Anthony Spitaleri, REALTOR® | EXP Realty

Anthony Spitaleri is a licensed REALTOR® with EXP Realty, focused exclusively on the Davie single-family market. He is active in the Davie community now — Davie-Cooper City Chamber of Commerce, volunteer at Bit-by-Bit Therapeutic Riding Center — and works in this market specifically because he knows it at a level a generalist covering all of Broward County cannot.

He also made the Miami-to-Davie move himself, so when buyers ask what the transition actually looks like, the answer comes from direct experience, not a market report.

Why Buyers Choose Davie, Florida

Space and land that does not exist elsewhere in Broward

Davie maintains equestrian zoning across significant portions of the town. Large lots and acreage properties are available in the middle of a major South Florida metro area. Imagination Farms offers horse-zoned acreage. Long Lake Ranches has estate homes on oversized lots. Rolling Hills has mature properties with real space between neighbors. None of this exists in Miami or Fort Lauderdale at comparable price points.

Quality of life without isolation

Davie has its own community identity. Local events, Vista View Park, Wolf Lake, the equestrian trails near Tree Tops Park, and Bit-by-Bit Therapeutic Riding Center. It is a town with its own character, 25 minutes from Fort Lauderdale and 45 minutes from Miami.

Top-rated schools and university access

Broward County Public Schools, Nova Southeastern University, and Broward College are all in or immediately adjacent to Davie. Families relocating with children consistently find the school quality strong relative to other South Florida markets at comparable price points.

Value relative to Miami

A budget that buys a two-bedroom condo in Miami Beach buys a four-bedroom home on a large lot in Davie. Less density, more space, and a different pace while remaining in the same regional metro area.

Davie Neighborhoods for Relocation Buyers

Long Lake Ranches

Gated estate community with custom and semi-custom homes on oversized lots and private lake access. Estate-quality living within 30 minutes of Fort Lauderdale. When a home here is priced correctly and marketed properly, it does not sit.

Imagination Farms

Equestrian-zoned acreage in the heart of South Florida. Boarding facilities, riding trails, and the ability to keep horses on your property in Broward County. Buyers come from across the country for this. Inventory is limited and demand is consistent.

Rolling Hills

One of Davie’s most established residential communities. Mature trees, larger lots, quiet streets. Families relocating from urban South Florida who want a real backyard and real space end up here regularly.

University Area and Stirling Road Corridor

Single-family neighborhoods near Nova Southeastern University and Broward College offering strong value for buyers entering the Davie market. Popular with buyers who need proximity to major employment centers in western Broward County.

What to Expect When You Move to Davie

Buyers coming from Miami Beach, Brickell, or Coral Gables consistently find significantly more space per dollar in Davie. The difference is not marginal. It is a different category of living. Larger lots, quieter streets, and a community that has its own identity rather than existing purely in relation to the cities around it.

The commute is manageable. 25 minutes to Fort Lauderdale is real almost all the time. 45 minutes to Miami is real in most conditions. For buyers who need to access either city regularly, Davie works.

The schools are a genuine draw. Several Broward County Public School zones in Davie consistently outperform county averages, and the presence of Nova Southeastern University and Broward College adds educational infrastructure that most comparable South Florida towns do not have.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are people relocating to Davie, Florida?

Davie attracts buyers looking for more space, equestrian lifestyle, top-rated schools, and South Florida access without Miami density. Large lots, equestrian zoning in Imagination Farms, and single-family homes with land make Davie a destination for buyers who have exhausted what Miami and Fort Lauderdale can offer at their price point.

What is the real estate market like in Davie, FL?

The Davie single-family market is competitive, particularly in Long Lake Ranches, Imagination Farms, and Rolling Hills. Inventory is limited and well-priced homes move quickly. Working with a local specialist who knows active and off-market inventory is a significant advantage over searching listings remotely.

What neighborhoods should I consider when relocating to Davie?

The right neighborhood depends on your priorities. Long Lake Ranches for estate living with privacy and lake access. Imagination Farms for equestrian acreage. Rolling Hills for established family community feel. University area for strong value and employment access. Anthony will match your specific situation to the right community.

Can I buy a Davie home remotely or from out of state?

Yes. Anthony regularly works with out-of-state and international relocation buyers. Detailed video walkthroughs, direct neighborhood guidance, and digital transaction management make the process manageable from anywhere. He will tell you what the listing does not show and what the neighborhood is actually like before you make a decision.

What should I know about moving from Miami to Davie?

More space per dollar, equestrian and land options unavailable in Miami, lower density with better school access, and a community identity that most Miami neighborhoods lack — all within 45 minutes of the city. Anthony made this move himself and can give you a direct account of what the transition looks like in practice.

How are the schools in Davie, Florida?

Davie is within the Broward County Public Schools district and has several well-rated elementary and middle schools. Nova Southeastern University, Broward College, and nearby Florida Atlantic University make the area a strong choice for families with both K-12 and higher education priorities.

How is Davie different from other Broward County cities?

Davie has maintained equestrian zoning and a distinct town identity that most Broward cities lack. Larger lots, acreage properties, local events, and genuine community institutions make it different from Pembroke Pines, Miramar, or Plantation. For buyers looking for South Florida access with a different pace of life, Davie is in a category by itself.
