Award-winning builder is bringing its personalized customer experience and industry-leading warranty to North Texas.

THE WOODLANDS, TX (June 3, 2026) – First America Homes, the homebuilding division of Texas real estate developer The Signorelli Company, has launched operations in the Dallas-Fort Worth market, marking a significant new milestone in the company’s statewide expansion strategy. The move positions the award-winning home builder in one of the nation’s largest and fastest growing housing markets. This market entry is consistent with The Signorelli Company’s long-term goal of shaping communities across the state.

“Current market conditions in Dallas-Fort Worth present a compelling opportunity for well-capitalized companies like ours,” said Danny Signorelli, founder and CEO of The Signorelli Company. “After evaluating Dallas-Fort Worth for several years, we believe the timing is right to expand. Our financial strength and long-term perspective allow us to capitalize on strategic opportunities while helping industry partners right-size their positions. We look forward to replicating the success we’ve achieved in Houston as we grow our presence in Dallas-Fort Worth.”

The expansion includes the creation of a new divisional office to oversee construction and sales operations for current and future communities in Dallas-Fort Worth. The company has already secured homesites in the Leonard Trails community in Anna, Texas, with plans for additional communities in progress. The Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex joins First America Homes’ growing portfolio of communities in Houston and San Antonio markets.

"Our expansion into Dallas-Fort Worth represents more than geographic growth—it's the next chapter in our mission to create opportunities for families across Texas," said John Winniford, president of First America Homes. "Backed by The Signorelli Company's expertise in land development and community creation, we're bringing our proven approach to homebuilding to one of the nation's top housing markets while laying the foundation for long-term growth throughout North Texas."

Recently ranked No. 75 on the Builder 100 list, First America Homes delivers thoughtfully designed homes, quality construction, and a personalized homebuying experience for buyers in all stages of life. Each home is backed by the company’s industry-leading, two-year home warranty, reflecting its commitment to homeowner satisfaction.

Supported by The Signorelli Company’s integrated development platform, First America Homes has become one of Texas’s fastest-growing homebuilders, leveraging in-house land development and market expertise to deliver master-planned communities across the state.

Launching at Leonard Trails Community

At Leonard Trails, First America Homes will deliver 81 single-family homes in the 98-acre community located along TX-5, with quick access to US-75. Floor plans will range from approximately 1,700 to 3,200 square feet, with prices starting in the $300s. Construction is scheduled to begin in July 2026.

Designed for everyday living and entertaining, the homes feature single- and two-story floor plans with open-concept layouts and flexible living spaces. Available features include chef-inspired kitchens, private bedroom suites, spa-style baths, covered patios, game rooms, studies, mudrooms, and home offices. The 30-foot series includes two-story plans with volume ceilings in the main living areas to create bright, open spaces. Homes in the 40-foot series offer expanded garages with additional storage and flexibility for larger vehicles, workout areas, or hobby space.

Winniford said the homes are designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s buyers while addressing underserved demand at this price point. Homebuyers can personalize finishes, materials, and upgrades at the First America Homes design center with guidance from professional designers.

Community amenities at Leonard Trails include a swimming pool, playground, sports field, and dog park, along with convenient access to retail, dining, and entertainment. Located within Anna Independent School District, the community also offers connectivity to Melissa, McKinney, Allen, and Plano.

Since 2010, First America Homes has helped thousands of families find homes in communities designed for living, working, shopping, and recreation. More than a decade later, the company continues to grow across Greater Houston and San Antonio, with 30 active communities and 15 additional communities planned in Dallas–Fort Worth and Austin. First America Homes is also ranked No. 64 on Home Builder Executive magazine’s 2025 list of the top 100 private homebuilders in the U.S.
