Ocean Reef Club, a 2,500-acre private community in Key Largo, closed more than $80 million in real estate transactions in just under three months, the firm announced today.

From December 1 to February 20, 2013, Ocean Reef closed $83.4  million worth of condominiums, single-family homes, lots and boat docks — a record for the company — a statement from the developer today said.

“We are experiencing tremendous growth and activity across all categories and price points,” Paul Astbury, president of Ocean Reef Club, said in the statement. “Ocean Reef offers the best value proposition of South Florida private clubs by far, with unparalleled access to medical, cultural, educational, creative and athletic facilities.”
