New Division President Jeremy Hampson Set to Lead Taylor Morrison in Jacksonville Expansion

In a strategic move to bolster its presence in Jacksonville, Taylor Morrison, renowned as America’s Most Trusted® Home Builder, has appointed Jeremy Hampson as the division president. Hampson is set to leverage almost 15 years of extensive experience in the homebuilding sector as he takes on this pivotal role.

Hampson’s appointment is backed by accolades from Taylor Morrison’s Area President, Steve Kempton, who highlighted Hampson's impressive leadership qualities, dedication, and deep insights into the Florida housing market. The Jacksonville division, known for its commitment to quality and community, aims to grow dynamically under Hampson's guidance. Kempton believes Hampson’s previous experience in successfully developing large-scale master-planned communities will be invaluable as the division looks to implement ambitious plans, particularly following the recent introduction of the Esplanade brand in Jacksonville.

Before joining Taylor Morrison, Hampson served as Division President of Florida for Freehold Capital Management and held various significant roles at Toll Brothers’ Jacksonville division over an impressive eleven-year tenure. His career in these entities has equipped him with a robust understanding of project management and land acquisition, making him a pivotal figure moving forward. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Management from Missouri State University and an MBA in finance from Lindenwood University, which further enhances his capacity to navigate the complexities of the housing market efficiently.

Moreover, Hampson’s involvement in the Florida real estate scene through organizations such as the Florida ULI Product Council for Community Development, as well as his service on the Northeast Florida Builders Association Board of Directors, underscores his commitment to not only professional development but also community engagement. Hampson expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "The Jacksonville division has built an incredibly talented and dedicated team and I'm excited for what's ahead. I’m deeply passionate about the Florida real estate community and look forward to working with this team to deliver exceptional homes, foster customer care, and make a real impact in the neighborhoods we serve."

Currently, the Jacksonville division of Taylor Morrison operates six actively sold communities, showcasing their reputation for quality and innovation. Among the exciting developments is the opening of sales at the Esplanade at St. Marys, a new resort lifestyle community. Positioned optimally near the Georgia-Florida border, this 1,250-acre golf course community is set to provide more than 1,300 single-family residences complemented by a host of resort-style amenities and wellness programs.

The anticipated amenities include an 18-hole championship golf course, a Culinary Center featuring both casual and upscale dining options, and a Wellness Center equipped with a state-of-the-art fitness center, complete with saunas and cold plunge facilities. Residents will also have access to a range of recreational offerings such as tennis, pickleball, and bocce courts, as well as walking trails and dog parks. The first nine holes of the golf course are already operational, along with the Aqua Driving Range, Pro Shoppe, and Café, while the complete golf course is expected to open in the upcoming fall.

As one of the nation’s leading homebuilders and developers, Taylor Morrison continues to make strides under its family of brands, which include Taylor Morrison, Esplanade, and Yardly. The company's ongoing commitment to sustainability and a reputation for excellence, recognized through awards like America's Most Trusted® Builder by Lifestory Research from 2016 to 2026, supports its mission to cater to a wide spectrum of consumers.
