Business Segments [Abstract] |
Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | Business Segments The Company’s chief operating decision makers evaluate the Company’s performance in various ways, including: (1) the results of our 16 individual homebuilding operating segments and the results of our financial services operations; (2) the results of our three homebuilding reportable segments; and (3) our consolidated financial results. In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), we have identified each homebuilding division as an operating segment as each homebuilding division engages in business activities from which it earns revenue, primarily from the sale and construction of single-family attached and detached homes, acquisition and development of land, and the occasional sale of lots to third parties. Our financial services operations generate revenue primarily from the origination, sale and servicing of mortgage loans and title services primarily for purchasers of the Company’s homes and are included in our financial services reportable segment. In accordance with the aggregation criteria defined in ASC 280, we have identified each homebuilding division as an operating segment and have determined our reportable segments are as follows: Midwest homebuilding; Southern homebuilding; Mid-Atlantic homebuilding; and financial services operations. The homebuilding operating segments that are included within each reportable segment have been aggregated because they share similar aggregation characteristics as prescribed in ASC 280 in the following regards: (1) long-term economic characteristics; (2) historical and expected future long-term gross margin percentages; (3) housing products, production processes and methods of distribution; and (4) geographical proximity. The homebuilding operating segments that comprise each of our reportable segments are as follows:
Midwest | Southern | Mid-Atlantic
Chicago, Illinois | Orlando, Florida | Charlotte, North Carolina
Cincinnati, Ohio | Sarasota, Florida | Raleigh, North Carolina
Columbus, Ohio | Tampa, Florida | Washington, D.C. (a)
Indianapolis, Indiana | Austin, Texas |
Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota | Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas |
Detroit, Michigan | Houston, Texas |
| San Antonio, Texas |
(a) | During the first quarter of 2019, the Company decided to wind down its Washington, D.C. operations, which the Company expects to substantially complete within one year.
