Acquisition | Acquisitions Shapell Industries, Inc. On February 4, 2014, we completed our acquisition of Shapell Industries, Inc. (“Shapell”) pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated November 6, 2013, with Shapell Investment Properties, Inc. (“SIPI”). We acquired all of the equity interests in Shapell from SIPI for $1.49 billion, net of cash acquired (the “Acquisition”). We acquired the single-family residential real property development business of Shapell, including a portfolio of approximately 4,950 home sites in California, some of which we have sold to other builders. The Acquisition provided us with a premier California land portfolio, including 11 active selling communities as of the acquisition date, in affluent, high-growth markets: the San Francisco Bay area, metro Los Angeles, Orange County, and the Carlsbad market. As part of the Acquisition, we assumed contracts to deliver 126 homes with an aggregate value of approximately $105.3 million. Coleman Real Estate Holdings, LLC In October 2016, we entered into an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets and operations of Coleman Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Coleman”). In November 2016, we completed the acquisition of Coleman for approximately $85.2 million in cash. The assets acquired were primarily inventory, including approximately 1,750 home sites owned or controlled through land purchase agreements. As part of the acquisition, we assumed contracts to deliver 128 homes with an aggregate value of $38.8 million. The average price of the undelivered homes at the date of acquisition was approximately $303,000. As a result of this acquisition, our selling community count increased by 15 communities at the acquisition date.
