premium for it.
Resort-Like Amenities
Because luxury communities are focused on providing a sense of privacy and security, they usually include on-site amenities which allow residents the convenience of not having to venture out of the neighborhood. These amenities can range from green spaces, trails, or swimming pools to a miniature town complete with fitness, recreational, and social facilities. Some even offer laundromat, barista, and florist services!
