Neal Communities continues expansion into Hillsborough County with entrance into FishHawk Ranch
Neal Communities (Neal Communities.com), southwest Florida’s premier, private homebuilder, is continuing its expansion into Hillsborough County, opening two new model homes in Tampa’s FishHawk Ranch community.
Neal Communities made its debut in the Hillsborough County market last year. Since that time, the company experienced a 6-percent growth rate and experienced an exceptional hiring period, adding 22 employees to the team during the last four months of 2015. Recently, the homebuilder brought on 10 sales associates, four builders, three pool builders, a design gallery coordinator and a vice president of construction. Neal Communities currently employs 252 people across all of its companies.
The 76 villas Neal Communities is constructing mark the company’s first entrance into FishHawk Ranch, a 3,000-acre master-planned community. Prospective residents will be able to tour two versatile villa model homes.
The 1,524-square-foot Tidewater model is a split-plan with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a den and a two-car garage. The 1,434-square-foot Crystal Sand model is an open-concept plan with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a two-car garage.
“We can’t wait for homeowners to step foot into our striking Tidewater and Crystal Sand models at FishHawk Ranch,” said Neal Communities Director of Sales Nicole Brooks. “The real sense of community at FishHawk Ranch coupled with its ideal location in Hillsborough County make this community a standout.”
FishHawk Ranch, which offers family-friendly events, a sense of community among homeowners and 25 miles of nature trails, is the first certified green new-home community in Hillsborough County.
The community offers single-family homes, townhomes, luxury homes and homes tailored to people ages 55 and over. Newland Communities, based in San Diego, Calif. is the developer.
