Cypress Plan

Dan Handler, Bill’s father, shared his daily experiences as a builder and developer of shopping centers throughout the eastern United States. With his extensive knowledge of the construction business, Dan decided to expand his efforts into residential construction with the founding of GHO Homes in 1983. In the ensuing years the company grew steadily, building projects from Sunrise to Daytona Beach. After 17 years of growth and experience, the torch was passed when Dan Handler placed Bill in charge of the next generation of GHO Homes. Bill’s credentials brought tremendous momentum to the GHO family management team. After graduating with honors from the University of Florida with a degree in Building Construction, Bill went on to earn his Law Degree from the University of Florida and become a licensed contractor. These accreditations allowed him to combine practical “hands-on” experience with the knowledge and business acumen necessary to guide the company.
