Note: sales in 2016 were a little less than 2015 sales reported in the Orlando article.

Maybe sales will increase?
Obviously, the author of this article is not informed that TV is buying up land and will soon be developing again at 2015 levels. There was a slowdown when TV thought they couldn't build anymore due to an agreement with Sumter County years ago. That agreement has been torn up and they can now build all they want.
