GHO Homes Continues Winning Streak with Sixth Home Builder of the Year Award

Posted: August, 26, 2026 | Categories: News | Awards

GHO Homes won Home Builder of the Year at the 2026 Treasure Coast Community Choice Awards for the sixth consecutive year. Its Vero Beach community, Seaglass, also earned New Community of the Year. Both honors reflect the company's commitment to quality construction, integrity and thoughtful community design across Florida's Treasure Coast.

Recognition that arrives once is a compliment. Recognition that arrives six years in a row is a legacy. GHO Homes has once again claimed Home Builder of the Year at the Treasure Coast Community Choice Awards, marking six consecutive years of the honor for homebuilding excellence.

The celebration didn't stop there. Seaglass, one of GHO Homes' premier communities in Vero Beach, was named New Community of the Year. Together, these awards paint a clear picture of a builder that continues to earn the trust of the people who matter most: the homeowners who choose to build their lives here.

Below, we explore what makes these honors so meaningful, what sets Seaglass apart and how GHO Homes has shaped the Treasure Coast for more than four decades.

What Are the Treasure Coast Community Choice Awards?

The Treasure Coast Community Choice Awards celebrate the businesses, developers and communities that residents value most. Unlike awards decided by a small panel of judges, these honors are driven by public voting. That distinction matters. When a builder wins here, the recognition comes directly from the community it serves.
For GHO Homes, winning Home Builder of the Year for the sixth consecutive year signals something rare in the homebuilding industry: sustained trust. Buyers, neighbors and residents across the region continue to cast their votes in favor of a company they believe delivers on its promises.

Why Did Seaglass Win Community of the Year?

Seaglass, a GHO Homes community in Vero Beach, earned New Community of the Year for good reason. The neighborhood blends coastal elegance with resort-style living, offering residents a lifestyle designed around comfort, beauty and connection.

Seaglass offers two distinct home options for discerning buyers:

  • Villas priced from $1.3M
  • Single-family homes priced from $1.9M

Each residence reflects the craftsmanship and attention to detail that define the GHO Homes name. From thoughtfully designed floorplans to high-end finishes, Seaglass gives homeowners a place that feels both luxurious and welcoming. Its beach club, nature trails and coastal setting make everyday life feel like a getaway.

A Message From GHO Homes Leadership

The response from company leadership captured the pride behind the achievement. Bill Handler, President of GHO Homes, shared his gratitude for the continued support.

"This honor speaks volumes about the dedication of our team and the trust our homeowners place in us. We are humbled by the continued support and look forward to building even more homes that enhance lives and neighborhoods. We are grateful to everyone who voted and continues to support our mission."

His words reflect a company that measures success not only in awards, but in the lives and neighborhoods it helps create.

What Do These Awards Say About GHO Homes?

Six consecutive Home Builder of the Year wins, paired with a New Community of the Year honor, point to values that run deeper than accolades. These awards reflect three commitments that guide everything GHO Homes builds:

  • Quality: Every home showcases superior craftsmanship and high-end finishes designed to last.
  • Integrity: The company earns trust by delivering on its promises, one homeowner at a time.
  • Community: GHO Homes designs neighborhoods where families connect, grow and feel at home.

For buyer searching for a new home, these honors offer reassurance. Choosing GHO Homes means choosing a builder the community itself has recognized year after year.
