Expanding Into Orlando’s Commercial Market: Haines & Haven Takes on Dr. Phillips

Lucas Oliveira • April 2, 2026

Haines & Haven Residential is continuing its growth across Central Florida with the recent onboarding of a portfolio of commercial units in one of Orlando’s most established and high-demand corridors—Dr. Phillips.

Located just off Sand Lake Road and Turkey Lake Road, this portfolio sits directly behind some of the area’s most recognizable destinations, including Ocean Prime, Eddie V’s, and Rocco’s Tacos. This is a prime commercial pocket known for strong traffic, affluent demographics, and consistent business demand.


This expansion represents a strategic step forward for our company. While we’ve built a strong foundation in residential property management throughout Polk County, we are now actively extending our systems, standards, and service model into the commercial sector—without losing the hands-on approach that has driven our growth.

Most property management companies choose a lane—residential or commercial. We’re deliberately building expertise in both, because many investors don’t operate in just one category.


If you own residential property in Polk County and are expanding into commercial assets in Orlando, or vice versa, you no longer need multiple management companies with different standards, communication styles, and reporting systems.

Our goal is simple: consistency across your portfolio.


That means:

  • Clear, responsive communication
  • Structured lease and renewal processes
  • Strong tenant placement and retention strategies
  • Clean financial reporting and accountability

Commercial management brings its own complexity—lease structures, escalations, CAM considerations, and longer-term tenant relationships. We’re approaching this space with the same attention to detail that has allowed us to scale quickly on the residential side.


If you’re an owner or investor looking for a management company that understands both spaces—and treats your portfolio like a business, not a side project—Haines & Haven is positioned to help.


The goal isn’t just growth.


It’s controlled, strategic expansion with results to back it up.

A proposed data center in Haines City is drawing attention after city officials said they do not currently have the water capacity to support the project. The proposed facility would be built near State Road 544 and Marion Road. According to city officials, the project could require approximately 150,000 gallons of water per day. Before the project could move forward, the city would need additional approvals related to its water supply. As of today, the project has not been approved. While this proposal is specific to Haines City, it reflects a much larger conversation taking place across Polk County.
