Horton, America’s Builderand is listed as a Fortune 500 company on the New York Stock Exchange with the ticker symbol DHI.
Founded by Donald R. Horton in 1978, the company was incorporated in Delaware in 1991 and completed its initial public offering in 1992. D.R.

Over the years, the company has acquired various regional homebuilding companies to enhance market position and offerings. D.R. Horton constructs homes ranging in size from approximately 1,000 to 5,000 square feet, with price points typically between $80,000 and $900,000.
In addition to homebuilding, D.R.

The company also operates title service subsidiaries that facilitate title insurance and closing services.
D.R. Horton categorizes its business into two main segments: homebuilding and financial services. The homebuilding segment generates most of its revenue from sales of completed homes, with additional revenue from land sales. The company builds a variety of housing types, including single-family detached homes, townhomes, and multi-family units.
The company implements a diversification strategy to reduce exposure to local economic fluctuations and identify growth opportunities. This strategy involves careful evaluation of potential markets based on factors like job growth, land availability, and local sales activity before committing capital.
Each operating division within D.R. Horton is responsible for comprehensive tasks, including site selection, land development, architecture, construction oversight, and marketing strategies.

D.R. Horton primarily relies on subcontractors for construction, ensuring that each home meets quality and compliance standards. Homes are typically completed within four to six months, and the company offers warranties on workmanship, building materials, and structural defects.
The homebuilding industry is intensely competitive, with D.R. Horton competing against numerous national and local builders. The companys competitive edge lies in its ability to provide high-quality homes at varying price points, along with favorable financing options and desirable locations.
