CN Hotels, led by Jayesh Patel, owns a number of different hotels throughout the Southeast, including a Homestead 2 Suites in Dania Beach, a Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Hialeah, and a Best Western Plus in North Miami Beach.

Homebuilders are increasingly buying land in Homestead as more homebuyers are turning to the area due to the rising costs of single-family homes in other parts of Miami-Dade County.

Last April, Ecosteel USA, a construction and engineering firm and building supplier, proposed a massive, $240 million steel mill complex on about 124 acres of county-owned land in Homestead, outside the Homestead Air Reserve Base.
