FORT MYERS, Fla. (July 26, 2016) – Murex Properties, a Fort Myers-based company that owns and manages premier manufactured-housing communities throughout the United States, has acquired the 278-home site manufactured-home community Heartland Estates in Haines City, FL for $12,525,000. The 55-plus community was purchased through an exclusive association with Northwestern Mutual. The property is nestled on a ridge, overlooking Lake Hester in central Florida, approximately one-half mile west of U.S. 27.“Heartland Estates provides its residents an outstanding active-retirement lifestyle, and is a good fit with our corporate culture which counts the satisfaction of our residents as a measure of success,” said Murex Properties President Steve Adler. “It is one of Florida’s premier communities with a well landscaped, low-density setting that allows for large lots.”
Heartland Estates provides an amenity-rich lifestyle with a 5,000-square-foot clubhouse, with a veranda overlooking both the heated swimming pool and the lake. The clubhouse and amenities include a ballroom, fitness center, kitchen, library, billiards, shuffleboard courts and horseshoes.
Heartland Estates is the fifth community Murex has purchased in conjunction with Northwestern Mutual. Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance is a AAA-rated company by Fitch and Moody’s with $203.5 billion in investments.
