The November 21 Grand Opening of Avilla Cypress Creek, (Sun City Center), is a great opportunity for learning more about this built-to-rent neighborhood. The event begins at 9 a.m. and features three models for touring—one that will be fully furnished (two-bedroom).
The concept of Avilla communities, built by NexMetro, is relatively new. It offers an alternative to typical rentals, in that it features single level, detached homes for lease in a gated enclave.

Linda Coburn, asset management V.P. for NexMetro, loves to show visitors the upscale amenities of its housing units in its Avilla Cypress Creek community.
Linda Coburn, NexMetro’ s vice president of asset management, said, “Our residents are typically ones who have the wherewithal to buy or to own but are choosing to rent. There is tremendous appeal of this hybrid housing offering to diverse consumers in all stages of life. They often range from young professionals looking for convenience and proximity to employment opportunities or those in a life-stage transition. Others are baby boomers downsizing and looking to scale back while increasing their freedom and discover our Avilla homes can meet all their needs.”
NexMetro has several communities in Florida. Avilla Cypress Creek is the second for serving the Tampa Market; it follows Avilla Suncoast, opened in Odessa three years ago. The company has invested $2.5+ billion in the Phoenix, Dallas, Denver, Tampa, Austin and Atlanta markets combined. It currently has over 52 neighborhoods—more than 9,300 homes completed, under construction or in development.
William Hulton, NexMetro’s vice president of development for Florida, says, “Demand for single-family rental homes remains incredibly strong as consumers seek this unique lifestyle experience that combines the best of a detached home and mortgage-free, maintenance-free living.”
