Delray Beach, United States - June 7, 2017 /PressCable/ —
Mangrove Realty, a boutique Delray Beach real estate brokerage specializing in the sale and rental of condos, homes and townhouses, has released a statement on buying a home with a golf course view. The statement, written by Ross Stern, a realtor who guides people when buying and selling homes in the region, acknowledges that while a golf course makes for a spectacular view, many have been turned into hot, new housing developments, especially locally.
More information is available at http://www.mangroverealty.com.
Released in May, the statement centers on Mangrove Realty’s understanding of Delray Beach real estate and surrounding areas. Founded in December 2008, Mangrove Realty has 12 realtors working for the brokerage, with them seeking to hire two more to keep up with demand. As such, the Delray Beach real estate firm know the area extremely well and have seen many golf course’s converted into housing estates over their years of operation.
According to several recent reports, vacant land in Florida is becoming scarce, and golf courses are struggling. Over the last few years, golf course conversions have occurred in Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Pembroke Pines, Tamarac and many other Florida communities.
The latest development proposal is in Oakland Park and will see the Oak Tree Golf Course converted into 850 homes if approved. Residents that currently live on the outskirts of this golf course don’t want it to go because they love the view and the wildlife. But, with the costs of maintaining golf courses becoming too much, they are shutting down everywhere.
Consequently, annual figures released in March by the National Golf Foundation indicated that 211 courses in the U.S. have permanently closed, leaving a staggering 14,117 18-holed courses left.
Servicing Delray Beach and surrounding areas such as Apollo Beach, Florida City, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Tampa and Yeehaw Junction, Mangrove Realty sell and rent one and two bedroom condos and townhouses up to luxury six bedroom mansions on expanses of land with ocean views. Therefore, there is a home to suit everyone’s budget and purpose.
When asked about their Delray Beach real estate firm, a spokesperson for Mangrove Realty said, “We currently have 12 busy agents. We need to hire two additional agents to handle the overflow of business. Of course, we only hire experienced and licensed Realtors®. We put our high demand down to our 5-star service and reviews.”

MANILA, Philippines — Butcher Boy has earned a Bib Gourmand distinction in the 2027 Michelin Guide Philippines, moving up from its Michelin-Selected status in the 2026 edition and joining a select group of restaurants recognized for serving quality food at accessible prices. The recognition was announced during the official awarding ceremony at the Manila Marriott Hotel on Thursday, Oct. 29, attended by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Butcher Boy was among only two restaurants promoted from the Michelin-Selected category to Bib Gourmand this year. The distinction recognizes establishments that offer good-quality food at reasonable prices. Butcher Boy Philippines CEO Dino Chua received the award, marking another milestone for the restaurant, which has continued to establish its presence in the local dining scene. The recognition follows the restaurant's opening of its new and expanded location at Alabang West Parade along Daang Hari Road in Muntinlupa City in 2026. Led by Chua, the move marked a new chapter for the brand, allowing it to reach more diners in southern Metro Manila while maintaining its signature contemporary Asian-fusion cuisine. Originally founded by Michelin-starred chef Andrew Walsh of Singapore's acclaimed Cure, Butcher Boy built its following at its former Makati location before relocating to Alabang to accommodate a bigger dining space and connect with a wider community. Its culinary approach combines Southeast Asian flavors with Western cooking techniques, offering dishes such as its signature chicken laksa dumplings, fried chicken bao, Asian tacos, pork adobo and a variety of steaks, alongside carefully crafted cocktails. The chicken laksa dumplings were among the dishes highlighted by Michelin inspectors. During the restaurant's grand opening, Marketing Head Aubrey S. Mojica described its concept as “where east meets west,” emphasizing that while the menu had been expanded, the restaurant remained committed to preserving the quality, atmosphere and dining experience that patrons had come to expect. Mojica also underscored the importance of customer service, saying the restaurant's identity goes beyond its food to include the experience it provides to diners. With its latest Michelin recognition, Butcher Boy strengthens its position in the Philippine dining scene, bringing its combination of Asian-fusion flavors, steaks and accessible dining to the Alabang community. Butcher Boy is located at Alabang West Parade, Daang Hari Road, Muntinlupa City. For reservations, call 0939-868-0531.
