Through our 20 wonderful years building new homes in Tampa Bay and throughout Central Florida, we have worked hard to provide quality new homes, a superior customer experience, and succeed through economic downturns. Gaining recognition at the Fast 50 Awards, for the second year in a row, is a great honor!

“We’re humbled by our success throughout the years,쳌 says Bob Adams, President and Owner of Highland Homes. “And despite tough economic conditions, the effort from every one of our team members has resulted in our ongoing success.쳌

The list’s rankings Fast 50 Awards 2016 are based on revenue growth from 2013 to 2015, and financial information was verified by accounting firm Frazier & Deeter.

We were one of just three companies based in Polk County to make the list and we’re honored to be recognized by this business news publication for our personal growth, as well as our contribution to the economic growth here in Polk County.

Owner and President Bob Adams has been building homes in Tampa Bay for more than 45 years, and was a founding partner of Sun State Homes prior to founding Highland Homes in 1996.

Our experience shows through our hard work and achievements such as this one. Continuing to make the dream of homeownership a reality for Florida home buyers, consistently providing excellent customer service to our new homeowners, and maintaining quality and value in our homes helps us stand out in the crowd.

At halfway through the year, we’re right on track to make that happen.
