“United Homes Group is committed to providing our shareholders with information as soon as it is available. Therefore, we are providing our preliminary unit statistics as soon as possible after quarter's end,” shared Interim Chief Executive Officer Jamie Pirrello.
“During the fourth quarter, we saw continued growth in net new orders and closings. Our net new orders were up 19.4% year-over-year due to a concerted effort to move completed inventory,” stated Mr. Pirrello. “Our focus is on selling homes before they are completed, reducing inventory holding costs and improving inventory turns.”
Jack Micenko, President of the Company, continued, “The decrease in starts is a direct result of our major initiative to introduce redesigned house plans that are more competitive and are more aligned with current consumer needs and desires. We slowed starts in the fourth quarter while we finalized our plan refresh. We have over 20 redesigned home plans that were moved into permitting on November 1st, with construction starting in December. This is the first redesign effort in many years, and we are excited by the market’s initial reaction.”
Keith Feldman, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, stated, “The fourth quarter also saw continued year-over-year growth in closings of 7.0%. Construction quality and fast cycle times have always been a major strength of the Company. Getting homes sold quickly so they can close upon completion is a major push for the Company in 2025.”
1 Backlog inventory consists of homes that are under a sales contract but have not closed. Backlog may be impacted by customer cancellations.
2 Spec inventory includes 17 model homes (6 homes under construction, 11 finished homes) for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 31 model homes (15 homes under construction, 16 finished homes) for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Shelton Twine, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, stated, “While it is a competitive market, we are seeing strong demand for homes. Our incentives and mortgage buydowns, while expensive, continues to drive sales volume. Our focus is on out-competing the competition.”
“We expect 2025 to be a transformational year for United Homes Group as we take full advantage of the strong market dynamics in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia, with continued employment growth, significant in-migration, and some of the most affordable home prices in some of the most desirable markets in the country,” Mr. Pirrello concluded.
About United Homes Group, Inc.
The Company is a publicly traded residential builder headquartered in Columbia, SC. The Company focuses on southeastern markets with active communities in South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia.
The Company employs a land-light operating strategy with a focus on the design, construction and sale of entry-level, first move-up and second move-up single-family houses. The Company principally builds detached single-family houses, and, to a lesser extent, attached single-family houses, including duplex houses and town houses. The Company seeks to operate its homebuilding business in high-growth markets, with substantial in-migrations and employment growth.
Under its land-light lot operating strategy, the Company controls its supply of finished building lots through lot option contracts with third parties, related parties, and land bank partners, which provide the Company with the right to purchase finished lots after they have been developed by the applicable third party or related party. This land-light operating strategy provides the Company with the ability to amass a pipeline of lots without the same risks associated with acquiring and developing raw land.
As the Company reviews potential geographic markets into which it could expand its homebuilding business, it intends to focus on selecting markets with positive population and employment growth trends, favorable migration patterns, attractive housing affordability, low state and local income taxes, and desirable lifestyle and weather characteristics.
