Division 07 · Community Planning Development

From vision to community.

Community planning and development is SDG's highest-level value creation activity — the ability to vision, entitle, design, and build entire communities from the ground up. Master-planned communities, mixed-use developments, and community development projects require the full integration of SDG's other eight divisions. This is where vertical integration delivers its highest and most defensible return. Florida's community development market is exceptionally active in 2026 — build-to-rent, mixed-use communities, senior living, and master-planned developments are the fastest-growing segments. Areas including Lake Nona, Winter Garden, Horizon West, and Polk County are specifically identified as high-growth development zones.
