Top 5 New Neighborhoods in ABOR Region by Volume
By George Arnold Alexander III, MPA · Associate Broker · 2026-10-01
How many new neighborhoods are driving the ABOR / Unlock MLS Region market right now? In August 2026, 870 newly built homes closed, representing a significant portion of the 2,854 total sales. This volume indicates strong builder activity and demand for fresh inventory across the region.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed new-construction closings to identify the top five subdivisions by sales volume. These communities are where buyers are actively moving in during this period. The ranking is based strictly on the number of closed transactions, not on price or quality metrics.
Pradera led the list with 27 new construction closings, followed by Waterstone with 23. Meadowlark Preserve recorded 24 sales, while Plum Creek and Rancho Del Cielo each saw 21 and 20 closings respectively. These five subdivisions account for a notable share of the region's new home market activity.
The median price for these top neighborhoods ranged from $216,999 in Rancho Del Cielo to $349,999 in Meadowlark Preserve. Days on market varied significantly, with Rancho Del Cielo homes selling in 29 days and Waterstone taking 37 days. This data reflects current buyer preferences for specific new developments rather than a broad regional trend.
The total number of new construction sales represents roughly 30% of all closed transactions in the region for August. This high share suggests that new builds are a primary driver of market liquidity this month. Buyers looking for modern features and immediate occupancy are finding active options in these top-performing subdivisions.
