About GL Homes

GL Homes was founded in 1976 and is headquartered in Sunrise, Florida. It is one of Florida's largest privately held homebuilders, with deep roots in South Florida and growing presence across the state. GL Homes is known for building large-scale, amenity-rich master-planned communities with resort-style amenities including championship golf courses, elaborate clubhouses, and extensive recreation facilities. Their communities often function as self-contained lifestyle destinations. GL Homes expanded into the Tampa Bay market with communities in Manatee and Sarasota counties, bringing their signature large-community approach to the area. Their Lakewood Ranch and Parrish area developments are among the most amenity-rich in the region. Pricing typically starts in the mid-$300s and extends well into the $800s for premium homes. GL Homes builds single-family homes, villas, and age-qualified 55+ communities.
