Florida Top Home Builders – April 2023

Earlier this week, we reviewed and reported on the latest permit data on record with HBW for new home construction in the Sunshine State. In the post, we noted that there had been approximately 8,445 new residential construction permits added to the HBW database for Florida during the month of April.
