Robinette Homes

What Robinette Homes does

Robinette Homes Signature Series, Inc. is a privately held, founder-owned custom homebuilder and residential community developer headquartered at 500 Hawks Landing Circle in Plantation, Florida. Founded in 1975, the company has spent more than three decades designing, developing, and building master-planned luxury communities and custom single-family homes across South Florida, with a portfolio spanning more than 2,800 homes across eight or more named communities including Hawks Landing (550 homes), Westport (375 homes), Nob Hill Estates/Jacaranda Estates (475 homes), Miramar Park Homes (400), Cooper City (350), Jacaranda Lakes (150), and Royal Palm Estates (150). The company also delivered projects outside core Florida, including Blowing Rock, North Carolina.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer, project-based model targeting high-net-worth individuals seeking bespoke luxury residences priced from $1 million to over $15 million. Revenue is generated through two streams: one-time sale of custom-designed single-family homes, and end-to-end community development including infrastructure (roads, utilities, water, sewer, paving, drainage) and amenity construction such as the $25 million Hawks Landing Club, Spa, Fitness Center, and Tennis Club. Sales are relationship-driven, with leadership — Founder/President Ford Robinette, General Counsel/VP Lauren Robinette, and VP/Head of Construction H. Kent Adams — directly involved in client engagements. Marketing relies primarily on referrals, word-of-mouth, and a digital presence via the company website, Facebook, and Instagram. The company has no disclosed external funding, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no patents or formal partnerships.

Operationally, Robinette Homes is a small core organization (1–10 employees), which reflects a developer/builder model that outsources construction labor to subcontractors while retaining ownership of land, design, project management, and brand. The proprietary technology is conventional residential construction with no documented software, AI, or digital product layer. Customer relationships are anchored in the Plantation, FL market and adjacent South Florida communities, with all revenue concentrated in the luxury custom segment of the regional residential market.

Broad incumbents

• Related Group: Major South Florida luxury residential developer with condo, mixed-use, and high-rise expertise (including prior Coral Bay Racquet Club–type product). Comparable to Robinette's high-rise venture and overall South Florida luxury footprint.
• Toll Brothers: National luxury homebuilder with active Florida operations and high-end community developments. Comparable in product positioning ($1M+ custom and luxury homes) but vastly larger and publicly traded, providing a public-market benchmark for Robinette's niche.
• Lennar Corporation: Largest U.S. homebuilder with significant Florida operations including luxury and move-up product. Not a direct luxury custom competitor, but provides a benchmark for South Florida community development scale and margin profile.

Direct peers

• The Kolter Group: Florida-focused luxury residential developer with communities across the state, including high-rise and single-family luxury product. Highly comparable to Robinette's combination of land development, infrastructure build, and custom luxury homes in South Florida.
• Minto Communities: Developer of master-planned luxury and active-adult communities in Florida with comparable price points and amenity packages (club, fitness, pools). Competes in the same Florida HNW custom home segment.
• GL Homes: One of Florida's largest luxury homebuilders and community developers, active in South Florida with large gated communities and amenity packages. Closest direct competitor to Robinette's Plantation-area luxury model, with greater scale and a national-capital-backed balance sheet.
• Stock Development: Family-owned Southwest Florida luxury homebuilder and community developer (e.g., Talis Park, Quail West). Comparable to Robinette as a family-run, vertically-integrated Florida luxury builder, with strong overlap in product and buyer profile.
• WCI Communities (Lifestyle Communities): Florida amenity-rich, master-planned community developer that emerged from the former WCI Communities brand. Direct overlap in gated luxury communities with club/amenity centers and similar South Florida target buyer.

Regional players

• Florida Homes (Florida East Coast Realty / FECR): South Florida luxury custom homebuilder serving HNW buyers with bespoke single-family residences. Closely aligned with Robinette's direct-to-consumer, custom-luxury, no-dealer distribution model.
• CC Homes: South Florida homebuilder developing luxury gated communities (e.g., in Homestead, Cutler Bay, Miami-Dade). Direct overlap with Robinette's luxury community model and South Florida target buyer.
