BPO Dynamics in New Smyrna Beach
NSB commercial fundamentals run on a sub-1% office vacancy rate, a tight Canal Street boutique retail core, a premium STR / hospitality market east of the Intracoastal, and the long-horizon DPIC 1,618-acre PUD at I-95 / SR 44. BPOs here separate barrier-island product (significantly higher insurance load and STR upside) from inland SR 44 corridor product. Land BPOs require entitlement-state analysis.
