Sarasota · Manatee County · south to Venice

Homes, carefully brought back.

Five Six Homes finds houses that need attention and renovates them with care—for people who want to live in them, and for investors who want a private conversation about what comes next.

Two ways in

Whether you want to live in a house, or talk about a project.

This site is built around two audiences. Choose the path that fits, or browse both.

For buyers

A renovated home, ready to be lived in

If you are looking for a house that has been renovated with care—in Sarasota, Manatee County, or south to Venice—this is where available homes will be listed when they are ready to be shown.

We aim for solid work and considered finishes, not a rush to a listing photo. What we can offer, and when, will be posted here honestly.

No homes are listed yet. When a property is ready, it will appear in the Homes section, with photographs of the actual house.

For investors

A private conversation, not a public offering

If you are interested in how Five Six Homes approaches projects in this market, write to bj@fivesixhomes.com. Conversations will be private.

This page is an introduction only. It is not an investment offering, and it does not describe terms, returns, or a request for funds.

The contact form later on this page is a visual draft and does not collect or send messages. Until it is connected, use the email address.

Inventory

Available and upcoming homes

Houses will be shown here as they are acquired, enter renovation, or become ready to visit—with a clear status and photographs of the actual property.

No homes are listed yet

There is no confirmed Florida inventory to list yet. We are not displaying sample listings, stock photographs, or placeholder addresses in the meantime.

When a home is ready to be shown, this section will include its status (upcoming, in renovation, or available), a neighborhood or city-level location in our service area, and original photographs.

The work

How we intend to work

These are the principles we are building the business around. They describe an approach, not a record of completed sales.

  1. 01

    Look carefully

    We focus on Sarasota and Manatee counties, and south along the coast to Venice. The aim is to choose houses that can be improved honestly, in places people want to live.

  2. 02

    Renovate with intention

    Structure, systems, and livability come first. Finishes should feel lasting, not styled only for a photograph. We would rather do fewer things well than overstate the work.

  3. 03

    Present clearly

    Buyers should know what they are looking at. Investors should be able to ask direct questions, privately. This site will stay accurate as homes and details are ready to share.

Facts below are limited to what public listing pages and county assessment records actually show. Florida inventory is still empty, and no renovation scope, costs, or profits are listed here.

The company

About Five Six Homes

Five Six Homes is a house-flipping business focused on Sarasota and Manatee counties, and south to Venice, Florida. We renovate houses so they can be lived in, and we make room for private conversations with investors who want to learn how we work.

An LLC filing for Five Six Homes, LLC is in process. This website is being prepared alongside that filing. It does not represent a completed or approved company registration.

Five Six Homes is being built in Florida, carefully and without inflating a local track record that has not been established yet. Houses renovated and resold in Pennsylvania before this company was formed are documented under Past projects. Those were completed before Five Six Homes, LLC existed, and they are not projects of the LLC. A team page will be added when those details are ready to share.
