Key Takeaway

The high increases in average selling prices for new orders suggest that revenues for next fiscal year should continue to grow strongly even if supply chain issues and inflation reduce the profits or affect the speed of new home closings.

Both earnings and revenues have grown tremendously for these companies year-over-year despite challenges around delivering homes, as minor decreases in units closed have not generally affected home builder financials and growth rates over the last several years.
