Its Parade of Homes record is one of the longest in this directory: twelve Reggie Awards across eleven Parade years, starting in 1991 and 1992, again in 1996, then almost every year from 2013 to 2021 — including two in 2020.

Current communities span Lily Pines, Flamingo Meadows, Maple Ridge Pines, and Stanford Meadows around Cambridge, Whispering Pines 3rd in East Bethel, Hemingway Meadows in North Branch, and Rum River Meadows in Isanti, with homes starting in the $350s to low $400s. Each home carries a one-year builder warranty on workmanship and materials.
