Regency at Lake Hills
Homes for Sale in Howey-in-the-Hills, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
This is Toll Brothers' first active-adult community in the Orlando market and, per the builder, its largest Orlando-market community to date — a meaningful commitment from a builder that's still relatively new to this metro's 55+ segment. Direct waterfront on Lake Harris with a community dock is a genuine differentiator against inland active-adult product.
With sales not expected until late 2026 and pricing not yet released, the useful planning window right now is the phasing: five phases across 560 homes on 220 acres gives buyers room to pick a phase and lot type — 50-ft or 60-ft single-family lots versus 40-ft duet homes — once details firm up.
The 60-Second Overview
Regency at Lake Hills is a gated, age-restricted 55+ community planned for 560 homes on 220 acres in five phases in Howey-in-the-Hills (Lake County), developed by Reader Communities with Hillwood Communities, with Toll Brothers building exclusively under its Regency collection. It's Toll Brothers' first active-adult community in the Orlando market. Land has been acquired, groundbreaking is targeted for spring 2026, and first home sales are expected late 2026 — this is not yet open for sales.

The Regency at Lake Hills buying strategy.
If we were buying in Regency at Lake Hills today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Regency at Lake Hills.
