Richmond American grew with the housing boom of the early 2000s, but began contracting as the market fell off after 2007. The firm reported closing only 2,000 home sales in the first quarter of 2008, compared with 3,200 in the same period the previous year. The average selling price of a home in 2007 was $337,000, compared to $354,000 in 2006.
Richmond American currently operates 260 housing communities in 13 states. The company left the Texas homebuilding market in 2007.
Despite its losses, Richmond American has a strategy in place for an eventual rebound after the downturn. The company has maintained a strong cash position and kept its land supply low, while reducing labor costs. The firm's current inventory of land is is fully developed and will not incur expenses before new building commences.
