About New Home Co Inc.

New Home Co Inc. (ticker NWHM) is a U.S. residential homebuilder whose market references and SEC insider-transaction filings place it within the U.S. listed equity universe associated with NYSE/NASDAQ trading. The company is based in the United States, with its operational headquarters in Irvine, California, and it has built its identity around serving fast-growing housing markets across the West, Central and Pacific Northwest regions. Founded in 2009, New Home Co. has developed into a homebuilding platform focused on the design, construction and sale of attached and detached single-family homes, with an emphasis on entry-level and first move-up buyers.

In practical terms, that means growth is driven primarily by land acquisition, community development and disciplined capital deployment rather than by a heavy fixed-asset base. This model is designed to allow New Home Co. to concentrate on high-growth submarkets where demographic inflows, employment growth and housing demand are attractive. The company’s historical core has been California and the broader Western U.S., but it has broadened its footprint meaningfully in Texas. In late 2023, New Home Co. entered Texas through the acquisition of Hamilton Thomas Homes, adding exposure to the Houston and Austin markets, and in 2024 it further expanded in Georgetown near Austin through a 105-homesite acquisition.

The company highlights thoughtful architecture, modern layouts, smart-home features and neighborhood amenities aimed at improving the buyer experience. It also supports the sales process with affiliated mortgage services through Universal Lending, which can improve the customer journey and add a financing touchpoint within the broader home purchase process.

Recent disclosures on the company website show continued land investment in Sacramento, Eastvale and Greater Denver, underscoring a strategy of expanding community count in supply-constrained or high-demand suburban markets. The Texas platform has also been a focal point, with management describing Houston and Austin as major strategic entry points. ([newhomeco.com](https://www.newhomeco.com/news)) The most important recent development came in 2025, when New Home Co. announced and then completed its acquisition of Landsea Homes Corporation. Management said the deal creates a privately held top-25 national homebuilder with greater scale and a more diversified footprint. For investors, this is a significant strategic milestone: it potentially improves geographic balance and operating leverage, but it also raises integration, execution and market-cycle risk. Overall, New Home Co. is best viewed as a U.S. residential housing platform with expanding scale, active land investment and sensitivity to mortgage-rate conditions, affordability trends and the health of the new-home market.
