The Top-Selling Master-Planned Communities, Mid-Year 2019

Bethesda, MD, July 11, 2019 --(PR.com)-- RCLCO Real Estate Advisors (www.rclco.com) released the results of their national survey of the top-selling master-planned communities as of mid-year 2019.

Every year since 1994, RCLCO has conducted a national survey identifying the top-selling MPCs through a rigorous search of high-performing communities in each state. This initiative exists not only as a way to commend the most successful communities in the country, but also as a tool for monitoring the overall health of the for-sale housing industry, a means of locating markets with the most significant residential momentum, a process for highlighting the trends affecting communities large and small, and a medium through which to learn development best practices and pass along lessons learned from the MPCs that have pioneered their way into the top ranks.

In this update for mid-year 2019, they surveyed MPCs throughout the country to establish the updated rankings following the release of The Top-Selling Master-Planned Communities of 2018. The ranking of top communities is based on total home sales as reported by each individual community.

In Summary:
· Home sales at the nation’s 50 top-selling MPCs exceeded expectations in the first half of 2019, with a pace that indicates the potential for a 10% increase at year’s end compared with 2018.
· On average, communities on this year’s list experienced approximately 3% growth in sales over the same time period last year.
· Texas, Florida, and California account for 66% of total sales among the 50 top-selling communities, with the share of total top-selling MPC sales in other states decreasing from 38% to 34% since mid-year 2018.
· These results appear to validate the sentiments echoed in RCLCO’s Mid-Year 2019 Sentiment Survey, that it is not quite time to stress a downturn. Professionals across the industry were polled about their perspective on the current state of various product types, and most did not yet believe a peak had been reached in the for-sale residential space. Indeed, the sales figures provided by the top-selling master-planned communities in the country would appear to agree with these professionals, as this cycle continues to provide further room to run.

In addition to this semi-annual report, RCLCO prepared an interactive map tool which visualizes the sales at Top-Selling MPCs across the country from 2013 to MY 2019, available online here:

Through this visualization tool, it is clear to see that Florida, Texas, and California represent the largest share of home sales among the top-selling communities.
