[1]Neal Communities Sells 30 Homes in 30 Days.
Neal Communities reported as of the end of April the firm sold 30 homes during April and more than 85 homes so far this year. The company has 15 signed contracts at The Country Clubs in Lakewood Ranch including Silverwood, Country Club East, Thornhill, Greystone and Edenmore year-to-date. Prices range from the high $200s to over $1 Million. Recently opened Forest Creek had 6 contracts with prices ranging from $175,000 to $240,000.
“This is the signal we were looking for that the market has already stabilized and is on a steady course up,” states Neal Communities’ President Pat Neal. “By building in desirable neighborhoods and pricing the homes fairly, we’ve struck a chord with today’s buyers. They are looking for long-term value.”
Opened just over a year ago River Sound in Bradenton is over 65% sold out. In April 7 contracts were written in the subdivision. The Mandalay Community located on Lockwood Ridge Road is nearly sold out.
“We’re encouraged by the market signals right now as we continually sell homes in the higher end price ranges; in fact, our average price is now over $300,000,” explains Sales Director, David Hunihan. “These are savvy buyers who recognize market trends and see the value of building a new home that will best fit their lifestyle needs.”
