Texas Top Home Builders – April 2021

A review of leading home builders in Texas during the month of April 2021

Last week, we reviewed new residential construction permit data in Texas for the month of April and discovered that there were approximately 7,745 residential construction permits with a total value of nearly $2 billion added to the HBW database for Texas.  This week, we are taking a closer look into HBW’s construction data reports to identify the leading contractors that are driving residential construction in each of the four major metro areas of Dallas, Houston, Austin and San Antonio.

Across the four areas, two home builders have and continue to lead residential construction in terms of housing starts.  Last month, D.R. Horton and Lennar Homes each had 740 and 615 new residential construction permits on record respectively; in addition to landing on the top of the leaderboard in most areas reviewed, they accounted for 18 percent of all new home construction in Texas for the one-month period.

Here is a closer look at the top five home builders for total new permits in Dallas, Houston, Austin and San Antonio during the month of April 2021:
