Brightline station likely to increase property values in and around Stuart

STUART, Fla. — It's a story we've talked about again and again: the housing crisis in Florida.

Families from Palm Beach County to the Treasure Coast are getting priced out of their homes, and prices could rise again as Brightline plans to build a stop in Stuart.

Realtor Michael Caputo said prior to the high speed rail service announcing a Treasure Coast station, homes near the train tracks weren't easy to sell due to the noise.
