Posted by Highland Homes on February 10, 2012 | Comments (3)

orlando new homesIf you are considering the purchase of Orlando or Tampa new homes, now is the time to buy. Not only are we hearing positive news about a strong housing market recovery with the potential for home price increases in the near future, but here at Highland Homes we also have a few popular communities that are about to sell out including The Greens at Hidden Creek, Andover and Deer Creek.

To celebrate the success of these communities, we’re offering a closeout special: $5,000 in FREE upgrades on the last remaining home sites. However, you must act fast because this incentive is only valid through Feb. 19, 2012!

The Greens at Hidden Creek in Zephyrhills is a fabulous new home community with a variety of three to five bedroom plans. Homes boast 1,210 to 2,677 square feet, and are priced from the $130,000s. The community offers a quiet, country-like setting and a laid back lifestyle with convenient access to the entertainment and employment opportunities in downtown Tampa.

Those in the market for Orlando new homes will love Andover, located off I-4 and US 27 in Davenport. The community features affordable new homes from the $120,000s with three to five bedrooms and up to 2,827 square feet. However, you must act fast because there are only two home sites left at this desirable community. Read More→

Zephyr Park Sprayground in Zephyrhills

Beat the Heat at Zephyr Park

School may be drawing near, but the summer heat is still in full swing. If you’re searching for a place to cool off and enjoy the rest of summer near your Tampa home, then look no farther than the WaterPlay sprayground at Zephyr Park.

Located at the 34-acre Zephyr Park in downtown Zephyrhills, WaterPlay is a fun way for you and your kids to cool off this summer. The 7,000 square foot sprayground features everything you need to beat the heat including fountain jets, falling buckets of water, arches that shoot water and soaker cannons.

But, the sprayground isn’t the only thing to love at Zephyr Park. Other park amenities include five lighted tennis courts, handball courts, fishing, picnic pavilions with tables, grills, horseshoe pits, playground equipment and a lakeside fitness path. Or, if you’re just looking for a place to relax and enjoy that book you’ve been trying to finish all summer, then seek the shade of the park’s many oak trees for a peaceful afternoon. Read More→

Posted by Highland Homes on July 28, 2011 | Comments (0)

Dance Day TampaThose looking for a fun outing this weekend near their Tampa new homes are in for quite a treat. The Creative Movement Company and The University of Tampa are joining forces to host a “Celebration of National Dance Day 2011” with Dance Day Tampa this Sunday, July 31 from noon to 7 p.m.

Held at the Edison Building on the University of Tampa campus, Dance Day Tampa will have free dance and fitness classes for all ages. Don’t worry if you feel like you have two left feet – Both advanced and non-dancers are encouraged to come. It’s not about your ability to bust a move; it’s about having fun and promoting health and fitness awareness.

There will be two stations, with classes held every hour for a variety of dance styles including ballet, hip-hop, jazz, salsa and more. Those who want to participate are asked to arrive 20 minutes prior to the class start time. Dance shoes and attire are not required, just wear comfortable clothes. For more information about Dance Day Tampa, visit their website.

Not only is Tampa home to Dance Day Tampa, but many other exciting events as well. If you’d like to live near all of the excitement that the city has to offer, then give Highland Homes a call.  We offer new Florida real estate throughout the Tampa area in Zephyrhills, Ellenton, Hudson and Polk County, with home prices starting in the low-$100,000s and only $99 down.

Florida real estate prices risingOver the past couple of years, Florida real estate has seen some amazingly low prices. It’s definitely been a buyer’s market. However, the tables are about to turn. According to Market Watch and Clear Capital’s home data index forecast, Orlando new home prices are on the rise. But, Orlando is not the only Florida city that is expected to see an increase in new home price points: the Tampa Tribune also is noting a steady increase in the Tampa Bay area’s home prices for six straight months. With prices progressively increasing, buyers must act fast to receive the best deals on their new home purchases before it’s too late.

If you’re a buyer who is interested in getting the best deal for your new home purchase before prices begin to rise, then contact Highland Homes. We build in a variety of Tampa and Orlando new home communities, in Zephyrhills, Ellenton, Hudson, Lakeland, Winter Haven, Davenport, Leesburg, St Cloud and more. Read More→

It’s official: Hurricane season has arrived. According to the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management, more hurricanes make landfall in Florida than any other state in the U.S. Are you prepared? What do you plan to do to protect your family and your Tampa, Lakeland or Orlando new home?

Below are some hurricane safety tips to help you protect yourself and your home.

Develop a family disaster plan: When the hurricane hits, where will you go, how will you get there and how will you care for your pets? The disaster plan will help you answer these and other questions.

Build a disaster supply kit: This should include everything your family will need for three days (as long as it may take disaster relief workers to reach you with supplies). Suggested items include water, food, medicine, important legal documents, clothing, pet supplies, flashlights, extra batteries and something to keep you entertained such as non-electronic games.
