2026 Hernando Parade of Homes Runs February 13 Through March 1

A record 29 model homes are on the 2026 Hernando Parade of Homes roster, open to self-guided tours Feb. 13 through March 1 with Monday–Saturday hours 10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. and Sunday hours 12:00 noon–5:00 p.m. The Hernando Builders Association presents the event, which Sunrise Propane co-presents as a major sponsor.

Parade of Homes Chair Halie Eaton, who serves as vice president of Probuilt US, presided over the expansion to 29 entries this year, up from 28 last year. The increase sets a new high-water mark during Eaton’s tenure and concentrates model choices across Spring Hill and nearby Hernando County neighborhoods.

Major sponsors supporting the exhibition include Builders FirstSource, CEMEX LUMBER CO. LLC, Tibbetts Lumber Co. LLC, Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters, West Bay, 84 Lumber and The Hernando Sun. Hernando Sun coverage notes Sunrise Propane’s long-term backing and its focus on making homes more energy efficient through propane, a theme reflected in several participating builders’ energy and appliance displays.

M/I Homes is exhibiting models in two Spring Hill communities, Anderson Snow Estates and Avalon West. M/I’s sales team asks visitors to RSVP or call (813) 331-5888 to schedule walkthroughs. M/I is promoting Quick Move-In homes with below-market rates through M/I Financial that can close by March 31, 2026; examples listed for the parade period include the Picasso Bonus at 652 Hillshire Place, Spring Hill, priced at $521,070, and the Corina III at 2113 Clary Sage Drive, Spring Hill, priced at $561,850.
