Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] |
Joint Ventures | Joint VenturesOn a limited basis, we obtain finished lots using joint venture limited liability corporations (“JVs”). The JVs are typically structured such that we are a non-controlling member and are at risk only for the amount we have invested, or have committed to invest, in addition to any deposits placed under LPAs with the joint venture. We are not a borrower, guarantor or obligor on any debt of the JVs, as applicable. We enter into LPAs to purchase lots from these JVs, and as a result have a variable interest in these JVs. At September 30, 2022, we had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $27,800 in five JVs that are expected to produce approximately 5,400 finished lots, of which approximately 5,000 lots were controlled by us and the remaining approximately 400 lots were either under contract with unrelated parties or not currently under contract. We had additional funding commitments totaling approximately $13,500 to one of the JVs at September 30, 2022. We determined that we are not the primary beneficiary in four of the JVs because we and the other JV partner either share power or the other JV partner has the controlling financial interest. The aggregate investment in unconsolidated JVs was approximately $27,800 and $20,300 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is reported in the homebuilding “Other assets” line item on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. None of the unconsolidated JVs had any indicators of impairment as of September 30, 2022. For the remaining JV, we concluded that we are the primary beneficiary because we have the controlling financial interest in the JV. All activities under the consolidated JV have been completed and we have no remaining investment in the JV. As of September 30, 2022, the JV had remaining balances of $255 in cash and $229 in accrued expenses, which are included in homebuilding "Other assets" and "Accrued expenses and other liabilities," respectively, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. We recognize income from the JVs as a reduction to the lot cost of the lots purchased from the respective JVs when the homes are settled, based on the expected total profitability and the total number of lots expected to be produced by the respective JVs. We classify distributions received from unconsolidated JVs using the cumulative earnings approach. As a result, distributions received up to the amount of cumulative earnings recognized by us are reported as distributions of earnings and those in excess of that amount are reported as a distribution of capital. These distributions are classified within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as cash flows from operating activities and investing activities, respectively.
