Neal Communities of Southwest Florida LLC

What this record tells you

Neal Communities of Southwest Florida LLC holds Florida licence CBC1256375, a CBC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered building or residential contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 2008, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 31% of the 1,533 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Sarasota & Bradenton area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2017. That is 18 years of continuous licensure.

Neal Communities of Southwest Florida LLC is one of 544 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Sarasota, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. John Anderson Neal additionally holds 2 other active Florida licences in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2028. Florida licences renew on a fixed cycle, and a licence that is not renewed moves to delinquent status — which is why the expiry date matters if you are planning work close to that date. Confirm the current status on the state portal before signing a contract.
