The Property
Homes that offer experiences for the occupants should be prioritized. Location. Location. Location. Examples of an "experience":
Themed Homes
Pool Homes
Beach Homes
Movie-theatre Homes
Homes with bars built into them
Creative interior design homes that really provide interactive experiences for the guests [similar to that of a themed home]
Finally, Mansions. Seriously though who doesn't like a good mansion party and event house?
I guess, in Brevard County, Florida size really does matter.
