Neal Communities Starts The Fourth Quarter Strong

Nov. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- Southwest Florida – The rate of sales in October was anything but falling for Neal Communities. The company signed 29 contracts, with notably robust sales in Lakewood Ranch. There were 14 contracts in Central Park at Lakewood Ranch; 3 in River Sound, and 5 in Forest Creek. In the Lakewood Ranch Country Club, there were 2 in Edenmore, 2 in Greystone, and 2 in Belleisle at Country Club East. There was also 1 sale at Arlington Cove in Venice.

“Lakewood Ranch is leading the way in this recovery, especially in the country club communities. Momentum is strong and continuing to grow, and we are committed to being a part of the ongoing success of Lakewood Ranch,” said Neal Communities’ President, Pat Neal.

For example, Neal Communities is developing the Belleisle neighborhood in Country Club East in Lakewood Ranch. Open since February, there have already been 31 sales. The home builder is opening phase two now, featuring some of Neal’s most popular floor plans and design elements. While priced attractively from the high $100,000s, pricing is edging higher. The resort-style clubhouse and pool are within the heart of Belleisle.
