Interest rate increases or changes in federal lending programs or regulation could lower demand for the Company's homes and affect the Company's profitability.
Tax law changes could make home ownership more expensive or less attractive.
The Company is subject to inventory risk for its land, options for land, building lots and housing inventory.
Construction costs can fluctuate and impact the Company's margins.
