Yesterday it was splashed across papers nationwide. NBA legend Michael Jordan, is joining golf legend Tiger Woods as a resident of this area. It was reported that Bull & Bear LLC, the company managed by Mr. Jordan, has purchased two lots in an exclusive development, The Bear’s Club, for a little over $4.8 million.

So, yet another superstar joins the ranks of those who have taken advantage of low market prices to wisely invest in Jupiter properties. Some come for the weather, some for the golf, some to conveniently moor their yachts and soak in the glorious atmosphere of our little corner of paradise. And we welcome them all.

But I have to wonder, did Michael Jordan really want that kind of publicity when buying a home? Sure, it’s tough for him to avoid the paparazzi. But in my experience, the right professional can arrange showings and home sales with the utmost discretion. And when you consider that everyone, even the most public of figures, deserves a little personal privacy, discretion is a valuable commodity. Think about it. I know do, with every client, every sale.
