The residential development of Wiregrass remains on hold. No new master builder has been announced. The Shops at Wiregrass mall is scheduled to open on October 30, 2008.

Wiregrass Residential Quiet

Since this announcement earlier this year that the master builder for this planned residential community pulled out, there is no apparent development activity on Wiregrass homes. At this time it appears that Wiregrass Ranch is limited to the Shops at Wiregrass mall scheduled to open in fall, 2008. Cattle still can be seen grazing on this 5,000 acre ranch, and the sign shown here has long been taken down.

Wiregrass Residential

While the construction of the Shops at Wiregrass appears to moving along well, the immediate residential development of Wiregrass is up in the air.

With the pullout by Pulte from serving as the master builder, today the Tampa Tribune indicates that the owner/developer is seeking another company to develop the ranch.

Master Builder for Wiregrass withdraws

Recently it was reported that Pulte Homes no longer will be the master builder for Wiregrass. While Pulte still retains some lots, it has no plans in the near future to build in Wiregrass, nor is there any indication other builders are considering Wiregrass at this time.

The news is not surprising. Given the current real estate market, in my opinion developing a new community would be unwise until the market improves.

There are plenty of homes (resales and new homes) available in the New Tampa/Wesley Chapel market however.
