Neal Communities Continues Strong Sales in Third Quarter

LAKEWOOD RANCH, Fla., October 21, 2026 – Neal Communities and its associated brands, Neal Signature Homes and SimplyDwell Homes, reported another strong quarter for new home sales, with 228 new home sales across the region, exceeding its monthly goal of 213 homes by seven percent.

By brand, Neal Communities exceeded its plan by 13 percent, while Neal Signature Homes beat its plan by 30 percent and SimplyDwell Homes achieved its sales goals for the quarter.

“Our ongoing success demonstrates that buyers continue to appreciate the locations of our communities, the thought we put into community design, and the quality of our home construction,” says Blake Lindsey, Vice President of Sales for Neal Communities. “Those qualities matter when buyers are deciding where to call home. These results also reflect the hard work of our sales teams, who help buyers find a home and community that fit their lifestyle.”

Neal Communities reported that the Venice- and Sarasota-area communities had particularly strong third-quarter performances, with Venice-area communities exceeding their Q3 sales plan by 55 percent, with Boca Royale at Wellen Park leading the way with 20 homes sold and Sarasota-area communities exceeding their Q3 sales plan by 11 percent, with Palm Grove leading the way with 27 homes sold.

“The return of seasonal residents gives us more opportunities to connect with buyers who are considering a second home or a permanent move to the area,” Blake adds. “Our Q3 performance across Neal Communities, Neal Signature Homes and Simply Dwell Homes gives us an encouraging foundation heading into the season. We’re focused on building on that momentum by helping buyers understand their options and feel confident taking the next step.”
