What avenir + does

Avenir is the master developer of a 4,752-acre master-planned community in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, operating under Avenir Development, LLC and Avenir Holdings (founded 2012 by principals Rosa Schechter and Danny Lopez after acquiring the former Vavrus Ranch). The development will ultimately deliver approximately 3,900 luxury homes across multiple gated neighborhoods, a 400,000-square-foot retail and 2,000,000-square-foot office Town Center (with Publix opening May 2026 as anchor), a 200,000-square-foot medical campus called Health Park at Avenir (a joint venture with Sina Companies and Jupiter Medical Center, groundbreaking June 2026), an approved 300-room hotel, and a 2,400+ acre conservation area forming a regional wildlife corridor. At the core is the flagship Panther National enclave — an ultra-luxury private golf community within Avenir, developed by Centaur US Holdings (Dominik Senn) with a Jack Nicklaus/Justin Thomas-designed 18-hole course plus par-3 short course, featuring 218 Tesla-powered estates priced from $3.5M to $12M; Panther National was ranked #3 private course in Florida and #4 residential course in the U.S. by Golfweek (2026).

The business model centers on land monetization through seven anchor homebuilder partners (Toll Brothers, Kenco Communities, GL Homes, Kolter Homes, DiVosta, Akel Homes, WL Homes) who purchase lots and sell finished homes across price tiers from mid-$500K entry-level luxury to $12M ultra-luxury estates. Avenir's revenue streams include one-time land sales to builders, recurring leasing from Town Center retail/office and future hotel operations, and shared economics from the Panther National JV. Distribution runs through on-site builder sales centers, model home driving tours, and the avenirpbg.com digital presence. The community differentiates through integrated infrastructure (Tesla solar roofs and Powerwall+ at Panther National, fiber-to-home, advanced stormwater, underground utilities) and lifestyle amenities (golf, working farm, dog parks, 4+ miles of groomed nature trails, clubhouses with pools/fitness/tennis), supported by municipal approvals and a $14M public improvement bond.

The company operates exclusively in Palm Beach County, Florida, and its multi-decade buildout pipeline, third-party validated product quality (NAHB Silver Award for Solana Bay at Avenir; Golfweek rankings), and the $191.2M Panther National golf-course sale (July 2026) collectively position it as a large-scale, institutional-grade master developer rather than a speculative builder. Its primary risk vectors are concentration on a small set of builder counterparties, dependency on continued luxury housing demand in South Florida, and exposure to hurricane and climate risk inherent to Florida real estate.
