THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Signorelli, one of Texas largest privately owned real estate development companies, is accelerating the statewide expansion of its award-winning homebuilding division, First America Homes, with 14 new communities and new regional offices in North Texas and Austin, to capitalize on market opportunities in the Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio regions.
The expansion is expected to deliver more than 1,300 single-family homes, with more communities currently in the planning stages. Currently, First America Homes ranks 75th on the Builder 100 list of top-selling homebuilders. This latest phase of growth further establishes the company as one of the nation’s fastest-growing homebuilders, delivering quality homes and lasting value for today’s buyers.
“Texas continues to benefit from strong market fundamentals and sustained population growth,” said Danny Signorelli, founder and CEO of Signorelli. “That momentum creates tremendous opportunities for expansion as we bring more quality homes and exceptional living experiences to families across the region. With the financial strength, development expertise and a long-term vision to execute, we’re investing strategically in new communities and creating lasting value for homeowners while strengthening our footprint across the state.”
Every First America Homes product combines elevated design, superior construction quality and highly sought-after amenities. Each home is backed by the company’s industry-leading two-year home warranty, reflecting its commitment to homeowner satisfaction.
The homebuilder’s most recent expansion includes:
- Houston Region: The Azalea District at Valley Ranch in northeast Montgomery County, the final single-family neighborhood within this 1,400-acre mixed-use development by Signorelli, will feature 359 homes by First America Homes with pricing starting in the $300s.
- Dallas-Fort Worth Region: Leonard Trails in Anna, Texas, will include 81 single-family homes by First America, with prices starting in the $300s in a community offering convenient access to US-75.
- Austin/Central Texas: Three new communities in Lockhart, Manor and Kyle will feature single-family homes with flexible floorplans and access to master-planned amenities.
- Greater San Antonio Region: Expansion to nearly double its presence with nine new communities across Bexar County and surrounding areas, adding to its existing portfolio of 12 active communities.
“With the openings of our Austin and Dallas-Ft. Worth regional offices, and accelerated growth in San Antonio, we’re focused on creating homes and communities that reflect how people want to live and delivering the quality, service and lasting value families expect,” said John Winniford, president of First America Homes. “We remain optimistic about the future of the Texas housing market. Strong population growth, a resilient economy and continuing demand for quality homes give us confidence that Texas will remain one of the nation's most attractive markets for homebuyers for years to come.”
Consistent with First America Homes’ focus on delivering exceptional customer experience, homebuyers can personalize finishes, materials and upgrades at the First America Homes design center and receive guidance from professional designers. Qualifying homebuyers are eligible for The Founders Circle, an exclusive program offering priority homesite selection, early access to floorplans and exclusive pricing incentives.
As a division of Signorelli, First America Homes is backed by a land and commercial platform with deep reach: more than 16 master-planned and neighborhood communities, over 23,000 paper lots in the pipeline, and 1.5 million+ square feet of commercial and retail space, including transformative projects like Austin Point in Fort Bend County and Valley Ranch in Montgomery County.
