Hillcrest is an established community in central Hollywood, Broward County, built on land that traces to a mid-century country club. For decades it was known for a cluster of condominium high-rises in an active-adult (55-plus) setting, the first of its kind in Broward when it was built, arranged around a golf course.
The golf course closed in 2016 and the land was redeveloped, adding hundreds of newer single-family homes and townhomes, marketed as Parkview at Hillcrest. As a result, the community today has two distinct layers: older condominium buildings and newer homes, with different ages, associations, rules, and cost profiles.
That split is the most important thing to understand. The original high-rise condos are decades old and were developed as 55-plus active-adult buildings, while the newer Parkview homes are recent construction and generally not age-restricted. A buyer needs to know exactly which layer, and which building or section, a home belongs to.
Diligence follows the layer. For an older condo, it is the building's reserves, the monthly fee and what it covers, and Florida's milestone-inspection and structural-reserve rules on buildings three stories or higher. For a newer Parkview home, it is the association dues and rules, the lot and floor plan, and a standard inspection. Central Hollywood location is the shared draw; the building or section finances and rules are the deal.
