Points to note
The housing market is likely to continue facing headwinds from a challenging macroeconomic environment. As seen over the past few quarters, while there is strong demand for housing, affordability continues to be hindered by inflation and interest rates. There is also a shortage in supply of homes due to underproduction. As a result, consumers are reluctant to purchase new homes. At the same time, prices of homes and rents for apartments have witnessed a drop.
Homebuilders have been offering various incentives to help with affordability and drive home sales. This has put pressure on average sales price and margins. In Q1, Lennar saw new orders increase by 1% and home deliveries increase by 6% while average sales price dipped 1%. Gross margins on home sales were 18.7% compared to 21.8% last year.
For the second quarter of 2025, Lennar has guided for new orders of 22,500-23,500 and deliveries of 19,500-20,500. Average sales price is estimated to range between $390,000-400,000. Gross margin on home sales is expected to be approx. 18%.
