Builder Capital and 400 Capital Management Close $400mm Land Banking Arrangement with Dream Finders Homes

Builder Capital (“Builder Capital”) and 400 Capital Management LLC (“400CM”) announced today the closing of a land banking arrangement with Dream Finders Homes (NYSE: DFH), acquiring over 4,000 residential home sites in Charleston, SC, Greenville, SC, and Nashville, TN. The $412mm transaction occurred in connection with DFH’s acquisition of the core homebuilding assets of Cresent Homes and will enhance DFH’s ability to deliver affordable housing products to these supply-constrained markets.

The acquired home sites, spanning over 25 active selling communities, will ultimately serve entry-level, as well as first and second time move-up homebuyers with finished home price points starting in the low-$300,000s.

“We are pleased to execute this transaction and acquire a great portfolio of home sites at significant scale,” said Bill Southworth, managing partner at Builder Capital. “This transaction shows our ability to meet the needs of our homebuilder partners, in this case a repeat customer.”

“With the closing of this transaction, our strategic partnership with Builder Capital has grown to over 11,250 lots of inventory and over $1.4 billion of total project cost,” said Chris Schiavone, Head of Private Credit Strategies at 400CM. “Builder Capital and 400 Capital have positioned themselves as leading providers of acquisition and development capital solutions to the residential housing market as evidenced by this large and important transaction.”

“The housing market is competitive and having strong partners allows us to be nimble and make better strategic decisions,” said Patrick Zalupski, CEO and Founder of Dream Finders Homes. “This transaction is a reflection of the strength of our partnerships and we look forward to exploring future opportunities together.”
